is labouring under about £20bn of debt and is running out of cash.

Claw back the money from investor dividends and management bonuses then.

I heard he was actually a king from Madagascar, and he likes to move it move it.

You put the mug in the microwave, that's how.

Just the mug and water, mind. You microwave the teabag separately.

They are scones. Savoury scones.

Biscuit literally means twice cooked, from the French, originally from Latin. A biscuit is first baked, then dried. These scones are cooked but once.

What's really weird is that the dish originated in the British Channel Island of Guernsey, where a lot of people speak French (it is close to France than England), most of their roads are French, and they have their own French dialect. And yet they cooked something once and called it a biscuit.

But those other 2 are chock full of extremists.

I always saw those two as something like far left indoctrination camps where people learn and practice astroturfing techniques.

The lemm.ee admin is a shit hot developer though, his instance was generally more robust than all the others, and he helped other instances when they had various problems. It's a shame he wasn't the lead lemmy developer, although I'm sure he doesn't have the time for such a big undertaking.

It does happen often, and it changes over time. For example, my HSBC app used to work just fine without Play Store at all, then it requried some integrity, now it requires strong integrity.

Yeah it's very hit and miss though, and potentially the bank could require strong Play Store integrity, which can only be achieved with a clean keybox file (hard to find).

With regards to contactless purchases, you're actually better off doing it with the physical card contactless, in terms of consumer rights. A contactless card purchase is processed as "Cardholder not present", where the seller assumes some of the liability for verifying the transaction is legit. With such a purchase you can easily argue that someone stole your card and made transactions without your permission, making it easier to claim under consumer protection laws.

This type of purchase has existed for decades and was used for catalogue purchases as well as early internet purchases. If you make a purchase with your card and PIN, or your phone with its PIN, then the purchase is considered authenticated by you and it will be harder to argue it wasn't you. These days a lot of internet purchases are also authenticated (often by SMS or apps) but a contactless card purchase is not.

Magisk (root) plus possibly modules. I don't think Revolut requires that, I think you can just set Magisk to Zygisk domain and hide root by putting Revolut in the deny list.

If it requires more then you'll need to look into MicroG implementations on your device. Assuming Pixel devices (because the user above said GrapheneOS etc), then you'll be installing MicroG as a Magisk module along with Play Integrity Fix, Shamiko, Tricky Store and Zygisk Assistant, at least for Android 14. You'll need a clean keybox file though, and those are very tricky to get, if you want to pass strong integrity but you should be able to get most Play Store Integrity checks to pass then. Without the keybox though some banking apps won't work (because those banks are bastards) without passing strong integrity.
