You sure that’s been ruled on? Not arguing, only feel like I’ve seen a lot more instances of police violating that than hearing they couldn’t do it.

Edit: my apologies, you’re right. I was able to check into it and see recent rulings. Warrant levels may vary, but they need a warrant.

If i recall correctly, law enforcement can use biometric information to unlock phones without your consent or a warrant.

PIN codes still by consent or warrant only.

“Why not both.”

Free VPN == you are the product.

You learned from those same things and make a profit.

To me it’s essentially the same as someone reading a book or watching a movie when the AI learns from those examples.

I think comments are messed up, so if someone answered (or if someone gave this answer and it was wrong…) apologies!

Isn’t it “breaking the fourth wall”?

You beat me to it by a minute or two!

Don’t forget office chairs if you have a desk job!

Dude, it’s war.

It’s not philosophical. It’s survival.

Thanks!

Yeah, pretty sure that’s what I did.

I have Ubiquiti UniFi throughout the house, so I’m not using their garbage.

You got any good overviews of RealDebrid outside of “google.”

Not sure where to look for info, but I’ve been doing this for a looooooong time (25+ years?) and always like to learn more. Currently rocking a 125+ TB server hosted in my basement for all my Linux isos and figure there may be another way.

No worries if not! I’m not expecting a novel or anything from anyone personally - just hoping there’s a decent crash course and some decent suggestions.

Maybe a useful tip: check to see if the plans that include their modem rental have unlimited bandwidth.

I’m 99% sure that’s what I’m coasting on, because I don’t pay the extra $$$ for going over any longer.

Edit: trust me when I say I frequently go over. If there’s a decent image host I’ll take a screenshot of last month’s usage.

Friends that use my server call Plex <my first name>-Flix.

Did you guys stop for a while then?

Who else kept their Jolly Roger up knowing it’d come to “this” someday?

HitNews works well for me. Used it for years.

I appreciate the tone! Have a good one.

Awesome, but who said there’s no point? Like, literally. Where?

Maybe you implied that from what I said, but there was no such verbiage.

It’s important to be clear in communicating. I’m sorry that you misunderstood one throw-away line and made an assumption of who I was based on that.

And thank you for the reply, sincerely.

With E2E encryption? Sure.

Edit: Grandma’s got the good stuff. I’ll risk it.

Who said I do nothing?

I’m on the leadership board for my local political party’s senate district as a Table Officer.

I help field manage and campaign with leftist candidates door knocking weekly (edit: and my candidates win).

I’m pretty involved.

Maybe I do those things because of my “worthless perspective”… but… what do you do?

How are you making change? What are you doing besides throwing insults at a person who is helping, especially when volunteers are so hard to come by?

Edit: As you can tell, I’m all “woe is me, let’s do nothing…”
