Number of features that is has? Sure.

Number of features that I need? Google Sheets wins.

As I use Excel at work, I’d be happy if you prove me wrong here. Just yesterday I needed to do a simple search/replace with regular expressions. My solution was to copy the data to Google Sheets.

I spent some time looking into this, getting nowhere. What’s your favorite library that actually works for you?

I don’t use a sound bar because it’s cheap, I can get surround sound for half the price.

I use a sound bar because I don’t want speakers anywhere but on the TV, plus a subwoofer hidden away.

And it sounds waaay better than just the TV.

(Although the box said that it delivers surround sound, but in that respect it’s no better than the built in speakers, as expected.)

The point is they don’t have to proof if a piece of random data is indeed an encrypted blob.

But they do need to suspect it.

If they find an encrypted blob, ask for the decryption key, they decrypt the data and analyse the decrypted data, then they may not suspect that a different decryption key will reveal a different set of data.

I spent a few minutes researching this, and I still have no idea what the problem is. Or any motivation to keep researching.

Honestly, I might be part of the problem. I’m a white guy, and there are basically no black people in my life. I don’t see any in the streets, at work, at home or here. Especially here, I have no idea who anyone is.

Basically, I have no reason to get involved. However, I don’t want to be part of the problem. So if you spoonfeed me information I can use to make life better for “the blackness” (I’m very confused about the terminology), I will happily read it and try to remember it.

So don’t just tell me the solution, none of the TLDR makes any sense to me. Spend a few words on the problem.

As far as I can tell, there’s basically two kinds of people:

1 - People who just don’t care about other people in the Fediverse. They will not read any of this, there’s nothing you can write here that will change anything for them.

2 - People who are trying to be nice, but don’t always succeed. They will listen to advice, but nothing will change by telling them to be nice, be less racist, or to listen to people even if they are black. That’s what they are already trying to do.

TeamViewer blocked me for using it commercially. I have no idea why, I’m only using it to support 3 family members.

Those conditions would be illegal to put a pig in here.

My first PC was FULL of memory. It had ALL the memory. No amount of money could add more. It had 640KB. It was crazy.

My first computer wasn’t a PC, it had 64KB RAM. I never needed more.

When I was in Denmark I was shocked how many cameras there were, everywhere. I mean not just in the city, but everywhere on the countrywide.

I’ve lived in Denmark for decades. The only cameras I see are basically surveillance cameras in stores etc and speed cameras. I see more cameras in most other countries I go to.

We have nothing compared to fx. London.

Where did you see cameras?

Denmark is one of those weird countries where its illegal to have your map software tell you where the speed cameras are.

That’s not correct. You can even buy gadgets for this in many stores.

Security is a spectrum. Telegram has never been the most secure alternative, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have any security.

If it’s “just a phone”, it’s not running Android. No Android that I ever heard of is “just a phone”.

Are you seriously saying that the customer who pays full price and no more is “a piece of shit”, and not management who chooses to underpay the staff?

I’m not having any of that. I’d rather just not eat out. Enjoy no tip AND one less customer.

I’ll pay extra when I get extra. I paid over 150% yesterday. I’ve given big tips for free services. People sometimes give my cash tip back assuming I accidentally gave them 10x my intention. But not when it’s a simple transaction when I get what I ordered and I’m paying the advertised price.
