I recently watched the movie Running Man, and your quote reminded me that in the movie they have court appointed agents instead of attorneys, lol.

Get an n100 mini PC, I bought one with 12 GB of ram and a 512 GB SSD for about $170.

For me Gborad's best feature is the speech to text function, I find it to be very accurate. Since I've started using it, I barely type anything at all.

If you like the classic C&C games, check out OpenRA

https://www.openra.net/

It's an open source project that recreates and modernizes classic real time strategy games, like Red Alert, Command & Conquer, and Dune 2000.

From what I understand, the attackers steal your number by gaining access to your phone carrier account.

They can gain access to your account either by finding your info in a data breach, or by phishing the account details from you.

That's why they say that you need to setup a strong password with 2FA for your phone carrier account to protect yourself from this kind of attack.

They could set up their own fully federated Lemmy instance and scrape themselves.

They don't need a deal with Lemmy.

It's an open platform, they can just scrape all the data.

Also the shitstorm it would cause, when you can't access an account that you used Gmail to sign up.

The article I read said that Google will be paying 60 million dollars per year, so that still leaves them 30 million in the red considering the 90 million net loss of 2023.
