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.

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.

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.

I’ve put countless elderly individuals like yourself onto PopOS! and they’re getting by just fine. This sounds like a you problem.

I had to fire up a Windows VM yesterday. Holy shit its gotten so bad. Glad I don’t need to deal with that shit on a daily basis anymore. I wish people weren’t so scared of Linux.

Once they hired that former cop who bragged about using these RPI’s for “legal” surveillance police operations, I was done with them. This goes completely against the DIY spirit. There are so many better options out there without cops and without snarky Twitter social media managers.

How does your second paragraph tie into what the person you replied to said or even what you said?

You’re assuming that I must take the other position because I called out your position.

They have reasons for theirs, you have reasons for yours.

But here you are again, another post, saying the exact same thing with nothing to back it up other than your feelings.

What you’re doing here is thinking your feelings are facts. You need to back up what you say with facts not feelings. Common sense is a feeling, it’s not an objective truth in the world.

A24 has an online cult following, but they struggle at the box office even with wide releases.
