I’ve been using Tutanota and Mullvad for like a decade now without any issues.

Tutanota in particular, feels like it’s gotten a lot better in the last year or so. The inbox loads a lot faster and you can show sender info in the notification.

The IMEI number on the phone is essentially locked to the device, swapping sims won’t change it. So a phone activated under your real name on one network could technically get traced back to you even when using a different SIM card.

Also, carrying a phone with both SIMs active is completely unprotected from correlation attacks by anyone with access to the cell tower data. It’d be blatantly obvious that the location of one SIM is the same as the other all the time.

All depends on the threat level you expect, but if you’re worried about a VOIP account being compromised to get your real number, you are talking about pretty sophisticated actors.

Educating yourself on topic is a good idea BEFORE you plan on arguing about it online.

I just had a purple line appear on my pixel 8, google offered me $490 on trade for a 9. The line is intermittent so I just rated my phone as good condition for the trade in. There is an extended warranty on the problem so if they try and give me any shit about it I’ll just reference that. If you do trade it in, make sure to uncheck the box that says you’ll accept less on the trade if they decide the condition isn’t as described. I have no actual evidence, but given my fairly extensive history dealing with googles customer service I think they may try and screw you over on the trade.

There’s probably a microsoft engineer out there somewhere sitting in a cubical who has the solution already written and tested and they just can’t figure out how to send it to their boss. They’ve tried outlook, teams, github, skype, and even one drive but they’re all so broken that it may just be faster to print the code out and mail it.

Your right, no one has any rationality at all which is why we live in a world where so much stuff actually gets done.

Why is someone with deep wisdom and insights such as yourself wasting their time here on lemmy?

I think many racists do in fact say Native Americans are throwing racist tantrums when they work towards gaining even the most basic of human rights.

I mean, that’s like calling a Native American racist for disliking European (white) Americans. Like sure, technically, but aren’t there some underlying issues at play that make the feeling more justified.

Look on the bright side, mother nature is trying to reduce that surplus.

Yeah but who knows what qualifies as an inspection. It might have just been an employee walking the route every morning before letting customers. Checking air quality is probably the most important thing to do frequently.

This is just a rip off of the Parks and Rec episode with the gay penguins.

A bitch in the box is actually just a breaking bad themed jack in the box.

In my experience the only thing that makes a material professional grade is a paper trail. If something goes wrong and you get sued you want to be able to absolutely prove you didn’t cheap out on any of the materials. It adds a lot of cost to keep batches separate and making sure none of the paperwork gets mixed up. Especially if multiple companies are involved in creating and distributing the material. I work in an ISO compliant shop and we have a lot of folders moving around with different orders, it can be a nightmare keeping everything straight when things are busy.

I agree that logically there are higher priorities, a child’s development isn’t completely logical. I think allowing them to participate in the same activities as their peers is important. Stuff we might think is dumb as adults can have a big impact on kids, and homeless kids are already at a disadvantage as far as fitting in.

Has any more evidence ever been produced to show Tuta is a honeypot? The guy who made the original claim is in jail for 14 years for passing on secrets while he was director of RCMP intelligence.

I have emissions like a horse but only because I eat an equivalent amount of fiber.

I think it’d be more for obfuscation than completely hiding it. As long as there are other hidden networks on the ship you just name it something generic that blends in. I mean this whole thing is a really stupid idea, but naming it something like “COM.NAB_ISO:4133” would draw less attention.

Who knows how apple decides to do anything? There may be some really stupid arbitrary reason apple modifies signal but not telegram just because apple insists on being difficult. If you don’t trust apple don’t use an iPhone and just download it on android.

This is a terrible attitude to have, not necessarily the anti corporate stuff, but we absolutely shouldn’t be associating the queer community with random violence. Self and community defense are there own issues as there is a higher rate of violence against LGB and especially T people. Anything you can do to help a trans person leave the state of Florida would be infinitely more useful than throwing a brick at a cop. Anything like that will just be used as ammunition by the people trying to say that trans people, drag queens, etc are somehow dangerous to society. It doesn’t matter to most people in Florida that fascists are orders of magnitude more violent, anything done by a trans person will be amplified to an extreme by right wing media.
