Isn’t it weird how even though you’re annoying as shit, you still haven’t been banned from this community? Worth thinking about

Do you maybe want to try and converse? Instead of leaving a vague response hinting at a deeper perspective, how about you actually share that perspective? Who else do we have to fear at present, and how do you reckon rendering a file on your computer irrecoverable would protect you from them?

By my reckoning, if you live under a government that would arrest you for excercizing speech, you’re well beyond fucked by the time they seize your computer

Destroying the data on your hard drive only helps you if you think that files stored on it could incriminate you in court. ICE isn’t sending your laptop in to a special forensics technician at DHS HQ to pull the 1s and 0s off of it to generate a justification for abducting and/or shooting you. Standard end to end encryption is plenty enough for online communications

Feels like it’s easier to just not have anything on your hard drive that’s worth that much effort. I can only think of one type of file that would justify that level of obfuscation in most of the world, and I actually fully support owners of those files turning their PCs over to the police unmolested, so to speak

Their fault for torrenting without a VPN

My favorite conspiracy theory is that Coca-Cola isn’t nearly as popular as they pretend it is, but they spend so much on marketing that everyone just thinks it’s that popular. Everyone I know prefers Dr Pepper

Oh Christ. You’ve just triggered a premonition in me–the Galaxy S32 Ultra will be the first smartphone with no physical buttons or ports. You can turn it “off,” but that will only turn on a sort of extreme power saving mode. It will still ping your location once every few minutes, and will keep the fingerprint scanner active. You will “turn on” the device by holding your finger on the fingerprint scanner for four seconds. They will advertise the “quick startup” as a new feature. Volume will be controlled by sliding your finger along the right edge of the phone, which the screen will wrap around all the way to the back. It will be impossible to hold the phone without touching some part of the screen.

It will only allow wireless charging. You will not be able to connect it directly to a computer. In marketing, this will be to meet rigorous water safety standards. In reality, this will be to prevent you from using ADB to remove apps that come with the phone. You cannot turn off mobile data. You cannot turn off location. You cannot use a third party SMS application. You cannot choose your own wallpaper. You cannot set a private DNS. You cannot install applications that haven’t been approved by Samsung. You cannot block ads. This is all covered on page 74 of subsection 32(a) of section G8 of the terms and conditions that you agreed to when you set up the phone.

They will meet the physical limitations of how well a small lens can focus light. Zoom will cap out at 150x. Nevertheless, there will be seven cameras.
