Interesting that these five eyes nations are backing out of intelligence sharing with the US, and also removing the advice to use Apple encryption. Does this mean the US is able to get that encrypted data in plaintext already, and was previously sharing such with these governments? Now they won't have that and need (want) to see the communications move to platforms they have readily access to.

Usually I'm the person that comes up this stuff like this and I'm a little embarrassed that I didn't.

It does give you a little bit of pause, doesn't it?


Reasonable level of popularity is hard to really gauge. There is no current Reddit replacement for everything it is. Federated services like Piefed, Lemmy, etc are trying and there's good content to be had on those. It's like an early reddit but not as mainstream. Checkout something like https://beehaw.org for one such instance and see if it's your thing.


More akin to patron or medium /substack I guess. They won't go all in on the NSFW only fans type of creators I'm sure.


I was a Linux sysadmin that transitioned to cybersecurity a decade ago. I much prefer this type of work than the new cloud hotness. While there is a lot of check the box security at different companies, that's not what I see or do cybersecurity as. That's more compliance. Granted I am a blue team incident responder and I love the analysis, puzzle and problem solving, and achieving security that's outside the box of _install this tool, good_. I'm lucky that my current company sees our value in that and listens to our recommendations. All that to say, I like this field when it's being done right.


And typically cheaper to employ.


And gullible enough not to realize how disposable they are to prevent their leaders from getting in trouble.

Oh duh, I should've caught that


Which Sony models? I have a Bravia and it's android TV all the way, no basic / dumb mode.


XBR75X900F, which is a 2018 model and made before they added basic TV mode in 2021.


How often does it nag you to say yes, while using it as a dumb TV? are all features usable in that mode? I may need to rethink a Vizio if that's the case and not annoying.


Mine only does that if I accidentally hit the TV+ button on the remote. So I took the remote apart and disconnected that button from the board. Problem solved.

Otherwise it turns on quickly and it's just a dumb tv. Perfect.


It's never nagged me as far as I can remember, and changing input and volume work fine (though it always stays silent on HDMI 1 with EARC).

Of course, none of the "smart TV" things work, and it's not connected to a network, but I don't need those.


_Whose_ permission is needed? You're their parent , that's all the "permissions" needed.


In the Netherlands (and other countries), you have something called "leerplicht" or obligatory education law, and have to ask the school for permission.

The school is allowed to make an exemption for a maximum of 10 days, above that you need to contact the school attendance officer. This can only be provided if the reason falls under some specific types.

If you want to take your children on a holiday outside the national holidays, you have to provide proof that this only a possibility during term time.

You can read more about this at https://www.government.nl/topics/compulsory-school-attendanc...


It's the same in Germany, plus home schooling is not permitted (except in some very specific circumstances).


I live in a country that has laws that protect the children, this includes making sure they get an education.

So now you are not free to do whatever you wish or force schools to teach the way you would like to.

And this is great.

And I also pulled my kids from school once or twice to get a better price on skiing but I am ashamed of myself.


School isn't optional in a lot of European countries. Parents don't get to decide that their kids don't need to attend.


Parents don't always know best. There are countries where the child's right to education is seen as higher than the parent's right to do what they think is right.
