A cool quote...but fictional and not applicable in the real world. Has "both sides are the same so I'm not gonna vote" energy, which let's the greater evil win. Kudos for maintaining neutrality and helping screw everyone over.

When a power imbalance that vast is concerned consent doesn't exist.

At the time, sure. However, over a decade after the fact:

Maintaining that her affair with Clinton was one between two consenting adults...

So if the power imbalance was why she consented, you'd think she'd set the record straight and say she was pressured or forced into it despite saying yes at the time. But she didn't. Ergo, she consented and your argument is invalid.

Other than Google pay...

Google Pay's Tap to Pay does not work on GrapheneOS.

Just did a super quick glance, but are you really considering QKSMS maintained?

Startpage, which is still recommended over at privacyguides.org

For now. There is an open pull request to remove it due to Startpage fingerprinting users (I didn't delve into it to see if it's true, but that was the reason given). And just because it's been suggested doesn't mean it will be removed, so time will till.

So is bullshitting. More so, only human minds can bullshit.

And a bull's anus.

This chud uploaded potentially sensitive information to a public service.

A bill draft, which eventually/maybe gets signed and is public by its very nature is sensitive?

People really need education on how to intelligently use these services.

Agreed on principle, but I don't see how what he did was wrong...other than calling ChatGPT a subject matter expert.

Is there a Lemmy community like R4R? If there is, I can't find one.

Just did a search, and there are 3 with none active.

Unfortunately the fact that NFC can't be used on anything that's rooted anymore is kind of a deal breaker.

NFC can be used on GOS, and they frown on rooting.

If I could use google pay and my normal banking apps with GrapheneOS I would switch to it today.

It's due to PlayIntegrity API wanting a "Google certified OS," which is ironically less secure than hardware attestation that GOS supports. I doubt Google would change their model, but your bank might. Some banks do support GOS, and they have changed at the request of their customers before. Send them the GOS documentation and you might get lucky.

We need hardware requirements so that not just pixel phones can get grapheneOS.

GOS has strict hardware requirements to increase security that currently only Pixels meet. They won't, and shouldn't, compromise their standards which would give you a weaker OS. Want GOS on other vendors? Convince those vendors to up their hardware game.

I know that's the point, which is why I said it. The person I replied to asked if they were missing something, so I was attempting to educate them on said point. Then they edited their post to add the /s after the fact.

The difference is that you are expected to pay. Louis and FUTO are very explicit about this.

I don't really follow them, but I did skim the Grayjay FAQ, and it never says that. Just that they make money by selling licenses, no subscription, and it works identically without paying. I don't suppose you have a source that is more explicit than the official Grayjay FAQ page?

case in point: people still use twitter.

And WhatsApp over Signal/Molly.

Sounds to me like you need an upgrade. I tried Jerboa, but it felt like it always lagged behind or was buggy for some reason. Then I switched to Voyager, which gets constant updates. Also, it's a PWA, so I don't need an app and it can thus be used on mobile, tablet, desktop, etc. Not to mention the theming is one of the best, in my opinion.

The ending period? Not for me on Voyager.

Even their server codes are publicly available

Last I checked, their provided server code lags behind their production server, so you rarely get to see the current version. However, that's kinda the point of E2EE, is you don't have to trust the server.

Most browsers I run into, you can search from the address bar. You can also disable or point to a different search engine, if you want. So you could skip going to the site. That aside...most browsers would accept google.com and not need the full https://www

I say most anecdotally as I haven't tested them all.

I don't know, sounds reasonable chief.

They want to talk to everyone so they're blocking someone/anyone? That does not sound logical. If that instance defederates, all that person has to do is just not use them as their home instance. They're saying they want to talk to everyone, but they're going out of their way to not do so (by blocking an instance, for whatever reason). Makes no sense to me.

Is Eternity still in development? I don't think there has been a release for 6+ months.

With most PC things (RAM, disk space, CPU, etc etc), too much is better than too little, provided you have the resources.
