I do think Proton gets a little too much credit.
Why? Valve has been sponsoring all these projects for a really long time. While wine existed before that, it wouldn’t be anywhere near the shape thats its currently in because gaming was not its main focus. There have been loads of gaming bugs and sharp edges that have been around wine for a long time until Valve put in the money and devs to fix them.
And nzb360
Also if anyone else wrote it, there would be so much savaging of weasel words.
They brag that they don’t retain this data, so when governments request historical data they don’t have it.
They don’t say that they don’t provide it for anyone else to retain, so if they are given the to and from to process the message, and provide this to the CIA to retain then all of this security would be useless but would also fulfill all of the claims here.
No.
We have been exploring techniques to further reduce the amount of information that is accessible to the service, and the latest beta release includes changes designed to move Signal incrementally closer to the goal of hiding another piece of metadata: who is messaging whom.
They haven’t hidden it yet. It’s a goal.
They are referring to message metadata.
Even if they don’t show the content of messages, if they can show that phone number A is sending messages and getting replies to number B then that’s all the government needs.
For the purpose of operating our Services, you agree to our data practices as described in our Privacy Policy, as well as the transfer of your encrypted information and metadata to the United States and other countries where we have or use facilities, service providers or partners.
They store metadata, which is distinct from encrypted data.
Are you saying sealed sender is a lie?
https://signal.org/blog/sealed-sender/
When you send a traditional piece of physical mail, the outside of the package typically includes the address of both the sender and the recipient. The same basic components are present in a Signal message. The service can’t “see into” the encrypted package contents, but it uses the information written on the outside of the package to facilitate asynchronous message delivery between users.
They have a list of encrypted messages, who it’s from and who it’s to, based upon the sealed sender description. If you are using phone numbers then you are not anonymous, and a TLA agency can search known bad numbers even if Signal does not try to build that graph.
The reviews said that it was a better card than the other brand.
Just imagine how bad those must have been!
They don’t know they’ve been ripped off.
Do either of them work on the Steam Deck yet?
Last time I tried, last year I think, I couldn’t get the controller to work correctly.
And Gnome is probably not for you.
They make a desktop which is opinionated, and in some ways pushes things forwards. For example it is nice to not have to always deal with the awful Start button metaphor.
On the others it can be a constraint. Only wanting to support the modern icon tray lead to years of having to use an extension for all the software that didn’t.
And that’s fine. That’s why we have KDE and XFCE.
I personally much prefer the Gnome flow which gets out my way, and find KDE to feel much more archaic. I don’t want docks and bars, I don’t want the desktop to be more than a place to hold my applications.
What do you mean “centered”? The top bar is top, and the clock is centered.
Ha, you think that the backups even arrive to replace/repair? They’ll break down in transit!
That would be amazing. Cybertruck cops? They’ll be letting everyone go when the trucks breaks down.
Thats fine if it works for you.
My comment on all of this was purely that Bitwarden password was a single point of failure. Now we can shift that single point of failure somewhere else!
I’m not sure what the solution is.
Find a new single point of failure?
They don’t, but by providing a “classic tier” they get to kill anyone’s argument against it by saying “just don’t get it”, until they then discontinue the “classic tier” due to a “lack of demand”, and force Office users to have AI and pay for it too.
However all they appear to advocate for, are the things that historically we have done, and are mentioned in the article.
Veganic Farming? Its just Vegans trying to hijack a normal process of crop rotation and cover cropping so they can make some snide remark that apparently it is animal feed that’s the problem.
I’m running Linux for my couch based gaming and the experience is awesome. Much better than Windows ever was.
What makes you think that Linux is holding Linux back? The UI can be completely customised which makes Steam OS wonderful to use while Microsoft completely ban any customised interface out of the box.
Windows is only popular through inertia.
Because DirectX is more than a graphics API.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/DirectX
A fair amount of what used to make DirectX an everything API has been deprecated, but if you are already using Windows stuff for networking and audio, then you may as well use the graphics APIs too.
