It’s called leeching

A full year? That’s more than 33 Mooches!

If messages aren’t end to end encrypted, then their contents of the messages can be intercepted by Telegram or any adversary who has access to Telegram’s systems. This is what the US Government was doing with Prism to suck in unencrypted data from ISPs without their knowledge. By not having end to end encryption, you have to trust that Telegram administrators are being truthful when they say they’re not looking at your messages, and that their systems are never compromised by crimegroups or nation states without Telegram’s knowledge.

If it’s a private group they don’t know what’s happening

This is not true, group chats with more than two members on Telegram are NEVER encrypted. Telegram admins have full access to see the contents of these private chats, and have the ability to respond to court orders, but they were ignoring those requests. This is why he was arrested. Google/YouTube respond to court orders and do take stuff down, and actual encrypted messengers like Signal have no way to see the contents of the messages, which is why the owners and operators of these services have never been arrested.

I don’t see why the CEO of Telegram is concerned about laws about scanning of private messages since the vast majority of the communication on Telegram is unencrypted.

When I bought an HDMI capture card years ago, it came with a little card that said “Do not use HDMI splitters to bypass copy protection”

mission failed successfully

What’s the right way to do money math without floats?

Actually how does Lemmy and the Fediverse even work for search engines with regard to duplication? Do each instance only show posts from communities which are moderated on the instance, and dynamically show a robots.txt to ignore federated communities? Or since posts federate, does each instance a post federates to show up in search results? I could see the latter being really annoying to someone who doesn’t understand what’s going on, and keeps getting results for the same exact post, although would be nice to have a replacement for adding site:reddit.com to some search results.

That’s how it is for everyone, right???

Too bad every car has terms and conditions that are privacy invasive: https://www.mozillafoundation.org/en/privacynotincluded/articles/its-official-cars-are-the-worst-product-category-we-have-ever-reviewed-for-privacy/

Hope you live in an area where you don’t need a car to drive to work or to get groceries.

Shhhh with your logical thinking, we need to jump to conclusions and start blaming each other before learning any facts.

I might not be as far (just past act 1), but I haven’t felt the need to grind rosaries (yet). A bunch of times I’d be exploring for an hour and notice I have like 500+ rosaries, and then I get them made into strands till I have to spend them. I don’t think I’ve seen anything on sale for more than 800 rosaries, Maybe it’s different later in the game but at least in the beginning of the game, it doesn’t feel like a chore.

And the voters have an even shorter term memory. Trending downward is nice, but I doubt the shit we’re dealing with now will be in most people’s mind when they vote in 2026 and 2028.

The bootlickers will cheer on ICE, just like in The Boys

Just checked my old account again, and all edited content is still there, with “Fuck u/spez” appearing as the top comment in some posts that are like 12 years old

Even if earth just gets pulled away from the sun a little we are screwed.

I get what you’re saying, but had to laugh at the use of “a little” here. The goldilocks zone in the solar system is roughly the between the orbits of Venus and Mars, and we’re almost right in the middle of it, so “a little” is like 150 million km.

I would imagine that the first issue we would experience would be that the moon would be pulled out of Earth’s orbit first and then we lose the ocean tides and the stable tilt of the earth. It would probably get worse from there.

What was the blunder?

This list is missing 45/47. If you add his qualifications to the list, then I guess reality show host, felon, rapist, etc are also presidential qualifications, but congressperson is still not one? I think it’s safe to say all norms are out the window now and past performance is not anything to bet on going forward.

Now I’m confused
