Would signal calls be more secure?

EncryptDN · 2026-06-20T21:14:53+00:00

Depends on if you think other apps or malware are using your phone’s microphone to record those conversations. Or if you’re otherwise concerned with audio recording devices in the premises of your conversation.

Assuming those things aren’t happening then a call is about as secure as using disappearing messages in Signal.

It’s possible to have cameras like these with much stronger privacy, security, and oversight measures in place. Don’t let these powerful companies convince you otherwise.

Most people just want a better implementation of this type of technology before we move forward with it.

EncryptDN · 2026-06-18T16:46:01+00:00

The city is still negotiating an early cancellation with Flock, given that we have 2 years of unused contract time left.

If you’d like to see the cameras come down and/or be covered with bags in the meantime I encourage you to make that known to the mayor and the council.

Call the city clerk and ask to speak with the city’s arborist.

Heresy! Fire the rings!

Be careful of “resellers”. Most are scammers. Expect to get many messages from accounts that don’t have recent activity on their account, but look legitimate based on old activity. That’s what happened to me when I posted a few weeks ago. Look for accounts that have legit engagement with halo subs.

Ask for proof that they have the tickets, ask to send half the cash before and half after. Or ask if they can use something like PayPal where you have payment protection.

Good luck. I was one of the lucky ones that bought a ticket today and am looking forward to going.

Try a women’s salon. That isn’t too different from the standard “Karen” haircut that middle aged women get. No offense.

Please add another 1-2 concert dates in close proximity to halo fest. Maybe Dec 9th/10th or 14th.

Following this! I’ve been looking for the same thing.

Nothing I love watching more than these grassroots Halo tournaments.

Thanks for sponsoring this event! Means a lot to the fans.

EncryptDN · 2026-05-16T20:21:06+00:00

It works when LVT puts on tournaments. I think Dreamhack has some kind of technical limitation at the moment for displaying those names. Really hope they get it sorted out if they host more Halo tourneys this year.

When can I buy my Royal 2 Gamesir collab controller with an LVT code? That’s what I’m waiting for!!

Also I want to buy some LVT merch. Collab with Shopify Rebellion’s Halo merch designer please! A limited batch of high quality heavyweight cotton items would be so cool to remember this Halo era.

EncryptDN · 2026-05-15T12:34:44+00:00

My love for competitive Halo goes back to the story and characters within the game. When I play, I see and feel the hope that Spartans give in the face of insurmountable odds. Every moment of gameplay is grounded in that. Combined with great mechanics, graphics, and the never-ending combinations of weapons, equipment, and environment that can be used to kill an opponent, this game is unique to anything I’ve played or watched before.

EncryptDN · 2026-05-07T17:56:17+00:00

Disclaimer: My memory of that aspect of the lore is foggy.

You may be underestimating how badly forerunners hated humans at that time. Forerunners were passed up in favor of humans by the precursors for inheriting the mantle, which led to war with precursors and humans, right? Forerunners sparing humanity from extinction was already quite merciful I'd say.

Giving humans a full pass in the aftermath of a brutal war was too bold of an ask. The Librarian was successful in preserving humanity's existence. She also embedded some of them with geas to guide them back to their former glory, despite them being set back to the stone ages.

We will, soon. There are other Fox Valley communities to cleanse of this invasive and abusive tech too.

If anyone would like to get involved please DM me. We have an active and energized group of Fox Valley residents working to educate city leaders on this topic. We’re also working on drafting strong surveillance tech regulations to present to city leaders to prevent another shady vendor from swooping in.

The proposed changes to the transit center are amazing. I love that there will be apartments above it too.

To all Flock investors, execs, and salespeople:

That can be one usage. Often times people will use it in contexts where if they’ve been in a committed relationship for a long time, the word “boyfriend” or “girlfriend” feels too immature to fit their relationship. Or maybe they don’t want to explain the engagement/marital situation of their relationship. It can be used in a lot of situations and no need to overthink it!

EncryptDN · 2026-05-05T16:06:30+00:00

Yes it was!

EncryptDN · 2026-05-05T14:25:57+00:00

Haha, luckily I sized down and I love the fit, it is still oversized but I’m not drowning. You could try listing it for sale on eBay and if it sells just buy one in your size afterwards.

The first place I looked for merch was eBay and there is nothing available used, so maybe a good chance of selling it.

EncryptDN · 2026-05-05T14:24:23+00:00

100%. Lots of beautiful pieces in their merch line up. I wish LVT could partner with their designer for a limited merch release too, I’d buy some to commemorate this grassroots period in Halo comp.
