  • IPad mini 6th gen just delivered for work, new in box, not activated yet. Are there any steps I can take to use it privately outside of work stuff?

    Jump

  • At least in the US, anything you create on a company computer can legally be the property of the company. Any computer programming, hobby projects, writing, media creation, or anything else you do on a company-owned device will most likely belong to them unless it is explicitly stated otherwise in a contract.

    Sorry to say, I don't think there is any way to practically or legally separate personal use on an ipad from work use when it's company issued.

  • On Politics and Proton - a message from Andy

    Jump

  • Am American. Can confirm that we are hyper reactionary. I read the tweet and shrugged it off, and rolled my eyes at the people claiming that Proton was now “dead” to them for bending the knee to Trump and were seeking out alternatives.

    All of our American healthcare horror stories are true. Never take medical systems advice from us; our system is so evil and broken that our only possible recourse is “deposing” CEOs.

  • If you use the LibreWolf browser, you may want to read this.

  • I just looked into using Phoenix but after reading some valid criticisms of the project, along with the pain of setting it up and keeping it updated, it didn’t feel worth it for me.

    And to be clear, Phoenix is not a browser, it is a Firefox config.

  • The Adjuster has entered the chat

  • Bill Burr calls out insurance companies over LA fires—"Free Luigi!"

    Jump

  • That interview on Jimmy Kimmel has an obvious edit shortly after Bill says "free luigi!". I'm not sure if the producers of the show cut the crowd reaction or something else Bill said, but something was definitely cut out.

  • In the US, there is a 1 in 93 chance you will die in a motor vehicle crash in your lifetime

    Jump

  • I am more interested in the percentage of incidents that result in permanent injury.

    The percentage of people in the US who will be permanently injured in a motor vehicle collision is much higher than 1 in 93, and we need to do something about it.

    I think it's a perfectly valid statement to say it is not safe to travel by car in the US, especially as oversized pickup trucks and SUVs have become commonplace on roads.

    Mark Zuckerberg says anyone who quits Meta is 'virtue signaling'

    Jump

  • I forgot that not being part of a platform that just changed its rules to openly allow and advocate for hate speech toward trans people is virtue signaling.

    Sorry that I want trans people to live without harassment and have human rights, I guess. What a virtue signaling asshole I am.

  • Google searches for deleting Facebook, Instagram on the rise after Meta ends fact-checking | TechCrunch

    Jump

  • According to Google Trends, related searches like “how to delete all photos facebook,” “alternative to facebook,” “how to quit facebook,” “how to delete threads account,” and “how to delete instagram account without logging in” have become breakout searches, with popularity suddenly increasing by over 5,000% compared to previous periods.

    So that is 51 times higher than usual? Am I mathing that correctly?

    I wish stories like this wouldn't use percentages this way, and reported hard actual numbers to compare against.

  • My database is absolutely encrypted and I only local sync it.

    Edit: I doubled checked the details of my setup. I am syncing between Android and a mac using Joplin and Nextcloud. I have them set to sync over wi-fi only and the database is encrypted, but it's not a LAN only connection when syncing.

  • Nintendo will reportedly reveal Switch 2 this week

    Jump

  • I think that was certainly true ten years ago. But now? I honestly don't know what to make of Nintendo anymore. They have been so DMCA heavy against customers in recent years that I don't trust them to do anything right. They feel customer hostile.

  • Platforms Systematically Removed a User Because He Made "Most Wanted CEO" Playing Cards

    Jump

  • The fucking banks refused to let him take payments.

  • Revealed: US hazardous waste is sent to Mexico – where a ‘toxic cocktail’ of pollution emerges

    Jump

  • To be fair, it seems like Mexico should have never allowed this toxic dust to be brought into their country in the first place. It sounds like there is no safe way to extract zinc from this dust?

    But if that's the case, the US shouldn't be allowed to sell it to other countries either.

  • Marvel game, developed with the Chinese firm NetEase, ‘bans’ the words ‘free Taiwan’ and ‘Winnie-the-Pooh’

    Jump

  • I guess I can't discuss Taylor Swift's 1989 album while playing Rivals.

  • Why does it seem like Americans have become so hateful and destructive in the past years?

    Jump

  • I would argue that any actual increased aggression could simply be attributed to the state of the country (the US federal government is broken) and the fact that most US americans are not having their needs met financially. The billionaires who run the system dramatically increased the prices of everything that's not optional to pay for: food, housing, insurance, etc..

    People feel helpless, overworked, and angry.

  • Mike Johnson vows to hold aid to California hostage after deadly fires

    Jump

  • I agree, but if Trump putting kids in cages and kidnapping them from their families didn't sway enough voters the first time around, this certainly won't either.

  • Mike Johnson vows to hold aid to California hostage after deadly fires

    Jump

  • California should be like: "We will not negotiate with terrorists."

  • Trump Flies Flag at Full Staff During Carter Mourning Period

    Jump

  • Some american flags in L.A. are probably currently on fire. I wonder if Trump is going to claim all Californians are terrorists who proudly burn the flag and hate America.

  • Trump Flies Flag at Full Staff During Carter Mourning Period

  • They're been quiet for seventy days now.

  • In time, I hope you come to reject the propaganda you just posted.

    The green party doesn't exist to screw you all over. It's made up of real people who believe in the tenets of the party. The fact that the voting system is broken in 48 states and is "first past the post" is not the fault of the green party.

    The green party exists to try and win, just like the two bigger parties. One could just as equally claim that the democratic party only exists to siphon off green party votes.
