Clairvoidance

That’s a nice rice even, what the hey, kinda makes me wanna fuck around in wms again

My parents had some of the ancient ubuntu (or ubuntu based?) distros that they let me play with, I myself tried Manjaro in 2017 for a month (very scuffed back then), and then full Arch Linux since March or Apr 2021

Haven’t bothered switching since, but if I did, I’m lightly curious on the NixOS hype. Why yes, I just installed Arch Linux for the archbtw, but also it feels like it just works for me at this point (yknow, till the next fuckup akin to the grub2 fiasco)

Fair

Sorry, I don’t mean to say it’s unnecessary in the event of a breach, you’re absolutely correct there, I was just spitballing on the idea of encryptions without self-destruct buttons in majority non I-am-highly-targeted-by-CIA scenarios, how vigilant you’d have to be. With house warrants for instance, I was like “well, as the likelihood of them going being able to decrypt increases you should be on the look-out for alternative methods or harder encryption yeah”

I was by no means saying this is an ‘after breach’ scenario. Modern solutions don’t save you retroactively, that wasn’t the point.

Well Mullvad used to have port-forwarding, either it was a pain to maintain or it was abused

Modern solutions for modern problems, ie, update as needed (and algorithms potentially invented)

Alternatively hide it under the floorboards, with a nail over it and a hammer nearby as needed

Yep, if they can control thought patterns, they can control what you do, and then they can control what you want

The end result being “well why wouldn’t I want ads that show me personalized ads? I’m likely to give more of a shit”, not knowing that you’re signing yourself up for potentially even limiting your nuances Surveillance Capitalism style
