lol dude I acknowledged it was too obscure and paid the due explanation. They’ll refund your ticket at the door.

A friend used to develop apps for Android and iOS platforms. WRT privacy lockdown and default permissions: Android < iOS < degoogled variants of android focusing specifically on privacy, security, or minimalist obscurity (e.g., graphene, lineage, etc). Retail Android is by far the worst choice for privacy, because Google’s primary motivation for contributing to the project was always instrumentation of a mobile platform for data harvesting and ad delivery.

Text overflow ellipses. Displaynames and usernames usually are retrieved at most once per load per user. Any other reference to the user will prefer an instance-specific UUID. The only real hard limit will be the result of their respective field types in the database.

The only one of these I’m familiar with was deep in the North woods of Wisconsin, but it really was the do-everything infrastructure of the town. IIRC also had propane, ice, fishing stuff, automotive basics, local community bulletin boards, a few old arcade cabinets, and although inside seemed bigger than outside it was only as big as a medium-sized deli in NY.

Damn. Poorly-funded auteurist filmmakers are my fetish. Maybe I’ll give this chat room a chance.

Yeah missed opportunity to work in a deeper fundamental concept. Application to door funnies denied!

νίκη!

E: too esoteric, sorry. Translation: “we did it R*****!” but with reference to the heavily romanticized legend of Thermopylae which commonly include the messenger/runner dramatically shouting “victory” (nikē) before collapsing as the 300th casualty of the battle.

Speaking of which, did you know in NYC it’s legal for a woman to be topless anywhere a man can be? That’s why we walk around naked all the time. Sorry carry on.
