I recall a YouTuber who used their cats butthole for their fingerprint sensor to unlock their phone. It could be that they wanted to try it but never did, though. It’s been like a decade.

I got laid off and needed something to do.

14TB or 140TB? The later is what’s being talked about, so that’s more like 2800 movies. Which more than covers that 1000+ movie criteria.

Don’t tell me how to live my life.

Let me tell you something about the current worldwide political problems we’ve been having…

Too many can cause decision paralysis. Letting people get their feet wet with a light windows experience isn’t a bad thing. And it can lead to finding something more suited to their needs down the road. No need to deluge people in choice right off the bat.

Either that or they were added at different times by two different teams with two different design philosophies.

If there’s only ever one avenue of attack, sure. Your example posits that encryption is the only security layer that exists, which is laughable. Most security breaches happen at the personnel level, not the technical one.

A site does not “become facebook” just because it’s not 100% decentralized from every other possible service. Countless other factors go into it. Not the least of which is the nature of the people running it. If you run a service, and make it nigh impossible for a general public (your main market) to use because you fear it will become compromised, you are basically saying that you will compromise it otherwise, and probably shouldn’t be running that service.

But only accepting one possible alternative is an extreme. You can build in safeguards… but if they’re too rigorous you will drive away potential users. Much like with freedom and security, you need to middle ground between accessibility and defensibility.

If only there were some kind of middle ground… sadly only extremes exist 😔

The rule of internet polls is that the funniest answer is always over-represented.

You should take some time to see the outdoors, it sounds like you’re spending too much time doomscrolling on your phone.

Capitalist institutions push capitalism? What kind of world is this!

You wouldn’t!

Same, I was on it for more than a decade. There’s definitely been dramatic shifts. Dunno what small community that other poster stuck to to not see any changes over a decade and a half, but it must have been fun for them.

You mean Zombo-com?

Wife bad.
