Is anyone else noticing a lot of websites blocking signing up with e-mail aliases?
Only github
Yep. But there's always one that they don't recognise, and you're in forever. Tom & Jerry situation, except they actually hate their users. 😂
11:12 that censorship, so petty, lol
+1

I literally have dozens of email aliases lol
364 alias, no issues whatsoever
Samsung blocked some of the SimpleLogin alias but the .fr one they didn’t do I got round that for now. :)
Why is GOS censored at 11:12?
Techlore is on bad terms with G*******OS and usually refuse to mention or discuss the project.
7:46 LibreELEC and Kodi on a Raspberry Pi 5 4GB is what you want. Even lets you use your TV remote to control the box
for printers, companies that primarily deal in laser printers tend to be a Lot less scummy than the ones that make most of their money selling ink.
Also, Linux has Really good compatibility and pain free setup with printers... provided the company that makes the printer isn't going out of their way to make it painful by demanding that you use their propritary app that doesn't have a linux version or similar nonsense. The only tricky bit is finding instructions for how to do things if you're dealing with something non-standard. network printer? plug the printer into the network. USB printer? plug it into the PC directly. Wifi? just as plug and play as with a cable so far as Linux is concerned, if it's connected to the wifi it's not different than if it was connected with a cable (though tracking down the instructions for geting the printer onto the network will most likely take a bit more effort than you'd expect... in that the sequence of menu options you need to select on the Printer to get to the point where you input your wifi password is likely not on the quickstart guide)
I think the inkjet printers get a lot of hate due to the ink cartridges. While understandable, it also tends to overshadow tanker system inkjet printers like the EPSON L-series.
Brother printers are enterprise oriented in many cases, and are (for now) may be the only option that works almost without recollection of data. Laser ones at least. There is an opt-out option while installing and I tested mine with my firewall and (to my technical knowledge) is not sending anything out the internal home Wi-Fi. Nevertheless "Ap Isolation" (for the ones who can) and using a separated network for IoT is always important.
Bother laser printer. Might not work well with the phone, but use it by usb on linux is great.

I use hide my email by icloud , pretty good
Save your money on the RPi, buy a Dell/HP office PC. SFF machines a few years old cost less and have more power than the Pi. Low end CPU is all you need unless you're transcoding x265/HEVC or AV1. Then you need resize-BAR for current low-profile GPUs
Best suggestion for a printer is Brother laser. For now there's no DRM, but the prices are higher as a result, and laser is not photo quality. Nowhere near it.
re: printers and Linux: I've had a good experience with the Brother HL-L3230CDW over ethernet (wired). My Linux Mint and Debian 12 machines see it on the LAN with no special setup.
Same for me with Brother and Arch.
Streaming in local network needs a very fasy CPU for high quality
11:13 Is that GrapheneOS you covered up? If so, why cover it up?
Some problem between the two. From a year back
@@siddhartaghosh100 Between GrapheneOS and...?
I don't think it makes any sense to give an anonymised email to one's bank. But to the crowd of sites one signs up to and purchases things, of course.
Also be careful with intermediate payment services, they might give the email address you signed up to them with away to the vendors (e.g. Paypal does it, and I don't think there's any way to stop it). This is an obious security weakness as well as a data mining bounty, but at least give them a random one as well.
While I still have sites to move over to an alias, I don’t give my actual email address out anymore. If a site has a data breach, I don’t way to change my actual email address to avoid spam. I also want to know if a site sold my address. I’ve already caught one site who did that.
Yeah I hate how PayPal shares your email, name etc with every purchase. I've managed to enter a 2nd address which I can switch to briefly for online purchases of digital items. Some things can't be changed or added to. For some reason when I tried adding a new 10 digit phone number it only accepts 9 digits so then won't accept it.
5:00 faraday jail?
12:03 you're known for being a hypocrite so that's expected
