  • If there were actually end to end encryption on the messages, they wouldnt have the ability to decrypt the messages for the government when asked. So either A. Meta lied about their encryption, or they are lying about storing users passwords which is arguably worse as many use passwords for multiple uses even when we know we shouldn't. If Meta is required to not use encryption then once more I agree users should not use them for any personal messaging. Which is what it sounds people are preaching against here.

  • Each instance is its own. They are different communities in different places. Turning on thr news in Moscow is going to be different than turning on the news in Kiev. Both groups are discussing similar topics but they likely have tuned out and brigaded different opinions until the community only discusses 1 view openly and all others get downvoted out. Lemmy isn't 1 site, so organizing it may be more difficult.

  • If you turn on the news do you think acquiring all of your information is best from one news channel? Soon as a community grasps a bias they start to hivemind and tune out counter points. I believe having multiple communities with multiple biases to be more secure.

  • Do you believe if you pick up the new york times it will have the same take as the bbc? I want more than 1 car magazine to exist. If one magazine starts to do things I don't enjoy I can use another. Example, threads makes a car magazine, has more user base and everyone flocks to it over time for more frequent content change. Now threads starts manipulating content and putting in more advertisements... either you now have to go through a big change, or you just go to motortrend for a while until they have to hopefully scale back ads and such to keep users.

  • I am not currently buying but I looked at the Hyundai Ioniq? Iconic? Whatever numbers yesterday and from what I saw you could get an AWD ~50k on the road with over 300 miles range and a cost of ~$8-$10 to fill the battery going off prices in the U.S. for electricity.

    That is better than what I need for sure and 1/3 the cost of gas, so I have to say the doubts and againsts are getting pretty small here. I think 0-60 was 5.1 seconds (SUV crossover) that's as quick as I want an SUV to accelerate haha

  • I dont know about watermelons but there are a plethora of plants that can not produce fruit without being pollinated by another plant. Also if you ever self pollinate a plant you'll have to recognize the 2 different parts. Is it just the calling them male/female that bothers you? Edit: I guess I should say plants/flowers can have a sex, fruits I don't think would. They are just seed dispersers I believe.

  • To be truthful the FCC should have forced apple to move off iMessages. Especially due to them registering numbers which they shouldn't have control over. Friend got a new number recently when they changed providers, the new number of course didn't work for any messages that came from iPhones because it was previously used by an Apple user.

    So essentially someone buys a service from Company A. Puts it in their hardware from Company B, yet company C is dictating their ability to recieve messages. The user did this ~June 15th, didnt figure out iPhones weren't able to send her messages to June 20th. So her birthday was June 18th, the same day as fathers day. Most plans almost fell through because her dads iPhone just lies and says the iMessage is read immediately.

    There really should just be a class action lawsuit against Apple that requires them to stop hijacking services from users that are not their customers.

    Sidenote: Apple's first solution they provide for this is to move your sim card to one of their products to deregister from their services. That is so fucking disgusting to me. Thankfully the site now has a "No longer have your old device option" to de-register from the servoce you never signed up for... on a product you never owned.

    ...end rant, sry
