Is it more complicated to achieve than in other e2ee messengers? Yes, thus saying it is complicated is justified.
- Comment on Signal messenger blocked in Russia, says Roskomnadzor 5 weeks ago:

- Comment on Google's AI-powered search summaries use 10x more energy than a standard Google search | The Hidden Environmental Impact of AI 2 months ago:
I wonder what the power consumption of getting to the information in the summary is as a whole when using a regular search, clicking on multiple links, finding the right information and extracting the relevant parts. Including the expenditures of energy by the human performing the task and everything that surrounds the activity.
There are real concerns surrounding AI, I wonder if this is truly one of them or if it’s just poorly researched ragebait.

Last I checked you cannot sub from within the Netflix app.
- Comment on Apple’s rejection of Hey calendar app revives an old feud 8 months ago:
That’s not quite correct. At least for Netflix I know that you can browse, add to watchlist etc. without a sub. Just need an account. So you can do something, just not watch anything.
