As others have said, it’s my daily driver. I like the vertical tabs, sessions, and pinned tabs. I saw someone mention you can’t watch TV or Movies through it, but I haven’t had issues with any of the main streaming sites, or the more unconventional free sites that exist, but yeah you will need to make adjustments for it to match LibreWolf privacy-wise

I could go for like <5 in to be honest.
I just want them to be smaller.
Sceptre still makes TVs that are just that, no underlying smart OS

Technology@lemmy.world•Google is intentionally throttling YouTube videos, slowing down users with ad blockersEnglish
2·9 months agoI’m fine with reasonable ads. Plex Live TV has ads that don’t always get caught by NextDNS for me and it’s always some local business and like 30 seconds, NBD it’s a free service and needs to operate somehow and I’m not aware of any major privacy breaches from Plex. I feel the same way about YT video sponsor segments, they don’t always get caught by ReVanced, also, NBD the creator also needs to get paid for their work.
Also multiple SD cards, swapping out frequently so even if they grash the camera you still have something.
Honestly, it would be kind of funny that your phone calls emergency services when you get pulled over and you don’t want them to force you to unlock your phone, having a 911 operator recording the entire interaction’s audio.
Side note, leave the burner in a Faraday bag when it’s going to be near your daily driver.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Why does Signal want a phone number to register if it's supposedly privacy first?
17·10 months agoThe only thing I’ll tack onto this is that with the introduction of Signal usernames, you still have to give Signal your number to verify that at least on some level, you probably are a real person. As someone with 5 different phone numbers, probably doesn’t stop spam as much as they’d hoped, but more than they feared, but at least now you don’t have to give that Craigslist guy who uses Signal your phone number, just your username. Is that the best method? I dunno, but but it is something.

Technology@lemmy.world•Framework’s first desktop is a strange—but unique—mini ITX gaming PCEnglish
4·1 year agoThis is where I’m at. The Framework guy was talking about how very few companies are using this AMD deal because the R&D to add it to existing models wasn’t very viable, you really only have the Asus Z13 so I feel like being ahead of the game there will be a benefit in the long run as far as their relationship with AMD. Plus they’re also doing a 12-in laptop now as well, so it’s not like they committed all their resources to this.

0·1 year agoNot really a work around, but you could get a VOIP number from MySudo or Hushed or a similar service and use that to sign up for Signal. Might at least be more private if you go about it with like a prepaid card and temp email or something.
I haven’t looked into them really at all, but their phone app I would consider a data connection, also how is it updating that? Just Bluetooth? Maybe they have that info, like I said, I haven’t looked into them much yet.
