I mean no, it doesn’t, youre right.
Declaring income would be what most of those charities ans whatnot would prolly need to do somewhere at least. So I find this story dubious.
At the same time though, it is technically possible for him to have put money on crypto and email someone the keys to the wallets.
I’m just pretentious, not actually British
Yes that is what a space lift is yes
All this is to say that no, asteroid mining is not, and may never be, feasible>
Not through rockets no, but if we ever manage to build a space lift or a sky hook then the maths will radically change.
They accidentally deposited one cheque in the 50’s.
It’s not like its any money on a government scale. Hell, even on a personal level it’s cheap as fuck for an annual rent. My small duplex has a highers rent than what America pays in rent for gitmo; ~4000$
that was sold for years on the agreement that they would not be able to harvest this data (simply because I could run them without connecting to the internet). Now I still have that option of course, but I will eventually trade product updates to do so
So you’re saying “I’m eventually going to value updates to these products more than my privacy and my data, despite me having the option of not doing that, keeping my data, and still having the same functionality in the lamps they had when I purchased them”?
I don’t know what your problem seems to be.
It’s cool that you don’t care about your autonomy and privacy
Autonomy. Yes. My autonomy is deprived from me because some random sweaty bro is crying online that companies are companies.
So you’re gonna trade your autonomy and privacy for some pathetic updates on your lamps? It seems like you don’t care about your privacy. Where do you live again? If not in the GDPR area your data is traded in thousands of places where mine isn’t.
I do care about mine, but I’m not such a moron that I think that caring about it makes any difference on a personal level. I care about it because of the societal implications it has, not because I’m a paranoid incel who’s afraid of some random company having checks notes info on how many lamps of theirs I have at home.
I have a wifi specifically for guests and shit devices that might need it. It doesn’t really matter who has access to it.
Again, what is it that I’m supposed to be so afraid of? No-one can blackmail me on anything, I have no digital assets (even money) to steal.
I’m politically on the correct side of this issue because I understand the consequences in the bigger picture. I don’t know if you even see a bigger picture, it just sounds like you have have paranoid delusions of being persecuted.
Have you thought about seeing a mental health care professional to get checked out?
And whoops, it turns out they stored a ton more than they needed to, your address, your lighting schedule, how many rooms are in your house, names of users with access to your home, etc. and whoops, turns out they did the bare minimum to secure their serv
I have literally no fucking problem with them knowing any of that — which they’re wouldn’t from my data.
Even if they recorded the actual signal strength of each bulb in relation to the Bridge, they wouldn’t know how many rooms I have. My naming scheme and placement scheme in the app does not reflect reality in the slightest, nor do the names of my devices. They’re half-arbitrary alphanumeric combos, like OH1 and CX2. And even if they did, my apartment size isn’t exactly a state secret?
Hue having any of that data is far less scary than the potential of me getting stabbed on the way home.
Now, just to make sure you understand, I don’t agree with any of the data that probably is collected on me. But whilst I’d rather them not have it, it honestly doesn’t makena bit of difference practically.
Are you European or not? Just curious because if you are, do you always stop to refuse cookies, even “legitimate interest”? Do you avoid sites which don’t allow you to do that?
Or are not European and don’t even have the option?
Because I’ve genuinely spent literal hours in the past few years scrolling through the lists of hundreds of vendors to individually click them off.
But sometimes those popups are designed so you’ll accidentally click the accept all. And on occasion it has happened. So… what’s the practical difference?
Aa I’ve shown you, ideologically I do stand and act on the side of privacy. But do I really care or fear “malicious actors”?
Even if you had my every single password and id, you wouldn’t be able to harm me in any way. What are you gonna do, add money to my account? Improve my credit?
No.
The only malicious actors that I’m concerned with are the local police.
I’ve had Philips Hue for like 6-7 years now I think, I only registered a few weeks ago when I bought a new phone and wanted to get all my all configurations to my new phone without much hassle. I don’t mind them being connected as there’s no cameras or sensors on them and I’m not looking to buy any of their sensors or anything.
Also I trust EU regulations to be such that Philips can’t deprive me of basic functionality on these. Also also, the scripts for these were rather simple, to the point that despite me not having touched a single line of code for like 15-years, and even before that only having done it for some courses, I could easily manage a script to manage them.
Just took a clip at 240 fps, no flickering. Reading the earlier post I was like wondering about flickering, because I’ve never had any as all my bulbs are Hue Colours.

edit I can’t get the line formattin right but you get the gist
“Unmanned” doesn’t mean “driverless”.
Pretty sure RC cars existed before RC airplanes.
I don’t usually eat more than once or maybe twice a day but often still take more than one shit.
Everyone’s bowels are bitty different.
Bambersnitch Tittlebbitch reading for Letters Live? Is it about pingvings?
I second that it’s a good channel.
Loved the one with Tom Hiddleston.
So the headline would be a lot of better if it had includes an indefinite article.
“An Achilles Heel of…” instead of implying it’s the definite article
“Hopefully my bowels aren’t able to absorb water?”
That’s literally their job. There are filters, you don’t absorb waste from your colon, but water and nutrients.
The colon is the longest part of the large intestine. It receives almost completely digested food from the cecum, absorbs water and nutrients, and passes waste (stool or feces) to the rectum. The colon is divided into 4 parts: The ascending colon is the start of the colon.
Diarrhoea is often a problem with the absorption of water in the colon instead of the body “flushing water” into your digestive tract.
Like the main job of the colon is water absorption, so the digested mush turns into stool that can be deposited in the rectum for to be expelled through the anus.
If that absorption doesn’t work then it’s just coming thorough and that’s diarrhoea
So you think it’s not good to expose Russian disinformation? Or are you saying he isn’t spreading Russian disinformation?
Because you’re saying one or the other with this “you’re being sad, stop being like that, you’re writing too much”. This is a forum. People write on forums. If a text long enough to merely have paragraphs instead of pages is too long for you, then I can’t help you.
Look at his profile.
Then look at my post.
Then look at the modlogs from the times on the screenshots of those posts.
It’s common knowledge lemmygrad.ml and lemmy.ml are complete tankies. D’you know why?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_disinformation
One of the easiest ways to spot Russians disinfo is when they pretend to be stupid to say that Russia doesn’t use disinfo, or that at least definitely not on Lemmy, no way.
And the exact same guys absolutely refuse to answer a simple yes or no question. Are you pro-Russian or not? Are you?
While claiming they’re American. Saying Russia is doing all the right things while criticising every Russian enemy and supporting China. Literally everything is in line with Russian propaganda. Yet they can’t say whether they’re pro-Russian or not. While clearly being pro-Russian, and adamantly claiming to be American?
That isn’t enough for you to figure it out? Alrighty then, let’s do it the way he does; just spam the ever living fuck out of anything tangentially related.

In particular, it needs to be established what messages are spread on social media platforms and under what conditions, and whether disinformation is shared more widely than objective reporting. Likewise, future research should consider investigating the effects of disinformation spread by RT and Sputnik on social media platforms.

What’s your theory? That he’s an America hating American who loves Russia, hates facts and has made it his life mission to emulate Russian propaganda, but is still too ashamed of it to take a stance on whether he’s pro-Russian or not? And that sounds probable to you…?
Oh hello mr Russian-pretending-to-be-American.
You’ve never answered why you pretend to be American while at the same time clearly supporting Russia and spreading Russian propaganda.
Are you such a weak-willed American you’ve bought into Russian propaganda?
Isn’t it annoying when you can’t just delete my comment and ban me like you alway do, mr Pro-Russian?
(This guys has said things like “reality has a well known Russian propaganda bias”.)
He’s pro-Russian, and will never answer that particular question despite being ready to lie about everything else, because he knows even a clear lie of “I hate Putin” written by him in the context of him being American could be reason enough for him to accidentally fall out of a window. Because Russia is a shithole autocracy.
This guy never states shit, goes around spamming wannabe good looking lists of links of shit that’s incredibly easily shown to be utter shit, but because there’s so much, it’ll always just diverge from the actual point.
It’s got a name.
An outgrowth of Soviet propaganda techniques, the firehose of falsehood is a contemporary model for Russian propaganda under Russian President Vladimir Putin.

All you need to do to prove this is try to get him to answer whether he’s pro-Russian or not. Not a hard question, yet he just can’t manage answering it.
Were you old enough to order food before apps?
Yeah my point exactly.
But if this guy wasn’t concerned about washing it and thought to leave that to the charities idk. He was a hacker, not an accountant for a cartel, so can’t expect much.
But yeah giving away billions of stolen money would be a lot harder than some in the thread seem to think it is. I mean, technically you can give it via crypto but is it then of use is an other question
