You’re right, my bad. They are stealing that amount from each creator, in fact.

Ya know, if you assume each one of those is a person who would otherwise pay $100 a month for all the streaming services, then they are costing the streaming services about $259,200,000,000,000 each year. /s

Just another reason to grow weed with solar.

A bit of both for small decisions. I’d trust it with little things and for more important stuff it could work for the trick where you flip a coin and figure out which thing you actually wanted by gauging your reaction to the result.

Nvm the hyperlink had but and I didn’t see.

Server

It’s down for me.

Are you accusing me of excusing hypocrisy or crimes against humanity? (I’m guessing not the latter and also legitimately asking)

I feel like one of the more important things to take away from this is the wildly different degrees to which various students use ai. Yes, 90% may use it, but there is a huge difference between “check following paper for grammar errors: …” and “write me a paper on the ethics of generative AI,” though an argument could be made that both are cheating. But there are things like “explain Taylor series to me in an intuitive way.” Like someone else here pointed out, a 1-2 minute conversation would be a very easy way for professors to find people who cheated. There seems to be a more common view (I see it a LOT on Lemmy) that all AI is completely evil and anything with a neural network is made by Satan. Nuance exists.

An interesting way that I don’t know of being implemented is a donation system where you donate to a feature request / issue and whoever implements / patches it gets it, and a “tax” so that some percentage of every donation can go to maintenance, server costs, etc.

Let’s talk about privacy, just not any private operating systems because there’s a sub for that, or laws that threaten privacy because there’s a sub for that, or any corporations that try to take away people’s privacy because there’s a sub for that, or our opinions on the concept of privacy because there’s a sub for that so… privacy is, uh, not having people see what you’re doing kinda.

I use airvpn with an always on server setup, port forwarding, and constant seeding. If you’re okay with manually using a wireguard or openvpn client instead of an airvpn specific client it works great.

Edit Plus, they have a progressive pricing thing that lets you buy a few days for like 2€ just to test stuff.

Eh, I sometimes spin up a temporary docker container for some nonsense on a separate computer. I usually just go for it after checking no one is on and backing up necessary data.

If you’re just worried about people you live with and passive scan type stuff I’d do a LUKS flash drive and a txt file. If you are worried about more active stuff from 3 letters then I still think digital is going to be the best bet, but you’d better use qubes or even dedicate an airgapped computer with an encrypted drive but even that is iffy for a serious anti gov threat model.

Fmdlocator. It can auto reply a text with location to whitelisted contacts.

Nice

My opinion generally aligns with those who are saying to talk with them so they have a better understanding and don’t try to be overly strict with parental controls and such.

What I do want to add and don’t see in other comments is that if you want tracking software, you can set up fmd locator. It uses contact whitelisting so if they get a specific text from a whitelisted contact it will automatically text back their location. It isn’t for the use case of constant tracking to see if they’re sneaking out or whatever but if you want something that’s more trust based location sharing.

I use the grapheneos pin fingerprint combo with a longer password if that fails or bfu.
