No, power on/off is much worse for components than running due to the transients involved.

Windows is my daily driver and all my PCs run 24/7/52 unless they’re sleeping while I commute with them 🤷‍♂️

(I also run Linux, BSD, and macOS.)

True, but if server owner pulls the plug, all the content you have there is gone. They can also unilaterally delete your posts.

I guess my point is ownership isn’t as important as control.

SoundCloud vapes content and entire accounts all the time.

Lol no. That said, I’m on Threads too so whatevs.

Each instance has complete control over what is posted on it. The only way to truly own your posts is to set up your own instance and interact only with communities on it.

I doubt the president who lives on the internet & relies on it to connect with his superfans would disable it.

Yeah I was wondering how they were pulling that off without registering the phone number or iCloud account with Apple.

In any case, this also shows that iMessage can be spoofed.

Can anyone find any instance of interrogation in the body of the article?

I guess this explains Guyana’s Metal Shark orders.

Yep, Firefox Nightly is my daily driver. I use Edge Canary for sites that don’t work on Firefox, such as the Snapchat web client.

In many architectures in which certificates are used, a client with a valid certificate is a trusted client, so a certificate falling into the wrong hands is problematic.

Immolation is extremely painful.

Edge & Firefox exist.

Who actually turns off their computer?

On sites like Twitter or Mastodon, you mainly just have one feed based on the people or tags you follow

X has had lists, which allow multiple feeds for the same account, for a very long time now.

This doesn’t offer anything in terms of individual user personalization.

Reddit has the multireddit feature.

All of the above have to be set up manually, but Threads changes your feed in real time within the same session based on your interactions.

I’d have left too. This is insane.

My take exactly.
