I also haven’t had issues with my self-hosted Nextcloud, DAVx, and Fossify Calendar. Has worked without hiccups for me.

If only the user has the key then there’s no real concern with the data being handed over

Sure, but tracking period data can be very helpful for people. For a threat model of abortion criminalisation (or maybe trans healthcare criminalisation with treatments stopping periods, or really any kind of restrictions on medical autonomy), encryption at rest of locally stored period data is perfectly sufficient. They are not going to send military intelligence agencies after a random person having an abortion. It is actually a relatively low threat model, like equivalent to buying drugs online or something like that.

I wonder how many average users would be bothered to export their period database and transfer to a new phone every time they get a new phone. I do that when I get a new phone (not often, I use my phones till they break/are literally unusable and unfixable), but I’ve had real trouble getting other people to do these kinds of things.

Even if they owned the whole LF, the Linux Foundation does not develop systemd lol

How is that inconsiderate? That’s just informal

(Using “bi” to mean “bisexual”, I mean, not “business intelligence” lol)

Idk about other sources, but I get my apk directly from GitHub via Obtainium, and my app recently changed from K-9 Mail to Thunderbird. Icon, app name, and app theming changed. This has been in the works for a while but seems like they’re officially switched the apk.

No worries, was just confused lol

I… never said it only synced with Nextcloud? Or are you just providing additional information for people?

Recently started using this synced with my Nextcloud. Really happy with it, only complaint is the fact that I can’t remove their “Regular event” calendar

Fuuuuck there goes my plan to get this monkey to write Hamlet within the lifetime of the universe…

Well “AI” is a broad category. Usually used to refer to GenAI, so:

• Creating quick stand-in art for a game before I’ve got proper sprites for it (not because “muh art theft”, just because the AI art I’ve generated does not look very good to me)

• Summarising articles, like you said so I can decide if I want to read them in full

• Formatting text I’ve copied from pdfs

• More complex searches that require comprehension of grammar and natural language syntax. Any answer I get to these I then fact check using search terms a classical search engine can understand.

I read a paper a while back that found that people who used AI assistants for coding, who only used the assistants to generate small functions where the prompt already included the function declaration and the programmer already knew how the function should be written but just wanted to save time, in these cases the use of an AI assistant did not negatively impact the “correctness” of the produced code. So I guess I might one day use an AI coding assistant like that, but thus far I’ve never felt the need to use AI-generated code.

Yeah. I use it for ctrl, shift, enter, etc.

Anna’s Archive has some torrents they ask people to seed. I’m seeding a smaller one right now. You can look into that if you want to help out—nobody’s expected to mirror the entire archive!

It’s not paranoid to complain about the unnecessity of javascript when all you want to do is read a public text post on a social media platform. I have javascript disabled on some browsers, and it’s annoying to have to whitelist a site that really shouldn’t need it.

idk about “favourite”, but the ones I use, which are all perfectly adequate for my needs: LibreWolf on desktop, Mull and/or Vanadium on mobile, DDG

If they were publicising those videos that sounds illegal to me. If I printed off a copyrighted book for my own personal use, that would be legal. If I started distributing my own reprints of a copyrighted book without permission, the copyright holder could go after me. The businesses can hold copyrighted material without distributing them and not be in breach of the law.
