The quote is a derivative of something Bjarne Stroustrup said himself¹.

C makes it easy to shoot yourself in the foot; C++ makes it harder, but when you do it blows your whole leg off

Ah okay, so you're not attempting to deprecate ALSA. That's a relief! :)

The most recent commit is removing it again. I see no reason in the commits for this back and forth ALSA removal, do you know what it is about?

Intervene? I don't think they have that kind of power ;)

Du har selvfølgelig ret, men det kan være en hjælp at se tingene fra en rationel vinkel når man bliver lidt angst. Det hjælper selvfølgelig ikke hvis man er bange for at dø af et lynnedslag...

Jeg synes at det er på sin plads at perspektivere risikoen for at dø ved et terrorangreb, før vi på grund af frygt svækker vores demokrati ved at indføre masseovervågning. I følge en artikel fra businessinsider i 2017, der ganske vist handler om riskoen for at dø af angreb specifikt fra udenlandske terrorister i USA, var der 260 gange større chance for at dø af et lynnedslag.

Det tror jeg fordi at der ingen steder står at det er dét der er sket. Der kan være mange måder de er blevet gjort opmærksom på planerne. Det kan være et tip eller på et forum hvor radikaliserede typisk mødes. Den mistænkte har ifølge artiklen på DR også haft anskaffet kemikalier til fremstilling af bomber, så det kan også være ét sted politiet er blevet gjort opmærksom på personen.

Jeg kan ikke blankt afvise at Meta eller en amerikanske efterretningstjeneste har kontaktet Østrig baseret på noget der er dukket op i et automatisk filter, vi ikke ved om eksisterer, men det ville være ren spekulation. Det eneste jeg kan komme frem til udfra det jeg kan læse om Metas E2EE i Messenger er at det er nødvendigt at Meta selv er direkte involveret i en overvågning. På den baggrund virker det mest sandsynligt at Meta kan deaktivere E2EE for udvalgte mål.

• Messenger E2EE Whitepaper
• Messenger Encrypted Message Storage Whitepaper

Simpelt nok for mig:

• Målrettet overvågning med dommerkendelse, okay.
• Udifferenceret overvågning, aldrig.

Så vidt jeg forstår er det ikke nogen der er blevet opsnappet ved hjælp af masseovervågning.

Ligegyldigt hvad man kalder det så har Facebook fuld kontrol over alle "ender". En lille meget målrettet opdatering og vupti.

The other commenters in this thread seems to be giving you good advice and moral support, so I'm just going to give my input which comes from a perspective that's a bit different.

Sometimes especially when the options we have are contrary to our beliefs, we have to consider if we really need to be a part of it. Sometimes the burden is the smartphone itself. I don't use smartphones and I couldn't be happier, somehow my life didn't end. The last one I had was the N900 and even though it was a pretty cool pocketcomputer, I guess it's now been around 10 years since I last had a smartphone. I don't miss it and especially not when I see other people who have one. It's scary so addictive it seems to be. Pen and paper for data sharing and just calling people can accomplish many tasks.

Old people with bad eyesight also need banking, so I'd hope theres a bank out there who don't require a smartphone. In my country banks use the national id for authentication and you can get a TOTP keychain for the 2FA instead of an app, perhabs similar options exist.

Anyway, I hope you find something that works for you. Life is a process.

I use WebScrapBook on LibreWolf. It let you choose between saving to single html, maff and htz. I prefer the htz format where resources are stored next to the page in an archive. It can also be viewed natively by Firefox-based browsers using the URI scheme jar:file:///home/me/somepage.htz!/index.html.

My recommendation:

1. Write to your politicians and tell them that cables should become provider neutral to increase competition.
2. Find a cheaper wireless provider and move what can be moved to offline first.
3. Write your current provider and tell them why you cancel.
