Wow this is amazing! Thanks for sharing

but 30"+ monitors are extremely expensive :(

As far as I am aware, most of them aren’t directly transmitting data back to the manufacturer, but the data is stored on the car so if you ever have it worked on the dealership can just pull that shit without consent. I could be wrong though, maybe there are cars now that are doing that. I do know that a a lot of cars are taking the iPhone route of having “encrypted” parts, where if one is missing or replaced, the car just won’t work.

I see, that makes sense. I feel like I should have been able to figure that out but my puzzle solving skills aren’t the best lol

I believe it is making light of the fact that this is the direction we are heading in as a society. See the recent ford patent that listens to you while you are driving to serve ads over your stereo, the $800 child’s toy that will now be nothing but e-waste, BMW having you “subscribe” to your heated seats, or a more relavent to this conic example, the thousands if not millions of new “smart” devices that now require an app to perform functions that older technology could perform without needing a smartphone.

I wish. I really do. I want it so badly. My TV upgrades over the past 4 years have all been thrift store finds because I refuse to be forced to buy a device that WILL be obsolete one day.

Find me a new car in 2024 that doesnt store every GPS coordinate you’ve driven at for eternity. Genuinely, I’d like to see the non-garbage option because my '04 is getting old.

As long as they can convince their shareholders this will eventually make money and you buy into their eventual $30/flush subscription they won’t have to go out of business

genuine question from someone who isnt a cybersec major, wouldn’t E2EE chats and quantum resistant encrypted files negate most targeted government cyber attacks? Like I’m aware vulnerabilities will exist and you can take infrastructure offline, but they (they being any government) want the data of the opposing gov’t right? Doesn’t encryption make it stupidly easy to protect? Or are my encrypted backups & Signal chats not as safe as I thought they would be?

Thats actually surprising, when did they release that?

I mean theres a shit ton missing for discord parity. I agree that matrix needs more of these features, just wanted to share a couple things that already exist

If by linux version you mean completely broken electron web app I suppose youre right

Revolt also exists just btw. I dont use it just thought I’d mention it.

Cinny is a discord like matrix client :)

Thats fair. I use Fedora myself but Wine should be a lot easier than you remember lol. For me its been as simple as adding the repo and installing, then most of my Windows programs were plug and play :P I dont run any adobe or MS office but the alternatives are pretty good once you get acclimated to them

Call it whatever you want, I don’t feel spreading a negative narrative to someone who wants to leave an abusive ecosystem on the internet should be something that should be defended though.

Feel free to DM if you want 1 on 1 support. Ive been making the switch for almost 4 years now.
