Google requires you to register an application and get it approved to log in with OAuth, you can't just use it with arbitrary callback URLs. Why should I need to ask Google permission to use my own data, or ask for Google's permis

Sorry, I misunderstood the previous comment. I thought you were worried about other people pretending to be you to your friends to trick them. Is what you are asking this? 1. I install Beeper. 2. I log in to Beeper with my Apple ID, for the

So wait, if I send people messages from a different number and say I'm /u/ceejayoz's new number, they will believe me? What is stopping me from buying a second-hand old iPhone and doing this without Beeper?

Reverse engineering for the purpose of interoperability is explicitly allowed. Also, breaking the TOS is usually not illegal. TOS of a random company is not the law, otherwise you would get into trouble non-stop from random websites and app

You have a garbage sandbox if you can get viruses that easily. People expect much better from modern operating systems.

Much easier than waiting for a suitable job opening at Unity, getting a job at Unity, and then just cloning Unity and fixing things yourself.

You can run Android apps on almost any non-Apple brand of phones, Windows PCs, Linux, Mac OS and Chromebooks. You can run iMessage on Apple devices, nowhere else. Surely you see the difference.

Just like there is XWayland today to make it possible to use a Wayland system with X apps, there are already similar solutions to run Wayland apps on an X system. If you run `cage`, it will run a Wayland application in its own sandboxed win

I doubt it will be so hard to build. Folks build X servers for Linux, Mac and Windows right now. If anything, X will probably outlive Wayland.

As another paying Kagi user, I feel that this is not a waste of money. A browser that blocks tracking and advertisements by default is not only good for the users privacy and security, it directly hurts their #1 competitor. It's two bi

It does, it even upvotes it automatically I think. But neither of those dupes are actually the same URL, so it didn't kick in.
