Can you give me an example of an actual modern and good FOSS game?

Dutch can do the same. You can just keep slapping words together. It never ends.

100% sure they do. It would be silly not to.

Not to argue about the privacy issue, but aren't there better options than a towel? Get a phone without camera? Get one of those phones with physical switches for sensors? Get graphene OS and don't install anything but signal? I feel the towel wrapping is not the best solution for your privacy issue.

Tesla has a ceo that is arguably evil, his companies flaunt labour laws and he is actively trying to make the world a worse place through multiple means.

The HP writer makes mean tweets and complains women use her bathroom.

Both are bad people, but not even remotely at the same level.

 

I am running a NAS at home, Minecraft server and some other stuff.

I want to make it all easier to access by getting my own domain, both for myself and friends and family.

Will also use it for my mail address etc.

My main goal is reduce my dependency on US services for very obvious reasons.

What's a good non US dns registrar to use? Found a ton online, but it's my first time doing this and I'm a bit lost unfortunately.

Any help and/or advice is greatly appreciated.

I was considering to get soverein.nl, as they offer a custom domain with their mailbox for a small extra fee. Anyone have experience with them?

Seems like a simple one stop solution.

If it's a one time payment and it works well enough, chances are big I'll get it.

If it's a subscription, I wish you the very best, but it won't be for me.

Unfortunately the explanation seems to point towards the latter :(

To be honest, selling copied games also paid for my games, my CD writer and then some when I was 14-15. Took ages to copy a single CD, and it would regularly fail, but friends happily paid me 10 euro for a working copy of the latest fifa.

Any references for that? First I hear of it.

Not that I don't believe you, but I'd like to read up about it. I basically never reboot my phone, never had issues.

 

I'm traveling to the US mainland for the first time in my life in a few weeks.

I am not overly stressed about privacy, but I have read that US immigration can really overstep their boundaries. Are there any simple specific steps to take on my devices to protect my privace when going through US border control?

Remove my main accounts from my phone/tablet and use dummy accounts? Or just removing my biometrics?

 

I love the content posted here. As someone that has recently started dabbling in AI image Gen, it would be an amazing learning tool to see a) which model was used to generate the image and b) which prompt was given. With a) being most interesting imo.

Is there any reason this is not required?

(hope it's OK to post this here, didn't see anything in the rules about it)
