Civilized countries don't engage in death penalties. Not that I wouldn't appreaciate an exception here and there, but, ya know, just saying.

Rhe problem is that half the voters are 50+ and at least half of that half is completely detached from reality

Yes, and I think it is actually up to discussion whether he is a she or anything with gender at all. Pretty mean Captcha

I would add that in many places, you will find absolutely no English signs or menus. I don't know how it is in Munich, but outside airports and central stations you are often SOL if you speak 0 German and don't have a way to translate text from images.

The main problem is control ig. On Signal, someone can ask for a code or passwords to log into your account or get your data. If you have your own solution, you can have physical security keys to verify yourself, making it impossible to give anything to anyone via the internet. You can also monitor logins and make logins on new, unauthorized devices impossible.

Encrypting stuff is not really the hard part of keeping oblivious users safe. As far as that goes, they will be fine if they have people who know what they are doing use established, well audited implementations.

I got a Swatch from their collab with Omega (as in 'the famous watch brand', although 'OMEGA COLLAB' totally sounds like a meme). It is kinda cool. Very light, ticks quite loud (I like ticking), looks stylish... But it only came with one strap and it is not only a velcro one, it's also ever so slightly too large for me. That is both weird and disappointing. I think it is made of ceramic, not plastik, but I might resell it nonetheless.

Not only that, they had solid hardware, a good OS, and then for some reason thougt it would be a great idea to charge people for publishing apps. Consequently, there were none. Funnily enough, Nokia did the same and also failed because of it. I think exactly this is also part of the reason why Blackberry failed.

Corpos not seeing how people mostly use free software on iOS/Android (or in fucking general) is mind-boggling

Ich wette die Leute, die wahnhaft in die Rettung dieses Tieres investiert waren, schwurbeln sich jetzt irgendwas vonwegen "die Regierung war's" oder "man hätte nur schneller sein müssen" zusammen, damit man sich jetzt nicht eingestehen muss, dass die Experten wie immer Recht hatten.

Current Hantavirus strains are not infectious enough to cause a pamdemic. Evidently it couldn't even infect a single ship. It's just media clickbait

Listen, I don't like to satisfy myself either, but either you do it or I'll have to keep going

A really effective measure to make him make a new account

duh
