(comment) No it’s not. The problem with videos like this is they give the impression that Apple isn’t as squeaky clean as it makes itself out to be. The reality is that NOTHING is as secure as people would li...

(comment) Thanks man. Keeping going is soon going to be put to the test with winter coming here in New Zealand. I’m motivated but the trick will be getting motivated when the weather sucks.

(comment) Yes, things are actually getting quite interesting as I am getting proved right. I need to work out a way that isn’t boring but does convey the data easily and clearly.

(comment) Thanks. It is good to be back.

(comment) Yes but you’re making the claim that mobile apps are privacy holes and insecure. However a web app is far less secure and it’s largely up to the web browser to provide the security. There is no su...

(comment) I kind of disagree. There’s no reason this does t happen on desktop apps either. In fact, in many cases it’s worse because there’s no checks and balances for systems where sideloading is rife. But...

(comment) While the BCH is nice it’s more the community that keeps me noising. If that ever fails then I might as well put all my resources into Twitter. I don’t see it happening though.

(comment) Chuck us a link to your profile and I’ll check you out.

(comment) NOT with “Sign in with Apple”. You’re correct with “Sign in with Google” and “Sign in with Facebook” or Twitter etc. Apple’s implementation however is vastly different: https://support.apple.com/...

(comment) People do know though. The Gospel of Judas was not written by Judas. How could it be when he's exploded all over the rocks? The earliest copies of this Gospel date 200 years AFTER the Bible was comp...

(comment) What is being proposed by Apple, Microsoft, Google, etc is NOT passwords stored on a device. It's actually a little more complicated and thus a lot more secure than that. So on a lot of websites y...

(comment) The problem is that this document was written centuries AFTER Judas died. In fact this was written AFTER the Bible canon was completed. All the gospels were written by the writer bearing the name of...

(comment) The title is actually a lyric in Weird Al Yankovic's "Amish Paradise". 🤣

(comment) The best thing Elon Musk can do with Twitter in the immediate future will be to remove the 164/280 character limit. Facebook was not really going anywhere until they removed the limits. Now people...

(comment) I gave up on LBRY/Odysee. The playback was appalling making it unusable. Now I’ll never return.

(comment) The only problem with Firefox and Brave (and maybe even Opera) is that they are built on Chromium which is Chrome and therefore controlled by Google. I genuinely am unsure of their security status a...

(comment) If it hasn't happened until I mentioned it I guess it wasn't going to happen. 🤣

(comment) I don’t see how you could have been in Hive for 4 years given that it has only been in existence for around 2. It was a hard fork of Steem.

(comment) I used to work in tech. I deliver snail mail now. But you're right, I do understand. Crypto is a great idea but I think what will happen is each individual government will replace cash with its own...

(comment) Everything you’ve written is what I e felt for the past year or so since I’ve been in crypto through blogging. ETH is a complete joke and Bitcoin is only marginally better. If you’re going to repl...

(comment) I left IT for this reason. I was working for a large IT firm but more and more it felt like I was nothing more than a cog in a slow decrepit machine. I hated the machine and when I asked for a pay r...

(comment) That's good to know. I'll start doing this from now on. BTW, do you use any app to write the content first before uploading? If so what?

@lowededwookie 2 years ago

(comment) I need to create a footer that links to all versions of my articles. At least to all my platforms I use. If I do, does this stop the plagiarism filters on platforms such as read.cash? I publish to...

(comment) I remember that game but never played it because I had an Amiga not a PC. I believe it’s similar but if I recall you actively flew the ship in that game. Am I right? This is more of a 3rd person poi...

(comment) No I did read it. I agree in principle with it. I just feel many articles I've read have only looked at China through the eyes of its dictatorship. Governments will try anything to retain power but...

@lowededwookie 2 years ago

(comment) Yeah but China isn't going to be the only one. America will follow and so will European countries. I don't think it's fair to rail on China when America and Europe have also trampled on people's rig...

(comment) I found this article quite interesting. https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2021/09/bitcoin-outlawed-in-china-as-country-bans-all-cryptocurrency-transactions/ I think this is a more reasonable...

(comment) Correct. Not only that, except for smartwatches, Apple has the lowest marketshare of the lot. That is not what one could ever call a monopoly.

(comment) I save all these into 1Password. That account requires a password, my licence key, and two factor identification to infiltrate. On device I use FaceID to unlock rather than a password. I have the...
