You can barely talk to someone at google if you’re a paying customer and try to call them. No way they’re calling you.

Without a Pihole I guess some kind of packet inspection?

Just the browser dev tools is plenty to figure out everything going on.

Hit F12 for dev tools, go to the network tab and that will show all the network requests being made on that page. You can also use the inspect tool to click on a specific ad and see the code that initiated it.

It’s kind of funny to me that Discord was (at least initially) more receptive to this than Signal was, it’s also strange that signal uses cloudflare at all when their whole thing is privacy.

There weren’t nearly as many gamers as there are today back when TS was the main software of choice either.

Plus because discord had chat rooms and video calls and stuff, it became popular for lots of groups outside of gaming.

Interesting, it sounds like the hospitals should return the devices and switch to something else. Would probably require a court case to force them to take it back.

It’s rather a lot with 12 docker containers to run, I wonder what the resource usage is like.

Voice only though, doesn’t really have chat rooms or streaming support.

That is bizarre, they initiated the ban so should have to provide evidence to uphold it.

I really think there needs to be some strict laws for game bans, like:

• Company must provide detailed proof of what triggered the ban, and for appeals the person that reviewed it, and what their credentials are to prove they have the knowledge to verify the ban was legitimate.

• Ban can only apply specifically to that game (ie; no global VAC bans with a marker on your profile on steam).

• Ban must be lifted immediately if the original trigger is no longer present (ie; Logitech software triggered it, and was removed).

Or just get rid of bans entirely and just have anti-cheat kick someone from the game every time something is detected instead.

The fact that you can get banned for a false positive on a game you paid money for, with no recourse other than a long court process with high risk, is kind of absurd.

You might be able to use the element zapper in uBlock Origin to remove the popup and overlay.

They have a 30 day refund policy, assuming you don’t pay with cash.

I bet it will still be stuffed to the gills with buying things using real money, and the grind will be intentionally miserable to force people to take the shortcut.

Panasonic provides the software for free for their cameras. Still only 720p but at least you’re not paying for it.

Generally no with a reputable email host.

Yep, you can register a domain through a company like namecheap or cloudflare. It’s about $10 a year.

Then you just need an email service that supports custom domains, mailbox.org is a good one. Change your DNS records on your domain control panel to point to the servers given to you by your email service, and that’s it.

Yes, but it also makes the experience worse for people that aren’t invested in the ecosystem because of privacy or similar reasons.

If I’m using an app that allows quotes, but my friend isn’t and wants to quote a post, they’re going to be annoyed.

Their keyboards are a great example, they’re often worse build quality with far less noise damping than one that’s half the price from some random keyboard company.

Feedly does a great job of that.

Email is already federated and can be end to end encrypted with various methods.
