they didn’t say otherwise

preferring Rust over Rust? what do you mean? do you think loosely typed python is easy to read and maintain?

an llm slopbot generates messages that are leagues more coherent and easier to understand

not much better than eye scanning. also does not solve the gifting problem, because normally you don't know the ID of your friends

wait, I think maybe there is a misunderstanding in what happened in other apps. you are referring to the signal notifications thing, right?

oh, I thought OP's point is Voyager does not even want you to bother with notifications that could make you more addicted edit: someone else has taken it that way too: https://europe.pub/comment/7070900

do you remember what were they saying? they deleted everything

does not by default. you still have to disable showing notification details, if you don’t want to turn off history

I understood it as they need a database to hold the notifications you should be shown that part can just happen un volatile memory

I don’t know about others, but Mattermost sends everything by default. first to mattermost’s server, then from there to firebase/apple. there’s a setting to not send message body, but it’s not set by default

websocket based push notifications is still called push notifications in signal. this is the first time I hear the term “pull notifications”, I don’t think it’s widely used.

this is not about push notifications. signal is smart enough to ot send your texts to firebase but wait a minute! I just remembered something. isnt it that they couldn’t even send you the plain text message itself through push, because only your device can decrypt it?

good question, and I was wrong. as of this latest commit, push notifications are represented by PushNotification types. the notification message is the 4th parameter in the constructor. this kind of object is created in PushNotificationManager and PushNotificationScheduler. out of 6 functions that send a notification, 1 actually sends notifications of messages, and it omits putting in the message part: github.com/…/PushNotificationManager.java#L49 so the signal server does not send {“urgent”: true} to firebase, it sends no message, just kind of a ping in my understanding.

I just want a browser, no crypto wallets, no ai assistants, no built-in mail client, no biometric scanning.

3 out of those 4 are not even a thing in firefox

This mismanagement, among other issues, potentially cost Microsoft a trillion dollars in market capitalization

so far

no idea how are they getting out of this trouble

I don't know if they actually started injecting it into the video, but even before they did that, they were serving the ads from the same domain.

that is the documentation of firebase, not signal. firebase just shows a common example there that is easy to implement for beginners and lazy devs. but developers can send whatever they want through firebase. I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s what facebook messenger is doing, but if a developer cares about their users privacy, they can just send a simple message through firebase, and make the app so that when receiving that, it checks for new messages by itself. this is what the molly fork does with unifiedpush. the UP server, commonly ntfy.sh, only sees that the mollysocket server sent this to your molly client: {"urgent": true} Notification history is purely local to the device. It is not sent to any servers. I did not claim so. but when your phone is confiscated, it’s possible to read that out

It’s not because of push notifications. the message is not sent to firebase, just a signal that the app should do a refresh. It’s because the system saves the notifications apps posted to the notification menu.

same as webm, yes

of course, but no root permission is needed for that. flatpak packages can be installed on the user level, but even if you somehow disable that, they could still just download firefox (or anything else) as a tarball, unpack it and run it traditionally

mkv for the win

why do you think that? then all piefed users would be commenting with thorns

lol, what a bunch of liars. Americans don’t have any privacy protections

grapheneos devs are making that choice instead of others, by having much stricter hardware requirements than necessary for being able to take advantage of other unique privacy features.

In this mode, the agent performs “memory consolidation” while the user is idle. The autoDream logic merges disparate observations, removes logical contradictions, and converts vague insights into absolute facts. this blog post reads like a marketing piece

A privacy focused individual should also be concerned about security to some degree, making the hardware root of trust a high priority.

to some degree, which does not warrant mandating the highest known level of hardware security.

as I remember their strongest reason is google's own hardware security module, because there is no comparable thing in other phones. but it's silly because graphene has lots of unique privacy features that don't depend on special hardware

this is just limiting what apps can be opened, and it only works for flatpak apps. how will you disable all the other apps that are installed? how do you disable the shell which could be used to download a non-flatpak browser? and as you said it does not even try to limit which websites are allowed to be visited, or for how much time can the computer be used. a pihole can be circumvented with DoH, for which there is an easy toggle in firefox, probably chrome too

There is actually a technical reason for this. Pixel phones are the only ones to support custom AvB keys.

that’s not true. Fairphones and certain Motorolas have supported that for years. check the calyxos device support page. all of them supports it.

when I was looking I have found exactly zero parental controls for linux. which ones do you know?

What problem does this even solve? On Linux, what app would even be asking how old you are? Web browsers for sure, and maybe electron apps like Discord? But what else is there? I’m on Bazzite (based on Fedora). I’m comfy well, the app catalog, steam, certain games, … tbh parental controls would be useful to have. you can’t be watching every minute if they are doing something inappropriate. usage time limits are also useful. why are people so much against tools? we are so afraid of the slippery slope that we don’t even consider to accept legitimately useful optional tools can we acknowledge that what happens on the internet today is harmful to children? now, you either properly set up limits for them, or cut their access, if you want any good.

except that they don’t even know about the existence of the open tech, and that they are too coplicaaaateeeed

don't let them know your lemmy account if you do it

would they notice if you would give false reviews? if its text form maybe you could generate lengthy reviews so that it eats more money, and makes it less likely someone throughly checks your work

that’s fine, if you only use it on private roads. but if not, you are recording plenty of people (even not counting drivers) who did not consent to being recorded. then who knows what happens with the recordings. and that’s the actual problem. too bad its not enforced.

in a few decades? on day one! data is the new oil

but this is an app store, and their own policy, not a bank or other financial institution

even in the EU? that's a bit hard to believe

In the least, fight it more in court. Isn’t that the entire point of the thing, to keep things looping around via lawyers? that can be done in questionable cases, but not all is like that. often the law is very clear about what do they need to comply with, isn’t it? Maybe notify the user beforehand, as well. I am not a lawyer but I doubt they are allowed to do that No need to keep subscription data if you implement one-time lifetime plans, for example. as I said in my previous comment, they accept payments in crypto. but I think they also accept payments in cash over mail

why, what should have they done? close shop and go to jail for not complying? you have unrealistic expectations. if you are high risk, you should only access their services over their onion site and only pay in crypto or gift cards. they give all the tools one needs to stay truly anonymous.

but politicians would have always been exempted from chat control

you should have edited the title. but yours is a new account, maybe you don’t yet know lemmy lets you do that

I think you should send it in for warranty, if you still have it.

how do you verify that it works the way they say it works Open source -> you look at the code a source code repository on github does not have any guarantees that they are distributing the software built from exactly that source code. but even worse, almost all such apps are closed source. and you have no chance to verify what runs on the server in either case. how do you make yourself heard when it doesn’t In proper domcratic counties that is what law is for. is this “law” thing you mentioned able to make your thoughts appear telepathically in the minds of millions of others, without a channel like the internet? are you going to post to facebook with your discovery and hope millions will see it and agree with you? or are you going to grab a big board and a megaphone and go to the town square about the problem? this is probably the more effective way, but you’ll be called obnoxious, especially by those who have no idea about the tech they use

Ohhh, you can see that ? Which clients implement that feature ? You learn something new about lemmy everyday xD It’s Voyager, but these are not public tags, I just tagged you earlier :) Isn’t correct either well it depends. the code in OP was mimicking python, where you begin functions with the shorthand for “definition”, not “function” LLM translations aren’t very good when it comes to languages spoken by such a few people x) bojler eladó! de ha nem kell, most megfizetsz megszentségteleníthetetlenségeskedéseidért!

of course it doesn’t! if my user tags are not lying, you are probably using a hungarian operating system, so you should be using this: megh fó(n): visszatér n+1 megh vendéglő(n): visszatér n-1

A bit cringe on the “we’re white collar thugs and we will bully you until you do as we say”, but isn’t it 100% true?

agree Also dont be pedantic you fuck, a date field is just a fuckton of checkboxes that is easier to use. where did I say a date field is hard to use? or how is this relevant?

how long did it take to write this all down?

if all goes to plan this would provide them more access to patches and other info
