Data centers aren't necessary for web sites. Most data centers are associated with AI or crypto. The former is useless, the latter is a ponzi scheme.

pretty damn close to a 100% top-to-bottom bluesky-free bluesky

✅ indie pds (lots)
✅ indie relay (mine + others now!)
✅ indie jetstream (mine + many more (optional))
🌀 indie appview (AppViewLite has some issues, @futur.blue's should work, more in progress)
✅ indie client (@aviva.gay's deer.social !)
alright the work is cut out

AppViewLite's own web view works really well, but i can't get very far using its XRPC endpoints. seems like deer was doing everything right though!

Amid enshittification, a shout-out for jisho.org, which is still fast, reliable, ad-free, and among the dictionaries I regularly consult when translating. (Sure, it doesn't have the answer I need every time, but nothing does).

Double Ratchet (used by Signal, iMessage, WhatsApp e2ee) provides provable Post-Compromise Security. However, the end user does not obtain the same guarantees (« conversation PCS ») in practice; that paper shows that there is little hope to reach this security level.

Tell me again how it would be fine to backdoor encrypted communications systems and how that wouldn't become a honeypot for attacks like this?

Just realised a quick trick using @ellie.wtf's atuin. When writing CLI commands, add a comment at the end describing what they do. They can then be found in atuin by comment text when needed in the future.
