  • Hundreds of smartphone apps are monitoring users through their microphones

    Jump

  • I'm part of those people. The usual argument is that everybody's phone is listening all the time, without agreeing to permissions or showing the mic notification or anything like that. I've never seen any proof of that. This article is about a bunch of shovelware apps (Pool 3D, Beer pong: Trickshot, Honey Quest etc) that aren't even listed anymore. There's nothing about them skirting permissions or hiding the notification.

    People see the headline and assume it's Facebook et al.

  • feddit.uk has been defederated from lemmy.blahaj.zone

  • I disagree with this, and I'd downvote it, but it sounds like they're just repeating what the supreme court said. I don't think it deserves a ban.

    Completely defederating with us over this is insane

  • Yes partially, but for some actions you need to answer security questions

  • Somebody signed up for an Apple account with my email address, apparently before they required email confirmation. There's no way for me to remedy this, so I'm apparently just supposed to deal with somebody else using my email for an Apple ID. Their support treated me like an idiot for an annoyingly long amount of time.

    Support: "Sir I can't give you access to somebody else's account. Do you understand that?"

    Me: "I don't want access, I just want to use my own email. That's my email address on that account"

    Support: "If that's your email address, then that's your account sir"

    Me: "No it's not my account"

    Support: "Then what's your problem?"

    Apple are the only company this has happened with (people commonly use my email address for things, but there's always a way to reclaim it)

  • Of course they're both horrible but then what's the point of this meme? That they're both bad?

    In landmark ruling, UK's top court says legal definition of woman refers to biological sex

    Jump

  • These statements make it all the more maddening. How can you say it's not a triumph for one side while they literally toast champagne on your doorstep. Fucking old cunts, you know you'll all be dead soon and we'll just change the law anyway.

  • What's with "checks notes" everywhere?

    Jump

  • At least it's becoming less common for people to start comments with "Imagine..."

  • If you can't handle my ribs at 3am, you don't deserve my ribs at 6:30pm

  • I brought you a rib

    Jump

  • Yep, I wasn't being sarcastic when I said I'm glad they're happy. What a wonderful world we live in that these two ne'er-do-wells can find each other.

  • I brought you a rib

    Jump

  • Glad they're happy but I would be pissed off beyond measure. You woke me up at 3am for this? No I don't want ribs at this time. I have to be up for work soon. Why are they even ready at this time anyway? Did it not occur to you that slow cooking might take a while? And to top it all off you want to eat them in bed and stain my sheets gtfo

  • Trans student’s arrest for violating Florida bathroom law is thought to be a first

    Jump

  • I've said this before but I really want to hear some stories of trans men using the womens bathroom in these places. Big muscular men with bald heads and beards, barging in pissing everywhere and leaving toilet seats up.

    I want to see the meltdown when people find out they're just following the law. Please trans bros do this for me.
