  • I literally haven’t had a Netflix sub since that year and I sometimes miss the convenience of it even. Haven’t been very frequent on reddit in 2 years. Neither company is going to miss me though.

    Soon it’ll just be piracy and the fediverse for me, and maybe I’ll be able to show my daughter how to download movies and shows, but I’m sure within within her lifetime, piracy will just become so unpopular that all the good sources of content die out. I do hope the fediverse will stay around though. It has a similar problem to piracy: It’s not that it’s hard, it’s more that the people making everything work get tired and it’s hard to convert people.

    Kids probably are there just to extort the baby daddies for money tbh. Child support doesn’t count as income for the parent, at least in my country. You can get child support from multiple men and then continue to receive disability benefits for your migraine, end up with more than minimum wage and all you need to do is find the next guy, because he’ll help raise the kids while you sit around doing nothing, and eventually he’ll have to pay you child support too.

    This type of woman is like 0.1% of the general populace though, maybe less. I was baby daddy #2, but we cooperated to get our kids back from the abuser and now she actually has held a job for a whole 2 and a half weeks, which nobody thought possible.

    When I was still with her, she was burning through 3-4x national median pay per month and we literally didn’t have food money halfway through the month.




  • Diesel doesn’t even burn that well on its own. For it to do anything, you must’ve already had a pretty decent fire going without it.

    I’m nowhere near as knowledgeable as you, but I do have an actual furnace for heating in the winter, so I have some experience. I can also vouch for structural stability being a hindrance: If I build it too well, there are usually logs or bricks that don’t catch fire until a long time later.








  • Yes. They (cellebrite) don’t mention GrapheneOS support very loudly because it’s poor. They can’t decrypt one that’s BFU (Before First Unlock), not even by brute force if it’s a 6 digit passcode apparently. Don’t know if they can get data from an AFU GOS pixel. A year ago when their internal docs leaked, they also had no support for latest iOS at the time, but had brute force support for older versions as long as phone itself wasn’t too new and had AFU access without brute force for even older versions.

    Moral of the story: if there’s a chance police might take your phone to investigate for a crime you hopefully didn’t even commit, shut down your phone completely - the 5x power button trick on iOS disables biometric unlock, but the device itself stays decrypted and thus more vulnerable. Also keep your OS up to date.

    If you’ve got a phone that’s neither iOS nor GrapheneOS, it’s probably pretty much Swiss cheese anyway. IOS isn’t as good as GrapheneOS either, but it offers some protection against Cellebrite if up to date and BFU. But if they keep your phone for long enough (months, years), they’ll get it unlocked because you can’t install updates that would patch any newly discovered vulnerabilities and one day they’ll find a BFU unlock for it, probably.
