If my night shamalamalan directed it would be really good for like the first 40% and then everything after a certain point would feel incredibly paint-by-numbers

Sicilian ice cream sandwiches are a real thing and they are basically the best thing that’s ever happened to breakfast cuisine

Siesta is barely a thing in Italy any more unless you’re like 70+ and rural lol. But a brioche stuffed with ice-cream is the king of breakfasts what are you on about

Grab that cash with both hands and make a dash

You’ve got to be kidding me! 😡😡

Yeah tbh I just thought the --json option was pretty neat - I hadn’t known about it until fairly recently

Just one of the many perks of a stable monogamous relationship.

... -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"query": "{ users { name } }"}'? No. Why would you do that when you can just do ... --json '{"query": "{ users { name } }"}'. Yeah curl is awesome.

There’s another 10 possible, but if retaining symmetry and excluding the trivial T/F cases, these 6 are the ones to show I guess.

Why the fuck does BBC sounds have so much tracking???

A website set up by an unknown Dane

The website, called Fight Chat Control, was set up by Joachim, a 30-year-old software engineer living in Aalborg, Denmark.

Does anyone fucking proof-read anything any more? Or does unknown just mean ‘not famous’ these days? FML.

Right. Exactly my point? Phone numbers are not, like, the only way to identify a user. You have to know who they are. You posted an xkcd but failed to derive the conclusion that if a user is ‘compromised’ and they know who they’re talking to, then so are the people they’re talking to, regardless of whether phone numbers are involved. There’s no practical way to mitigate against that, it becomes a paranoid’s nightmare.

Ok but a messaging app that doesn’t let you know who a message is from is completely pointless? I feel like you’re not really addressing this issue here

No the most important thing a chat app needs to do is send messages between the intended recipients making them unavailable to anyone else. Signal does this. You’re worried about ppl receiving messages and knowing who they’re from. Generally knowing where a message is from is considered a feature – if you want anonymous broadcast, pick a different technology that’s geared towards that

If your threat model is deanonymisation of chat users via phone numbers after one chat is fully compromised, then yeah I guess you need to register the accounts with relatively ‘untracable’ phone numbers (ie unregistered or incorrectly registered burner sims), but that’s not my threat model. I’m more concerned about server-side broad-spectrum government surveillance than I am about targeted device seizures. And of course there are mitigations even with data access on device seizure, provided you’re unwilling to provide device passwords. But, like, if you’re cooperating to the point of providing passwords you’re probably sharing what you know about other users identities anyway, so it’s a very niche case this applies to.

Does it really? Iirc, you can determine: when the account was made, and when the last message was sent. This doesn’t sound ‘highly vulnerable’ to me… Doesn’t permit inspection of metadata e.g. contacts, so as vulnerabilities go it’s pretty weak sauce

What are you referring to? I’ve read many security breakdowns of signal and nobody who knows what they’re talking about has ever mentioned a back door

This is the way

Once your computer’s working to your satisfaction, pretty much all you’ll need to do is alias sudo packman -Syu and try to remember to run that every so often. The arch Linux wiki is second to none, and if you stick with the distro you should find it all feels very familiar in no time.
