You're no fun, orange turnip was merely an example of a bad actor getting control (going Reagan would be confusingly amusing) and it's not about anyone in particular, more so the entire worlds' dirty laundry out to dry

And everyone thinks about real time implications, what about historical ? Seems pretty likely that the NSA has been storing an appreciable fraction of the internet for a long damn while. Come Q-Day that all gets opened and searchable. What would Trump do ?

Yeah, I was younger then, perhaps less disciplined, and as always, given enough work you can decompile or regenerate anything. Still, I contend, the nature of Perl, powerful as it was, lent itself to unmaintainable messes, and I'm not talking regex's, which is why it has faded, no amount of get gud withstanding.

I upvoted you because I consider Perl write only (used to know it, now it inspires readable code as a high priority)

Eh, that moment when you get a different error message tho ;)

Wow, valid issue.

Spitballing, potentially a secure app could run memory only, blah, blah, blah. Nope, you've given M$ your screen FFS, it's all over. If you care, move elsewhere, tell your friends...

As you point out, codes are an option, but it's not a slippery slope, it's a waterslide.

Great to hear!

Not sure, but it is still active with like 80 contributors. It's much the same as the original with a couple of extra features and more languages, so transition should be minimally painful, maybe even export - import level. I've been using it for years as I saw the original wasn't very active, but they're pretty much (essential) feature complete and stable, which is good. Apparently, google thinks that's bad.

As noted elsewhere Syncthing-Fork is still going strong, and a drop-in replacement, it's on F-Droid.

 

Wanting to torrent in a country other than my own, I've been exiting via Singapore as it has the most direct path I believe. Any reason not to ? Any superior choices for whatever reason ? Couldn't find this discussed anywhere. TIA.

I'm one of those oddballs who's never joined, but I'm in the market for a new to me bike, and it seems like all the action is on marketplace. Am I screwed, or is there an effective workaround ?

Edit: Not US. There are local alternatives that I know about, but they are worse, please answer question as asked ! Basically I'm thinking of alternative software ala FreeTube, or a way of spoofing facebook to make a dummy account only to be used for this and if so what precautions to take...
