Why do you choose to skirt the real issue of the violation of the constitution? Does it really bother you that the Democrats are being fingered for this?

I couldn't really care less that your constitution is getting shafted, or who's being blamed for it. I'm just pointing out that really, it doesn't matter if it's the Repubs or the Dems in the White House, the guy walking down the street is going to get shafted no matter what.

I also find it pretty hilarious that you think the party responsible for a 10 year war and the beginning of that constitutional rape are the solution to the problem.

The patriot act, let's see, wasn't that a clear example of what's wrong with the law making process? Here you start with a basic premise the gets morphed into something it wasn't meant to be. Both sides try to derail or simply selfishly interject riders on bills to furrther their agenda.

I don't give a **** what you think. LoL

But but but!!! I thought the Democrats were all about civil rights!?!? My mind is blown!!.... LOL...

Big friggin shocker. Dems don't care about Americans rights, freedoms, hell, they don't care about Americans period!

(for the record, I now feel the same way about the Republicans)

People in the US need to understand that people in power will do whatever is necessary to stay in power... If it means taking away our freedoms, our money, imposing their morbid view of how the country should be run on us... So be it. I know the US education system likes to paint a lovely picture of democracy, but all evidence points to the contrary. If we want change in this country, we need to start by abolishing the US senate, Mayors, Governors, and most of all, the President... The entire executive branch is used as a means for inhibiting growth and change in this country, and keeping the rich and powerful.... RICH AND POWERFUL. And the rest of us... Well, your government only cares to keep you just happy enough that you're not going to stand up as a majority and overthrow the government...

Most of you are sheep, and your lawmakers are leading you around as such... Grow a mind, realize how cult-like the Rep/Dem parties are, and look outside the box for change... As you will never find it within.

They already read our emails. Look what happen to gen petraeus.

if they want to look at y our info then they're going to do it no matter what. Funny how some act like they even care enough to look at your info. When its someones job to do something they don't want to do it. if i worked at taco bell i'd be allowed to make tacos, but i'd be so ****in tired of making them they i wouldnt just make them for the hell of it.

Also funny seeing GOP supporters here acting like the dems are crazy, while they were being quiet each and every time the republicans do it, and have done similar things during the Bush years and after.

Officially I'm not a GOP supporter. I'm a Democrat. What does it matter? This country is headed down anyway

    • Simple answer is yes, you will still get the Windows updates and as long as browser is up to date, you will be good. Only thing secure boot does is protect you against boot level threats and make it harder to install other OS's. I've been looking into this pretty thoroughly lately myself as wifes computer has secure boot disabled plus my other, older computers that run Linux, don't have secure boot enabled. Have seen all kinds of questions about this on the Linux Mint and MX Linux forums. Just don't suddenly enable secure boot now.
    • How many other companies will follow Ford's lead? Or, have they already gotten lazy and become enslaved to AI--and now can't figure out how to get out of that mess.
    • Why would any self-respecting intelligent person follow any recommendation by Donald's GOP administration? With almost two years of fabrications, deceit, and blatantly illegal behavior, why believe them now? They had best be gone after the November 2026 election, so we'll wait and see.
    • AltSendme 0.4.1 by Razvan Serea AltSendme is a minimal, cross-platform application designed for fast, secure, and private peer-to-peer file transfers. It allows users to send files or entire directories directly between devices without relying on cloud servers, accounts, or any personal information. Everything is encrypted end-to-end using modern protocols like QUIC and TLS 1.3, ensuring both strong security and low-latency performance. Transfers are verified with BLAKE3 for data integrity, and interrupted downloads automatically resume, making the experience reliable even on unstable connections. You can transfer anything—images, videos, documents, and more. Integrity checks are performed on both ends, so your files are automatically verified for correctness during both sending and receiving. AltSendme works seamlessly across local networks or long-distance links, capable of saturating multi-gigabit connections for extremely fast delivery. With built-in NAT traversal and encrypted relay fallback, it connects devices almost anywhere. The app integrates with the Sendme CLI and will soon support mobile and web platforms. Fully free and open-source, AltSendme offers a lightweight, privacy-first alternative to traditional cloud-based services, removing size limits, upload costs, and unnecessary data exposure. AltSendme 0.4.1 changelog: Release Highlights Self-hosted relays: Run your own iroh relay so transfers don't rely on public infrastructure. Includes a full deployment template in deploy/relay/ with Docker Compose for a VPS and configuration examples for production use. Fly.io support: One-click deploy template for Fly.io, including a quick-start config (fly.dev.toml) for testing without a custom domain, plus production setup with Let's Encrypt and your own hostname. Relay settings UI: New Settings → Network panel to choose how AltSendme connects: automatic public relays, custom self-hosted URLs (with optional auth token), or disabled. Test connections, verify latency, and see live relay status in the footer. Disable relays: Turn off relay servers entirely when you only need same-network transfers (e.g. LAN). Direct connections only. No relay hop required when devices can reach each other. Android graduates from beta: Android is now part of the regular release cycle alongside desktop. APKs ship with each version (universal, arm64, and armv7). Other improvements Private relay access control via shared auth token Relay fallback notifications when a custom relay is unreachable Broadcast mode toggle in sharing settings Android release build fixes (split-per-ABI APKs, universal APK preservation) UI polish: mobile safe-area insets, dropzone layout, transfer progress animation Bug fixes for minification-related serialization issues and system tray icon loading What's Changed feat(relay): add relay status functionality and settings UI (a120cdf) feat(relay): implement custom relay server configuration and verification (51276c7) feat(relay): add configuration for private relay access and enhance observability features (48fbabf) feat(relay): enhance relay URL validation, display connection status (d4fffa0) feat(relay): add RelayChangeGuard component and enhance relay-related translations (16ba514) feat(broadcast): add toggle setting for broadcast mode in sharing UI (ca6d977) fix(relay): correct QUIC discovery port, pin image, templatize fly.dev (52a2ba5) fix: More broken serialization due to minification (67491a9) fix(android): preserve true universal APK across per-ABI builds (e9f256f) fix(ui): conditional safe-area insets padding on mobile (1182f0e) refactor(transfer): CircularRing component animation fix (944572b) chore(android): drop x86 and x86_64 release APKs, keep universal+arm64+armv7 (34ada0b) Download: AltSendme 0.4.1 | ARM64 | ~9.0 MB (Open Source) Download: AltSendme for MacOS | Android Links: AltSendme Home Page | GitHub | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • You are mostly right about the ephemeral nature of it. As I mention in the article, if you dont add a second device or take a backup of your account before uninstalling it, then yes you will lose access to your account. That said, in terms of actual user experience when you sync multiple devices your message history carries across and there's also a Saved Messages chat like there is on Telegram to send messages and attachments between your installs. But yh, what you point out are correct and its not trying to emulate Messenger or Telegram.
