SMB on MacOS has had performance issues for a long, long time. It doesn’t implement SMB very well, and all the Samba hackery people need to go through to work around it is basically just lived with. rsync is much better because of this.

400kbps would be slow as hell, for all of those use cases. Video would be unusable, but other stuff would still be insanely slow with all the bloat in modern websites and tracking crap in apps.

Unfortunately, the wait time to receive one of these visas is often more than 15 years.

The Department of Homeland Security, which oversees ICE, has defended the deportations, arguing that crime victims can return later if their visas are eventually approved.

So if you’re still alive in 15 years, let us know. Also, we haven’t heard from you, so you need to restart the process.

I’m downvoting this purely because of how extensively the title is sane-washing the actual statement.

What Trump actually said on his propaganda site:

Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell – JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP.”

That article reads like a ChatGPT summary, though I’m not sure if that’s partially due to translation from German or not.

The US doesn’t “bring freedom” and then leave after.

The only Korean-to-American remake I can think of off-hand is Oldboy. The remake was OK but it was a far cry from being even a shadow of the original.

Capitalism > Law

I’m aware. Several issues there.

1. They use / buy lists of people to robo-dial
2. They don’t bother opt-out request handling on those lists reliably
3. The opt-out process is per-campaign, not party-wide, so the process is an endless cycle for all party candidates, and even the same ones running in future elections. Because we have no way to our out at the party level, the data is basically always there.

This is by no means am exhaustive list.

The DNC just gives it to any Dem campaign. RNC is the same. I use SMS Filter+.

I think political calls are basically exempt from it, anyways.

“Prior consent” is basically moot if you ever donate to a y campaign, ever, because you have to provide a real phone number. Or if you sign a petition your party is running, or somehow end up having that party get your number some other legitimate way. They have no way to prove (or you to disprove) your consent.

I just treat them all as spam, and report/block accordingly.

iOS 26 gave people the built-in call screening, which has been amazing for weeding out garbage calls, at least. Text messages are a different evil, but there are apps you can use to trash text messages that contain specific words, etc.

So does Claude. Just because the user-facing features forget it, doesn’t mean the company does.

Yeah, those poor capitalists forced to jack up prices to take advantage of shortages.

Heh, mail-in voting in my state uses that same “envelopes with barcodes” stuff. So more smoke and mirrors from this admin, for sure, since they want to get rid of mail-in ballots but still require all the steps those require, minus the mail part…

I was arguing with the point of “repeatedly” being a determining factor for having to have this device. It’s not reality, once is enough.

They lost their license for 2 years. The equipment was required to get it back.

Nice straw man. Murder != drunk driving.

I know someone that did it once and having to have one of these as a result. Suggest you reset your opinions a bit.

Disagree. The fact that these devices are both capable of, and would actively, emphatically, attempt to do any level of data harvesting, is a problem. Can they be defeated? Yes. They should not have to be. We deserve better.

Yes, analog phones could be daisy chained inside the home, either by hard wiring, or via ports. ports.
