Well the real irony is that iPhones have implementations of MTE, and now Google Pixel does not. Walled garden or not, iPhone is the winner here at the moment.

I think it’s the company’s job to put the tools in place for parents to turn on and configure. In the same way you use a hammer to hit the nail to hang the painting, you need the tools in place for parental controls.

But it’s also up to the parents to actually USE these tools. If the parents don’t turn them on, then the parents are at fault. And if there were gaps in these controls that Meta was aware of, then Meta was at fault.

Though the problem here is that Meta probably knew what they were doing, and they were likely doing so because they profited from it. Meta requires continued engagement to make money from ad revenue, and you do that by addicting the people using it. It’s always about the money.

I bought a Switch 2 and used it to play Donkey Kong and Mario Kart. They were fun, but now there’s no more games for it really.

There’s no new Switch 2 games even lined up right now as far as anyone’s concerned. And they decided it’s better to remake Star Fox again rather than make a new one, it felt like a big middle finger.

Disgusting. This is my representative, I unfortunately voted him in.

Our president is a pedophile and we still get the “for the children” bullshit. How about making a law requiring tracking the data on the Epstein class phones instead?

I sent a letter to him, hopefully enough people do.

You are exactly correct

That’s hilarious though ngl

But this man never needs to worry about anything anymore. I’d probably “work every day” knowing that I have the pleasure of stopping whenever I want, and having everything you could ever want right at your fingertips at any given moment.

I don’t think that the founders are bad people. If you look at their history of work, they have done enormous amounts of work in the computer security sector. The founder, however, did run a cloud based WPA cracking service.

Meredith Whitaker, who is the president, used to work at Google doing research for “issues related to net neutrality measurement, privacy, security, and the social consequences of artificial intelligence”.

In 2018 she then staged walkouts at Google over concerns of sexual misconduct and citizen surveillance.

The people on Signal’s board seem to be trustworthy people with a pretty airtight background. You have to worry more about the mobile operating system compromising you than do you about Signal.

I’m hoping that the next gen Steam Deck gets a coprocessor that will allow it to use less power in sleep mode, and also download games and updates in the background while the screen is off or in sleep mode.

You’ve probably seen people with mommy and daddy issues before, but this is the first time we’ve ever witnessed a billionaire with severe mommy and daddy issues.

Dude wants attention and doesn’t care how he gets it. Helps a lot to be a Nazi too.

Easy: you don’t.

Nobody has the balls to chase these ghouls down for illegally accessing information, most especially because our government is the ones enabling them to do this.

I wonder if Amazon is pushing these “protests” to drown out the real ones.

I’ve never heard this and wouldn’t have believed it even if I did.

Most likely it will work with a VPN, yes. But having lived in America for so long, I never thought I would expect to have to use a VPN to access a website with content censored by our government.

I thought it looked like CloudFlare. Does that mean the US government is leveraging Cloudflare in order to block whatever they choose, assuming it has that as its underlying architecture?

F-Droid is great, but it’s only for FOSS. So it won’t host content like TikTok on it.

You’re right lol

APKPure

It looks a little sketchy to me, I’m seeing mixed things on reddit about it.

An alternative application you can use to download Google Play apps is the Aurora Store (https://gitlab.com/AuroraOSS/AuroraStore), but I think it still obtains the files from Google Play.

For some reason I can’t edit my post, however I wanted to add that I attempted to post this to reddit under the /r/Android and /r/google subreddits, but Android is only mod approved posts, and the Google subreddit just straight up removed my post without even informing me.

Isn’t it possible to just move the site under a different domain name, or have mirrored secondary servers in an entirely different location in case the primary one gets taken down?

Looks like everything is essentially in the same spot UI wise, but with a native application that hopefully gets moving a lot faster.

I’ve noticed that currently on Bitwarden, for auto fill it takes 6-7 seconds just to get authenticated with fingerprint and fill in the username and password field. That should hopefully be down to like 2 or 3 seconds.
