It looks like Beeper has purchased the software from the person who developed this, but his GitHub repo for it is still up.

He has also created a way to permanently side load apps on iPhone without jailbreaking. I imagine Apple will be working on both of these "problems".

It was just reinstated, but probably just after he posted this

Same with H264. I still have trouble getting H265 videos to play on all devices, so it's easier to stay with 264.

I expect this post in a couple days: "How do I remove a paper towel that is frozen to my bottle of wine?"

She also gave a lot of attention to vaccine skepticism by making Jenny McCarthy seem like a medical expert on Autism.

I went to YouTubeTV earlier this year and it's definitely cheaper than RCN, which recently bought WOW. I have Comcast as a choice but they aren't better. The base rate for RCN that they advertise is $59, but they add four different fees that you don't see until your first bill: Sports Surcharge, Broadcast TV surcharge, franchise fees, and Entertainment Networks Surcharge. After those add-ons it was $115, so I'm saving money because the YouTubeTV price is actually advertised properly, without these ridiculous add ons.

Isn't it typical for a lawyer to be held in contempt for not following court rules? Will there be contempt proceedings near the end of the trial?

Just reading the text on the X site has some interesting contradictions, such as:

Benefits: Benefit from increased trust from other users who will see your ID verification label when they hover over your blue check mark.

More benefits to come: Speed up the process of obtaining a blue check mark through a simplified review process.

Translation: "You can trust us more because we will take more shortcuts in verifying people."

Beeper has been working in this space for awhile - there's no way they would publish an app with a copyright violation. I assume they have a workaround for that aspect.

If I understand correctly, someone other than your ISP could see the name of the website, since it isn't encrypted. I think it would bounce through several servers that could possibly read the data.

Quick Change. It's full of big stars (Bill Murray, Randy Quaid, Geena Davis, Jason Roberts) but I never hear people talk about it. I find it pretty funny.

They probably threaten some space telescopes, too. The Starlink satellites are a little higher than Hubble. I would imagine they might take up a decent amount of field of view to Hubble, by being closer.

I would think that an IP address tells you the domain name by doing a simple DNS lookup.

Is it encrypted while in transit between servers?

Interesting. I just checked and found the information. It sounds like they want to rebuild the whole app and just add one service at a time. They are starting with just iMessage.

Edit: I wonder how long this will last. They aren't using a Mac to log you into your iCloud account with this. They have found a workaround.

"This is now possible because the iMessage protocol and encryption have been reverse engineered by jjtech, a security researcher."

Edit 2: I'm really curious about this. The researcher has some Python that can run anywhere and let you send iMessages. It seems like something the Apple would shutdown, but, on the other hand, I wouldn't expect Beeper to introduce an app that might get disabled.

I wonder what he means that Biden is under investing on military spending towards China? Is there some defense spending bill that he has vetoed?

I can. I just was more interested in learning about a new package manager, rather than the main topic of the post.

If I were to use this, would I use a Spotify login/password with it? I'm not clear if this app allows you to save playlists and favorites, etc.

I can't find any picture of what Trump "truthed". Did he add any commentary with this article link he posted?

I expect some apps to eventually allow a user to merge like-named communities into a single "virtual" community. The Connect app already moved towards this by presenting your subscriptions grouped by community named, rather than instance. So I see all my "technology" communities listed next to each other, for example.

I think I'm saving about $500 per year, so the ad isn't completely accurate. I think they based it on the savings from before they raised the rate to $73.

The article says they are powering it using dedicated transmitters:

"each floor would have one or two RF (radio frequency) power transmitters to power up all switches inside the house."

It's confusing because earlier they talk about energy harvesting, which implies "free". But then they talk about how you will need to run these transmitters, which certainly isn't free.

I've never heard of AtlasOS until this comment. I read the documentation and it's interesting that they need you to install it using a fresh Windows ISO. I wonder what they are doing that can't be accomplished on an existing Windows installation with a bunch of Powershell scripts?

I wouldn't call it "harvesting" if you have operate power transmitters on each floor of the house. "Energy harvesting" usually means you are using something that is already present in the environment.

"each floor would have one or two RF (radio frequency) power transmitters to powe r up all switches inside the house."

I've been using it for many years, but only from my home. Is there any danger of getting flagged if I login to the RD website from my phone (to add something), but someone at my home is streaming from my home IP?

If people start choosing their flights based on aircraft type, it seems like the airline could just list all flights as the "good" aircraft and then automatically change it to the "bad" aircraft close to the departure date.

I'm confused about this article because I have Beeper, but they make this statement:

"Beeper Mini is a new app from the folks behind Beeper, a unified chatting and inbox app that brings together the best chat apps under one roof."

I haven't heard about a mini version.

TOTP isn't offered by most of my financial sites, or Apple. It's annoying.

Are people expecting a better response to this situation from Trump? I don't see how people can expect him to be the better choice for most topics. Abstaining a vote for Biden in November is basically the same as voting for Trump

Is there a way to sync 2FAS between devices and browsers? I tried using it but couldn't get things to sync. I often have instances where I don't have access to my phone, so I need something browser based.

It talks about installing with nix package manager. I've never heard of this one. Can anyone comment on how well nix would work foru Ubuntu installations? It sounds like it installs some daemon, which I haven't heard before from a package manager.

I wonder why SmartTube doesn't work on phones and tablets? I've looked into ReVanced but I can't figure out the whole process. SmartTube is just an apk.

The voters are being blackmailed by Biden? I'm not following the argument.
