How is instagram spying on me?

    Just read most of the comments here and I feel nauseous about this.

    My job encourages instagram use.

    I think the only way around having our devices spy on our spoken face to face conversations is to have a mobile device with a removable battery. Who remembers the HTC EVO and all the phones like those? Anyone know of a good phone that offers the removable battery?

  • I don’t use Facebook much but when I do it’s because my gramma is sending me a private message. I refuse to download their other app. Please help?

    I have a recollection of some long threads about some companies discontinuing gaming content and members of Lemmy having strong feelings and evidence about all this. I have been trying to search these older threads up but I can't find them. Does anyone remember these conversations? What companies were involved? Games? How much data was basically disappeared?

    I always appreciate the memes that show up at Lemmy, but this meme reduces the amount of effort that also goes into earning some merit badges. I think it’s funny but kind of tone deaf.

    I don’t really know anything about grey Jay. I just know how to create my own archives of files and use them as I please. I’m not sure why I would need any kind of app to access my files — except for the player.

  • Decades ago my friends and I stole a car in Los Angeles and took a drive into the mountains just outside of LA. I was in high school and this was BEFORE all celular proliferation so we didn’t know where to go or what to do — we were shit thieves and one of us saw keys in a car and we jumped on it. Anyway — we ended up heading up a what I remember as a mountain road — and it couldn’t have been where Griffith park is or the Hollywood hills — likely, now that I think about it, we were so scared where headed east on the 210. We figured we wouldn’t get caught if we just took the car into the mountains and drove home in the morning. Kidsarefuckingstupid Anyway — the road we were on turned into a dirt road and we came around a bend and our headlight lit up two soldiers in full gear — helmets and automatic rifles so we stopped and they started screaming: TURN AROUND AND LEAVE!! Leave now!!! We left. And got close enough to home to ditch the car and walk. But this isn’t about our idiot joyride — this is about WTF soldiers. Can anyone connect these dots? What were the soldiers doing? (Also — I shared this because I MISS LA and I come to this community and find no post for a month! Shame on you! :-) but seriously — expates need your pics of parks etc.)

    What is the Lemmy instance that's focused on educational videos?

    I might also be thinking of a PeerTube instance. Focused on education. Does anyone remember the name? Thanks.

    Come on you tool lovers out there. Has anyone heard of the device I described on the subject line? Anything close?

    It is my hope that Privacy is the community for this. I think freedom to use browsers the way we intend is a privacy issue. We have likely all seen or heard that the “Select All” option has been removed from Safari — don’t hate me, I won’t be doing apple again. That said, manual SELECTING of text still exists. Here’s the privacy issue: When I SELECT a small amount of text, I am offered the COPY option. When I SELECT a few hundred words, even at Gutenberg, I’m given zero time to hit the copy button. Just now I shifted to Firefox and had zero problem doing what I needed to do. Could other interested folks confirm this SAFARI bug/irritant/annoyance? Here’s the page I was using: https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/766/pg766.txt In safari, check what happens if you try to copy five words vs. 300 words.
