Are there any downsides to opening up the server-side code too? Would it also compromise other banks’ security, since these banks need to interoperate?
I mean ask (or more: convince) your boss for permission to make the code publicly available.
Ask your boss.

Jailbroken Amazon Kindle Paperwhite 2 with Koreader installed. Never really bothered to take notes while reading (let alone sync them), so I’m gonna follow this thread.
I download my books from Soulseek and manage/transfer them using Calibre.
I tried editing my config.yml
as the guide suggests but the problem persists. The problem seems to be that I’m using MariaDB instead of MySQL (pdo_mysql
is compatible with MariaDB). Is there anything more I can do or should I try installing MySQL?
EDIT: Purging MariaDB (Debian repo ships this instead of MySQL) and reinstalling it with sudo apt install default-mysql-server
fixed the problem. Thank you.
Do you have any info on Viber being a bad service privacy-wise? It’s a lesser-known messenger that prides itself on its privacy policy but I can’t find any info on it being the case or not.

I just simply sent a message to everyone I kept in touch on Telegram to switch to Matrix/Element and guided them through the registration to a local homeserver thanks to one of my friends’ blog posts.
The easiest way to convince your friends to switch is to just make the switch and help them sign up and use the service.
It’s completely open and it’s just another fee you can pay. Switch to KeePass if you want restriction-free password management.
This site covers the social cooling effect of these services and how the data you give out may be used against you by banks, insurance companies etc. It’s worth reading through (4 minutes). https://www.socialcooling.com/
*logs onto Soulseek instead*
Speaking about notifications, did you check out your phone’s battery conserving settings? My friends having a Samsung or Xiaomi also have this issue due to aggressive restrictions on less-used apps. You can find more info and workarounds here: https://dontkillmyapp.com
Yes, you can set a timer when you want Locus to share the location (every Monday and Tuesday from 8-20 for example, but you can set it to 24/7 if you input the times right).
Did you check out Locus? It’s an end-to-end encrypted location sharing utility designed for decentralized servers running Nostr. It’s free and open source software that secures that your location will most likely never be shared with entities out of your control.
Go on there and share some of your stuff, if you want. We’ll be glad if people help keep the network alive. ;)
And all the fears you hold so dear
