There are mandated back doors in most message apps.

Source?

I don’t see this happening. Apple to/from Android are the only texts that the government can easily snoop on.

I’m not calling you a boomer, unless you’re calling the image you posted tankie material and yourself a tankie.

“OK, boomer” attacks a mindset, not a generation

Another example is a pretty big meme from 5 years ago, the 30 year old boomer.

Why do all the 40 year old boomer Lemmy users call anything to the left of the most moderate Democrat “tankie”?

Apple isn’t okay. Apple is forced onto developers. The general population using Apple products requires developers to use Macs. And, last time I checked, it’s a lot easier carrying around one laptop than two. It also doesn’t hurt that Apple products aren’t exactly the quality of off-brand Chinese laptops.

Nothing in that article says what you’re saying.

You literally just googled “photos without permission posted online” and copy and pasted the URL here.

If you knew anything about the law, the constitution, and court cases, you’d know that journalists have unbelievably broad leeway to post whatever is deemed newsworthy, including photographs taken without consent.

And the proof falls on you. You’re the one who needs to show it’s illegal. Everything is legal until it’s not. That person can’t prove legality unless there’s a court case that overturns a law.

Why aren’t you a communist?

No, it’s not my server. It’s well known file host that allows anyone to upload anything to it.

not direction of how games should be made

Of course unions can and do have more power in the direction of the game. Employees can also voice concerns to managers and owners without the fear of a bullshit termination. They’re pretty awesome for everyone.

Not everyone has the space for a dedicated nerd setup like you suburban twats do.

If you care enough, just open it up in a private window or a new profile. Also, unless you don’t want whoever is between you and their server (if anyone is) knowing you watched a TikTok video of a woman going around asking other woman what their car payments are, bad SSL settings is whatever.

Here’s the original link: https://www.tiktok.com/@toyotacargirls/video/7202381347908832558

I just didn’t want to deal with people complaining about “A TIKTOK? ON MY LEMMIES?”

Either way, I can’t win with you people.

I saw this on TikTok and it’s been burned into my brain since.

The amount of money seemingly regular people are dumping into car payments is unreal.

Nobody actually lives in a capsule hotel

I mean.

There have to be people living in capsule hotels in Japan. There are people in Japan living in computer cafes, where the lights are on 24/7. Japan isn’t all sunshine and roses. Tons of people barely hanging on and these cheap ass places let them have at least some sort of dignity. If you work any job in Japan, odds are you’ll have a roof over your head. Same can’t be said in the US, where many homeless people have jobs and can’t afford to be protected from the elements.

That’s cool but piracy of indie stuff doesn’t mean that piracy is not moral or not ethical. Piracy is always very moral and ethical. Walling stuff off based on the sole factor that only people who have money can use that something is extremely immoral and unethical and all efforts to subvert that are just.

Everyone here is an “open-source Linux nerd” because they hate Windows. The only people who hate Windows are "open-source Linux nerds.” You are very smart.

You think everyone who upvotes or participates in the bashing of Microsoft is a “open-source Linux nerd”? You think people who use Windows love Windows and love their business practices and don’t have a history of being shafted?

Just unbelievable with you people.

I see more comments like this than comments of these boogeyman you guys speak of. You guys are doing your own little circlejerk, thinking you’re cool and smart.

Every circumstance it is moral and ethical.
