No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why does most of the world use WhatsApp as their messaging app rather than RCS/SMS?English
471·5 days agoOthers are mentioning price per message, but also important to remember that in the 2000-2010s outside of the United States, when traveling from country to country, you usually had to get a local SIM card for a provider in that country, During your vacation, you’d have a new number for a month when no one could contact you over normal text messages which was a problem. WhatsApp became popular so you could keep chatting with friends abroad even if your phone’s SIM card changed during your vacation.
Since most people from the United States don’t travel outside the country, and vacation time is rather limited, this wasn’t a problem for them, but for the rest of the world, a solution was needed that removed the cell carrier from the equation.

Technology@beehaw.org•U.S. Citizen Who Deleted Phone’s Data Says His Prosecution Puts Privacy at RiskEnglish
1·19 days agoSounds like the best workaround for this is to have a deadman switch to delete all data if the phone hasn’t been unlocked in a 24 hour period? Then it is your inaction that results in the destruction of the data, and you’d still be complying with the statute.

5·26 days agoI only had one encounter with Be My Eyes of someone trying to classify their comic book collection by the year printed on the cover which was too small for them to read. It was pretty neat and I was happy to help, but it took way longer than 5 minutes, haha. I think though that with computer vision, a lot of the requests aren’t routed to volunteers anymore though.

Political Memes@lemmy.world•This already counts as socialist?English
4·28 days agoManhattan was famously built with almost no alley ways to save space so the only place to put the garbage is on the street. You’ll literally have piles of garbage and yet people won’t want to give up a few parking spaces to put dumpsters in, so that garbage is all out on the sidewalk. It’s disgusting.

17·28 days agoThe level of corruption in the Adams administration was laughable. One of them is now indicted because she wanted a cameo on the Hulu series “Godfather of Harlem” in exchange for canceling plans to install bike lanes. Another tried to bribe a reporter in a chip bag filled with cash.

Games@lemmy.world•Epic Games Store will get a Linux version sometime "soon"English
2·1 month agoIt was kinda annoying that you had to fight for it. I can’t imagine how many people who put down the game for a few years and checked up on it to find the Linux version is no longer supported and they’re beyond the point to request a refund.
According to TinEye, this image was from at least 2019, and I don’t think it was decriminalized back then? Wikipedia has some info from a few years earlier where they cite a survey saying a majority of all police recorded drug offences in the UK were for possession of cannabis.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Trying to flash 256GB image to almost 256GB flash drive, space is barely not enough!English
3·1 month agoI think it’s pretty common for less reputable storage manufactures to have a drive which reports to be a certain size, but trying to read data back from some sectors doesn’t work. There is this windows tool to check the drive: https://www.grc.com/validrive.htm
All banks I’ve done business supported exporting CSV or OVX files of transactions so you don’t need a third party connection into your bank account, although that is an option. It depends on region, but banks are only required to retain data for certain periods of time, and keeping a history of each transaction can be useful for budgeting or investing.
