It looks like he is the president of the Unites States as written on the document they all signed.

lol this is true, some communities basically re-post reddit posts :)

lemmy might be an alternative, start at https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.world%2F

My reddit account is 16+ years old, but for 3 or 4 years now, since the API backlash, I just lurk from time to time for specific thing I search, never post, never upvote.

My /. account is I think 29 years old and I come here daily.

Would be fun, no more cellphones, laptops, or TVs in USA

Some SCADA stuff that monitor powerlines and water utilities and all are super old, those working with 3G modem are being replaced at least, it is sometimes 20 years old technology without security. For instance it reports by SMS and you send SMS to it to execute commands and all.

What a world we live in, it's incredible LOL

The only thing the internet is is an ad platform.

My KIA has a startup screen where you can press "confirm", but there is a 7s timeout or something so it's not too bad, I just ignore it.

Be it Bluetooth, meshtastic or meshcore

I'm using Qwant for a couple of months, on both PC and phone, both in Firefox, it works well.

Wow great UID, I am here on /. since before we could have username and all too, 1998 or something? Glad to see old coots like us are still here!

They broke support, for the username, maybe 20 years ago, my username was "Frédéric54" but after a slashcode update I was unable to log, I had to contact CmdrTaco to debug this and it was because they broke accented characters badly. Taco had to rename my username in the database...

> Or turn it off, but is that 100% safe?

It seems not, because IIRC my Pixel 10 says that even if for instance a thief steal my phone and shutdown it, it will still be traceable for a few hours.

After an invite I got the firstname of my daughter in ~2005, she was 2yo! Let's say her email is something like emilie@gmail.com it's pretty neat.

This is really sad, I started with Arduino in 2007 or something, you just needed an ATMEGA168 and a few component around and you were in business. Add some sensors, inputs, a 16x2 LCD, and you could do a lot of fun things :) Now they propose something like a rPi ?!?
