And I didnt. You nibbled at a detail of the op and I did the same with you. Its always okay as long as nobody does it to oneself.

Thats not important here.

Although I agree with the facts, binary „diagnosing“ isnt the only way to go about your life. You, your parents and your doctor can make decisions without a piece of paper. The problem here to me seems to be that „you‘re not diagnosed so you dont have it“ has been a valid strategy for too long and needs to go already. Seeing that your child (eg) shows signs of autism doesnt mean you need to put them in special everything but people are rightly pissed that they have suffered irreperable damage to their bodies for self medicating an issue that could have been mitigated if not soved, were our society able to accept imperfection and not reinforce stereotypes at every turn.

Maybe trying to get out from an overprotective parent or unburying yourself from decades of gaslighting? Are you a psychologist? You seem to hold a very high opinion of your ability to judge people.

They‘re just treating him like this because it is less common to kill a CEO than students or black people.

I hope nobody changes that, sincerely. I really hope that, from the bottom of my heart. If someone was to hunt CEOs for sport, that would be so awful! Oh dear lord I would not want to live in a world where poor innocent CEOs were hunted like dogs.

The reason I believe sequels are doing good is:

1. movie theaters have been perverted into massive and expensive hype fests
2. in strong opposition, past movie theaters were not expensive to go to and got you entertained in a social setting
3. due to the rise of large chains, small and cheaper theaters have died out.
4. assumption: the price to rent a movie for your theater will probably be horrendous by now
5. sequels have kind of a known quality which lowers the hurdle
6. that means new movies could be watched in smaller theaters and would have to be sustainable for those

There you have sections leftist and fascist extremism and numbers to go along. Leftist crimes are around 4k, fascist around 23k iirc in the recent past (2023)

Germany in the meantime: „leftist extremism is threatening the democratic system“ [quote from the constitution protection agency] while fascist crimes outnumber them 5 to 1. All that while the EU keeps trying to sneak chatcontrol by us through the backdoor, again and again.

I dont have that much hope for our world tbh.

Thats pretty awesome. Thanks for mentioning it.

Very true. You can also decide not to pay for IP which is a lie anyway and freely watch and listen to and read whatever you like, play all the games that are not gambling dens in a box and use libre software whenever you can and most importantly tell all your friends about it.

i can see how this would be an interesting function. sadly, we’re, nowhere near an end user ready experience in any non corporate messenger. it very much still depends on how tech savvy the user and how good the admin is. until that changes I’m gonna unilaterally say no to reinventing any wheels and say fix the stuff we have before adding more functionality.

Its not more open source. It is at all. Signal is dependent on the backend which is as proprietary as bluesky. You can absolutely not self host it which technically binds you to the next single point of failure.

Some use open source alternatives since signal still has the off switch to your communication. I personally use matrix for over a year and its pretty good. But its not polished so you need patience and a good admin.

im daily driving the pinetime on a postmarketos phone. it is glorious. but you kinda need to want to stick it to the man for maximum pleasure because thats whst youre doing. thats how it feels to me anyway.

The right cant meme

That was unexpected.

I‘d say its bearable compared to the others. Blocking people does make it a lot better though.

I did quite some reading in my time, as I mentioned. The methods you are describing are riddled with ifs and buts. The reality is that even online systems arent hacked if they dont have obvious flaws like passwords in root ssh. on the other hand tools like john the ripper can break each and every common encryption given the right circumstances. Its no difference. Its all just marketing.

I‘m not that bad at rhetoric either but I avoid it when I can.

Your argument is empty. Privilege escalation attacks are plain old cves that get found, evaluated and fixed. You need access to the phone, mostly in an unlocked state to get anything to work like that, same as with a computer.

I know a couple of pen testers and I would definitely know if there were large differences between operating systems securitywise.

You do realize that this is bullshit, right?

Its typical fearmongering (in fact the same article too) that I have been sent a ton of times by low tech users that fanboy for graphene.

There is no such thing as „physical port attacks“. It also works very different on phones then on computers. You can for example use i2c on an iphone to crack it open which somewhat straightforward to do but still has zero implications for daily use. The linux apps are desktop apps and as such dont have any chance to get through all of the open source community‘s eyes undetected.

Its a completely backwards take that assumes using bad faith software written in the dark by proprietary vendors which just isnt real.
