Well, it ain’t just the EU :/

Our right to privacy is under attack basically globally (EU, USA, England, Australia, maybe more, but those I’m aware off).

Being wrapped into bullshit reasons “to protect the children” or “to fight crime”, which won’t help, since malicious actors and creative kids will find work arounds for such measures.

The truth is likely more to put a oppressive surveillance police state into place. Where opposition can more easily be tracked down and silenced.

Now it’s more important then ever before to protect your rights to privacy. Since rights are easily eroded by politicians, but very hard to re-gain afterwards.

E.g. look at Russia, where you accidentally slit your throat while shaving if you try to voice yourself against Putin.

Check the changes,
they’re quite funny :P

“bUt wE nEEdeD iT tO pRoTeCt tHe cHiLdrEn”

No you lying politicians, you needed it for surveillance reasons and now you harmed everyone instead… -.-"

Same for the chat control which keeps getting put on the table in Europe, there aint no thing like a backdoor “only for the good guys”, bad actors will find and abuse it eventually.

Hit up your politicians, tell them to start actually caring for your best interests instead of speedrunning towards a surveillance state.

Raccoon thoughts:
Nooo muh grapes! D:

Well guess you really want some,
fine you can have that one.

Hi OP, I do the same thing during winters.

For XMR,
you can increase the profits a bit with XmrVsBeast + Gupaxx

That’s nice and all,
but when will they tackle loot boxes?

That shit has pushed plenty of minors into gambling addictions, but they don’t crack down on it, since they get a sweet cut of it all.

Valve in general isn’t the worst company,
but they’re far from innocent as well.

For those that don’t know:
It was a jump-scare flash game.

The goal was to navigate through the maze with your mouse, without touching the walls, which gets harder near the end, likely resulting in you getting closer to and concentrating hard on the screen.

Near the end they flashed a horror image and blasted a loud sound through your speakers.

Personally, it didn’t make me flinch much though,
but I guess it affected some others like OP.

Ahhh sad to hear, but thanks for your reply,
now I know that I can stop searching,
and start hoping for quick implementation of Wireguard config support for Netbird :)

Thanks for your suggestion, but after going through the Github issues,
I’m afraid that it’s not possible yet to connect to Netbird using a Wireguard config file:

• https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/issues/2504
• https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/issues/2627

Lately these lyrics come to mind ever more often:

White Americans, what?
Nothing better to do.
Why don’t you kick yourself out?
You’re an immigrant too.

Song: The White Stripes - Icky Thump

Oh did not know that, sad to hear.

They did remove traffic to the old Yuzu domains though, which now are in the hands of Nintendo, used to monitor which users use emulators.

Do you have other suggestions for promising successor forks?

Suyu, it’s the continuation/fork of Yuzu:

Also Azahar, the continuation/fork of Citra:

Been using VSCodium for a few years now, for loose file editing,
no complaints about it, imo it’s what VSCode should be.

That’s true,
but hey, filtering and blocking out 90% of the unwanted/negative content is already way better then getting blasted by the full 100%! :D

Bliss for mental health indeed,
been doing this for a while now,
zero regrets.

Unsure,
however it’s refreshing to see posts of this clown which actually make me smile instead of concerned.

No, instead they raped his rights with some ToS…

The more I hear about Android 15,
the less excited I get for it…
