I’ve long held that my phone is a single point of failure and that I should be able to function without it. So I don’t do banking on my phone, I still carry a wallet even if I do have Apple Pay and I will certainly carry physical identification until I’m legally unable to.

Turn off broadcast of the SSID

Don’t do this. It provides zero security, and just reduces usability. Now you should call your SSID something non-identifiable. So instead of “$YourName Wifi” call it “pleasure chest” or something. Additionally do not set a ridiculous 64 character + special characters password, because again you are providing next to zero additional security, while hugely reducing usability.

Use a simple password scheme of 3-5 unrelated common words like from here: https://www.correcthorsebatterystaple.net/index.html for your wifi password.

I guess having a thick provisioned VM image on your laptop means that you are hiding something. Again if the evil government you are trying to hide something from doesn’t need reasonableness as a reason to detain you, then who cares? No matter what you do you are rolling the dice every time you interact with them.

Which is of course similar to the US today, so if I needed to hide something from them I’d make sure that once i’m legally compelled to give my password they at the very least wouldn’t have what they are looking for, since there is no way I could prove I didn’t have it anyway.

Beat what out of you? You already gave them a password that decrypts a specific file/volume/etc. If they want to beat you, they will beat you regardless of your possession of any encrypted materials.

They know it exist as a concept. They can’t prove that the specific decrypted message contains a super-secret encrypted message as well.

Did you know that potential attackers can pinpoint your location if they are in the same public place as you?

This really seems like complaining that a location enabled app that explicitly shares your location with other users is sharing your location with other users. That is 100% the purpose of the app to begin with!

It’s always been this way since super delegates were created. It was laid bare in 2016 when Hillary literally bought the DNC to ensure her coronation, there is no reason the DNC ever needs to change (after all what they do isn’t illegal) and liberals will not only accept it, but fully embrace it.

And of course as a subscriber to great man theory, there can be only one autocrat of any given country so there is no need for any other common identifier. Simply the double-plus ungood one should be sufficient for all time.

New Speak isn’t ever a solution.

I mean yea. They are on the same capitalist team, but the two camps are made up of the people riding coattails of their respective lord. Obama’s team, vs Clinton’s team. Harris was the counter-pick of the Clinton Team specifically for this situation.

Number 5 has been “adopted” by most of the mainstream Dems, but in the same way abortion is important to them. Here is Biden railing against “dark money.” https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4239009-exclusive-end-citizens-united-endorses-biden-in-2024/

I only bring it up because I’m pretty sure you could argue that Harris has already adopted, insufficiently, number 5. So you may want to be more concrete about what “adopting” those policies actually means.

Kamala is the Clintonite Establishment candidate though. Biden is tied to the Obama camp, though I assume Biden and Clinton are more cordial then Obama and Clinton, as much as Obama even cares about those past grudges anymore.

Full communism now.

I’m a network engineer and I run ipv6 natively in all of our datacenters. There are even a handful of end systems that have ipv6 native networking stacks with ipv4 sockets for our non-ipv6 compatible applications. IPv6 issues are basically self-inflicted at this point by companies that see their IT systems as cost centers, or by basilisk directors who’s knowledge stopped in the 90’s.

Well fortunately for her the will of the voters is the least important metric about who will become president, so she has a great shot!

The first 3 are why I can’t get any work done anymore. The last 3 I would absolutely love to have more time to do.

It’s actually a great game. But it’s Eurojank to the extereme. If you want a superior experience, play Gothic 2. But it’s still janky, just not as bad as Gothic 1. Gothic 3 I didn’t like at all.

I wasn’t able to get past the donate to Obama phase.

I assume this is just to get people use to the idea of algebra.
