“if” gcc had a Ken Thompson hack how do you secure checks notes anything

Threads exists for the sole purpose of capturing some of the people showing interest in the fediverse as twitter dies and keeping them in the facebook ecosystem. Once it believes it has exhausted this window of opportunity it will defederate just as it de-federated it’s xmmp based messenger service once it thought it had the upperhand.

Every server that defederates from meta preemptively is working to build a resilient community that will survive this inevitable scenario. Every server that federates with meta will become dependent on it then collapse as their users leave to join threads once that becomes their only option to continue interacting with the threads users that their social experience was built on.

Your post only concerns threats to an individual user re scraping or malicious interactions. The threat meta poses to the fediverse is systemic. In the long run the meta-blocking servers are the fediverse. The meta-federating servers might see some short term attention but in the long run will have the same fate as those that hitched their wagons to the metaverse.

They don’t want pirates removing the slot machine monetization from their game for children.

Android is built on linux yet it is increasingly locked down and many phones are extremely difficult to get root access on.

So Valve could have followed the phone ecosystem path and pushed as much of the feature set as proprietary code as possible (binary blob drivers, proton proprietary instead of bsd), replaced pacman with a valve controlled package manager & repos, setup selinux to give users no power to do anything and made the deck only able to secure boot steamOS signed by Valve. Technical users may be able to jail break such a device but the majority would not be inclined to.

Valve’s wisdom here is in realizing that the majority are going to buy their games anyway but if you don’t lock the device down then most of the technical users will also buy most of their games whereas if you have to go out of your way to jail break a device to install something fun then that device basically becomes a piracy only device from that point on.

I mean you could look at the architecture but all you really needed is a level

I think the idealization of this kind of spartan living space is basically the same as the cryptobro idealization of unregulated currency.

Over time exposure to reality will result in making compromise after compromise to solve each problem that arises until you have reinvented from first principles the very same standards that everyone else in society already arrived at.

I just tossed a coin out the window at the nearest child and told them to fetch me the plumpest turkey in the butcher’s window.

You could use Insular to quarantine your untrusted apps into their own profile (different permissions, file directory etc) and then transfer the individual photos to the “work” profile to access them with whatsapp.

Not all unencrypted apps are equivalent. Not wanting to use something owned by meta under any circumstances is completely reasonable.

From there, rice, in the 90s-00s, referred to the Race Inspired Cosmetic Enhancement: typically bolted onto Honda and Toyota, it moved from that to any cosmetic car customization 10s.

I did the same thing starting probably around the same time as you except that did it start working for me 5 years ago and I haven’t gone back to windows.

It’s just what cars look like when they are designed for functionality rather than as a statement about the owner’s masculinity.

This is true and people should always be mindful of this. Additionally you should consider not just the ownership of the companies but also the infrastructure they rely on such as their rented servers, payment processors, on-site staff etc. However commercial VPNs remain a convenient compromise for many use cases. These services are probably fine for your shitposing needs but should not be relied upon for activism for instance.

Notice that despite the presence of many people who grew up with and use the metric system none are complaining about how hard it was to intuit metric units?

If you stop telling people what they should find intuitive for a moment and actually listen to people telling you about their experiences then you might find that this is not an issue.

It’s on there but mislabeled as one of the others.
