Last time I checked, the secret chats had some severe downsides that make them unusable as normal chats.

And if you want to bring open-source to the conversation: Signal is AGPL licensed, both the apps and backend. Not that it matters because of the E2E encryption.

Telegram doesn't have proper E2E encryption, so why are you using it for text messages at all? Asking this in privacy seems a bit weird to me.

I have DSlite on my home internet connection, which makes DDNS pretty much impossible. OP should check for that.

DDNS is only required for when you want to share it with other people. For accessing your own stuff from anywhere, there's tailscale. I set aside 30 minutes to read into it and set it up, but found myself with a working VPN between my phone and PC after just 3 minutes. And it's completely free for this use case.

That part is stupid indeed. If you run X, do xinput and find your trackpad. Then do xinput list-props on that to see all the settings there are. Xinput can also change them with xinput set-prop and they reset after a reboot, so feel free to fiddle around.

Once you're done, just slap your settings into a script and run that on startup, then you're set.

I agree that it goes against their core values, but they have shitloads of internal sensors that could be used very unethically.

I'd recommend against Sony IEMs. I know multiple people who got theirs replaced under warranty (WF-1000XM4 and 5), one of them twice. They tend to not last for very long.

I have some WH-1000XM4 over-ears and they're not terrible, but not worth the money either. They need an equalizer to sound decent.

But before you buy anything: Can you wear IEMs comfortably for a long time? I got some weirdly shaped ears and horrible earwax, so I don't bother with those at all.

This has been memed about forever, no one knows what the majority does.

These things feel like they are made by microsoft. You click somewhere, wait 3-10 seconds and then you can click again.

It has to be more sophisticated than that. Otherwise users could easily taint the datasets by giving wrong answers on purpose.

It probably checks your answer against the current model's best guess and if it's close enough, you get a pass and your input is added to the training data for the next iteration. The more wrong you are, the more challenges you get.

I still don't know whether you're supposed to hit those and I also don't know if it's normal to get two challenges or if that just means I did the first one wrong.

Grayjay. It's still a bit buggy but exactly what you're looking for.
