My 2￠:

David Allen's GTD for the overarching structure and routine.

Rainer König's Getting Yourself Organized with Org-mode for application within Org-mode.

YMMV

Would you happen to have a cite supporting the burden of proof is on the defendant to prove their statements weren't defamatory? I'm not familiar with that.

Here's a map showing the locations of this corporation's existing readers: DeFlock.me

It's operated by a group of privacy advocates and educators to spread awareness. Flock tried to use a bogus trademark claim to interfere with the project.

Balance:

a) damage done by another Trump presidency

vs

b) damage done by demonstrating to the ruling class that you'll give them whatever they want so long as you genuinely fear one of the candidates

Tough call. I wish each and every one of you who has a say in this clairvoyance beyond mine.

There's something sad about society losing a such a unique source of knowledge, but hopefully we've collectively learned something about the dangers of trusting proprietary solutions.

Anyone found a reliable way to search across Lemmy instances they can share?

After the changes to their TOS I lost any trust I had in Proton

Proton AG lost me as a customer the minute they backdoored a binding arbitration clause into their TOS last year.

The difficulty of proving damages in breach of privacy cases combined with generally weak privacy legislation globally means the threat of a class action often serves as one of the only practical deterrents to abuses of power by corporations controlling sensitive personal information. By changing its terms of service, Proton essentially immunized itself from suffering any significant penalty in the event its negligence leads to a mass breach of privacy of its users.

Tactics like the use of binding arbitration clauses are hallmarks of inherently untrustworthy corporations.

Highly recommend pairing this with David Allen's GTD and Rainer König's excellent course Getting yourself organized with Org-mode

Fairy Creek also received surprisingly little MSM media coverage despite being reportedly Canada's largest civil disobedience campaign in almost 20 years.

While it could be argued that this under-reporting could be attributed to the RCMP's heavy handed treatment of journalists at the site, it doesn't appear that any of the country's well funded MSM joined the court challenge to the RCMP's restricting of media access.

Anyone care to share their thoughts on proper netiquette when posting to a Peertube instance?

Specifically I'd be interested to learn if it's only considered appropriate for those contributing to the network (either by hosting a server or contributing financially) to post or if the uploading of original work is itself is considered a contribution.

Service is fine, but GNU/Linux support needs improvement.

They just changed their TOS to forbid paying customers from seeking any form of judicial remedy, so you can guess the direction they're headed.

Needless to say I won't be renewing.

As many others have pointed out Arkenfox is a great way to harden Firefox that saves much of the effort of manually editing about:config

Because I didn't see one already here's a link to an install tutorial for Arkenfox in case it helps anyone to get started.

I've come to realize that semantics are vastly more important than many of us realize.

Saying GNU/Linux isn't about giving credit to the GNU Project so much as it is about spreading the message that GNU represents. GNU represents a cooperative, collaborative philosophy diametrically opposed to the oppressive, exploitative capitalist ideals championed by today's ruling class. By using "GNU" we remind users that the freedom we enjoy with our computing today was made possible, not by a kernel, but by the ideals of community and camaraderie embedded into our software by way of the GPL.

I don't see anything antithetical about anyone wanting to share their work while at the same time wanting to be credited for it. On the contrary, most copyright regimes have specific carve outs for moral rights such as attribution. Even the most liberal of the creative commons license options includes an attribution requirement. That said, it isn't just within your right to rename things you fork, it may be a requirement. For reference just think back to the controversy surrounding IceWeasel.

While I haven't ordered from them personally, ThinkPenguin's well respected by the community.

They've been around for about 15 years and have a focus on freedom respecting tech, which is why they work closely with the FSF.

Does anyone know how much the ability to upgrade a Framework machine in the future depends on the company?

Are third parties free to manufacture compatible parts?
