@m0xee this sort of bug you're mentioning has absolutely nothing to do with what i'm talking about, the same sort of bugs happen all the time on free software systems too. please don't @ me with red herrings
@shali@kolektiva.social it would be violent, for example, for you (as an example person who is in public who does not wish me to take your photograph) to try to use force to *stop* me when i've done nothing to harm you. emotional upset is not harm, you are of course free to ignore people who are doing things you don't like.
@shali@kolektiva.social i have a right to take a photograph of anyone in a public place. anything i can see i can record. consent doesn't enter into it, my photographing others is my own right and doesn't harm or infringe the rights of anyone else (in public). you keep bringing up consent but it's not relevant here. you don't need my consent to continue to reply, for example. you're still doing it even though i don't consent. turns out my consent to things that don't concern me is irrelevant
curious: the bootable 12.1 installer won't boot my 8c last-of-the-x64 rMBP machine after a full internal drive wipe. it insists on internet recovery.
macs become less trustworthy by the day.
astounding to me that the tech press hasn't picked up on the fact that 12.1 is still shipping scaffolding for clientside privacy destruction by scanning your local files.
@GirthyChode @arh i mean it's a very simple philosophical matter - executing someone for any reason violates the NAP.
@GirthyChode @arh no, neither of those things are fair, this is a violent and insane position to take. rage and vengeance has no place in civilization. murdering someone because they murdered is not something civilized people do.
@doenietzomoeilijk it's just slow, but selecting all of the messages and moving to trash works. then you have to empty the trash. each step takes a while
i am against the death penalty. this is not a very good example of why the death penalty is bad, though.
@wowaname also, even if that were false, convincing SDEs in the military-industrial complex that a) extremists are a threat, and b) their actions directly combat extremists/The Other are essential to morale and team cohesion. but also, i think the statement is objectively factually accurate: tor is used by extremists. (privacy extremists, islamic extremists, american patriotism extremists... many types)
@wowaname where's the lie
@lxo i don't agree. i think almost all important human progress has been carried out by small groups, working mostly unknown to the majority of humans.
i look at all the progress we have made, and i see this, and i have come to realize that the median level of human reasoning ability has not really changed much in several thousand years:
from the "Round Rects Are Everywhere!" story from spring of 1981:

In the very first line, something I missed before: Bill Atkinson, one of the most productive and valuable contributors of all time to Apple's SDE efforts, worked mostly at home, coming in to the office only when necessary. 1981.
extremely excited to switch to ungoogled android (graphene) as my daily driver as soon as my pixel 6 pro arrives. i put a folder of jpegs into a folder on my desktop and syncthing made them magically appear in my photos app (in their own album). i took a picture on the phone and the file magically appeared on my desktop. syncthing is wonderful.
