I sure you arent being serious, but farday caging the rooms would likely be highly illegal, blocking emergency cell calls and other emergency signals (like radio and gps) is a big ol no no.

I've been using LingoDeer for the past few days since hearing this news, and so far it's not too bad. The social features are severely lacking compared to Duolingo (my friend group goes hard on the friends quests lol) but they have a lot more grammar explanation and whatnot available that duolingo doesn't. Plus, LingoDeer seems much less focused on learning for tourism, and more for actual learning.

Note this is all for the Japanese course, no idea how their other courses are.

If OP is a journalist or refugee at risk of being targeted and killed, my advice is don't use a VPN, use TOR lol.

Not untrue, and I don't think that the possibility should be glossed over, but honestly, what do you think is more likely: this specific person getting specifically MitM'ed by a bad actor, or a bad actor taking control of a repo that hundreds of people blindly trust. I have a sneaking suspicion that OP's threat model isn't sophisticated enough to need to really, truly, be worrying about that.

What are you on about? If you are using the 3rd party repo, you are just as likely to get malware than if you download the deb directly from the wbsite. Its literally the same thing, just adding the repo means that the malware could get installed automatically and without you knowing where it came from.

When big dog acts out: "ahh that breed is aggressive! 😡"

When abused purse dogs act out (more frequently and more viciously): "oh isnt he just adorable 🥺"

I believe this wholeheartedly. I work for an mcsp, and we have a client who runs a chain of "news" sites. They are buying a bunch of AI server equipment for their racks and we are almost 100% certain its to pump out garbage for the election.

IIRC it only suports plain text files / Markdown rn. Not supporting EPUB is a non-starter for me. I use my Kobo right now and love it. If they add EPUB support i will heavily consider building one.

I would love to move off last.fm, but this doesn't support Plex, so that's a no-go for me... I did create an account though, so once they do I will happily move over lol.
