Though I prefer Monero ($XMR) over Bitcoin, it's sad to see a non-KYC Bitcoin exchange go away. Luckily, LocalMonero isn't related to LocalBitcoins so that is still around.

Space tourism is looking like an exciting market. Heard Blue Origin is doing the same.

I have a Sceptre TV that I bought a few years ago and couldn't be happier. Sceptre does have Smart TVs using Roku or Google TV, but there are many models such as what I bought that are modern (made within past 3-5 years) and non-smart.

Apple's "privacy" is really just data protection from other competing companies. It was just another marketing campaign to maintain their positive image.

Weirdest headline that I have encountered here. Had to read it twice just to make sure.

Still on the fence on AI art. On one end, it helps people create images on the fly for their needs without much delay finding an artist. On other, it is a soulless creation. Artists won't die out but it will be forced into a certain ni

I hate how Big Tech is so adamant about viewing and interacting through algorithms instead of allowing you to do basic sorting according to a certain order you choose.

Don't really care for this but more feature parity with WhatsApp or SnapChat could hopefully attract more people and make it somewhat mainstream. Personally, I know a lot of people that use these messengers just to look at or post stor

Or reject the partisan binary and vote third party. But in all honesty, I don't care how Elon or others vote. Just shouldn't project it onto users and try to sway people during election season as the owner of the platform.

Anyone with a good understanding of the internet and social media should come to the conclusion that constantly projecting what is happening in your life is idiotic. What's more dangerous is putting the minds of the young and undevelop

More reason to boycott the next World Cup. FIFA has been a corrupt organization for a long time with numerous scandals but this one is over the top. Qatar blatantly bought their way into the 2022 hosting spot and is using slave labor to bui

Most popular sport in most countries in the world. FIFA World Cup is the biggest sporting event in the world. The amount of viewers blows the Olympics, the next most watched after, out of the water.

The average person hasn't even put on a VR set and most of those who have don't have one laying around. Only a small dedicated amount of people use Virtual Reality and it;s mostly for gaming. Investing so much into Oculus and late

This is honestly dystopian and I can't believe that I am reading this. It's as Orwellian as it gets. Generally speaking, avoid implementing government policies and powers that you wouldn't let the worst of your enemies use, e

I suspected this since Day 1 and never downloaded the app. Don't have a problem with Chinese people, just the government. China is known for its callous authoritarian state that openly express their goal of surpassing America. By law,

YouTube is a constant strain for Google and its been that way for the past few years. YouTube itself is very expensive to maintain ( https://www.theverge.com/2020/2/3/21121207/youtube-google-al... ) and ha

Another turn off is the fact that like other streaming platforms you lose the sense of control over your media. You'll own nothing, be a renter, and forced to be happy and put up with it. You are essentially renting a game on someone e

Been very interested in OpenBSD for a while. Planning on installing it onto PCEngines' APU + antenna and using it as a router. Following this guide: https://openbsdrouterguide.net/ .

Crypto before going mainstream and investors getting involved was a middle finger to corrupt establishments that manipulate and steal the value of our money. Bitcoin was created and emerged as a reaction to the 2008 financial crisis and Cen

Love this app. Not only is it one of the few podcast apps that is FOSS but it is a service that utilizes an open platform of podcasts. It uses the open, independent, free speech database called PodcastIndex ( https://podcastindex.

This is actually a small proof of concept for the much larger project that is Arcan or Arcan-fe. Did a fair amount of research into it. Its philosophy is to move away from the traditional desktop experience and create fundamentally unique,

Wish more people knew about Monero. It pretty much replaced Bitcoin on the dark web and other markets where private, anonymous transfers of money is essential. Every crypto on most KYC exchanges exposes every transaction on its public ledge

its pretty much a modified instance of Gitea with a small, privacy-friendly German Gmhb behind it. Still like it a lot. Wish more developers at the very least set up mirrors on either Codeberg or Sourcehut.

I'm pretty indifferent towards Kanye. Not the biggest hater but this imo is somewhat stupid. It would need to undergo an overhaul and relaunch since it got banned off the app stores. Furthermore, the platform it mimics is potentially
