I’m proudly a queer weirdo:)

That news source is a joke. Go to the homepage and its filled with weird anti Chinese stuff about cannibalism in Shanghai! The first article on the homepage is:

Emperor Kangxi imprisoned him and raised him like a pig, so out of boredom he could only have children for fun, resulting in him fathering 29 children.

This is not a credible news source.

The “Chinese company profile” you linked is a VC research page, not an authoritative source.

There could be weirdness going on here though despite all that. The claim they are based in Singapore while Huabing Zhou of Wuhan University clearly has input (when I looked him up, the RustDesk team page was a search result on DDG, despite his name not appearing on the linked page) is a little odd. But as long as all the code is open I’m not too worried for self-hosters.

Looks like overworked devs did some pretty bad practice with certs, not as big of a deal as people are making it out to be. https://hackaday.com/2024/03/01/this-week-in-security-forksquatting-rustdesk-and-mms/

Can you please provide any sources for any of your claims?

I did some digging and there’s no real basis for most of these claims. The company seems to be backed by a weird commercial OSS VC, with a founder with a hand in crypto bullshit, but that doesn’t mean that the application is insecure. Also, for what its worth, I couldn’t find any links to China outside of the rendezvous server thing.

I checked the wiki page edits - not sure which one you’re referring to but I didn’t see anything malicous or suspicious.

This article summed it up well https://hackaday.com/2024/03/01/this-week-in-security-forksquatting-rustdesk-and-mms/

TL;DR it’s not an issue

Came here to make sure medlife crisis was mentioned

159 out of 196 is nearly 80% of countries in the world that celebrate IWW on May 1st. Stop spreading nonsense.

The idea that labor day is celebrated in September, and not May 1st, since that commemorates the Haymarket Affair.

You want a commercial signage display. They’re large TVs with absolutely no smart bullshit that are designed to be on for long periods of time.

I wouldn’t use it for boiling water - I’d stick to glass for that

I got the ACCUPOUR 1 gallon measuring pitcher on amazon after being recommended it from City Steading Brewing, who was poetic about it, and I wasn’t disappointed! I never thought I’d love a pitcher but I love this one.

Raised dark markings with dual scale metric and imperial, amazing handle and the spout is AMAZING! I’m able to take ½oz samples from a gallon of liquid into a shot glass no issue.

They make smaller ones too, which I haven’t tried but work the same.
