Well, I had dumped using Ubuntu which has become less stable in my opinion, not to mention telemetry and SNAP… and lets recall that it’s based on Debian and pulls down Debian code anyway (Currently on my main desktop I…
The pressure for revenue strikes all megacorps. We’re still using an old 4K box Roku made back in the 2010’s. Consequently, I haven’t seen these advertisements on ours, but then I’ve disabled some domains in my Pi-Hole DNS/Unbound servers that…
Roger Ver is more like Bitcoin Judas, as he tried to hijack Bitcoin which spun off Bitcoin Cash as the majority of the Bitcoin community rejected his takeover attempt. If you held Bitcoin when this happened, you were able to…
You’d have to assume Telegram is compromised, and perhaps always was. I have a post that has a detailed review with two telling things, no source code for server side, and choosing their own cryptographic solution instead of tried and…

I just referenced fellow AT&T employee Mark Klein a couple days ago, and with sadness we learn he just passed. The sad part about his whistleblowing, is it didn’t really change much. Hopefully before being a whistleblower he cleaned out…
I have one of these devices, and I first noticed it Sunday when trying to cast to the TV. I was thinking they went end of life as they did get a pretty good support period. Though, as compared to…
This is a pretty interesting opinion piece for this one idea as the government does watch everyone’s communications. This goes back to a retired AT&T employee Mark Klein that became a whistleblower for a secret system put into one of…
A very good recap. And it would seem the push of Bitcoin up to $107,000 or so was fueled by people thinking the Bitcoin Reserve would be the government buying Bitcoin as we’ve currently dropped to $80,283. Basically the government…
