I used it once to charge my Pixel Buds and went “huh, that was neat, but inconvenient because now I have to keep my phone in one spot, can’t use it, and probably could just plug the buds into something nearby” then never used it again.

In transit, it’s impossible to get them all, though it should support PGP to anyone else that has it.

At rest, it should all be locked down so only I can access, they may have to store some messages temporarily until I connect to provide the encryption, but everything else better be completely inaccessible.

You can edit titles on Lemmy :)

Who would be able to access my emails at rest?

If the answer isn’t abso-fucking-lutely no one, I’m not interested.

What I’m shocked about is there’s a $14M black market for rhino horns and they’re principled enough to not just sell dried glue shavings and call it rhino horn.

The news is he was responding to a question about his favorite flavor of ice cream.

How does adopting more progressive candidates in California solve gerrymandering in Texas?

Nothing like the slop of a rain drenched tennis ball on pavement

What’s the alternative, let the red states gerrymander and then just hope and pray that our new Republican-run house does the right thing and outlaws their one advantage in governing?

Newsom isn’t doing this in a vacuum, California has had a really well liked nonpartisan districting committee. Texas and other red States have gone with the nuclear option and CA is responding in kind - even more importantly, this is something that has to be voted on by the residents of CA in a special election, rather than by a set of politicians already benefitting from gerrymandering.

I absolutely hate that it has to be done, but as a CA resident I will be voting for it, and I will be pressuring my elected representatives to work towards passing federal legislation outlawing the practice and bringing things to a more even playing field.

The do-nothing alternative is not an option.

And hence, range anxiety is overblown.

Beginner question here - does HA even take sub-second polling?

This is the Spotify/Apple Music/etc model and the reason why music piracy is practically dead (yes, I know there are a few sites still going).

These services are doing their best to find ways to push people back to piracy but for now they keep it at bay through competition to provide better service.

If there was a catchall video streaming service where all publishers released and got a cut of their plays it would be game over for piracy. Fortunately that’ll never happen.

“We could have had the next Game of Thrones doing 200 episodes a year at 11:30pm every weeknight and made approximately a million billion gajillion dollars - anything less is a loss.”

CBS’s tax accounting team, probably.

And some fava beans.

Donald Trump raped kids with his pal Jeffrey Epstein.

They release the Epstein Files yet?

I don’t hate it, but I would REALLY like to be able to move those buttons around. Refresh, share, and forward are hands-down my most used buttons. Having to chase them up feels tedious.

Similarly sign in (or, I’m guessing account once you do sign in) does not need that much real estate.

Finally I’d love to swap Passwords with a shortcut to my password manager of choice (in my case, Bitwarden)

I appreciate the more modern take, but I think it could use some refinement or customization options, similar to dragging things around your toolbar in FF desktop.

In defense of Mozilla on this one, the new tab button has been in tabs for years now, and it kinda makes sense to be there.

If they’re trying to streamline menus, getting rid of a redundant button is a good start.

This is not at all surprising, and anyone with half a brain cell would know not to trust these reports but I appreciate these reporters for taking the time to document this for the record.

It will not change the administration’s actions, but it provides a consistent and reputable source of debunking when that one uncle starts spewing horse shit on Facebook.

Hot take - everyone is hitting on nostalgia, but personally I think there’s more to it than just that.

Low-res games invite the player to use their imagination, something that gets lost in the pursuit of hyper-realism.

Unlike most modern AAA games, games like Stardew Valley, Minecraft, or BOTW/TOTK invite the player to use their creativity - not just in problem solving, but also in how they view the world.

This was just an inherent feature of older games, due to the limitations of technology, but now it’s a luxury in a world that’s increasingly trying to script or control how you think and interact at every turn.
