On that note, I wish Firefox had a setting to always load sites in reader mode, when available. Ideally with the ability to set exceptions, though.

Not everyone can do everything at once, and doing something is better than doing nothing at all.

Really? You’re missing out.

They’re not called fever dreams for nothing.

Say what you want, but a fever knocking you out and having you dream weird stuff is the best part about being sick

Idk about saying yes, the recording could be used to stitch together a verbal agreement to a contract.

Obviously not legally binding (at least I hope that it isn’t in most countries), but still a major hassle to deal with.

I like to be vague, use words like possibly or perhaps, and see how long it takes until they realize I’m just fucking with them.

Guess the fines need to climb exponetially, then

I didn’t know that, this is super cool!

If basic coffee is all you want, though:

Well damn, this is great. Too many private email providers still do their own thing in terms of encryption, so that is awesome to hear

DivestOS can also deny internet access, for the people who don’t have a Pixel

And brings the most recent version of something to any system. I’m astounded sometimes by how much a native package can lag behind

One of the big organs of the EU deliberately breaking EU law. Always cool when that happens.

Although, they’ve proven themselves to be so incompetent, I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t actually know EU law.

I volunteer to find out

I like using Linux as much as I like using subs

Well, up to you to decide if pursuing an official diagnosis would help you. For the people who do have it, getting that diagnosis and actually knowing what the hell has been going on this whole time is an enormous relief.

But bridges are still a thing? Okay, Apple. Sure.

Phone numbers harm anonymity, not privacy.

I mean, it was kinda expected and inevitable that one big service was going to reign supreme. Lots of things make push notification a real hassle, like you describe. Speaking for Android as I don’t know much about iOS, Firebase works incredibly well, it’s a super elegant solution, and if Google wasn’t such a shitshow, I’d love it.

But it is a shitshow, in so many ways. So some services encrypt the contents, some don’t send them over those servers in the first place, but the remaining metadata is still shockingly useful for surveillance purposes.

I don’t really know where I’m going with this comment, but as an EU resident, I’d just like to see alternative systems getting more attention.

Idk, it’s just that so many people hear news like this and go: „It is what it is, can’t change it“

Well not with that attitude, that’s for sure

I don’t think I can really fault any Android developer for wanting to use Firebase and be done with it, because it’s just so simple to implement, and generally easy to work with.

But some things should be more important than comfort, shouldn’t they.

You tried to talk about cats in spanish, didn’t you
