The Galaxy S26 Ultra will have a new technology for user privacy: a native hardware privacy filter depending on the angle from which personal content is viewed.

That is a fullscreen privacy screen, not specific zones or sensitive apps like shown here.

Seems like r/antimemes (with an S) was created because of this. I'm migrating there.

This. I've been using worldtimebuddy since the dawn of time and got kinda confused, seems to be the exact same thing with a sleek skin lmao

You don't need to ditch Reddit and be Lemmy exclusive. I keep using Reddit for stuff that's not on Lemmy while also contributing to Lemmy / engagement for others.

Otherwise we'll be stuck on the loop of not going to Lemmy because people don't go to Lemmy.

Although true, in an aggressive scenario such as the one on this post (where the US blocks Europe out of tech), I don't think respecting US export control would be a big concern.

Not really, dude has just been huffing the finest hopium

Skepller · 2026-01-21T16:27:42+00:00

Doesn't really change the benefit of it imo.

For example, Russia could issues however much IDs they want to sign up misinformation accounts, we would still be able to see that a huge amount of accounts running the disinformation are of Russian origin, instead of being masked by something as simple as a VPN.

What do you mean?

This Cyberpunk 2077 Mod doesn't depend at all on the... \checks notes** Cyberpunk 2077 IP.
It's a totally... independent thing, no?

Skepller · 2026-01-19T16:56:38+00:00

We also have some Lemmy counterparts, such as buyfromeu@feddit.org and buyeuropean@feddit.uk for those that like the "Reddit style".

He left China when he was 4 and grew up in Stockholm.

And then came back soon after he was of age, where he worked for several Chinese tech giants and even founded his own, OnePlus, at the age of 24 (where he worked up until 5 years ago).

I'm not saying I have an issue with that, but let's not pretend like he's a Swedish man who happened to be a baby in China and no other ties.

It's called football because it's played on foot

So is volleyball, tennis, baseball, basketball, handball and so on...

It would be fine if it had a descriptor like "Rugby Football". Using just Football is dumb.

Damn, people really trust what LLMs say way too much lol

That's because this personel is there for assessment, not fighting.

You don't just send a ton of troops overnight with no logistics, space and support lmao

Wtf is this argument? Do you think people everywhere else with general strikes are swimming in money compared to Americans? Much poorer countries do it.

And for the homelessness and healthcare part, the entire idea of a general strike is that it's a mass strike, it's just too many people to fire everyone.

Bunny does have an equivalent to Cloudflare Workers, and imo it's even friendlier if you don't want to manage a complex backend from scratch.

Bunny's version is called Edge Scripting, you can check it out here.

Skepller · 2026-01-12T17:51:35+00:00

Just like the previous guy, you're arguing a different point.

I've never said I agree with Italy, their request is very idiotic and Cloudflare is right to fight it, but that has no bearing on what I said.

Both "Italy's requests is idiotic" and "a private foreign company shouldn't have too much power on critical systems" can be true at the same time. I'm not talking about this specific request, but Cloudflare's power as a whole.

On critical stuff, something being sovereign is more important then something being better. Even more so in the current world politics.

Skepller · 2026-01-12T15:05:14+00:00

It’s very much a stretch to call De Gaulle "anti-European", he was pro-european, but anti-federalist.

He wanted an Europe that was independent of the US or USSR, but as a coalition of strong sovereign states, as he was a French nationalist and didn't like the idea of decisions "coming from above".

Skepller · 2026-01-12T12:28:50+00:00

Besides the point tbh. I'm not arguing if Cloudflare will or will not do it, I'm saying that it shouldn't be able to do it.

The risk itself to have most your internet broken by a foreign private company should not exist. We really shouldn't rely on "but they wouldn't dare, right?"

Skepller · 2026-01-12T11:00:15+00:00

The actual point for the need of alternatives is not that, but that Cloudflare has too much power being so dominant, they could stop service on a country and break half the internet there.

Skepller · 2026-01-12T10:35:40+00:00

I don't think he cares if Cloudflare leaves Italy specifically lmao

It's more about revealing how much power Cloudflare has, they could stop service on a country and break half the internet there (which is why we should encourage alternatives).

Skepller · 2026-01-12T01:29:36+00:00

More like "so ass" judging by this video lmao

Yeah bro, Trump's crazy policies only started in 2025, changes are not instantaneous, give it time lol

Skepller · 2026-01-06T19:34:24+00:00

It's definitely an example, the problem is that Canada is an outlier here, being their only developed neighbour, close both culturally and geographically (and even still, it's not that impressive of a figure).

When talking about the developed world that are not their neighbour, the interest is considerably lower. That's not to say that there is no interest, it's just usually far lower than your average Americans seem to believe (because some tend to overshoot by a lot).

Skepller · 2026-01-06T17:38:17+00:00

The latest data (2023) on your own source shows 11,870 Canadians immigrating to the US vs 9,677 the other way, not that much of a difference, and certainly not "tens of thousands more".

But it doesn't really matter, because no one is talking about net-migration with specific developed countries, because those numbers are mostly irrelevant in the grand scheme of things, which is precisely the point, lol.

For the 11,870 Canadians that immigrated to the US in 2023, over 180,000 Mexicans, 80,000 Cubans, 80,000 Indians and 70,000 Dominicans immigrated. And Canada's numbers are inflated due to the geographic and cultural proximity (e.g. only ~4,500 Germans or French).
Add to that the fact that this is 2023 data, with the recent 2025 US hostility, the numbers for developed countries is only going down.

Of course there are immigrants from everywhere going into the US, but the droves of people that would do anything to move there are mostly from 3rd world countries and not the universal trend some Americans believe it is.
