“solutions” like this presume that age verification/gating is the goal. it’s not. it’s a cover story. the goal is eradicating anonymous publishing. the goal is making strong government ID mandatory to use the internet. any privacy pr

Any local editor that includes any sort of telemetry whatsoever is an instant nonstarter for me. What’s local stays entirely and totally local, always and every time, otherwise what’s the point?

The US/China trade war is intensely relevant to the large scale deployment of renewables in the US.

This is a myth. Larger vehicles are not safer for their occupants; they merely feel that way.

Car insurance. Low flow showerheads. Fuel-inefficient vehicles. Electric dryers. Electric stoves. Appliances that don’t last. Lawn care. Taxes. Social Security. The list is gigantic. Your claim could not be more false.

The reason so many people buy huge trucks in the USA is specifically because heavy machinery (above a threshold) is exempt from such standards.

Which is it? If your first claim is true, why do we need to amend anything? They seem like mutually exclusive claims, to me. Am I missing something?

I’m not sure how the unit counts relate to the idea that vastly more EEs will be required. Sure there is some overhead in scaling manufacturing but I doubt it requires that many more EEs whether your satellite or automotive fleet is 10 uni

There’s a lot more evidence that they are. Do you think the #1 killer isn’t well-studied? This is something everyone cites when I point out that high-cholesterol diets are unhealthy. I get it, cutting out cholesterol foods isn’t fun. But

That sounds like a high cholesterol diet. It’s very easy to get heart disease (the #1 killer!) doing that.

Causing the moderation filter to intervene in the chat; i.e. the goal of the exploit - to avoid causing (prompting) the filter to filter. It's "prompting" in the layperson sense, not the "feeding text into context"

Routing e2ee notification data via APNS is fine, it’s no different than routing e2ee notification data via HTTPs. Your ISP sees the outer ciphertext in both cases (APNS is also mTLS).

Not wanting to work with people who are ok with the MIC is not a sign of immaturity.

This is misinformation, and is false. For many apps, they choose to do it this way. For most e2ee apps, they do not. The notification displayed on screen does not need to be the notification pushed through APNS.

The Macbook equivalent of the iPhone Air. They’re already using the “air” moniker for a mac that won’t fit into a manila envelope, so they’d need a new name. I’ve just been buying expensive parts on eBay. I have two 16GB motherboards now

I collect the 12" macbooks, even today. It really only needs one port; the vast majority of people never plug anything but power into their computer ever. I would pay huge sums for a modern Mx 11-12" ultralight macbook with a rel

These reports seem unhelpful unless you specify the date at which you had this experience, as this thread is about continuous improvement over time.

Forget about saurik; they wanted to countermand their own customers using his code to do things on their own phones they bought from Apple. The contempt for their customers is palpable these days.

Reminder: this is their #1 most used tool for collecting data. Snowden told us of the existence of this program under the codename PRISM. This allows them to download the entire contents of your gmail instantly, directly from Google, witho

I’m not and never have - please contact me directly at the email address in my profile to give me more information about why you think I’m involved in such activities. I’d like to know if someone is joe-jobbing me.

Choosing to fail means you shouldn't begin the project in the first place. Correspondingly, if you are beginning the project, you should not make choices that will result in failure.

This is (mostly, but not entirely) true - but it's also a completely useless statement. It doesn't help anyone change their behavior with regards to seeking privacy day to day, and it doesn't help anyone know what to do to c

Nobody ever voted for mass surveillance. There's no party you can vote for in the US that doesn't advocate for total mass surveillance by the federal government. Don't pretend this is a red/blue thing. The military-in

It was 13 years ago that Snowden told us they were using FAA702 as the #1 source of sigint to warrantlessly obtain any data they want from major service providers. Did you not understand it at the time? Did you not see the news stories? T
