  • TLDR but I think I get the gist.

    I know that lemmy devs are commies, doesn’t bother me. The idea that some technologies can or should be used only by some political factions is just dumb. I left reddit after the api changes because I’m not installing proprietary spyware on my phone. I also like the idea of a decentralized, community run social platform, ideally nostr based because I like the way nostr federation works better than the fediverse, where the user can choose which relays to connect to instead of their instance making that decision for them, but until there is a viable alternative with a larger community I’m here.


  • What argument? Most of the article says “Everyone who disagrees with me is a far right gender fascist and also for some reason racist and I’m right because science (I didn’t care to link to) says so, trust me bro.”

    The only half viable arguments provided (and I’m really reaching here) can be easily debunked.

    She was assigned female at birth.

    Sex is assigned at birth based on external characteristics aka primary reproductive organs, you can’t tell someone has internal testes, xy chromosomes or abnormally high testosterone levels just by looking at them.

    She is eligible according to the Olympic rules.

    The Olympic rules that were changed recently by removing the requirements for testosterone level within a certain range, the same reason why she was deemed illegible to compete by International Boxing Association just a year earlier, who is way more qualified to set fair and safe boxing rules then the International Olympic Committee by their own admission (PDF warning). Clearly we can’t say that it’s 100% fair and safe for her opponents.

    She has lost before

    I’m a guy and I’m 99% sure I would loose to a pro female boxer in the same weight class, because I have 0 training or experience, but I’m also 99% sure I would do way better than a girl with 0 training or experience. Loosing doesn’t mean you don’t have an unfair advantage.

    Even using the lefts’ own logic, if sex is a spectrum and she as someone who’s intersex is somewhere in the middle of that spectrum, isn’t it unfair and unsafe for either her or her rivals to fight each other when they’re so far apart on the thing that’s so detrimental to defining ones’ physical capabilities?







  • The law… But seriously, it’s not meant to spy on you or me. It’s meant for 90% of the population who can’t install an .apk and don’t know the difference between a web browser and a search engine. They’ll just download facebook messenger from the play store if it doesn’t come already pre-installed with their phone and won’t even know that this law is a thing until they get arrested for sharing pictures of their sick kid with the family doctor or political dissent terrorism once it gets inevitably expanded to other things than csam.




  • A gui app that lets you:

    • symmetrically encrypt and decrypt text and files with AES-256 and without any weird formating that would make it incompatible with openssl.
    • generate (without writing to file) RSA-(2048-4096) keys and asymmetrically encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify text and files.

    It should be simple without any advanced options or storing any data or credentials or saving anything without asking the user. For example;

    For symmetric text:

    • 3 text boxes, 1 for input, 1 for output, 1 for password, encrypt/decrypt radio, 1 button.

    For symmetric file:

    • file picker, 1 password text box, encrypt/decrypt radio, 1 button

    For asymmetric generation:

    • 2 text boxes, 1 for priv key, 1 for pub key, 1 button.

    For asymmetric text:

    • 3 text boxes, 1 for input, 1 for output, 1 for priv/pub key, encrypt/decrypt/sign/verify radio, 1 button

    For asymmetric file:

    • file picker, 1 priv/pub key text box, encrypt/decrypt/sign/verify radio, 1 button
