    Lemmy is a tech literate echo chamber

  • Oh god that's horrifying.

    • Lately, a great many people who used to say they didn't care about privacy because they had nothing to hide must be realizing what a flawed conclusion that was.

  • Yep it's frustrating. The convenience argument doesn't hold true anymore either. There was once a time where encrypted messaging services and self-hosted solutions were much trickier to on-board. That's not the case anymore and even with the ability to just download and launch some software that does all this for you people still choose oppressive and unsafe technologies / providers.

  • Yep, inter-socially policed techno fascism is here to stay. I haven't had a cellphone for 2 years. The amount of objective problems this causes in my life is somewhere between negligible to none. The amount of social problems this causes me is endless - people become personally offended that they can't demand to chat with me at their liberty.

    • Could one legally get a hold of those bank bill dye security dye packs, dye your own legally obtained cash with it, and spend it places? Just to make people suspect you're secretly a bank robber.

    Jump

  • I'm unsure whether people would assume you had robbed a bank, I think this would depend largely on your character / build. I know for a fact that if I did this, no one in my life would assume or think for a second that I had done that.

    Would this be legal? Is there anything preventing you from dying currency, if there is no intention or act of counterfeiting?

    Depends where you are but in a large number of countries it's illegal to deface currency. (This doesn't change the fact that people do deface it and I've never heard of anyone getting in trouble for it).

    Shop owner's can also say no if your notes are too busted, I've had this happen before trying to purchase with bills which have a tear.

    • This Tiny Radio Lets Me Send Texts Without Wi-Fi or Cell Service

  • Man I've been seeing so much about these over the last few weeks, I'd love to get my hands on one

    • Microsoft admits it would have to let Trump spy on EU data if demanded

    Jump

  • And I'm assuming anywhere else that microsoft operates (the entire world) would be the same too, no? I don't know why this rhetoric would be specific to the EU.

    • As governments around the world are set to make the Internet more restrictive and privacy-invading, we need a solution

    Jump

  • Woah thats insane, thanks for the summary. The stuff I had been reading about it was a bit dense for me as someone with 0 background in radio.

    Maybe I'll get one and become a node

  • Two days from now there's a seminar happening in the capital city of my country on a technology called mesh/meshtastic(?). They claim to have found a way to send messages in blackout conditions.

    I'ts difficult to find resources but here's a blogpost about it: https://blog.liamcottle.com/2024/05/01/getting-started-with-meshtastic

    Not saying this is our solution, but I think these sorts of ideas and re-imaginings are what we ought to be in the pursuit of right now.
