Why? People expect SMS to be free these days, it’s only added costs for the carrier to implement RCS. That’s the problem.

I’m going to bet their fight against surveillance never goes beyond internet criticism of other people’s fight against surveillance.

How about you share the strategies you have executed at council meetings to achieve this goal? And you can share what the solution to the problem looked like in the end.

That way we can all try to emulate your success.

So what’s the strategy besides just being upset on the internet?

The reason the fight against Flock is working is because people have something tangible to go to council meetings and target.

Even with that it took several years to get our community to turn against Flock and get our village to cancel their contract and have the cameras removed. Trumps goons actually ended up succeeding where we couldn’t.

If you’re going to tell the people actually getting shit done they’re doing it wrong you should offer more than just criticism.

This might be a good place for you to itemize the other surveillance tools people should be talking to their local elected officials about.

And the lemmy devs are tankies.

Yeah, the reality is the only way is was going to happen was if someone like Google made it happen. RCS was dying on the vine for many years. The carriers were never going to implement it.

Their post does not say but I’m sure the current economy is no small factor. Businesses are tightening belts because things are only expected to get worse. Sponsorship of a dwindling Linux distribution is an easy cut to justify.

There’s needs to be another button with food.

The manager sucked. There’s a lot of solutions to this issue but cross training and proper backup preparation are the most ideal ones.

Pants Shitler

You guessed wrong. There are now two doors in front of you, one leads to hell. Choose wisely.

I’m talking about the “controls” that people claim make capitalism work.

Capitalism can’t function when the competition has to spend 5 years building a multi billion dollar chip fab.

This was a federal rule, one guess who undid it.

If it was bots they’d have to shut the whole site down.

Why would propaganda be paywalled?

I can happily bake you a cake. Doesn’t mean you’ll want to eat it.

A lot of kids only have access to school devices. Having your own laptop, phone, or tablet as a child is a privileged position.
