My “important” emails work on a white list basis. So every sender not approved by me goes to spam. When I’m waiting for an email I’ll check the spam folder for it and white list the sender.

I guess that they want to be indexed by google for the full content but not to be seen by you.

Scary indeed.

Phone carriers are to blame. Unlimited SMS plans weren’t common when whatsapp took hold of our communications.

It’s the de facto communication medium in Europe. It’s not much of a choice. Even work related groups are usually over WhatsApp.

I contacted my representatives in Spain and they gave two fucks about it, they still positioned as “in favour”.

Why would a OS need an online account?

We truly live in the stupidest timeline.

They are closing the whole project.

Specifically they say that they are tired of pushing fixes and that they don’t find excitement in maintaining the project. With zero mentions at all to being scrapped or having any kind of AI related issue.

I don’t know if you knew the project before seeing this post. I did, I was considering between this and freshrss and chose freshrss specifically because I knew that the end of ttrss was close (this was like 2 years ago). There were a lot of signs that the development was ending and the project was on route to be abandoned.

First, source code is on github.

Second, RSS aggregators are self hostable, not a service provided by the dev. The dev would have not issues of a public instance of ttrss hosted by someone gets scrapped.

Third, RSS aggregators doesn’t really tend to be public facing. Due to their personal nature they don’t tend to be open. They are more account based.

Sorry, I really don’t see the case here.

It really doesn’t seem like that’s the case. It doesn’t even makes much sense. What do tou think was being AI scrapped? The source code?

You could want to have multiple clients in sync.

Also a web service could be fetching 24/7 and perform classification algorithms before serving to the client that will only connect a few times a day.

Newpipe, now signed by Norman Reedus, verification picture and everything!

I will push with my current phone, for a few years. Luckily abd installs could do the trick for a while.

For when this phone is failing I hope the new partnership between GrapheneOS and a phone manufacturer that’s not google is already working and producing a phone I could buy.

My despise to ads is so big that if someday ads are completely unavoidable I’ll settle for a system that just blackens the screen and mute the volume for the duration of the ads. It will still be worth it.

It’s true. Having to constantly update some adblockers and ways to evade ads in youtube made me realize shitty youtube videos are not worth the effort and I barely use it nowadays.

Headline is not true.

A police spokesperson from one Spanish region told that they suspect of people carrying google pixel phones because they are commonly used by drug dealers with GOS installed. It was made more as a comment than as a serious threat.

I have heard nothing about any actual confiscation based on phone OS being made.

I’m closer to carrying around a cyberdeck than a dumbphone.

I don’t like either sms or phonecalls.

I have just set up a normal computer with the specs I wanted, installed debian and docker/podman and I’m golden.

I can’t wait for what comes first. The claudication and predictable extended support or the wave of malware paralyzing half the world over unsecured devices.

I had a friend that was 100% convinced that we have already found extraterrestrial life, and that it was already normalized. She was actually surprised when I have to explain that we haven’t found any evidence whatsoever of any living organism that had not originated on earth. She didn’t even believed me at first, she just thought I was misinformed.

I blame headlines like this.

I also have a WD black 2TB that must be near a decade now and it’s still going with zero issues. There were definitely doing something good.

Though truth be told, it’s a data drive, not the OS drive. So there’s less r/w going on.
