I can't seem to find an actual currency estimate of how much privacy is actually worth. I see a ton of articles talking about why privacy should be worth more to people or what people would pay for privacy services or how much people would sell their privacy for, but I don't see anything that gives a value for the privacy industrial complex, so to speak. Like if you take every company and non-profit and everything else and throw it all together, how much is the privacy industry actually worth?

Edit: It's worth at least $2.8 billion US dollars because that is the market cap on average of the privacy-focused cryptocurrency Monero.

Edit 2: If you put Monero, Zcash, and Dash together, you come up with $3.4 billion US dollars.

Edit 3: All the above plus Signal, Proton and EFF bring it up to 3.5 billion.

So it seems to me that things like tortured poets department and midnight have been more mellow than her previous albums such as 1989 and reputation. Personally, I don't like them as well. They are still good. There's no question about that, but I prefer the more upbeat style she used in reputation, especially.

Edit: Pretty sure my favorite song from Tortured Poets Department is probably "Down Bad".

I have no clue why, but i am not able to load http://feder8.me/p2pool/ on fennec 124.2.0 (android) but it loads fine on firefox focus 122.0, tor browser 13.0.12 (android based on firefox 115.9.0), and firefox desktop 125.0.2.

Can anybody else see if it's doing the same thing? Because I'm wondering if the desktop Firefox and the mobile Firefox are formatting in different ways when it retrieves the AAAA record from the DNS or something?

2.4GHz wifi is not suitable for two big reasons, interference and low bandwidth. 2.4GHz wifi in any kind of suburban or city environment and sometimes even in rural will be congested with other networks, microwaves, other appliances, etc causing massive speed degradation or fluctuations. The range of 2.4GHz is just too large for all the equipment that uses it in today's world. In my previous apartment complex for example my phone could see 35 distinct 2.4GHz wifi networks while only 3 at max can operate without interfering with each other. In that same building i could only see 13 5GHz networks. Which brings me to the second issue of bandwidth

2.4GHz at least here in the US only has channels 1, 6, and 11 that will not interfere with each other. if anyone puts their network between these three channels it will knock out both the one below and the one above. Channel 3 would interfere with both channels 1 and 6 for example. By going up to 5GHz you have many more free channels, fewer networks competing for those channels, and higher bandwidth channels allowing for much higher throughput. 2.4GHz allows 40MHz wide channels which in isolation would offer ~400mbps, but you will never see that in the real world.

Personally, i think OEMs should just stop including it or have it disabled by default and only enable it in an "advanced settings" area.

Edit: I am actually really surprised at how unpopular this opinion appears to be.

If i put say 123.123.123.123 into firefox desktop or mobile it will try to load a webpage from that host. If i put http://[ipv6] into desktop it works as well. If i do the same on mobile it sends it to my search engine as a query.

I have the ts albums that i got from the high seas, however, i am now buying the tv albums so will have duplicates. Should i delete the origionals and just keep tv's that i buy? What are all you doing?

Any ideas? I am attempting to write a script that uses sed.

If done this way it fails

• rmdec="sed 's/..................$//'"
• i1xmr=$(echo "$i1p/$apiresponse*1000" |bc -l |$rmdec)

But if i do it this way it works

• i1xmr=$(echo "$i1p/$apiresponse*1000" |bc -l | sed 's/..................$//')

Is this a thunder thing or a lemmy thing? If i sort by say top 6 hours i get the upvoted posts, but i also see posts with 1 point, 0 points, and sometimes negative points. Considering that you upvote your own post by default shouldn't posts with more than 1 point be the only ones shown?

I just downloaded the new infinity for lemmy client to kick the tires and found quite a few unlabeled buttons within seconds of loading my feed. Some SemanticLabel(s) would go a long way here.

Title. Key management is so not intuitive at all. You have your session verification key in case you have no access to another session. Fine, i totally understand. Then you have E2E room keys you can either backup on your homeserver or in a file. Fine, except not so much. I exported my room keys to a backup file and deleted them from my homeserver. I signed out of element completely. I sign back in just fine, i verify my session with my session verification key just fine. I import my E2E room keys and see 32/32 keys imported success. Great. One encrypted room shows my historyperfect, the other "Waiting for this message, this may take a while". Exactly why is this? Every key imported fine so why arent all messages in all rooms decrypted?
