It’s a vulnerability precisely because people always swarm to defend Signal in stories like this, as though using Signal means the authorities (or other bad actors) can’t read your messages. Seems like every six months there’s some story involving Signal users getting hacked, and every time there’s a rush of wellacshuallys explaining why it wasn’t really Signal’s fault. (that last one is particularly egregious because I remember people defending it as “it wasn’t Signal, it was their partner who they subcontracted and gave your personal data to”, which is crazy levels of mental gymnastics.)

Security is more than just encryption. If you flag something up as “hey use this if you want to hide from the Government” and have a personal phone number attached to it, that’s like a red rag to a bull.

(edit: LOL, it’s hilarious how many people think they’re making great rebuttals in the replies when all they’re doing is proving my point. One child even flew directly into screaming at me. Signal fanbois are even worse than Apple supporters)

Reminder that like 90% of his election campaign was telling everyone that sleepy people are unfit for office.

kids today don’t know what a webring even is

sucks that newgrounds get the credit even on the knowyourmeme page. Yeah weebl uploaded it there too, but I hate that people think “newgrounds” before they think the actual creator who ran their own site that wasn’t entirely made of other people’s stuff

A lot of really bad shit happens in China, you just won’t hear about it

I know bad shit happens, and we do hear about it. What I’m saying is unrelated to whether China are good or bad, and absolutely nothing to do with Uyghurs.

All I was saying is that we would not be reacting nearly the same way if China started running bombing missions against civilians in countries thousands of miles away.

Imagine if China or North Korea were doing this

People are downvoting based on what they want the law to be rather than how it actually is. Trump’s promise is functionally the same as promising tax cuts, it’s just that he knows how to phrase it in a way that makes people feel more directly connected to it.

There’s no good solutions that don’t involve ending poverty as a whole, and the Epstein class have not given their consent to end poverty.

Once again Tim Cook has succeeded in picking the optimal most embarrassing amount of time to copy their competition. I’m becoming increasingly amazed at how Apple manages to maintain this illusion of being prestige innovators worthy of a 5T market cap.

Thanks. I think the single biggest barrier to the population as a whole eating more ethically is the way that veganism as a movement has taken on this absolutist dogmatic stance that makes it a dealbreaker for most people. If you make people feel as though cutting their meat intake by 50% is pointless because you’re still going to call them murderers, why would they make the effort?

They sell delicious sand as well. My favourite is tuna sand.

I still get a chuckle out of the PIN pads in Spain when they say “Numero Secreto Correcto”

You mean like how the Biden administration put in a bunch of safeguards to stop convicted felons and Nazis getting into power? oh wait

I’m not eldritch, I just look after myself

It is lovely, though in some sort of nod to nominative determinism it is also the only place in Japan I’ve ever been approached by a pimp on the street asking if I wanted to fuck

I am over 500 years old and I have never once in my life seen someone dangle a pendant from the bottom of their t-shirt like that. Is this some new fetishwear that I’m not furry enough to know about?

Or everyone can just do their own projection where their house is the centre of the Earth.
