Linux users, despite being a very important part of their user base, have zero official tools for Proton Drive syncing.
I really don’t think that can be considered as “user hostile”. It’s not like they had it and took it away later. A con? Sure.
You just skipped over half of that point where they mention there was a way of using it in Linux, but they took it away
Well then why aren’t they doing so now? They’re already maintaining their own forks of android, should be pretty trivial to do.
I think that was mainly solved (here in the EU at least) by requiring a choice of search engine when first opening a browser.
In the 1 September update they state they found that web client and a mobile client as well, but not the API (I guess) containing the system prompt and the actual routing to the models.
You don’t, there’s privacy respecting ways of delivering notifications in android.
Also, a 24/7 connection to a server isn’t nearly as bad as you might think.
The connection isn’t active the whole time, it only uses any significant amount of battery if there’s actually data being sent or received. You likely already have quite a few of them anyway, how do you think systems normally listen for push notifications?
Besides all that, I read in other comments that the privacy issue was the device id firebase needs. Obviously apple also needs some kind of device id, otherwise how do they know where the notifications are going?
Did some searching, yup apple also needs a unique identifier:
When it’s time to send a notification, you generate a request that contains the notification data and a unique identifier for the user’s device.
From https://developer.apple.com/documentation/usernotifications/setting-up-a-remote-notification-server
That doesn’t have anything to do with how you install the app.
You could probably do it with http if the server properly supports the content range headers.
uh, no? on smartphones, yes, but not on computers.
That’s not true. Most operating systems at least have filesystem permissions, and on a lot of Linux distros you additionally get AppArmor or PolKit to further restrict what files a program can read/write.
Actually I think I remember watching a technology connections video about how card in the US can use the headlights as a turn signal, or something like that. I don’t think that’s allowed in Europe or the EU or whatever.
I’m pretty sure most cars have a turn signal near the headlights, and one on the mirror or on the side for that use case, no?
Sure, but I’m not paying for every byte sent overy network, while I am paying for every kWh I use.
That’s all beside the point though, this is just a fun diy project so who cares really.
In the Netherlands there’s a few ISPs offering 4Gb and one even 8Gb iirc. Personally can’t really think of a use case for that though.
Lmao one of the pages on their website lists a few events at 123 Legal Ave, Suite 100, City, State, 12345. I’m starting to get the feeling these people don’t take their job very seriously.
The “divorce” link just leads to “divorce”. Not “https://shittysite/divorce“. Just,” divorce".
Hell yeah I used to love tux paint as a kid
Seems to me they responded to
I hope other technology companies try to aim for something similar
Which, according to them, they are.
It’s indeed not enforced here, but on top of that the police would really like to know that you have cameras filming public space.
Not so they can do something about it, but so they know they can come to you to ask for footage if something happens.
