You should look up where the word robot came from originally.

So long as there are humans who value power and control and can propagandize the populace to support them, a world where all people can live comfortably and happily as equals will never exist.

That’s not how encryption works. But you’re not wrong about it being owned by meta being a problem. There’s more info in a message than just the contents.

Both are quite secure but neither of them stop an idiot on one end or the other from sharing the contents with the public.

“what about repeat violent offenders.”

This is conservative paranoia propaganda at work. People who are violent offenders become repeat violent offenders because of the system that we have in place not in spite of it. And the percentage of violent offenders in our prison system is severely out of proportion to those of the nonviolent variety who make up the bulk of our inmate population.

Yeah, that’s something that absolutely has to change. I don’t care if “career criminals get out of charges all the time”. A false charge should not follow you for the rest of your life.

Then again, I also believe that if you serve your time in prison and are released, you should not have a publicly searchable record that can be used to deny you opportunities. So take my opinion as you will

It does quite alright in python

That’s cause python is the most forgiving language you could write in. You could drop entire pages of garbage into a script and it would figure out a way to run properly.

What Amazon eliminated was your ability to download your books and then load them to your Kindle from your computer instead of using their whisper net.

Is it possible to import Kindle books to this device?

I ask because my Kindle library is fairly extensive and giving it up would be uncomfortable to say the least.

So, how long do you think 'til the GOP Congress enacts a law blocking said technology and company in order to protect Tesla and oil interests of the United States fascist oligarchy?

POV: Not all moms are accepting of their daughters being into girls.

Tell that to the people who lose an hours’ worth of pay every year to the companies that happily adjust their timecards in the fall and then all too conveniently forget to fix them in the spring.

LoL, same. I didn’t even know a problem existed til I opened up Lemmy this morning. 😂

Conservative media outlet spins for Trump. I’m absolutely shocked and amazed. 😒

Seriously, why the hell did I have to open this godawful site to read this when OP said he was going to post the text in comments?

Exactly, not clownish at all.

Shouldn’t the images be in reverse order?

What “trusted” platform? Google play store? Their rules are lax as all fuck. And if you download an app from a reputable company and it has malware in it you have the Better Business Bureau to turn to. Otherwise buyer beware, scammers exist.

The difference isn’t actually in the operating system. iOS is just as vulnerable to such things. The difference is in how the app store is run. Apple locks down there app store so that it’s much more difficult to get malicious apps added. Google is extremely less thorough. Which is one of the reason many of us choose Android. When you choose more freedom the price is more vigilance is necessary to secure yourself and your phone.

Yes that’s why you verify the safety and security of the apps you’re installing on your phone and don’t just go, “ooo, this looks cool, let’s download it and try it out”. This is especially true if you are installing FOSS apps.

This worked 100%

Now I just need to find a way to build in an audio delay for the bluetooth device. 😅

So, I’m finally able to tackle this. Do i need pavucontrol? I’m trying to avoid installing any pulseaudio components.
