The entire web is built on standardized e2e encryption schemes fought for by techie nerds so that we don't have these problems there.

This version naming is hrllaripusly awful. "It works on rotund tundra, but not alpine fresh. Hope that helps!"

Windows tends to work with ever you throw at it though. Plug it in and somehow it will find a way to work.

Definitely no shady VPNs run by white westerners though. Theyve all got impeccable morals through ans through. Glad you cleared that up.

Firefox shipped sandboxing on Android years ago (before chrome) and then removed it. I'm not sure you gain much from it on Android. It eats up ram making performance crap on cheap phones and apps already run in their own app user context to isolate what they can access.

I will never understand how people expect software to gather no telemetry or metrics whatsoever.

I'm in Thailand and knockoff Disney stuff (and Legos) are pretty normal. And it's nice. The kids buying them have to deal with seeing their ads plastered all over town, so it's nice there are versions they can buy. I just wish they were so shitty quality and the big companies markup wasn't so fucking insane. Lego sets pretty regularly hit $200-$300 here. There literally is no Nintendo Thailand, so game prices are pretty random based on import fees that retailers can negotiate (or sneak through).

The nice thing is no one gives a shit about piracy. No risks really.

That's literally the same thing the us government is doing here....

There's no technical reason you can't delete an image that's been replicated. There's an API to replicate the data, there can also be apis to delete the replicas (and apparently there are?)

Isn't this in violation of the gdpr?

I am too. Is the agreement to charge per mb downloaded? Do they not have some sort of "turn it off if I hit this max?* feature?

I usually avoid hosting solutions like this just because of this shit. I wanna know how much I'll owe before the month starts even. Anything else feels like gambling.

I find it hard to believe cities are too small for public transit and too big to walk at the same time. I find it easier to believe people are just too lazy for a 30 min walk.
