I know I can do the web for basics stuff, but I need the apps to make payment with qr-codes.

Although, maybe the banks website could word reasonably well in a browser. But, the mobile wallet apps would be a problem I bet.

I agree, Android phones will not have a chance at being successful unless it has a translation layer to run Android apps.

I know things like that exist, but I don’t think it’s anywhere close to having a high compatibility.

I wish you luck on this. I also would like to learn more about this, but it’s not a priority for me. I just got a cheap vps and will use that for testing 😂

Just get a vpn to be safe. They are so cheap. I live in a country where no one cares about it, but I still use a vpn to be safe.

Also consider that people might not care now, but in the future, the rules might change and there might be a record that you torrented.

Haha! I just showed my wife the headline and picture and said a similar thing.

That’s a pain, I just use the second computer for the one app as I need to be at my desk to use it anyway. My laptop is Linux as I do everything else on it.

I use linux for everything except for one critical app that does not yet work on linux outside of a virtual machine. But, my computer is not powerful enough to run it in a virtual machine.

There are also no alternatives to it either. So, I have a second computer to use windows for just that, but the day it works on linux is the day I say bye to windows forever.

Well I don’t teach art so… and they don’t even know

It’s a good use for me. I work with children and the things I’ve “created” have been significantly better thanks to mid-journey.

Before that it was just generic clip art, now I can make really beautifully themed stuff that was both out of my skill range and price range.

The artists, would never get money from me since I’m not rich enough to afford it but the children benefit.

The big problem is that the telecoms still charge by the minute to call a landline so most businesses have a Facebook page and use messenger as their primary form of contact.

I’m literally going to a vet now and they had messenger, WhatsApp or telegram as their contact method

I don’t think that’s the case, I just think it is old people not know how to use technology.

Additionally, all these people in power are using signal, how is that not a loud endorsement that everyone should be on it.

Sadly, my contact list remains mostly on WhatsApp and Facebook messenger only.

I had to enroll users in teams. Doing so was confusing and 1 user would never get the invite. I ended up ditching it after about a month.

For the US, my understanding is that citizens can refuse, but if you do they may hold you for some time.

Non-citizens may be denied entry if they refuse to hand over their device.

It’s online corps offload computers but there will be a delay and many will just have the extended windows 10 supports. So I’d give it another year.

As someone starting a small business, it has helped tremendously. I use a lot of image generation.

If that didn’t exist, I’d either has to use crappy looking clip art or pay a designer which I literally can’t afford.

Now my projects actually look good. It makes my first projects look like a highschooler did them last minute.

There are many other uses, but I rely on it daily. My business can exist without it, but the quality of my product is significantly better and the cost to create it is much lower.

Hopefully it can just run off wall power while at home. It would suck to change in the middle of each night.

What is the reddit drama this time?

Wait! This is a thing? I got a message from her a few days ago. I never heard of her before. What’s the story?

With tariffs and sanctions, it has become clear that open standards which can’t be controlled by governments are what is needed.

With what’s been happening over the past few years, there will be a lot of interested in this. Recently, I’ve seen lots of news about it, but that could just be the algorithm.
