The replacement battery you bought in 2017 was the last of the genuine stock for that 2012 Thinkpad model. Now it’s only poor quality aftermarket. Maybe just stick with the existing genuine battery – its 47 second runtime should be enough time for AC loss to trigger a custom script to make it hibernate.

LoL, blue shirt has no persistence. Anger and giving up gets you nowhere.

40% of OpenBSD installs lead to shark attacks. It’s their only standing security issue.

4·1 month agoWhittaker’s phrasing is ambiguous. Could be read as expressing one of a number of things:
- The paper/article is misleading and distracting from meaningful threats to privacy.
- That the original tweet is using misleading accusations to distract us from the article’s revelations of meaningful threats to privacy.
- That Appelbaum’s authorship of the research is an unwanted negative association which undermines the attention deserved by the threats documented in the paper which are misleadingly justified as necessary by eg. governments.
It’s difficult to know without a better understanding of Whittaker’s position on the various matters at hand, so I don’t know.

What ideally I’d like is some sort of good encrypted email […], which can achieve decent Android integration. Proton apps are pretty useless to that effect […]
Don’t need provider-specific apps if their services use standard protocols:
- IMAP: Fair Email or K-9 Mail(/Thunderbird)
- CalDAV: DAVx⁵
Open Food Network is worth a look.
Their repository is available.
Anyone can now provide that service. Why pay OpenAI when you can pay a different service who is cheaper or provides a service more aligned with your needs or ethics or legal requirements?
5·3 months ago- For incoming mail, on your server run a mail retrieval agent like fetchmail to fetch mail from the externally hosted mailbox into a maildir on your server.
- To serve that maildir to your clients, on your server run a mail delivery agent like the IMAP server Dovecot.
- To accept outgoing mail from your clients, on your server run something like Postfix with a
relayhostconfigured with the details of your externally hosted SMTP server.
There’s nothing unusual or tricky about any of this arrangement.
(I have never used their commercial offering).
Jitsi works really well, and the developers seem to have made an effort to have it work well on any platform, even mobile browsers and PSTN. I’ve always found it the lowest friction teleconferencing method for all types of users.
It’s self-hostable, integrates with SIP, and 8x8’s commercial offering mentions HIPAA, BAA and GDPR.
Flows nicely, but it’s an inaccurate collage of plot elements.
- Isildur lost the ring in a river.
- Déagol found the ring in a river.
- Sméagol killed Déagol for the ring.
- Sméagol (now Gollum) lost the ring in a cave.
- Bilbo, Frodo, Sam, Frodo, Gollum, 🌋?
Don’t do it. Alkalines are all shit now and will leak all over your electronics.
Get some decent NiMH.
You’re all still suckling at the opium teat of corporate media, whether via torrent or not.
