Thanks, that seems to be the right answer. I just recently migrated everything to Apple + iCloud, but now it appears to be time to switch to synology+pixel/graphene+Firefox Apparently obsidian.md can be end-to-end encrypted through the

It is exactly. And I have my opportunity to start migrating to Android before the big update.

> And all this for what? Child molesters and rapists (the worst of the pedos) create new photos and videos, that are in none of the databases, so you never catch them. Their direct sponsors (paying customers) get the photos first, and ag

No, because they’re not scanning for CSAM, they’re scanning for hashes. That hash database needs to be updateable for it to be useful at all. A significant part of the policy protections are implemented off device, so those can’t be trusted

The folks who choose iPhone in part because of a perception of relative privacy and respect for the user (like myself) will think twice. My two concerns are that Android as an ecosystem is almost certainly still worse, and that the vast maj

There shouldn’t be a single line of code, or single binary blob, on my device that can compute these photo DNA hashes. Apple could always go ahead and add that functionality in an update, but then there would be a big backlash and the oppor

I don’t understand the downvotes. Are people really in denial about the fact that covid is endemic and will be with all of us for the rest of our lives and our children’s lives, just like the flu? We already had our technological miracle (t

If injury in a car accident where people are wearing seatbelts is relatively likely, that should totally change the narrative: - expecting seatbelts to prevent all traffic injuries becomes unrealistic (it never was but that doesn’t mean it’

For now. I was seeing temps pretty close to 120 last year. It was dry, but who knows how the climate will change either the humidity or the high temps. 130+ doesn’t seem inconceivable and that gets pretty close to the limit.

I don’t know why you would limit the discussion to #1 when #2 is the only part that is really relevant to the topic at hand. Assertion 1 is offered as evidence that TT wouldn’t need to actively suppress trans content for it to be unpopular.

As a queer person who uses TikTok, I think you should take some time to challenge your assumptions and get some more information. This video might be informative: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MYEtQ5Zdn8 I should correct

Its a joke/meme. On TikTok, you can see the original sound a video uses, and find all the videos that use that sound, including the original: https://www.tiktok.com/music/You-dont-have-a-double-chin-681... This vi

This is an out of touch take from the TikTok=China=bad days of 2019/2020. I see queer creators on TikTok all the time. Quite frequently actually. This was the second video that showed up for me today, with 500k views (it is propaganda

Last I checked, VNC wasn’t really comparable to RDP in terms of performance. I work in a remote session basically all day long and it’s suitable for graphics and video among everything else. Has that changed recently?

The trend towards larger homes and storage probably contributes to accumulation. I’m in a ~450 sq ft studio and having to consciously think about where a new purchase will go cuts down on buying “junk” and makes me a lot quicker to sell or

You might have adhd. I fall into extremely high doses because a high level of stimulant use is needed to get to a “normal” baseline. Of course tolerance is also a factor. I’ve been reducing my intake, for a while it was well over 1g/da
