This means space colonization. Here is the problem: 1) either we meet sooner or later aliens whom we don't whether they are dangerous and hostile 2) we discover we live in a simulation but still every simulation has its limits ( like maps in the games )

That's why the second partition ( I'm case when you have 2 truly hidden and for the plausibility denial one ) should have some incriminating data as well like porn with lesser fines. It shouldn't be blank slate windows. I mean it should be believable to be "hidden" partition

I agree with you. The idea of tox was great, unfortunately implementation was not that much. Indeed imo loss for messanger apps / protos ecosystem

I tried to use tox cli client and it's barely usable. Gui clients just half baked barely products. Adding to the piling bad reputation of the development team ( some fraud, adding backdoor ip leaks ) I think it's enough to bury tox

The email plugins for various clients make it easy to mistakenly think you’re sending an encrypted email.

Ok. Now I know what's the issue but this is not the problem with gpg. Nah, gpg integration with thunderbird is so flawless that it clearly says when it's encrypting when not. Also you can see the raw email content and then you see whether it's plaintext or ciphertext. I'm using thunderbird with gpg very often so I know how it works nicely with gpg

clunky

Thunderbird + kleopatra? K-9 + OpenKeyChain ( android )? Where did you have issues?

And also the same who wrote the bundes trojaner :-) ( I know it's most likely the German intelligence but still funny )

Well, they still can't underfund gnu privacy guard :-) It's pretty much already finished product and working pretty well.

Because people cannot block darn windows updates. Its a real malware only allowed by law

We can, closed communities with some effort to enter the group. I pretty much ditched most main stream social media and use what it used to be mailing lists and discord servers. It's not about technology. Internet and access used to be simply exclusive and we have to create exclusive channels to communicate about f.e. arts, history, technology or even occult where there is no "free riders" with no knowledge. That's what I mean and this may happen imo. Quality over quantity

That's actually a good news. Maybe we're able to revert the internet to the times before the Eternal September happened

I think it's better to present a valid point against somebody's statement than straight down voting without giving a reason "just because don't like him". I think it would create positive discussion environment in lemmy. We are here after all to exchange ideas on lemmy. Aren't we?

Yes, exactly my thoughts on this. Downvoting is only a measure of crowd censorship based on opinion popularity. If you see some trolls, just block them but don't hide their posts for other ones who may think on that person views otherwise

It's vice versa. In the old good times there was a saying "don't feed the troll". Just block him. Downvoting is just a cheap solution for people who cannot justify their argument. Btw, I love to read downvoted comments which are by default 'hidden'. Most of them are trash but sometimes it's a valid point but not the very popular one

Ok

Exactly, if you see troll, just block him and declare "damnatio memoriae". It works exactly like this in fms usenet like forum for old freenet / hyphanet. You can even subscribe block / allow lists ( -100 to 100 weight lists ). In my opinion, it's very good mechanism. One of the best I ever saw

It won't. You can block him it you don't to answer his questions. Anonymity creates treacherous and malicious people who know that they don't need to justify their actions. Before you start saying about stalking and doxxing know that I'm for using pseudonyms.

I am fan of Swiss Appenzeln Innerrhoden voting system. In public and with hands up. It's supporting the civic courage values. It's easy to ostracize people for no reason when you're anonymous

Yes, absolutely. I am for pseudonyms but transparency. I would be very keen on having colors of the usernames to signify how old the username is. Also having a possibility to load block lists from files ( like github ) to allow sharing the block lists of the trolls

If you interpreted my last comment that I called you communist ( which I didn't intend ), I'm sorry that wasnt my intention. However, in my home country we say that best way to finish a meeting or party is to start politics. That's why I'm allergic to politics because I know that most people even don't try to argue, they only repeat "their opinions" same one form or another and call themselves names and labels. People have too far opinions to reconcile and I'm fine with this
