@beeng@discuss.tchncs.de I wonder what proportion of the original code is still there. Not much I shouldn’t think. The original app didn’t ask for android permissions the way the modern one does, if only coz Android changed the way permissions work since then.

Using this account more for forum-interaction, if I say anything I think is interesting here I’ll likely boost it there.

Whatssapp is designed as a surveillance app, it’s primary purpose is to collect data from your phone for Facebook to analyze, so they make it basically impossible to use unless it’s installed on your phone.

Technology@beehaw.org•Google will no longer back up the Internet: Cached webpages are dead
1·2 years agoSeems unlikely they’ll deleted it. If they’re started deleting data that’s quite a change. They might save from bandwidth costs of delivering it to people I suppose.
Maybe something to do with users filling the AIs from the google cache? Google wanting to ensure only they can train from the google-cache.

Technology@beehaw.org•Clicks is a BlackBerry-style iPhone keyboard case designed for creators
4·2 years ago@Norgur@kbin.social hehe.
A stylus holder too, an extra battery of course, too to handle the extra load.
No phone has been better than the n900. But a case that had the keys and extra power and maybe a secondary status screen on the back, and didn’t look like a bananna themed children’s toy. Could be nice.

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•If all adblocks get deleted, would you still pirate?
3·2 years ago@XeryBlox The first thing I would pirate would be a hacked version of Firefox that had ad-blockers in it.
If I can’t get that then I’d think about abandoning the web for Gemini.

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•[Rant] The people - or rather the attitude - of r/piracy
2·2 years agoProbably the “company” that they thought you were shilling for is Kbin or Lemmy? Which aren’t companies of course, but an understandable mistake.
Presumably the people on Reddit will become more and more in favour of the admins, as everyone who isn’t leaves.
Soon all that is left will be the Spez Fan Club.

Bush, Trump, Clinton and Biden all got more innocent people killed than Julian. Their crimes all dwarf anything he is accused of let alone is guilty of. If you are not a literal bot, you have allowed yourself to be programmed by intelligence agencies into hating the man who exposed the crimes over the men who committed them.
