Just a guy trying to promote discourse, photography, freedom, good food, and reason.
Personal privacy is a passion of mine.
Bitwarden for sure! It is certainly the easiest way to increase security on all your accounts by making extremely secure passwords. Plus you can self host it if you want!
True but in this case it’s not populace deciding to make the food import ban, it’s the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). They are using this opportunity to create a impact on Japan’s economy which is already struggling under the strain of inflation the country hasn’t experienced in decades.
It is just political posturing and nothing else. Not out of concern for the Chinese people.
I really wish it had a 3.5mm audio jack. I don’t see what companies stand to earn, other than money, when they remove the headphone jack.
I can see why Apple and Samsung removed it because the they can market their own wireless headphones.
Removing the jack only removes capability, it is not like older phones didn’t have the capability to connect to Bluetooth headphones
This link is to the same article. Was there a reason for posting it?
It doesn’t make sense while if this data, that would usually require a warrant if not already being sold, is allowed to be collected by companies.
Companies may argue that users consent to this in the terms and conditions of when they start using the product but what about those users that aren’t a Google, Facebook or “insert tech corporation here” user? Those users never consented to data collection but their data is being collected just the same.
The issue is not the government buying this data. That is just a symptom of the root cause which is lack of consumer privacy laws.
I really enjoy Darknet Diaries. It is unfortunate he went to a once a month release cycle but I understand it is for a better work life cycle.
If you are a fan of Darknet Diaries I would also recommend Hacked. It has two hosts which have a good dynamic. Plus they don’t touch politics so it avoids any controversy.
What are you talking about?
Is it not possible for two different people to share similar opinions?
I’m glad you pointed this out. We need to move past the “this person said something I don’t agree with so I will never interact with them again”
Identity politics are bad and we should not be beholden to them.
People and their technical knowledge are more than their political views.
Yeah the privacy issues are the largest concern.
However I think because consumers have become used to having cameras and microphones in their house it will likely not be addressed to the degree it needs to be.
Good post. It will be interesting to see how this all turns out but while those temperatures mentioned in the post you provided are hot, it is certainly not the worst in the world. Areas near the equator regularly see temperatures higher than this during the summer. Those nations survive in the hot conditions so I guess the USA will have to adjust as well.
Well what about the East part of the US? The US is a lot more than the desert ridden south west.
Yes Russians (Wagner Mercenaries) have started fighting the Russian Army.
The leader of the Wagner Group, Prigozhin says his fight is against Russian defense leadership. He has not openly said anything against Putin at least from what I’ve seen.
However, don’t mistake this guy for some sort of “freedom fighter” he is still very much in support of the invasion of Ukraine and just thinks the Russian defense leadership has lost its focus and is using the conflict mostly for career advancement.
Well the fact that they are saying it was a catastrophic implosion leads to the thought that it was crushed in a very short amount of time maybe even a few seconds so I doubt they had time to drown.
Well it’s international airspace and nations can fly whatever they want inside international airspace regardless of the proximity to a nation.
Russians do it to Canada and the United States often but it doesn’t make much fanfare because the parties involved handle it professionally
