Im assuming dude was just drunk. Everything tastes good when drunk.

The article isnt very clear on this, but did they actually remove a critical feature from already sold products? Surely they can be sued for that?

Upselling people to their higher end CPUs that still support it

ElementX (main mobile matrix client) has live location sharing that works in group chats. Be aware that any location sharing system that loads map data (tiles) from a server automatically leaks your location to that server. The only way to solve this would be to have all the map tiles required stored offline but I’m not aware of any solution that does this. The simplest way to achieve maximum privacy is to just have something that automatically shares just the coordinates as a text message at a regular interval then you can open those coordinates in an offline map app.

As you can see here, the map tiles are loaded from “MapLibre” when using ElementX or rather its cool fork SchildiChatNext. That means MapLibre would technically know roughly where you are and have been. All apps that dont prompt you to download large chunks of map data in advance will load map tiles on demand and expose your location.

I think we all know why they dont close those doors no? Like its completely common knowledge at this point that delivery drivers get monitored down to the second and that if they dont save every bit of time possible they will get their pay cut or fired for not meeting quota. The technical solution to this is just an automatic door or curtain system that doesnt cost time to open/close but still keeps the hot air out. The moral solution is to just outlaw micro management and monitoring of delivery drivers.

Blame reddit :)

Its an even worse look for the US if shrapnel was enough to down the thing…

Iran will just build catapults to throw rocks at their helis from now on if thats enough lmao

A drone hitting a helicopter by chance is so astronomically unlikely its not even worth considering. If it was there then it was trying to hit the helicopter. Its not like a road where there is a shared path, its the fucking air where there are practically infinite paths for a drone to take.

Such cope. Of course a shahed drone flew right into a helicopter “by chance”…

I just downvote all AI related news that isnt politically meaningful. If its just yapping about specifics like this then its basically just an ad.

after hackers hijacked a user account and gained access to public chat rooms.

The platform wasnt breached, a single account was taken over…

But then they write this:

While French officials described the breach as limited in scope, an alleged hacker claimed to have obtained 73,467 user accounts, 643,459 messages, 876 chat rooms with message history, 59,386 media files totaling 13.51 GB, and references to documents marked “Diffusion Restreinte,” a French government restricted-distribution classification. Access was allegedly gained through social engineering of an account associated with Tchap’s education environment.

So who knows, but i doubt they were able to take over that many accounts. That would mean there was actually a technical failure of the underlying auth or matrix stack.

Would that change the list of sanctioned countries meaningfully?

Just cut off the programs internet acces and any updates to it, then they cant break it.

Same type of people that hype stuff like bluesky

Proton AG is a for profit company. Its controlled by the non profit Proton Foundation, but that has no real meaning. They are not required to run in a non profit way just because the decisions come from people on a non profit board. Its literally just a subscription based tech company, why are people simping so hard for them?

Bro its a capitalist corporation like any other, why would they have morals? Also being part of the Trump admin in the first place is enough of a problem.

Its not news to me that the people at proton have no morals but its still cringe every time shit like this happens.

Would be easy enough to print a custom case for this

More Streisand bait as usual lol
