Thanks! And, uh, you're confident that this is safe? Sorry to ask again, just need reassurance I guess.
Revisiting this, may I ask where you got the Typewise Pro apk, and also is it safe?
That's good to know, thanks!
I have the option to see hidden files using Material Files (won't let you look inside Android folder tho); if you need something more heavy duty there's Ghost Commander. Both are available on F-Droid. There's also Files from GrapheneOS, which might be available on the Play Store, but not sure about that one.

From Wikipedia: The Ludwig von Mises Institute for Austrian Economics, or Mises Institute, is a nonprofit think tank headquartered in Auburn, Alabama, that is a center for Austrian economics, radical right-wing libertarian thought and the paleolibertarian and anarcho-capitalist movements in the United States. It is named after the economist Ludwig von Mises (1881–1973) and promotes his version of heterodox Misesian Austrian economics.
I keep trying to post this to World News on BH but it then it ends up on lemmy.ml instead!
To appease his far-right flank, the prime minister has refused to commit to Palestinian governance of Gaza. Israel’s security figures are calling his bluff.

Well, they spoke with the EFF which made Privacy Badger, so maybe that's why. They did the password thing with the dice, tho, which I guess is good.
✔HTTPS 👍
✔VPNs 👍
I thought DNS over HTTPS (DoH!) was not recommended for some reason . . . My VPN provider claims to be using its own DNS servers.
I was under the impression that Privacy Badger wasn't considered useful any more . . . ? They should've just recommended using Firefox instead, yes?
EDIT: They spoke to, but IMHO, did not give enough time to, Cory Doctorow and Brewster Kahle. They mentioned Mastodon 👍, and described the Fediverse while not actually calling it that! A bit frustrating.
Before answering your first question (I'm actually not sure how to answer! I'll have to think about it 🤔)--my laptop has wifi, which transmits and receives radio waves to/from my router; my router is connected to a cable (broadband cable? I guess? Not DSL at any rate), which is connected to the internet (and there's also a MODEM in there somewhere too). My laptop doesn't have the ability to connect by mobile data which uses, I guess?, cell phone towers, but my smartphone can use both. So they're two different systems is I guess what I'm getting at, and I was never clear on how or if a VPN provided any sort of basic privacy if it was only using cell towers. This is a potentially really dumb question (the head injury doesn't help 🤕), but remember, William Gibson used to think that computers were powered by these gleaming magical crystals (or so he claims), before he looked inside one and discovered that it was basically just a floppy plastic record spinning around really fast.
I've never completely understood this, but I think the answer would probably be "no," although I'm not sure. Usually when I leave the house I turn off wifi and just use mobile data (this is a habit from my pre-VPN days), although I guess I should probably just keep it on since using strange Wi-Fi with a VPN is ok (unless someone at Starbucks is using the evil twin router trick . . . ?). I was generally under the impression that mobile data is harder to interfere with than Wi-Fi, but I could well be wrong and my notions out of date. So, if need be, please set me straight. 🙂
Agreed on the title, but the baristas did win a pretty significant victory.
South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem is now banned from entering nearly 20% of her state after two more tribes banished her this week over comments she made earlier this year about tribal leaders benefitting from drug cartels.
Can you make a flowchart (or maybe there is one already) that shows what platforms can interact with others and how? Sort of kidding, but maybe not. I really like the idea of the Fediverse, but it does seem to have a bit of an "apples and oranges" problem with the different platforms. Hopefully an issue that's being worked on.
In recent weeks, people unhappy with Mastodon project talked about forking the project in a different direction. It's harder than it looks.

In honor of Steve Albini, one of the many fine albums he produced.
Nostr is another effort to build an open social network on the Web, and it's very different than ActivityPub. Here's how it works.
A record 30% of global electricity was generated from renewables in 2023, according to a report released by Ember, a think tank based in London.
An NYPD spokesperson waved a scholarly book about terrorism around on TV in an attempt to associate Columbia University protesters with terrorists. Well, we actually read it. The claim is as absurd as you might guess.
The Hamas militant group says it has accepted an Egyptian-Qatari cease-fire proposal to halt seven-month war with Israel.
Because far too many US Dems are cowards who live in fear of the conservative news media who will claim, no matter what they do, that they are "soft on crime."
Thanks! I only wish I could use "Bypass Paywalls Clean" on Mull; even if I enable the Iceraven addons it just gives me "Bypass Paywalls for Firefox" which isn't as effective.
EDIT: I was also slightly alarmed recently to discover how many cookies Fennec was retaining; I'd like to be able to keep the one for BH so I don't have to log in every time, and maybe a few others, but not if I have to keep all of them.
Can Biden win without the youth vote? Does he even want to win?
Maybe play around with this a bit?
Hey, hey, genocide Joe, how many Palestinians left to go?
I'm not very good at this 🙁
Hey, hey, genocide Joe ... ?
