I wanted to search for the postman tracker’s address, so went to check on notbob.i2p. website unreachable. Isn’t this a relatively fairly popular site here?
Edit: on a second try it now loaded in ~10 seconds.
This latency is probably not to much of a problem, but two things:
- the instability that it couldn’t even start loading the site, and it’s regularity
- if a text site with few graphics takes this much time to transfer, bittorrent and movies will be even worse because that’s often not compressible
There’s bitlocker, I think it was added in 7 or Vista. What do you mean?
But other than that, I would rather use VC too.
Hmm, depends. It has a built in openssh client and server, but the “feature” (automatically installing package) is off by default. It can be enabled at install time with the use of the standard windows image modification tools (DISM I think?)
I think it’s better that Microsoft does not have that much control over software distribution.
Of course you can’t, nobody can tell by looking at the store page if it was modified by anyone, including Microsoft.
The amazon app store for android explicitely tells that they are adding tracking code to every uploaded app, and to make this possible they replace the digital signature of apps uploaded. Google with the play store does not tell anything like this afaik, but for a few years now it also basically compromised the digital signatures of developers, by requiring the private keys to be mandatorily handed in for continued app updates.
I don’t trust that these companies that already rely on mass surveillance as a revenue stream, they won’t add tracking code to apps unauthorized by the devs. If not right now, it will happen in the future.
Besides quality, I think open source distro’s repository and it’s packagers are largely more trustable. They are not motivated financially to modify the packages in unwanted (by the user) ways, and they are transparent.
I think they are drifting farther and farther away.
It was an option. But the shitshow of 11… thanks that’s too much. I’m not installing that for anyone. And 10 is soon end of life…
