What i meant generating keys is not equal to generating certificate in the common sense of this word, it only works with randomly generated keys , passwords are not save way to encrypt data unless you can remember random sequence of characters for every client you have. If look at WireGuard protocol will get all the answares.

WireGuard doesn't use certificates it works similar way to SSH with keys, also they have open source clients for Android and iOS a few clicks configuration

also they probably, like every ISP nowadays know when what IP to who was assigned so dynamic IP is not guarantee for anonymity

dnscrypt-proxy can do that for you, downside slow DNS server means slow DNS responce time

Solution for this is to tunnel the traffic through encrypted connection to servers in countries that respect persons privacy(if that is true nowadays). The easiest way is to use WireGuard, easy to set up uses only one port and have clients for many devices.

Due to the outbreak global supplies will be disrupted also there are people that take it as prescription medicine for arthritis, its relevant people to have access to the synthesis of it. Here is a paper describing cost effective way to synthesis it [1].Its not trivial task but good information to have access to. Had a quick look at the precursor chemicals used in this synthesis they are sold from global chemical suppliers and doesn't seem to have any specific restriction for sell.

Reading this, Snowden have to feel lucky he managed to escape in Russia , if he didnt he pretty much will face the same fate as Assanges. Assange mistake was he was counting too much on Ecuador's officials but they got pretty easily bribed by US government.

I'm perplexed by this article what so special about tesla hardware except some custom ASICs , few days ago there was article disusing the software side of Tesla cars didnt took traction on HN , its just Ubuntu based linux with fail save boot feature, a bunch of shell scripts and QT based user interface. The interesting questions is, is it viable someone to make fully open source linux distro for tesla cars and how legal is it to install alternative software for Tesla cars , just like a PC, customer buys the hardware but have a choice to install what ever software he wants.

but this proofs my theory that MS is keeping internally different repositories for win 10 also we know that some tracking services are disabled for Win 10 enterprise which leads to logical conclusion that tracking services could potentially limit OS I/O ops.

Houdini is nice peace of 3D software they are going for a lot of years now leading to 90s good that they added some affordable licensing for indie artists recent years but again for starter 3d artist Blender is best choice after that its up to the person what direction he/she will choose.

My guess is Linux is still mainly used in server environment so utilizing more threads as possible is necessity so more contribution is going into this ,

You may be right but keep in mind that there are a lot of talented people that cant afford paying for software such as Cinema4D and that's the beauty of Blender you have access to 3D software with good amount of possibilities without paying anything and the community is pretty huge and getting a momentum
