I wonder if Amazon is pushing these “protests” to drown out the real ones.

I’ve never heard this and wouldn’t have believed it even if I did.

Most likely it will work with a VPN, yes. But having lived in America for so long, I never thought I would expect to have to use a VPN to access a website with content censored by our government.

I thought it looked like CloudFlare. Does that mean the US government is leveraging Cloudflare in order to block whatever they choose, assuming it has that as its underlying architecture?

For some reason I can’t edit my post, however I wanted to add that I attempted to post this to reddit under the /r/Android and /r/google subreddits, but Android is only mod approved posts, and the Google subreddit just straight up removed my post without even informing me.

Isn’t it possible to just move the site under a different domain name, or have mirrored secondary servers in an entirely different location in case the primary one gets taken down?

Looks like everything is essentially in the same spot UI wise, but with a native application that hopefully gets moving a lot faster.
I’ve noticed that currently on Bitwarden, for auto fill it takes 6-7 seconds just to get authenticated with fingerprint and fill in the username and password field. That should hopefully be down to like 2 or 3 seconds.

Does anyone know yet if long COVID is an auto-immune disease? I only assume it is but otherwise don’t know.

That’s what the ‘Lockdown’ feature on Pixel phones does.

Impossible to force a fingerprint or face scan because it asks the phone to only accept passcodes.

I travelled recently, and was filled with disgust when I was told to scan my boarding pass and look into the camera to get in line. I would have asked to go through an alternative line but didn’t want to miss my flight.
What the fuck is wrong with people

It was a good one! It literally flipped 2 ways.

It’s possible competition will just recognize their advantage and pay workers more to get that step ahead.

I read somewhere that they will still be green. It’s confirmed by Apple as well.
- hackitfast@lemmy.worldtoTechnology@lemmy.world•Nothing Phone builds a blue bubble iMessage bridge while Google and Apple fight over RCSEnglish21·2 years ago
The reason they’re moving forward with this is because if Apple tries to sue, it could make a case for Google that Apple is trying to take control of messaging in the United States. If they don’t sue, should Google come after them down the line Apple can say “we’re aware of 3rd party iMessage and decided to not take action to increase interoperability” yadda yadda.
That’s my guess anyway.

You’re not wrong. And unless the controllers have some sort of TPM module in them then yeah they’ll be easily bypassed.

Given that Xbox is a closed console, couldn’t they just have rootkit anticheat by default?
Maybe I’m stuck in the past but it still seems as if consoles still don’t employ anticheats.

Not to mention that the 5 seconds countdown timer is bullshit. In actuality, the timer appears after about a second of playing through the ad, then locks at 5 seconds for about a second and a half, then slowly counts down to 1 where it locks for a second and a half again, and finally gives you the option to skip the ad. I’d wager it’s closer to 7 or 8 seconds per “5 second” ad.

Easy: you don’t.
Nobody has the balls to chase these ghouls down for illegally accessing information, most especially because our government is the ones enabling them to do this.
