Natural teeth roots promote bone regeneration around them, while implants don’t. Therefore bone loss with age is worse around implants

No, I didn’t say that. It depends on your risk model. If you are an average Joe don’t worry that services are charging your credit card. If you are hiding from government then better use less online services, and if you must then find ones that accept crypto

TLDR: “privacy” services can’t be bothered and you shouldn’t too if you are not doing illegal stuff.

These “privacy-oriented” services are businesses that need to earn money, not scare away potential clients and avoid legal issues. Accepting cash or crypto is a risk for legal and accounting reasons. They just don’t think it’s worth it.

Now, to link a particular activity on a particular service with you via your payment is not a trivial task. Government can do it, but it really matters if you think you are or will be targeted by it. Data miners can correlate bank payment with an account at a service provider only if both bank and service provider sell or leak data, which is less likely if you are using a privacy a oriented service.

Yay, I can get some targeted ads about data center hardware!

Mullvad has a feature to add random noise into traffic patterns, actually

This is a good point. Maybe setting up a VPN at home would the good option for when I’m on the go

Thanks for the suggestion, but anonymity is not my goal with VPN. I known about tor etc, and it is not working well for everyday web surfing

Well, reddit is doing fine so far. Shareholders are happy

The article says they replaced them with remote workers in India, I’m assuming with even lower wages

I’m running Nextcloud from a Turnkey LXC template that’s available in Proxmox. Runs solid, I have no complaints for performance or stability. But upgrades are manual and very involved. It’s not too complicated, but there is always something that needs extra attention or troubleshooting. I also wasn’t able to figure out Turnkey migration toolset that they suggest to use for major upgrades, such as to new version of OS.

I second this. It makes total sense - computer memory is a volume to be filled with data. They ain’t call parts of a hard drive volumes for nothing.

I have Odroid-N2 with CoreELEC. Works as my media center in living room, but I use it only to stream video from my jellyfin server.

The only problem I have is that I have to control it from a phone app, not a remote. There are ways to do that, but I couldn’t be bothered

Will be there a way to purchase or subscribe outside of Google Play? Or even use the game without google services?

I have a small standalone speaker, not good for TV. I doesn’t want to link with my Google profile, so no voice control from Assistant. So the only way to use it is from their app, or maybe casting

Sonos speaker. I have Google Home speakers around the house and we use them to play music. Sonos almost never get used

This could be caused by the training dataset cutoff date. These models are not being trained on real time, so they don’t have information about recent events. War in Ukraine is lasting longer than 2 years already, and the current Gazan conflict is relatively recent. My quick search didn’t find what Gemini dataset cutoff date is.

A company would use a Microsoft 365 plan that includes Outlook for Office 365, not a Windows Mail app. An the MS365 agreement would come with protections of company data from sharing with advertisers.

In other words, I wouldn’t worry if my company used Outlook. But never log in to your private mailbox from a corporate device.

Sublime is not FOSS

St. Petersburg’s and Moscow’s old stations were built to show off superiority of communist state. That’s where you can see lots of polished stone, sculptures, giant golden light fixtures, stained glass, etc. Focus was not on the people. Then starting around 1970s the stations were built with much more utilitarian design. Modern stations built in Moscow in last decade or so look very nice though.

NYC subway is just gross. I guess they are seriously underfunded to afford proper cleaning and renovation
