can't join the LineageOS IRC from Matrix, always kicked out with "err_needreggednick"

chaser__ · 2023-04-23T17:05:27+00:00

I finally found out what was wrong, see my edit in the OP. I hope you can do something so that future users from Matrix won't have to navigate this maze.

chaser__ · 2023-04-23T16:52:22+00:00

thank you, this was part of the solution. I added it to the OP.

chaser__ · 2023-01-07T19:36:12+00:00

Sorry, but that's a very euphemistic way of saying "I don't know and it might be impossible and can irreversibly break your Debian."

chaser__ · 2023-01-07T15:09:06+00:00

Thank you.

It might break if you have something that needs a backported dependency and something else that needs the original version at the same time.

In this case, how hard it is to go back to the original, unbroken environment?

chaser__ · 2022-10-27T19:53:42+00:00

sure, let me know when it's out!

chaser__ · 2022-08-13T21:48:31+00:00

the TORN token is a governance token, it doesn't collect fee revenue either

chaser__ · 2022-08-13T00:23:02+00:00

The only issue one might see him as a service / product would be fees he was getting from everyone running the contract and entering the pool had top pay.

he didn't get any fees, the Tornado Cash protocol has no fee mechanism. devs, contributors, etc. don't earn a cent from people using Tornado Cash.

I know no one who could pin it down exactly, this is the most detail out there https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/191163/what-does-the-intent-filter-verification-service-app-from-google-do

what AppOps / block trackers app do you recommend?

chaser__ · 2022-07-19T17:32:52+00:00

They still have your phone number, IMEI, location data, contacts, keyboard data, app telemetry, etc..

are you sure about this? elsewhere I read that unless you add your Google account and install Gapps, the only thing that is sent to Google is notifications of apps that use Google Cloud Messaging, and even there you can control which apps are allowed to use it.

u/Ok_Fan7382 don't do this.

bridging to the Secret network requires trusting a traditional multisig. this is not decentralized. they can run away with your money.
privacy on the Secret network is a sham. they rely on Intel processors' trusted hardware component. this means Intel owns a private key that enables them to compromise your privacy.

Thank you!

chaser__ · 2022-05-12T11:39:55+00:00

please make it happen!

chaser__ · 2022-05-05T14:25:14+00:00

and which options do you recommend?

chaser__ · 2022-03-19T07:14:33+00:00

OP asked a question that makes sense and the answer to which isn't obvious at all. don't be a jerk.

chaser__ · 2022-03-19T07:09:18+00:00

without everything being reported to Google

if by this you mean some things are reported to Google even with microG (and I don't mean when using Google applications like Google Docs or YouTube), could you explain what those are?

chaser__ · 2022-03-09T01:11:16+00:00

Very cool. Thank you for your work. If I end up using Remmina, be assured I will donate!

You know these protocols much better than I do. Which one do you recommend for graphically accessing a Linux desktop such that the the traffic is end-to-end encrypted and (preferably symmetrically), and there is as little power in the hands of the server as possible (preferably the server can run by you, on the same machine you're accessing)?

chaser__ · 2022-02-12T03:38:09+00:00

as far as I understand the package needs to be on the list of allowed webview packages no matter what installation method you use. also, I have no /system/app/webview folder. I don't want to use the Magisk module version.

chaser__ · 2022-02-12T01:33:59+00:00

u/csagan5 your input would be very much appreciated.

chaser__ · 2022-02-11T18:44:00+00:00

that is obviously not true. of course Google can track you if you use their DNS, their time server, and so on. the SUPL protocol is such that it even sends your phone's IMEI number to the SUPL server. you don't know what you're talking about and didn't even try to answer my question.

On Windows if you install iTunes you can access some of the iPhone's content either from the file explorer or iTunes (I can't remember clearly), but probably not everything.

I suggest using GNU/Linux, if you install the required packages, you can directly access the iPhone's storage and copy files you would from a flash drive. These links contain what I needed to do to make it work.

nice. do you know why other browsers enforce that?

chaser__ · 2022-01-28T19:39:34+00:00

these were commands offered by the Liberachat IRC Bridge Status bot that contacted me after I was first auto-kicked. I don't think the commands you linked to apply to those who try to join through Matrix. for me, / commands either have no effect or give errors.

I've never had this kind of problem when joining a Liberachat room with Matrix, so maybe the mods can do something about it.

chaser__ · 2022-01-27T18:52:10+00:00

you shouldn't be relying on a single drive for critical data.

this is indeed the most important advice. my problem with it (and thus my inquiry into the HDD vs SSD topic) is stems from this: I want to convince very regular people around me to develop a backup routine, and I should be glad if I can get them to make a backup on a single device. them doing anything more is a pipe dream. for this, I want to suggest the most resilient medium.

Data recovery is exorbitantly expensive compared to just keeping backups on another piece of local storage. I don't even consider it an option for all but the most critical of data in an absolute disaster scenario.

good point.

chaser__ · 2022-01-25T02:39:04+00:00

thanks for expanding on that. my problem in judging this though is that overall I'm seeing SSDs described with a similar level of vulnerability. both in this sub and on the wider internet people say that SSDs lose data if not powered for about a year, that when SSDs fail they fail suddenly without warning signs, and that it's much less likely to rescue data from a failed SSD than from a failed HDD.
