His daughter was unfazed by her account, this kind of unhinged shit was a common occurrence for them. I bet there is a lot of other weird stories like that.

In this case it's not "never", I don't use twitter and saw this news on Lemmy this morning.

What do you use? I rooted my phone precisely for this, but google pay and my bank still see I'm not on the stock ROM : (

They have to call, mail or physically go to the bank I guess.

Unfortunately it will, if I want to add a new transfer recipient or make a payment on a 3D secure website, the app is mandatory, even on desktop.

Sadly most French banks use a custom validation process which requires you to use their app to validate a transaction. And my main bank's app has warned me that it will "soon" stop working on custom ROMs...

Yeah but banking apps are starting to check integritynet, and (in France, at least) they're pretty much mandatory to do anything useful with your bank account/credit card online... I think Uber does too, I boycott them but others might follow suit...

Currently running lineageos, but I think I'll just give up and go for a Pixel for my next phone... Sucks to let google win but I like to do useful things with my phone...

They cut the quote too soon. He actually argued that mass killing was more humane as the alternative was starvation, because try as they might, the poor Nazis weren't able to feed their prisoners. So they decided to mercy-gas them instead.

Same as Windows and MacOS, really. You can follow best practices and conventions, or just install your software wherever you want.

I mean US did it, twice, on civilians, no sanctions

There are of course a lot of reasons why these two situations can't really compare, but an obvious and major difference is that only the US had nukes at the time, so no MAD.

I guess it could, as we have to take meta's word for it, and a quick google search hasn't turned up any independent security audit.

Not sure about US companies, but I've never seen an AC plug on European and Asian companies' airplanes. They do have USB ports but they're underpowered (barely enough to keep my battery at the same level while playing music on BT headphones) or straight up don't work. Ask a flight attendant in the latter case, they'll reboot your screen which might fix the issue.
