What would "good tests" look like for something like this?

All my disks are encrypted and I never leave my unattended computer unlocked. Besides, anyone in front of your unlocked password manager can see and extract your password as well.

I just checked the web UI by pasting a link and didn't see a request go out to the domain, so I assume it went through the websocket to FB.

No no, they don't have extra legs, just more feet randomly on their body.

WhatsApp visits links to generate a preview, so presumably FB knows the content of your message because at least the link is leaked.

Spend billions building a base to do what? Invade Belarussian airspace (an act of war) to guard the passenger plane if this incident happens again?

On the contrary, I was excited to finally get it yesterday, even though I already had immunity.

Greece doesn't check ID at the airport either, beyond matching your boarding pass to your name.

NextCloud is great if you need Dropbox-like functionality. For straight-up syncing of a single directory, or multiple single directories, SyncThing is fantastic.

Yes, that is exactly right. The IPA was meant to be how it's pronounced in English, the phonetic is how it's pronounced in Greek, except the e is as you say.

It's not even out of focus, it's motion blur.

It's motion blur, evident from the blurring of the letters. Unless the police added motion blur to the entire photo (why?), they would appear to be stretching the truth.

Do you see any visible fingerprints on the photo? I don't.

Ah, thanks. I tried to use one of those (I think Uniswap) but I remember having to pay for gas and the fees were something like $20? Not worth it for a $100 transaction, but I might be misremembering.

This is correct for the Greek pronunciation, though "re" should be read with a short "e", which is impossible in English, so "ray" is more accurate. The English is /taɪˈriːsiəs/, as above, I guess. Te

I'd also be interested in hearing what UX gripes your audience has, and am surprised to hear you praise Slack, which has lately become the just-good-enough-to-not-be-bad slow and bloated default.

So, conversely, if a company were to deploy massive BTC mining rigs in China, it would be bad for BTC?

I don't understand what a centralized digital currency even means. All I can think of is "it's the same as the regular currency, except we don't issue cash because we hate cash because we can't track it as easily&qu

Is there a usable DEX yet? I tried Bisq and it was quite good, but there's low liquidity (which I didn't really mind at the time).

Android allows sideloading today and none of the things you claim are possible. If you want to interrogate the cellular network for tower locations, you need location permission. Same for WiFi and BT.

I wasn't convinced by this reply either, then I went back and read the actual email. It doesn't mention the problem at all, it's a straightforward sales pitch. Even I ignore tons of those regularly, it's kind of dishones
