What hominids had 2500+ years ago was a primitive sense of reality, which gave rise to all that mysticism which prevails so far. Consciousness, defined as advanced awareness, was the last part to develop. That function allows you to build "Devuan Linux" instead of mixing with the sheep. -- Андрес Суарес мобильник +79310009732 ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
Re: [DNG] [OT] The End of Trust
It's just becoming more open and cynic. My cellphone is already turning my private OFFLINE conversations into ad-topics. The thing is, in this times (and what follows) there's some people who can do something for self-defence, and many others who can't and/or will never acknowledge what is happening. -- Andres Suarez Mobile +79310009732 В Пн, 03/12/2018 в 20:26 -0600, goli...@dyne.org пишет: > For your reading pleasure: > > https://www.eff.org/the-end-of-trust > > Most of it is familiar but I did discover something that I didn't > know. > Tucked away in the sidebar on page 226 is this interesting factoid: > > "The website freedom-to-tinker.com, hosted by Princeton’s > Center for Information Technology Policy, published a study > highlighting a particularly invasive data-mining software > called “session replay scripts” that are being used by an > increasing number of websites.

Thanks both. Server and PC updated.

[DNG] Security Jessie VS ASCII
Hello everybody, From the security point of view: Is it worth to update from Jessie to ASCII? Do you see any significant advantage? I do no use any exotic software.
