That’s just a passcode for practical purposes

This is the case on iOS as well but restarting takes longer and more explicit interactions than pressing a button five times

I don’t know how he thinks he’ll reduce ultra-processed foods but that’s probably not the worst. Other stuff is 🤮

What exactly does Signal have to offer if one already uses iMessage with contact key verification?

Not the same thing since this the device is still partially decrypted.

No you can’t discharge private student loans through bankruptcy either.

I don’t think peertube will ever truly be successful, because hosting and distributing video content is just extremely expensive as it is so large.

And what would Apple be able to do about it? They don’t have your password*, so they’ll be just as unable to decrypt the device as the police.

*you can give them your password via iCloud I believe but you don’t have to

Damn I hope the Iranians are more successful next time.

I strongly disagree with this. In practice, supporting chrome does not imply supporting safari and vice versa. In particular, Safari is much, much slower about adopting new web technologies. Google basically implements support for anything they can think up, Apple waits for it become a ratified standard and then implements it only if they want to. Their JavaScript implementations are also completely different.

In that case it could still end up in a situation similar to weed, where it is legal according to states but not to the federal government. Especially for those states that legalized abortion access via constitutional amendment rather than a simple law.

If what you’re referring to is behavioral problems, the more obvious explanation to me is that as kids spend less and less time being physically active, they become more restless and feel under-stimulated when they have to sit in school all day.

Yeah it is insane that such a large company that works with the military is allowed to be privately owned, it’s pure waste.

The lemm.ee admin is Estonian I believe so it doesn’t seem like abuse.

More competition for CPUs in laptops/desktops/servers is a good thing, especially if these can compete on efficiency.

If I could game on my MacBook Pro I already would be. There’s a decent library of games that can run but it’s a lot more work than a windows or Linux box if you want to venture beyond 64-bit native ports.

I’m the reverse. As I get older, all the things I used to consider deal breakers just don’t matter as much. I don’t really care about how upgradable or repairable the device is, I’m just gonna pay Apple for the upgrade and pay them again to fix it. Whenever I have to solve an issue on my gaming PC I get an inch closer to just throwing it out and buying whatever overpriced gaming laptop comes working out of the box.

Similar tools have been written that support locally hosted models if that’s what you mean.

Why? Your boss sure does

In practice, yeah that’s how that works. Compare the Zionist occupation in Palestine, and consider ISIS, both were/are brutal theocratic regimes founded by militants in the levant, hated by neighbors who fight to protect their people and lands. Yet their relations with the west couldn’t be more different.
