n3dm··on FBI Extracted Deleted Signal Messages Saved in iPhone Notification Database
Not if you want it to randomly lose its connection to signals servers and then fail to backup so you lose the ability to use Molly randomly when you least expect it and be completely dead in the water when you want to transfer your messages or reinstall it.
n3dm··on Microsoft 365 now tracks you in real time?
What is your opinion about installing M$ Authenticator or any other mfa software?
n3dm··on Molly: An Improved Signal App
I've used Molly for over a year. Overnight it lost the device registration and will not contact the servers to re-register. The backup feature also does not work which left me dead in the water for several days with no fix. I switched back to signal and had to start a new database. It was a disaster. YMMV
n3dm··on How the Internet Left 4chan Behind
>School shootings have been planned and broadcast on the decentralized chat platform Discord.

Discord? Decentralized?

The author is on something else.

n3dm··on Tesla reportedly drops plan to build $25,000 EV
Wasn't the model 3 supposed to be $30k? Why would they only make another vehicle only 5k less than the other one?
n3dm··on The failure of self-checkout technology
I have. This was before I realized it was in their cardmember agreement. The woman grabbed my cart and held onto it, preventing me from leaving with my belongings until I conjured a receipt.
n3dm··on Ask HN: What was the outcome of Reddit blackout?
As if the quality was ever high? Nah, man.
n3dm··on The $55M saga of a Netflix series nobody will ever see
Funny because I'm using Spotify paid and I'm getting closer and closer to cancelling that with all the bugs and advertising. Using a web player the music just mites itself for 10 seconds at a time, skips tracks on its own. Pauses. The mobile app hits you with full screen ads and big banner ads at the top that you can't disable. It's the most annoying service I use for streaming.
n3dm··on Get Offended More (2020)
>To get offended is to have a strong aversion to something.

No it is not. The actual definition:

>cause to feel upset, annoyed or resentful

Low quality article.

n3dm··on Starlink satellites are 'leaking' signals that interfere with radio telescopes
This sucks. More false positives to pick up when driving around town.
n3dm··on Ask HN: What companies have blown you away with their customer support?
Really... I just had the worst experience just trying to limit my sharing since my employer signed me up to a retirement account with them. No automatic prompt, had to be forwarded around and finally to a human that had to verify several things and information for me just to limit my sharing. The first call I got stuck with the phone robot and it wouldn't accept any input. The second call was 18 minutes to just get that done.
n3dm··on A group of open source Android apps without ads and unnecessary permissions
I have updated mine from F-Droid and they have removed features that I use. I do not trust the updates and won't update to the newer versions.
n3dm··on Tell HN: Your Android carrier can remotely turn settings on
I have O*. How do I disable it?
n3dm··on Want to live in a van down by the river? Ford has a new vehicle for that
This is ridiculous, I have met several people living full time in them and not any of them do this and spend time in hotels. If anything at all they have a home base and will do domestic things at home between trips, but they all use laundromats and public showers, etc in between.
n3dm··on Ask HN: Custom domain email for professionals?
Seconding this. They have been top tier for it's primary use, hosting a professional email on my domain. Secondarily hosting the website itself is good too. Just doesn't have PHP/mysql or whatnot. Which is fine for a static page.
n3dm··on Ask HN: What product have you bought in the past year that you love?
Headlamp. Helps immensely when working on really anything at home and especially outdoor activities. I just ordered a Fenix branded one as I've heard good things and they look like they are made well.
n3dm··on Discord is a black hole for information
Not really, people despise it for other reasons. I.e. how bloated and sketchy their privacy practices are and just how invasive it is.
n3dm··on Valve’s Steam Deck wows reviewers: ‘The most innovative gaming PC in 20 years’
Literally everything you pointed out is wrong. It has the best battery life out of its competitors, it's less than half their prices, and its cooling is not a problem whatsoever. This has to be bait.
n3dm··on The Nintendo Switch has now outsold the Wii
>I can't support the switch >Bought a switch

Bro, what?

n3dm··on LastPass users warned their master passwords are compromised
They currently have disabled deletion of accounts. Everyone is getting a "A" error when trying to do so.
n3dm··on DIY Off-Grid Solar Power
Not sure if this is a troll post. Your lead acid comment is sImPlY iNcOrReCt, and you clearly don't know the owner of the website as he is a dude who runs his YouTube channel in a very transparent way.
n3dm··on Antikythera Mechanism: An ancient 'computer' that 'shouldn't exist' [video]
I was so intrigued by his videos, the story of the mechanism, that I went and saw the actual remains of it when I was overseas and in Athens. Chris tweeted a photo I took of it while I was there.
n3dm··on Microsoft’s Halo Infinite Went from Disaster to Triumph
They are not unique. Game feels dated, and is just not fun.
n3dm··on Doom on Windows Task Manager
That's because it isn't real.
n3dm··on Tesla displaces Mercedes-Benz as third-most-popular luxury brand in U.S.
Wow, it's as if they modeled the night view off a pinball machine. How offensive to the eyes. Bad example.
n3dm··on Apple: Ten Years Forward
Apple is the farthest from cool and actually is a borderline embarrassment if you own their products for the majority of my friends. I know we are the minority though.
n3dm··on Fisher Price's Iconic Toy Telephone Now Makes Phone Calls
I thought this was satire about Apple's new iPhone at first.
n3dm··on YouTube is banning anti-vaccine activists and blocking all anti-vaccine content
Sounds about right for reddit. It is anti free speech and anti education. If it sounds good but is made up and spreading lies, top of the posts you go.
n3dm··on [dead]
I don't get the title. Seems super cringey clickbaity.

Tl;dr: He asked Gates about the dinners he had with Epstein, Gates replies that he regrets the dinners. He asked again, and he says the same thing. That's it.

n3dm··on Google Chrome to remove detailed cookie and site data controls
For what it's worth, Firefox's official abbreviation is Fx, not FF.
