I was in this situation once. Not even cellphones worked – for calling people. We were lucky we had electricity, heat, and running water.
I think the only “real” competition was hughes.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Are there any payment aggregators (Like Paypal for instance) that prioritize user privacy?English
3·2 days agoI respect that. You should also know you don’t have to use it as an app you can also just use their website.
I don’t think they’re a noble company or anything. It just seems worth it to me for the time being.

2·2 days agoWhat is this? EDIT: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Know_your_customer
Know your customer or know your client (KYC)[1][2] laws, regulations and guidelines in financial services require regulated businesses and professionals to verify the identity, suitability, and risks involved with maintaining a business relationship with a customer. These procedures fit within the broader scope of anti-money laundering (AML) and counter terrorism financing (CTF) regulations.
This makes sense re: my intuitive understanding that it protects you from giving your information to other businesses, but it won’t protect you from the police if the police subpoena privacy.com and ask them about you specifically.
Privacy.com is still currently on the point of the enshittification curve where they are making a good free service for customers, but I don’t doubt that once they have enough people locked in, they’ll make the service worse by pivoting first to helping their advertisers and then to helping themselves and their financial backers at the expense of everyone else.
I would just like to point out this is my biggest gripe with the movie.
Josh Brolin didn’t sacrifice the thing he most cared about. What he most cared about was his plan to kill half the universe. That’s what he should have sacrificed to get the wishstone. Instead, he iced a perfectly innocent person that wasn’t even hard for him to do.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Whats a good alternative to Instagram?English
1·3 days agoFor me it’s more like i see old friends that I’ve moved away from, but if they have a wedding or other life event, i could see it on IG, along with daily stuff from other old friends.
I haven’t been on ig for years though. I could dance, if i wanted to. I could leave my friends behind!
Before Chris Penn starred in Beethoven’s 2nd (1993), he had a part in Reservoir Dogs (1992).
Holy shit that’s the same guy???
I guess the fact that it is 2 makes it also 1 for me, but maybe that’s just how my adhd works.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•I say this as an ex-coder, but is it possible to ask for a paper ballot instead of using the stupid machines when voting?English
4·6 days agoWhere i voted, you can use a computer to “mark” your ballot. It then prints it out, with your selections visible. You thwn take it to another computer, and insert it inro a slot that scans the ballot. So even with the computer voting, there was a paper trail in this instance.



I’m trying to picture how this sounds. If it is “zed”, does it just not rhyme with T-U-V ?
