The article could have easily been just as absurd if it was about how people didn’t get the alert because the alerts were moved to a mastodon instance and people are upset because they don’t want to have to go through the trouble of picking a server. heh.
You can view mastodon posts without being forced to make an account. This use to be the case with Twitter before it was turned into X.
they should at the very least be as accessible as possible for people who help.
They've been doing this for as long as I can remember, the link in the amber alert led to a Twitter post that anyone could view. It wasn't until musk recently making it so you have to make an account in order to see posts which makes me surprised this hasn't been brought up sooner
Still had cool experiences. I think now a days you can use apps to turn your phone into a makeshift oculus quest and stream to your PC using Steam VR, so somewhat useful I think
Edit: it was a headset where you put your phone inside
Aw man those things were so cool! My dad actually got one of those for me as a gift when I was way younger, I forget for which occasion. Didn't use it much tho cause later my grandma found out about it and stole it, throwing it away in the garbage. She doesn't hate me or anything, she was just scared I'd get brain cancer and since nobody in the family ever believes her because of that crap she reads on facebook, that was her way of protecting me. Oh well.
As a Linux user for a few years now I have to disagree. My friends who still rely on Windows only software for either school or their jobs use Revision OS and installs it with a tool called playbooks which takes only a few minutes and automatically disables feature updates; only allowing security updates to go through. This makes it so all "system updates" are through the playbook app which is pretty cool, it pretty much makes it a Windows fork and won't revert or break anything when updating
I literally only started hearing people say its a honeypot after that one cat pfp youtuber was reviewing its onion services when proton released it, which used https for the onion domain, which he said "is the same thing honeypots do" or whatever
