Because much commentary is now being posted about the killing of a man in Minneapolis today by armed and masked federal agents, and because my previous thread about this today has grown long, I'm starting a separate thread about this now.
"There is some dispute now whether that was ICE or Customs and Border Patrol, wrestling an individual to the ground. He appeared to be motionless."

"Another day, another dead Minnesotan. Shot in the street while getting pinned down by masked federal thugs. And Donald Trump and Kristi Noem and Greg Bovino wasted no time putting out narratives that donโt at all square with the videos weโre seeing. But who you gonna believe? Them, or your lyinโ eyes?"

"RIP, Alex Jeffrey Pretti, an intensive-care nurse by trade. Intensive-care nurses, not typically being he most war-like people. And who the goon squad is already slandering as a 'domestic terrorist.' Yeah, Iโm for stopping domestic terrorism, too. Which is why someone should arrest Stephen Miller, who takes demented pleasure in waging war on his own people. While prompting his corrupt boss to do the same."

in light of today's events, i want to share a story i was told during a study abroad summer in italy, where i took a class on the rise of fascism.
the picture below is the site of a mass grave. captive partisans were brought here by nazis, forced to dig, and then executed on the spot.
Friendly reminder that Signalโwhile maybe not perfectโis a much better choice for communication than RCS, especially if you are communicating anything sensitive. Doubly true if you are on iOS or communicating with anyone who is, as Apple still does not even use end-to-end encryption for RCS like Google does on Android.
@npub1k06ctulq8rcaen067tt6z3y6gxrqtsuje5em5lcn009zfpp0t7gqf0zyu9 So here you are saying that this app that my parents and neighbors actually use is bad compared to some other things I have never heard of before, one of which wonโt have an app until next year, and which arenโt used by any people I know?
(*fart noise*)
@MisuseCase ArcaneChat is just a #chatmail client, you can use #DeltaChat that is the official client it is available in all platforms and it is decentralized, doesn't require phone numbers or any private data, it has much better multi-device and multi-profile support etc.

hi, you don't need to copy or share your email address in ArcaneChat, you will even have several of those in the future, they are used for relaying, think of them as #nostr relays, your identity is your encryption key just like on nostr, you should share your invite link, not your email address, that said, if you really want to copy it, it is in your invite link, just replace %40 for @, hope this helps, and thanks for using AC
look, if you don't want to update because you want to "do what you want" then that is your decision and your problem
ArcaneChat is a chat app focused on security, copying email addresses is only useful for sending unencrypted email which is not a use case of ArcaneChat, and the security of people will not be put at risk making it easy to copy the address and try to send unencrypted by accident just because you want to

> Lets not be mellodramatic & blow things out of porportion
Friend, you are the only one being melodramatic ๐ I am here relaxed telling you the option to copy email is not coming back, that your identity is your key, that you should share your link instead, that you will have several addresses/relays, this was a security measure, it is pointless for you to cry about it, there is no way back
@npub1k06ctulq8rcaen067tt6z3y6gxrqtsuje5em5lcn009zfpp0t7gqf0zyu9
(continuation)
yep the app will continue improving, the option to copy email address is not coming back, so you will not be receiving all the upcoming improvements tho
about webxdc, there is nothing wrong if app creators want to promote their political views in their apps, you have the option of not using them if you don't like them, there is no reason to censor them

Checked out a particular current dish washer model from Neff. Their website offers a 375 page (!) document full of Open Source licenses for it. For a fricking dish washer.
Yes that includes #curl.
Thanks for your toot!
The urge to connect every thing to the Internet astonishes me. I enjoy other people's observations and complaints about the Bidness World's belief that we are all idIoTs.
This thread reminded me of a story from a galaxy far, far away - timewise. Before the Internet. Even before FRED, the first PC. The story is "The Robot Millennia", in "Galaxies Like Grains of Sand" by Brian Aldiss, New American LIbrary (1960). It was prescient, and fun. But no IoT.

@Bri With only the vlc libs installed, I still get the following:
Could not play audio: 41, unsupported file format
Very odd. That's also without the deno path being loaded.

Ich habe mehrere Jahre Dualboot genutzt. Seit Windows 10 wรผrde ich persรถnlich das nur noch versierten Benutzern empfehlen. Windows ist da eine ziemliche Schweinebacke und hat da keine Skrupel, dir z.B. nach einem Update mal kurz den Bootloader zu zerschiessen. Nicht lustig, fรผr die " Nur-Anwender:in".
Daher, wenn mรถglich, Linux nach erfolgreichem Live-Test ab USB Stick beim Installieren die ganze Festplatte geben. Und falls doch noch zwingend ein Windows benรถtigt wird, dieses per Virtual Box o.รค. nutzen.
Das "sieht" man aber nicht vorher oder nur beim ausprobieren. Das lรคuft wunderbar nebeneinander, bis zu dem Punkt, wo Windows findet, es wรคre mal an der Zeit, zu zeigen, wer der Donald auf der Kiste ist. Und dann tuts weh. Darum empfehle ich das fรผr Umsteiger gar nicht mehr.

It makes sense that people who have completely abandoned their humanity want to replace humanity with software. The people pushing AI have no idea what art and music are.
They have no idea how a story can make a soul shiver and bend and laugh and weep.
They have no idea what it means to be truly human in this world, knowing that you are connected with all life.
They only want to replace humans with sickly, unthinking toys.

I think people will get confused by the way you formulated the post "secure messaging app" that is why you will get recommendations for Delta Chat and other encrypted messengers, maybe better clarify you mean "secure SMS app" to avoid confusion, and btw I recommend you to give a try to #DeltaChat as replacement for Signal, no phone number or any data required, decentralized, good multi-device, etc.
for SMS I liked "QKSMS" but that was years ago, see successor:
