Thanks For New Title … Going to party and hope to keep it

Damn, Firedragon looks cool. Shoutout to whoever designed the logos and chose the color schemes

[Kresimir]

I wouldn’t brag about that. Just sayin’…

[nepti]

The fact that you of all people suddenly don’t know how to have fun - that amuses me

@Kresimir: Says someone who has an empty github account

You are mistaken, I don’t have a Github account. Why would I share my source code with Micro$oft?

@nepti

and was banned from the endeavour forum.

It’s their loss.

[nepti]

My mistake, I mean gitlab. I have corrected it

[keybreak]

It’s not empty though, he has snek game and many other useful things in there

@nepti

If you think that my recreational GitLab page does not contain enough useful things, you should consider paying me, so I can dedicate more time to coding silly projects.

Linux & Tech news

You’re wrong here it’s the most vital and not minor part actually, because it collects the most important thing - your actual identification: Once you insert SIM card - you’re forever linked your device IMEI / IMSI unique numbers to your actual government ID. Government already knows your ID and exactly who you are and likely everything about your personal life (because all the usual privacy violators share all the data with 3rd parties for cash), so by combining it with geolocation they’…

Wait. If one can use these generic, off the counter SIM cards, which have no identification this is false.

Of course, with your contract based SIM you can be ID’d.

There is also something callled eSim . It should be like a regular sim, soldered to the MOBO. What is certain, this phone will be forver ID’d to its eSim.

I personally hate the echo chamber that ads can create. Like info distortion. That’s why I havent used Google search for ~3 years. To be honest, DuckDuckGo was simply better search engine in many cases, It was easier to read less distractions. No auto suggest every where.

In this sense, getting rid of the Ads ids is useful.

In most countries it’s a big if…
In some it’s like buying a bread though

Still, even that can be burned unless you’ll be super-careful.
If you want to be anonymous (which is VERY hard, and not needed for most people) - only real way to avoid any SIM leaking + linking to further data from phone is to physically separate them by using exclusively Wi-FI, for instance portable Wi-FI modem, once you insert SIM there and connect to device via Wi-Fi - SIM won’t know anything about you, except IMEI of portable Wi-Fi modem, and absolutely nothing about your phone (if all your traffic is encrypted via Tor or something).

I believe it’s even worse than normal SIM, because it can’t be “deactivated” as far as i know.

Me too, it’s also very funny to see sometimes what “default” search assumes of you

I would like to recommend this lecture to you. It is available in German, English and French.

I think @Ankur has wholly cut off from social media…
He has not seen the messages that I sent five days back.

[SGS]

Yes he has, he’s busy and will get back involved when he can spare more time for the forum and Hyprland.

Hey… I have a question for the peeps here. As an intern am I supposed to be handling implementation of requirements from SRS, performing benchmarks and then holding meetings with the client about the feasibility of their requirements and advising them what they can change…?

I mean I certainly am not complaining I got to learn a ton of stuff like CANoe, UART, IPC, etc, etc… but I had seen from memes and stuff that interns are kept to fetch coffee and just laze around all day.

If only they could do something about the stipend too… They are literally taxing the peanuts I am getting I earn 2-3x below the tax bracket and I still have 10% TDS on my stipend. and why on earth is the tax system soo dang hard. I am trying to learn how to file ITR and every dang site says I need to “absolutely” fill some different form.

I thought this kinda of stuff would be where chatgpt shines but it seems even chatgpt struggles with tax…

[nepti]

Welcome to the real world

Umm something’s not right, shouldn’t there be a swimming pool before being out in the open ocean.

jokes aside I wish I could punch and strangle the gov to get my money back. They might be peanuts but they are my peanuts. I wanna hoard them all.

[nepti]

If you learn more as an intern than getting coffee, then this is your swimming pool
Keep it up. I wish you good luck

an American concerned about the environment? ROFL
Where was that concern when you invaded other countries to steal their natural resources?
Where were you on September 11? thank Bush for the shit he did…
