The real difference that no one is touching on is that the US funds one of these genocides. That’s what the protests are about.

MASS?

If a law were passed, infrastructure would materialize. Our freedoms cannot depend on the idea no one will step up to make money solving these “problems.”

I got a new phone; first one I didn’t root, but god do I miss AdAway…

Yeah but… a block list is just another blocker. The real question is how you’re implementing it?

Android’s host file protection makes it impossible to modify without root.

This comment betrays historical ignorance.

Basically everything is more secure than SMS though. Security is a gradient, and never absolutel.

And pirates are using hardware to commit their dirty deeds!

Maybe this is how technological society crumbles, one lawsuit at a time.

Demand 3 or we’ll get 6.

You started off with reasonable complaints and ended with spouting off misogynistic bullshit.

Why do I need to install this? Why can’t I just search online somewhere?

It took a wrong turn in the 90s. There’s been no real feasible way to fix it without breaking the web for many decades now. Some things are just forever despite their problems, like QWERTY.

This meme is really only true for things like Slack where the app is just the webpage in an app, and even then it’s not quite true because Electron is a lot heavier than a webpage because it has to now run the webpage and the app - which I think is terrible.

But then also, Electron enables actual apps to be developed using web standards - which I think is great.

TLDR: Use Electron to make apps, not glorified webpages.

I’m all for market-based solutions when they’re not obviously fucking people and endangering their lives.

Before I do anything “risky” with forms I copy the text AND paste it somewhere else to confirm I really copied it. Only then do I take the next action, and still I get burned all the time by crap like this one way or another.

Not very programmer humor, but horrifyingly accurate.

This is probably it. iPhones all meet Apples standards but low end Android devices can be true garbage.

It’s like having a shitty netbook and swearing off Windows as a result.

And absolute fools.

Truth isn’t truth.

It’s their foundational belief.

oh fuck
