Sounds like they fixed the glitch.

What else is a CEO supposed to do, work?

They always rebrand features for marketing, you aren’t in a video chat you’re FaceTiming™. You aren’t talking with AI you’re talking with Apple Intelligence™.

There’s no oversight for any of these agencies and they have the means and incentive to backdoor cryptography, what would stop them from doing this morality? There’s no possible way that they both aren’t compromised and all we’re seeing now is them firing pot shots at each other trying to convince the reader to join their honeypot because its sweeter.

Microsoft certainly tries it’s best to keep you locked into their ecosystem by making it inconvenient but not impossible to leave though that’s not the real reason, it’s security. Businesses and especially governments are scared of nation state hackers contributing malicious code to open source products and falsely assume it’s safer to use closed source software because those incidents aren’t public. There’s so much great software out there I’d love to use and the first question I’m asked when I bring it up is can you prove China hasn’t contributed code?

Just set this up last night, it’s very handy for working with pdf’s.

I’d hardly fair to blame the cars for safety when they basically let anyone get one even if they’re incapable of using it responsibly.

Said no Dachshund ever.

No educational programs for smart phones?

I switched to Joplin and it’s been okay, lots of plugins but I’ve stuck to just vanilla thus far. The built in syncing plus encryption built-in makes for easy setup so I didn’t need to setup rclone.

Power cycle the device?

Same privacy policy authorizing them to harvest your data, but older cars have a more limited capability to collect data compared to newer cars filled with sensors, cameras, and phone integrations. Plus older cellular networks are defunct for older vehicles so they can’t just exfil it without you helping or bringing it in to physically access it.

I use Express VPN and the camera permission is relatively new as I don’t have it enabled and it’s never asked me prior to enable it. I dug through the app and found it within their new password manager when you add a new credentials it offers you to help setup 2FA with the major providers and you can optionally scan a QR code with it so it’s a benign convenience feature.

Bluetooth on the other hand I cannot explain unless it’s to proxy any connections Bluetooth devices might make.

I started to ween myself off when they announced they were killing third party apps since I was never going to use that trash app. As the weeks went on and they showed they would rather prioritize their interests over the community I realized things would never change and the idea of what reddit was in my head didn’t match reality so I made a few Lemmy accounts.

There are a few niche subreddits that didn’t come over or I just haven’t found them, honestly I’ve not really looked. It took a bit to acclimate to Lemmy and how things federate and there were a few syncing issues that were fixed pretty quickly as the exodus happened which is really nice. The admins on all the instances seem to have their own biases in how they run their community and those seem to fall in line with the rest of their communities so it doesn’t seem like a big deal as most recognize their differences and try and work together anyway. I think that even though some may disagree or outright hate each other they want the concept of the fediverse to work so they put in the effort which is all anyone can ask of each other.

As for how I’m doing and the fear of missing out, it’s honestly not much different other than a few niche communities that are available off of reddit anyway so I don’t feel like I’m missing out on anything. The only thing we don’t have is a fediverse mascot afaik.

On the graphic it said wifi 5 and the title said wifi 6 and the wifi and Bluetooth icons were swapped for the versions making it look sketchy, but I realized now it says wifi 5/2.4 referring to the frequency.

Out of curiosity what OS or pseudo OS are you running off of it?

That thing looks sketchy as hell, title stats and picture stats don’t even match.

Companies love to install backdoors and proprietary software for drivers that act suspiciously like spyware, it’s their favorite past time. So while the OS may be trustworthy the additional software they install is not.

I wanted to do my own self-hosted storage but for the cost and features I went with Dropbox. It’s $10 a month if you prepay for the year otherwise it’s $12 and you get two terabytes of storage. For that you get all the same things most self-hosted solutions will offer including 30 days of versioning/backups. Additionally it’s pretty popular so most software has built in integration which is convenient but not something you need. Bottom line is doing your own storage can be cheap but adding off-site backups gets expensive and just going straight to off-site backups (cloud storage) is going to be close to the $10-$12 dollars you’ll pay anyway but you have to do all the work.

Four dots for an ellipsis? What a monster!

Some cars even have cameras inside them now to verify the driver, so consider that next time you have sexy time.
