It defaults to master if your account existed before the change I believe.

At least I had to manually change it.

That’s… Not actually a reasonse to what was said?

Sure, that’s all fine and dandy. But it doesn’t change the point that was being made.

The election happened. Here and now, Russia and China tracking me is no different than the US. They’re all authoritarian governments hell bent on stripping rights away.

Now I’m not the same person you replied to. I’m in Canada, so I’m weary of all of them. But if I was in the states, I’d RATHER give my data to an advisory that won’t do much with it. As apposed to the current government hellbent on making life for me and my trans siblings as hard and difficult as possible.

Yes, but reading the page tells you they’ve gotten google to open-source PebbleOS and highly suggests they’re either going to maintain the open source version, or otherwise fork the code.

Let’s not blame fellow workers for doing what they need to survive. Big tech companies are exploitive by nature, espcially H1B visas are basically indebted servitude at this point.

This is about class, not left vs right.

Except this whole article doesn’t apply to android. Android AFAIK has 0 announced plans to do this. So why is it a concern?

When it comes to iPhones, it’s not a shouldn’t, it’s a can’t.

The way iOS limits background process means you can’t. I develop for iOS apps for a living.

There’s still you should never under any circumstances allow unsupported devices to be exposed to the internet or any way. Because that’s how we get bot nets causing DDOS attacks.

An iPhone is not going to be that. This isn’t phones in general doing this, just iPhones.

There are also far more efficient devices for that. More cost effective and more energy efficient.

I understand wanting to reuse old devices for something, but there’s a limit to what is power efficient as well.

You have to find the shop and pay some gold, but when you equip them you get +2 programming and can be combined with BLÅHAJ for +2 gender euphoria.

But now your posturing in the “potential “ can you see how that doesn’t actually help server owners pay the bills they have today?

Like sure postulate all you want, but it’s not a better solution to the actual usable solutions.

The sports betting apps is whataboutism. I don’t care what happens to a different scam when this other scam becomes more popular?

Let me clarify.

Betting is a pleasure activity. Whatever currency that uses is irrelevant.

If someone is selling you profit motivated betting, they’re selling you a scam.

If their method worked, they wouldn’t be selling it. They’d be using it because generally they only work when few know it works.

Can you see how “there’s not a better solution” isn’t addressing the problem that crypto is fundamentally a scam?

Also, you can’t pay your rent with crypto either….

EDIT: if you want crypto to pass my sniff test, you have to explain where value comes from.

Fiat currency is valuable because I can pay my taxes with it. (This is really the only reason it has value).

So what underpins crypto value beyond “it’s the future”

All (capitalistic) money is a scam.

We’re just forced to use a currency because governments say so.

So yes, your crypto is still a scam. Because money still vanishes into thin air when line goes down.

Only available in the EU

You’re trying to please a boomer that’s still angry that email exists in the first place.

Sync the internal drive cache with the disk. IIRC

Because that’ll last
