Without all the features that actually made the Steam Controller great... yeah

32MB was massive for documents at the time. It could hold your entire academic life back then.

Nowadays you need like 32 Gigabytes lol

There's a pretty easy explanation for it. In fact, it's just one simple word: stupidity

[–] Andromxda@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 year ago

Right, that's probably a good idea

First, obviously ensure that you stay safe.

But if possible, gather as much evidence as you can. Make voice or video recordings, write down things you here, take photos of things that might be important, whatever. As soon as you're in safety, send all the evidence of your father/brother making death threats and planning violent riots to the police/FBI.

Print your ticket if you feel safe doing so, otherwise you can get it at check-in at the airport.

You can also just have it on your phone. You don't even need to use Apple Wallet or Google Wallet, most airlines just give you the PDF file. @sprigatito_bread@lemmy.world

Use an app your family doesn’t use or understand, like Snapchat or Discord.

Nah, use Signal, they definitely won't use it, cause it's "woke leftist crap"

Signal posted this on Twitter a few years ago:

And this is what the Trump cultists had to say about it:

So you can definitely be sure that they don't use it

It's also much more private and secure than Snapchat or Discord. I would avoid Discord, since it's not encrypted and your chats are saved to your account. If someone gets your password, they can read all your chats. Signal only saves them on your device, so you're safe.

Israel isn’t knee deep in an information war against the US and Europe

You're right, they're trying to spread their pro-genocide propaganda all over the world

Buying a Pixel is a good idea, especially if you put GrapheneOS on it. It's by far the best mobile operating system I've ever used.

Mullvad VPN offers Brave Search as a backend in their Leta search engine proxy. That way you don't have to access Brave directly.

Unfortunately not, since iOS does not allow third-party apps to access the APIs required for Wi-Fi scanning. I think Bluetooth could be done, but bluetooth beacons by themselves aren't as useful.

From the beaconDB Matrix room (somebody recently asked the same question):

I currently really enjoy self-hosted Perplexica (a FOSS alternative to the Perplexity AI search engine), which uses SearXNG as a meta-crawler, and Ollama for local AI integration. I'm very happy with it, but it requires a fairly powerful server (not a Raspberry Pi or another SBC, the only one that might work is the Nvidia Jetson or whatever it's called, but I haven't tried that yet).
