No amount of whitewashing is going to fix that. Almost half of them in-fact celebrate it.

Looking Up an NYPD Officer’s Discipline Record? Many Are There One Day, Gone the Next.
  • You don’t have to find a way to shoehorn Biden, Democrats, and Israel into every topic just to further your agenda. It’s slimy, and we all see it.

    Your attempt to deflect the limelight away from Biden and administration is what's most slimy and I've seen this cult like behavior elsewhere as well (Election campaign push?).

    Keep kissing that ass to paint him as a good person, we all see through it.

    And yes, Fuck Trump too, if you were deciding to try and deflect using the textbook deflection tactic.

  • Proton Mail Discloses User Data Leading to Arrest in Spain
  • Upon receiving the recovery email from Proton Mail, Spanish authorities further requested Apple to provide additional details linked to that email, leading to the identification of the individual.

    I like how no ones talking about how Apple (the one its fanboys say is most privacy centric company) was the one that helped identity the individual.

  • Google Play Store listing apps installed from F-Droid that it cannot update

    Essentially the apps have same package name but different signatures and the app store that installed it should be the only one to recognize and update it.

    But Google is likely trying this dark pattern to sway people away from F-Droid or alt stores by making users uninstall these apps and install it from the Google Play Store.

    It's been going on for a while and is annoying af.

    US vetoes UN resolution calling for Gaza ceasefire
  • UN is the change.org of the real world. The idea is great but it only works on extremely rare cases. I know its purpose is to stop next world war but it should stop trying to seem like a platform for discussion as there is no discussion to be had when you give someone power to veto any resolution.

  • Anyone getting updates from lemmit.online?

    Lemmit online is a lemmy instance that mirrors content from some subs from reddit. It seems to be federated and not blocked but when you subscribe to any of its community, you don't get any new posts in your feed. Any clue about why?

    Firefox is giving Android users a sneak peek at its open extensions
  • They should add the ability to switch the "Home" button to Addons button for quick access. I don't remember if I ever used that home button, but I'm constantly using the menu button, going to addons, then the add-on itself. It would make it much easier since extensions are one of the main highlights of Firefox Android.
