As long as javascript is running they can track your mouse movement, which is similar to people’s gait when they walk.

Gonna need a source or a reference for that second part. Yes, I’m very aware that your mouse movement can be tracked, so we can skip that part.

pushing people towards specific ideas using social media

I’ve been incredibly concerned about this for more than a decade. Watching r/the_donald in action was incredible and validated all of that fear.

And it’s still happening. On all social media, including here.

Certain narratives are pushed hard, and it’s effective. Some of it is fully genuine. Some of it is/was seeded artificially and picked up some genuine steam, and is still being reinforced. The stuff that’s fully artificial seems to be dropped fairly quickly most of the time these days.

After the artificial narrative picks up and gets genuine sentiment mixed with it, it becomes hard to tell the difference. If you can mix it in with existing emotions, like anger that we’re in this situation, and add in some seeds of truth it works even better.

Propaganda works. On all of us. And just by being here, we’re being exposed. But I’m afraid to leave, too. The more real people leave the easier it is to manipulate the remainder.

It’s just all so easy and effective and actually happening. And the alarm bells about it aren’t loud enough.

Check abrp, a better route planner. Can’t say if it’s open source, but it’s provably better then the default one in my car.

Seems like clickbait. Wikipedia does not need actual visitors that badly.

I need my Omnissa Remote Client (VMWare) to work on Wayland with multiple monitors and I’d be good to go.

As it is, I have to use Windows for work.

Ubuntu didn’t work, but PopOS with Nvidia drivers built in works great.

Yeah, I am on .World which for some reason still federates with .ml. I’ve moved over to Piefed on Desktop, just not on mobile yet.

Just read these 14 books from 1930 if you want to have an opinion. No, I can’t summarize anything from them. They can only be understood in their entirety.

All hail Putin, Xi.

If you want to find out if they’re an actual tankie, just look for anything related to Russia or China. They out themselves pretty quick, usually.

You should leave any instance that is federated with the Triad, imo. Lemmygrad, Hexbear, and ML are all Russia sponsored/supported instances that should be shunned by Lemmy as a whole.

You’re encouraging people to “stay home in well-earned disgust”. That serves the fascists.

End of story.

There are ways to say what you want to say carefully. But in my opinion stopping the Nazis needs to come before any other priorities.

I think some of it is intentional, and some are just taken along by that.

Also it’s always easier to throw rocks from the sidelines than to actually lead. It’s so much easier to find something wrong with everything than it is to try to figure out the right thing to do.

Plus nuance is always difficult. Better to just treat everything as back and white.

Vaultwarden is what you’re looking for.

Sometimes you have different use cases. One beefy machine is likely more energy efficient. Many small machines allows reuse of old hardware.
