I hate what a pain in the ass they make everything. Its a normie safe you know?
Kinda miss the days of just plugging a cable into the damn phone line
One weekend on dial-up, I spent all Saturday waiting for the XWing bs Tie Fighter demo to download. 6 of 6.1mb, almost done. Then my sister picked up the phone...
@dsm @mitchconner That always did it...
I had these old school speakers connected to my soundcard...you know the magnetic ones?
My mom once went into my room and started cleaning all OCD, fucking stacked all my 3.5 disks on top of the damn speaker...straight wiped them
@dsm @mitchconner I keep watching these interrogation videos and people just.....unlock their iphones for the cops first time the get asked...like ffs.
If anything its a legal strategy to take the at least 30% chance that those idiots will lose/break/steal your device long before they figure out how to get into it.
It's just gone. Walk away from $150,000 or they will find a reason civil forfeiture applies.
@dsm @mitchconner Oh yeah those idiots....you're just out the money.
I always laugh....they're lke "we have some really qualified guys in IT....they'll get into that <encrypted device>
yeah break 512 AES fuck nugget....I dare you lol
@WilhelmIII @mitchconner @dsm Naw, not at all. They rely on third party security companies hoarding zero days. Licensing for that shit usually starts around $10k at least.
In most cases they have to physically bring the shit into the lab because said companies won't even trust any of that shit to not get out.
Its a major nightmare for them to get into phones.
The Provisional Wing of the Irish Republican Army used to use a drill to interrogate people assumed to be disloyal.
Drilling about 1/4 into the spot just below the patella is extremely effective at getting people to tell you what you want to know. And it's not permanently debilitating. You can walk out of the room afterward.
If the cops REALLY want into your phone, you will give them access.
"The police" becomes "a story i heard about the IRA." Fucking retard.
Retard, I speak from experience. Try shutting up once in a while, ya dumb bitch.
@dsm @mitchconner @WilhelmIII Its always a real shame when you drop those keyfiles somewhere......darn it where did those go??
lmfao
@mitchconner @dsm @WilhelmIII Its not the way people think it is.
Like I was saying earlier they rely on douche security outfits to use exploits and zero days to get into them. Its costly and difficult process...mainly with newer phones still receiving security updates.
One thing apple and google do is spend a fuck ton on money on security features.

According to our dear bobo-leftist-woke politicians, we’re supposed to weep for the “good old days” when only the rich could afford to travel and broaden their horizons. Oh yes, it was so much better back then… for the rich, of course!
Because honestly, it’s unbearable to find yourself stuck right in the middle of a herd of tourists in Florence, between selfie-stick mania and croissants sold on the sly.

Mayor Plante, aka Madam Disaster of Montreal. On the big day of the housing crisis, she’s back in town, filming herself handing out Timbits to new tenants all smiles like it’s a kids’ party.
In the middle of a housing crisis? No, no, it’s more like a scene from a bad sci-fi movie where the mayor thinks a few donuts will fix the city’s roof problems.
Surreal, pathetic, and above all, completely out of touch with the real life of Montrealers.

En pleine pire crise du logement qu’on ait vue depuis que le Québec existe, elle a eu le génie – tenez-vous bien – de leur suggérer d’aller chercher du « coaching » pour se trouver un toit. Oui, du coaching! Comme si les locataires n’étaient pas déjà assez démunis, voilà qu’on leur conseille de prendre rendez-vous avec un gourou du logement, comme si ça allait arranger leurs affaires.
C’est pitoyable, c’est grotesque, et surtout, ça prouve qu’elle comprend autant à l’habitation que moi au concours de beauté.
Der Spiegel nennt es einen "radikalen Emigrationsplan", so viel zur journalistischen Lauterkeit und zum politischen Mut der Journalist:innen, die beim ehemaligen "Sturmgeschütz für die Demokratie" Lohnarbeit verrichten. Dabei könnten sie sich auf das Vorbild einer der wichtigsten Tageszeitungen Israels berufen, um zur Abwechslung Klartext zu schreiben.
In einem bitterböse Kommentar nimmt Zvi Bar'el in Haaretz das Wort "Konzentrationslager" in den Mund und fordert, dass es auch ein Lagerorchester gibt, das die internationalen Beobachter:innen unterhält, wenn sie den humanen Charakter des Lagers absegnen.
Gideon Levy spricht - ebenfalls in Haaretz (Opinion | The Jewish State Is Building a Ghetto) - von der "letzten Phase vor einem Genozid". Selbstverständlich werden derartige Worte in den Presseschauen deutscher Medien eher nicht erwähnt, sie könnten ja die Festungsmentalität der deutschen Staatsräson durchlöchern.
Vor einer Woche schrieb Levy in Haaretz:
»Gaza ist ein Paralleluniversum«, sagte ein Offizier gegenüber Haaretz. Das ist der Kern der Sache, die Frage des Völkermords. Gaza ist kein Paralleluniversum.
Gaza ist das Gesicht der IDF und des Staates Israel. Was in Gaza geschieht, wird nicht in Gaza bleiben, auch wenn die meisten israelischen Medien dies wünschen. Was in Gaza geschieht, definiert Israel in der Welt, und was in Gaza geschieht, wird die israelische Gesellschaft für viele Jahre prägen. Wenn Israel zum
Völkermordstaat erklärt wird, dann ist es Israel, das zu einem Paralleluniversum."
(Übersetzung junge Welt)
Wären deutsche Politiker:innen und Journalist:innen wirkliche Freund:innen Israels, wie sie ein ums andere Mal behaupten, dann würden sie dafür sorgen, dass es nicht so weit kommt. Statt dessen unterstützen sie den Prozess, der Israel zu einem Pariah in der Staatenwelt machen könnte. Auch eine Form des "israelbezogenen Antisemitismus" ...

In 2024, 17 million electric vehicles were sold worldwide. Of those, 11 million came from the same country: China. The only serious non-Chinese competitor in electric cars is Tesla. Tesla’s sales have taken a big hit due to Elon Musk’s political ties with Trump. And now, the company risks suffering further from the political war between Musk and the not-so-democratic President Trump.

At this rate, we might as well install ATMs directly in people’s pockets… and let the scammers help themselves, it’ll be faster.

Me four years ago: Apple's spying on people getting naked & doing sex stuff, its a huge violation of privacy, & everyone should be concerned about it
Four years: state & US gov does nothing
Apple in July 2025: it's a "feature" now!
@aymm How do you know they're only doing it on device?
I revealed that even though "Gobbler" was an app on employees phones, that Apple tried to say was opt-in and on device, uploaded a ton of information itself, but also all information via iCloud backups including pics, GPS, biometrics, etc. Apple also used the employee app to get pics & biometrics of non-employees, and said employees can't tell anyone its happening.
So, I'd like more details about this "feature" & how they're developing it
@aymm Agreed, while I personally trust (and I say that word begrudgingly with big tech) Apple to care more about doing these sorts of things correctly and truly privately compared to the others, I can only extend that trust to the length of my throw remembering what they tried / have done in the past.
We are mostly hinging on the claim until private research or a scandal breaks out, which is very unfortunate.

Our useful idiots in politics and their opportunistic little eco-woke bureaucrats keep lecturing us: “Buy local! Within 15 minutes of your home!” … Meanwhile, they’re flying around in private jets and treating themselves to the best of everything, of course. Except their absurd taxes, anti-business policies, and “zero parking” rules here in Quebec have killed off all the small shops. No more bakeries, no more butchers… Luckily, in my area, a fruit shop that had closed down recently reopened. But even on foot, all you find are big chain stores – and even those are vanishing. So in the end, you’re forced to shop online. Amazon sends them a big thank you, by the way.

Diplomacy or Submission? The Zionist Grip on U.S. Political Power and Trump’s Uneasy Alliance with Netanyahu
By Scott #Rickard
In analyzing #Trump's interactions with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin #Netanyahu, it becomes increasingly evident that their relationship is neither one of mutual respect nor shared values, but rather a performance dictated by entrenched political coercion. Despite public displays of solidarity, Trump’s demeanor—particularly during joint appearances with Netanyahu—reveals discomfort and a lack of genuine rapport. These interactions stand in stark contrast to his more relaxed and visibly enthusiastic engagements with leaders from Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and other Middle Eastern states, where economic and strategic negotiations were central and beneficial to U.S. interests.¹This dissonance suggests that Trump’s alignment with Netanyahu is not driven by national interest or ideology, but rather by a deep-rooted fear of political reprisal from the powerful pro-Israel lobbying apparatus in the United States. Organizations like the American Israel Public Affairs Committee ( #AIPAC), coupled with influential billionaire donors and tightly controlled political patronage networks, have created a political environment where deviation from pro-Israel orthodoxy can spell the end of a political career.² The unspoken threat of reputational or legal exposure—symbolized for many by the unresolved implications of the Jeffrey #Epstein network³—adds an additional layer of unacknowledged coercion.
Trump’s public posture toward Netanyahu thus appears less like diplomacy and more like forced compliance—a survival tactic within a system dominated by Zionist political pressure. The American public is led to believe this is a strategic alliance based on shared democratic values. In reality, it is a spectacle of submission, maintained through a combination of lobbying power, media influence, and financial entanglement.⁴
If Trump were genuinely committed to an “America First” doctrine, he would resist foreign manipulation rather than acquiesce to it. Instead, his administration—like many before it—remained entangled in Israel’s political priorities, often to the detriment of broader #US diplomatic credibility.The larger implication is damning: the U.S. political infrastructure, long championed as a beacon of sovereignty and democratic agency, has been deeply compromised by an external lobby operating with near impunity.
This is not alliance. This is extortion dressed in the costume of diplomacy.References:

Wolves will also move on without finishing the carcass. As we share this world together we realize there are some who feed on the human world. Killing them is appropriate.
Regretfully many silly little city dwellers cannot understand.

En fait, 36,5 % des activités de l'agence visent à "protéger l'#agriculture, y compris le #bétail, les #cultures en rangs, l'#aquaculture et le #bois ", et une grande partie de son budget de 286 millions de dollars est consacrée à la protection de l'environnement.
