I think it’s important to repeat: you don't "have something to hide" when you put blinds on your windows or close the door when you're on the can or wear clothes.
Privacy isn't about having something to hide. It's not about keeping secrets. It's about you being the person who chooses what you reveal about yourself, and when, and to who, and the other word we have for that is "dignity". Your inherent dignity, as a human being.
Your privacy is the agency you have over your dignity.

If you're into Vintage Apple and you haven't seen any videos from 65scribe, kick back and enjoy hours of quality content which dives deep into Apple history! These are the videos I often listen to while repairing my Macs.
#Mozilla is creating a fediverse instance. What is Mozilla?
• A “not-for-profit” that owns multiple for-profit businesses and pays its CEO $5.6M
• Gets ~83% of its revenue (~$500,000,000) every year from surveillance capitalist Google
• Makes a browser that protects your privacy (*some configuration required)
• Is now a VC…
This is the best we can expect from Silicon Valley/capitalism. Question is: can we do better than that?

Implemented the splash/loading screen for #Macstodon today. It took _way_ longer than it should have, but the result looks just beautiful!
Thanks again to @mhzmodels for the impressive logo and icon!

How's your evening?
Mine is spent creating an 800KB ProDOS floppy using an Apple IIe card on a Mystic Colour Classic using ADTPro (at 19200 bauds) via the Mac's modem port connected to a 2019 MacBook Pro running Ubuntu in a Parallels virtual machine.
The whole thing is going over a home-made Din8 to DB9 serial cable plugged into a DB9 to USB FTDI thingy and then to a USB to USB-C adapter.
As you do.
