how would they prevent me using a chat app they can’t look into?
I dont think they can, unless they get android and iOS to do this os wide. The bigger problem is: will the public care enough to use such a messenger? Will they do it when it becomes illegal to use such a messenger? If not, mass surveillance is inevitable and those sidestepping it for important privacy reasons are easily detectable making them easy targets.
I dont have a problem with systemd. I have a problem with people claiming systemd doesn’t have a massive non-modular blob of code at it’s core. There is no need to misrepresent what systemd is to deflect systemd critics.
Again, please read what I am writing. I don’t care about the disk space. And I don’t have a problem with systemd itself.
As I said: I didn’t mean massive in the sense of “disk space is an expensive resource”. Disk is cheap nowadays. I meant massive as in “there is a lot of code and by that a lot of complexity in this one binary”. You just inferred I meant bloat. I get that that is my fault for not specifying it the first time But I already explained I didn’t mean that so I don’t really get why you keep riding that 10 meg point.
Sorry but there is a libsystemd-shared listed in your screenshot
[XXX@YYY]$ ls -lh /usr/lib/libsystemd.so.0.40.0 /usr/lib/systemd/libsystemd-core-257.7-1.so /usr/lib/systemd/libsystemd-shared-257.7-1.so
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1.2M Jun 25 14:42 /usr/lib/libsystemd.so.0.40.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2.4M Jun 25 14:42 /usr/lib/systemd/libsystemd-core-257.7-1.so

Are you intentionally misrepresenting this or are you actually missing these? Also: This isn’t about diskspace. Obviously every halfway modern PC can provide the disk space to house the systemd binaries. Disk is cheap but crucially not necessarily tied to complexity. A simple application can take Gigs and still be simple if it includes a lot of resources (graphical, audio, whatever). And a very complex thing can “only” take a few megabytes if it only includes code. Like systemd does.
Note that I am a (mostly) happy user of systemd. I am just annoyed at people misrepresenting facts to fight anti-systemd-bullshit.
Did you accidentally forget A) the .so files these binaries link against and B) the actual systemd daemon binary?
And then you get an invite from a person you would have thought you aren’t friends with, based on their behavior. Time to start a game I like to call: “Is it an invite out of politeness/because of a social norm I’m missing or is this an actual invite because we are friends and I missed that”
The only thing I’m missing in the CLI is easy picking and choosing which change to include in a commit on a more fine grained basis than files. I sometimes have a changed file and the changes fix different issues and thus should get separate commits but with the CLI I can’t easily select the changes to be staged. At least not AFAIK.
Edit: Richards law of posting something wrong to get fast correct answers seems to stay true, even on lemmy. Thanks for teaching me something today <3
Well it is also a massive executable in the mix there
Bridge to terrabithia
Wasn’t really to young but didn’t know what to expect and got emotionally crushed by accident. Just heard it was a good movie and put it on one evening.
Well click-through is getting worse and worse the more search engines just give answers themselves without losing you to the actual websites. This must also or even especially affect reddits ability to capitalize the user generated content through ads. Not sure if trying to enter a field that is currently killing itself by showing ai summaries instead of search results is a good move though…
Wow. That is a collection of footguns seeking it’s contender.
Sorry that’s spelled jardoughneigh you uncultured swine. Give back that monocle at once!
Jumping in here from the sideline: Just because you have an opinion doesn’t mean that it’s unreasonable to feel hurt by that opinion. Also that opinion doesn’t necessarily mean there is a debate to be had. That opinion can also be transphobic, which would explain both the hurt and the nondiscussion of that idea.
Also I have a hard time following your thoughts here:
I strongly believe freedom and transparency should be over security. I have enough of the censoring, auto filtering of messages, manual approvals and believe they do a lot more harm than good. Perfect examples of that is what many governments try to do with the analysis of all of our private messages, phone and computer contents and media
A) I am pretty sure you mean safety and not security. Having the ability to post or not to post has very little to do with security and might have something to do with the safety of readers, instance maintainers and most importantly, the victims of the csam.
B) equaling moderation on a community to state sanctioned censorship is always a big red flag. Let communities choose their own rules. No community should be forced to accept every post from everyone. You do not have the given right to post to every community just because you want a big audience. You have the right to make your own community and build your audience.
C) neither moderation nor censorship are relared to the government monitoring your private messages. That is an important topic that should be discussed widely and be called attention to. But it’s wildy unrelated.
Oh my god people. This is just a tongue in cheek joke about the ridiculousness of the two comments above me. The first one is either completely made up or pretty much unverifiable if true. The second one is an unreasonable request if the first comment was true because it would obviously endanger the source. It was meant as a test for whether the first comment was telling the truth but it’s completely failing at doing that.
I didn’t post anything besides a snarky comment below yours
Yes. There are a lot of protests against him. It’s just not enough.
I need names and addresses! For… Reasons unrelated to any lethal plans
Because lemmings that try doing it would be pulled in front of a judge if they went public about it afterwards. It would a) just be a single person that would b) face consequences for that action.
Israel on the other hand is a state level actor killing civilians in another jurisdiction. I know it’s just another war crime between many others at this point, but it bears noticing just how little the consequences have become
Pretty much every messenger is built around a central server. Tracing connections to that server is not without hassle but doable with government resources. Now, a Briar-Style P2P Network could work but that has it’s own problems. Central servers are popular for a reason.
