That's precisely what it is. The game animations are fairly simple, but you can build a world and write fairly sophisticated game elements/rules/etc with Lua, and the kids actually seem to like the cartoonish models. Once yo

Upon further reflection, I think I've figured out why my kids and I don't see this as exploitative - they're not trying to get rich or famous. I'm not trying to be mean to anyone, but if you look at all of the complaints

My kids (and I) certainly don't see it as exploitation - they love learning to create games, and would be happy to do it even without any chance of payout. I don't think the $1k minimum payout is crazy either, as the overhead of

That's not related to iMessage - that's an iCloud photo library thing. iCloud photo library has never been E2EE.

No, they aren't. You're conflating two completely separate features, and this thread is specifically about the iMessage one. I'd suggest you read up a bit on this - https://www.apple.com/child-safety/ W

That's not what happens with the iMessage feature - that's what happens with the iCloud photo library CSAM scanning feature, and iCloud photo library has never been E2EE.

How is it not still E2EE?

Odd that Wikipedia describes this as a “separatist” movement, when there was no apparent plan to separate from either the state or federal governments. Anyone able to explain that?

No, but you can verify that only photos uploaded to iCloud are scanned, and can verify that photo metadata beyond the security voucher is not generated or sent to anyone but Apple.

There is no major city in California with ‘adequate supplies and management’ - they’re all irresponsible and failing. None have a decent gray water program, almost no new water storage has been built in 40 years, and they dump untreated se

And how do you enforce your mandate? Without the threat of physical violence, any mandate devolves into a suggestion - or worse, handcuffs on the just.

There’s already a drone/anti-drone arms race going on, with tech like microwaves, jammers, nets, and other more classified means of drone flight denial. The drones will be effective for a while, then it’ll become impossible to fly them
