You know Wikipedia is written by users right? So you can write the article you want out there.

Thank you.

Could you cite your sources? I’d be interested to learn more.

There has to be more context here. What have you done to gain his respect or lose it? And just because someone is related by blood it doesn’t make them family. They say blood is thicker than water but the full saying is “the blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb.”

As a former windows insider it’s too little too late. Already switched to Linux.

Forgejo didn’t exist when I installed gitea.

Gitea is the answer, configure/install with docker. I have had mine going for a few years now and haven’t had to touch it besides updating the docker container which I automated.

I know the eye of Sauron when I see it.

Can you provide a legitimate source for the statistic in your claim? I can’t find any sources.

She’s a barback.

From a technical and practical standpoint, any device with location tracking carries a significant privacy risk. Even strong encryption doesn’t eliminate the problem, because the weakest point in these systems isn’t always the math—it’s the humans. Keys can be stolen, accounts can be hacked, and access can be abused by the very people who are supposed to have it.

We’ve already seen this play out in the real world.

Police departments have abused phone-based location tools to monitor ex-partners and journalists.

Companies like Tile and Apple have had to add anti-stalking features because strangers were secretly tracking people.

And when location data is stored centrally, it becomes a prime target—like when U.S. agencies purchased phone-location data from marketing firms to track people without warrants.

Once tracking data exists, there is always the possibility that someone other than the “intended” person gets access—whether that’s a stalker, a data broker, a hacker, or a government agency. At scale, a tool built for convenience can quickly become a surveillance system.

So the issue isn’t just “what if someone abuses it”—the issue is that every trackable device creates an opportunity for abuse. Convenience turns into liability the moment access leaks, laws change, or someone with power decides they want the data.

And here I thought it was just me who saw the logo unfurling and changing from a spiral into a Bullseye.

Lol, good to know.

Nice to see someone else in Iowa on lemmy.

It’s an open-source alternative to Google maps but by linking it to home assistant it allows my wife to find my last known location if I go MIA, like get into a car crash. I prefer it since I store the location data on my own server and can control who has access to this information.

I run owntracks to my home assistant instance, it works great!

When you look at the statistics on education, Healthcare, poverty etc… in the US you can see which country is the true “third world shithole”.
