People hate being told to use magnetic tape
Because there are still horror stories of them falling apart and not lasting even in proper controlled conditions

Yes I mean google wallet. I’ve never heard of a banking app supporting NFC payments by itself, I was not aware that was even a thing… googling suggests that might be an EU-only thing.
Every time I think about running custom roms or degoogled stuff, I remember that NFC payments will no longer work and then I get sad.
just be aware that there’s only one user and it’s root
curious what people are asking and where you are when this happens? I would be shocked if I was just walking around my local grocery store and someone has any clue what Haiku is.
network namespaces can do it, firejail makes it easy but there’s several other methods as well.
if you already know the IP address(es) you will be communicating with, it’s even easier just by adding a static route with a gateway of the VPN interface.
this is dangerous advice. courts can still subpoena the usenet provider for your information.
well yea, if it’s free you’re the product
oracle has perpetual free tier VMs, just selfhost it
You don’t control any VPN services hosted on someone else’s (e.g. a cloud provider’s) infrastructure
We must have very different definitions of “control”.
They have full access and can technically do anything.
You could say the same for anyone with physical access to a machine. But the people who have to worry about that likely aren’t reading this.
And they see your incoming and outgoing connections.
So does any bandwidth provider you pay money to.
This is stupid, and doesn’t give you any privacy benefit.
Highly debatable and subjective IMO
There are good and trustworthy VPN providers
Depends on your definition of trustworthy… some say it’s impossible to trust any company.
I think there’s mainly two usecases:
the “weird” people who don’t visit any mainstream sites and live under a rock
people who disable JS by default but are always adding exceptions for sites that need it
not sure but I heard they recently caught the FGC-9 designer

Not using javascript is like a huge beacon of light screaming just how unique you really are. There are several methods for fingerprinting you without JS, or even without CSS/HTML.
And the number of people not using JS being very small, it doesn’t take as many bits of information to uniquely identify you.
I don’t trust any VPN service I don’t personally control myself.
Agreed, and it is a tragedy that this requires snapd.
I was not refuting that, yes drivers can control the LED since forever. The original comment was “the link light is powered by the switch”, which I’m saying is not possible. An ethernet switch (assuming it’s not PoE) cannot directly power an LED on a network adapter in your PC let alone the rest of it, that’s all I’m saying.
Several solutions have already been posted in here, please do not try to act authoritative when you don’t know the answer. We already saw you asked what VNC is.
