I want to be able to label chats. I don’t know who Sammy Gupta is, I know we must have spoken to them at some point but it was 2 years ago and I don’t remember who they are, what their role or responsibility is, or anything about them.

I’m pretty sure the EU banned them on the basis that they are death traps for their drivers, other road uses, and pedestrians alike.

Why don’t they just fix it and then release it rather than releasing it for 15 minutes and then recalling it again?

It’s missing basic features. The stuff that any normal human would assume it can do it just can’t do. It’s absolutely terrible if you use it in a large organization where you have to speak to multiple different people.

For one-on-one conversations I guess it’s okay but the moment you try and get anything more complicated than that going on it becomes a nightmare.

VS Code. That’s it though.

Slack

I do not believe anyone at Microsoft actually uses it because if they did there’s no way in hell that they would have let it be that bad.

It literally keeps every single conversation you’ve ever had in a big long list on the left, with absolutely no way to organize it, categorize it, order it, or in any way manage it other than deleting history, that’s it you can delete history.

It literally doesn’t even function half the time.

There is absolutely no way in hell that the components inside a router can possibly add up to $500. Beyond a certain point things that are more expensive are just more expensive because they are, not because they represent better quality.

Routers are commodity items, there is absolutely no way that a router costing $500 is demonstrably better than a router costing $100

There’s no way that’s going to cost less than $500. With a mount that costs $300

I’m not convinced anyone actually likes vim. They are just use it to be edgy.

Nobody uses notepad the way Microsoft thinks people use notepad.

Somebody already did that but it wasn’t with chat GPT and honestly the docs were fine.

It didn’t do that thing that a lot of humans do when writing documentation which is just declare that something is true without explaining why it is true. So you end up in random PHP like land, when things just work like that okay.

This question was already answered 10 years ago in a completely different version of the programming language to the one you’re using, and we know it doesn’t work anymore, in fact hasn’t for 8 years, but we’re going to close it anyway because screw you.

Also you should be doing it in Rust anyway

I assume being blown up by a terrorist is not everyone’s idea of a good time. Oh indeed anyones.

In what way am I wrong then?

There are attacks where rather than trying to crank the password you just capture the hash which is stored in memory somewhere and then using a tool that lets you bypass the standard login inject that hash into the app, totally bypassing the UI interface and the password hashing algorithm.

The app sees the hash is correct and isn’t aware that the information has been input via nonstandard methods, and so allows access.

The attacker still doesn’t have a clue what your password was, but they don’t need to. Interestingly enough this means that every time they want access to your data they have to do this because they don’t have a way of actually changing the password or finding out what it was.

It’s not destruction of evidence though because without a warrant the information on the phone isn’t evidence, it’s just stuff on a phone. Stuff which is your stuff and you have every right to delete it whenever you want.

They would actually have to arrest you and acquire a warrant, try it to getting you to unlock the phone for it to be “evidence”.

The police would have a very hard time in court saying that there was evidence on the phone when they can’t produce any documentation to indicate they had any reason to believe this to be the case. Think about the exchange with the judge.

“Your honor this individual wiped their phone, thus destroying evidence”

“Very well, may I see the warrant?”

“Yeah… Er… Well about that…”

It doesn’t matter what the police may think you have done, if they don’t go via the process the case will be dismissed on a technicality. They hate doing that but they don’t really have a choice.

Inactivity reboot.

The phrase “as a member of the intelligence community” is not the same “as as a mother”.

Assuming it is true, always a caveat on the internet, It would actually give them a unique perspective into the situation rather than just using it as a catch-all excuse for Karen’s to be an uninformed twit.
