I get it when I long press -

Em dash is — I believe — the correct one for interjections / parentheses replacement. On mobile it’s easily accessible, on my desktop I get it with Alt + - but I had to set it up myself.

You can use em dashes instead, but then you risk being accused being an LLM.

How is Earth not a discovered planet? Discovering it was one of the first things I did after being born.

Yes, but it doesn’t solve the problem. Even when a website does that, they might still have a switcher to let you override.

“AI will solve it” Oh absolutely, even dumb LLMs today can solve it, just ask ChatGPT how to solve climate change and it will tell you a reasonable plan right now.

The problem is that people in power have no intentions to implement any of that.

Not any more dangerous than installing a random exe. And a GUI that opens when you click one could explain that danger much better than what currently happens: people blindly use sudo dpkg and that’s it.

Most end-user software is not in Debian/Ubuntu repos. Sublime Text, Discord, Anydesk, Google Earth, Ente Photos, Synergy, Steam, NordVPN… The list goes on. You download a Deb from their website.

Lots of game still have that, Satisfactory, Minecraft, Valheim

I never go to Reddit anymore after moving to Lemmy, but I do sometimes end up on a Reddit post it’s a relevant search result.

It’s called “Regis Missile Launcher” and is in the last tier.

There are lasguns, and the same missile launcher the NPC has is also craftable.

You can craft that same missile launcher, it’s not even a unique weapon, but a normal tech tree unlock. You can also use a lasgun against vehicles (which you need to find a schematic for or gain from a mission).

It’s supposed to be outside the scale, like a fuel gauge before you start the car. Which I agree is not great, but I can see what they were going for.

Yes, I assume so.

Yes it’s called metadata. I don’t know why they want it.

I don’t know, are they? As far as we know they could only get unsent notifications, which are obviously still with Apple/Google because the target phone is offline and so they couldn’t be delivered yet. Which would explain why they only got thousands of them, not billions.

Eh, depending how old you are. I can believe somebody is going to Mars in ~50 years.

You are trying to read what isn’t there. Push notifications just don’t contain any messages, at all, in any form, whether you want to call it data or metadata. They are just telling the Signal app to wake up, and then it securely checks with the server what’s up.

The only think authorities are getting then, is the fact your Signal app was told to wake up at time X. Not whether you actually received a message, let alone any information about any messages.

It is confusing the system is called “push notifications”, because it has nothing to do with the actual notifications you are seeing on your phone. It’s just a mechanism to wake up sleeping apps so that they can check up with their server.
