Precisely

I mean depends on how you count them, but probably something like that.

I’m a professional, I have thousands of tools I use on a regular basis, and I use them to make money

literally almost a 1:1 discord clone

If you read the blog, it’s because the dev studied the Discord code very closely and did their best to mimic it.

Though E2EE isn’t currently on the solo dev’s roadmap

It is on the roadmap. It says it right on the project homepage.

You might also elect not to. Tell me, what do you think is the purpose of this special fastener?

I’ll never get it because first-party ads are only a small part of the problem. Shitty rec algos, Shorts absolutely rammed the fuck down your throat, third-party ads, dislike counters, gaslighting you about the resolution, clickbait blockers, cross platform feed, etc. These are all solved with third party clients.

No setup required, just go to duck.ai

Here’s my counterargument: https://gizmodo.com/reddit-meta-and-google-voluntarily-gave-dhs-info-of-anti-ice-users-report-says-2000722279

Would you like to share anything at all with us about your browser, other than the source code?

If you absolutely must use ChatGPT, you can do it with Duck.ai as a proxy to protect your personal info.

Jesus Christ, it’s not like I didn’t expect it but fuuuuuuck nonetheless…

“But I have nothing to hide” WHAT NOW MOTHERFUCKERS

Will probably be on blog soon:

I read the entire paragraph and at no time did you address your failed analogy that these are not for theft prevention. But thank you for acknowledging that you have no idea what they’re for. You’re being blocked now.

Nah.

You mean apples proprietary bit

One and only (AFAIK)

instead of the one specific locking bit they now have this specific locking bit?

Did you just completely ignore what I said about this being a security item?

The only moron here is the one who doesn’t read comments before replying to them. If you can’t tell me what you think the purpose of this bolt is, then don’t reply to me again.

I said the platform is expected to support self hosting soon, that it’s expected to support federation later, and that it’s just something to keep an eye on. Ergo, it will not, in fact, require an account on a centralized service.

It’s a special bit, that’s it.

More likely it’s a whole set of bits. Why do you think they’re doing this? Apple invented a new screw. Why do you think they did that? None of it is intended to slow down professional repair businesses, it’s to stop DIYers.

You might as well complain about locking lug nuts as a whole because that’s really all this is.

LOL locking lugnuts prevent theft. Do you think that’s what the purpose of this is?

That was my first thought as well. I love torx bolts. I worked on BMWs professionally for a few years and never in all that time did I ever strip a torx bolt. Not even 1.

Of course, the engine bolts themselves snapped frequently without even touching them due to galvanic reaction to the magnesium block, and the much weaker in general aluminum bolts, but that’s a different problem.

I’m sure they will but that requires owners to go out and buy a kit of specialty tools for that one job, which may be too much investment. And many people are just not savvy enough to do that, they see “specialty tools” and throw up their hands.

looks like a great alternative for the kinds of Discord servers
