This German alternative is pretty good, although I remember them being a bit cheaper a few years ago…

sanpo@sopuli.xyzto Explain Like I'm Five@lemmy.world•What are the privacy concerns for using Discord?English25·14 days agoIt’s easy to think that Discord isn’t reading your messages or listening to your calls, because the utilize End to End Encryption.
It’s easy to think they’re reading your messages, because they don’t use E2E (only calls use it).
They admit that right in the link you sent.They also keep scanning your computer for running processes with no way to disable it (for game detection).
tl;dr is if you care about privacy, do not use Discord, or at least not for anything more serious than sending memes.

sanpo@sopuli.xyzto linuxmemes@lemmy.world•"Do this simple hack to make this command usable, then another hack to fix the problem your hack does"291·15 days agoThat’s what this answer actually suggests, but apparently typing “journalctl” is tedious, so let’s instead break everything for no good reason and blame systemd.

sanpo@sopuli.xyzto You can't park there, mate@feddit.uk•You couldn't park there mates! Bollards always win19·18 days agoPretty sure the guy just got lucky with the tires, I don’t see what meaningful data you could get from a test like this.
Also, people breaking the cars on the bollards this exact way somehow isn’t exactly uncommon.
sanpo@sopuli.xyzto Gaming@lemmy.zip•Epic reduce their cut to 0% for the first $1 million in revenue for devs on the Epic Games StoreEnglish6·19 days agoI’d love to give developers a bigger cut.
Sure, but this just gives the publisher a bigger cut, developers and gamers will see absolutely no difference, as usual.
I always forget they ever made DVDs, I don’t think they ever did that outside of USA.
No, the last time everyone did that Netflix was created, which has nearly killed the piracy for most people.
We’re just going back to the basics.

sanpo@sopuli.xyzto Buy European@feddit.uk•The recyclable made in Germany USB cable was tested11·1 month agoGreat! I’ve seen these cables recommended here so often (despite them not being very good) I was beginning to think someone’s paid to advertise them…

That doesn’t really fit when you realize these are USB 2.0 without e-markers.
In other words: below average specs for way above average prices.
3A charging is bare minimum for USB-C, not “fast”.These are headed for the trash as soon as the user needs anything above bare minimum.
No, some asshole generated a fake cease and desist letter from Ghibli to try to start some drama.
Even tried to act like some kind of genAI martyr ready to sacrifice himself for the good of AI…

Looks more like a PayPal alternative.
Simple auth was honestly one of the upsides for me.
Plex claims to have an offline mode, but I could never got it to work, for some reason.
And I got pissed off one too many times when my Internet went down and I couldn’t watch anything from the NAS a few meters away…
What’s better, exactly?
I switched years ago from Plex to Jellyfin, and while the UI wasn’t quite as nice, everything else is better.
And I don’t have to pay to use HW transcoding on my own hardware…
sanpo@sopuli.xyzto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How would "banning encryption" even work in practise?2·2 months agoMan, deep packet inspection is some crazy stuff.
Good implementation can identify the type of traffic within seconds with scarily good accuracy.
Quite a few countries actually implement this in their national ISP’s infrastructure to block VPNs, so the citizens can’t access non-approved websites.
sanpo@sopuli.xyzto Technology@lemmy.world•Brother Says It Was Falsely Accused Of Bricking Printers That Use Cheaper Third-Party Ink CartridgesEnglish101·2 months ago$3 ink from a bodega
That’s actually a fair price for 3rd party replacement.
I used to work at a computer shop, and people only ever bought the cheapest available cartridges.
We also used to do printer repair, do you know how many printers had to come in because of shitty ink?
The answer is zero.And anyway, in your example the printer manufacturer has no business tracking your ink usage, whether it’s by spying on you and phoning home, or recording this info in the printer’s memory.
People being excited about getting spam from a scammer.
What a time to be alive…
Really? As a car, the brand is the least of its issues.
There’s a reason that car is not legal in a lot of countries.
