KeePass allows offline password management, though I am not sure if it supports card/ID autofill.

Bitwarden is mainly online only, but does support card/ID autofill and allows users to self-host their data if desired.

Not overly familiar with other password managers, but it would not surprise me if one of them out there has the best of both worlds.

Didn’t Signal get big after Musk endorsed it? What gives?

Guessing it’s likely due to Apple’s approval process. You can try to patch 1 major issue but they won’t approve an update unless it also adds compatibility for all of their new standards and features.

Not to say that’s unreasonable of Apple, but if the game’s not making money on that platform anymore I can understand the decision to just pull it rather than sink more resources into supporting it in perpetuity.

Plus it’s just not a good remaster anyways, they really bungled up the multiplayer capability. I don’t think anything of value has been lost.

I’m suggesting that if Trump wants to cross the Rubicon, let Trump be the one to cross it. No need to meet him on the other side first.

In theory yes, Google should face no consequences for publishing an inaccurate map. There’s actually an old tradition of publishing maps with at least 1 inaccuracy in order to catch forgeries, which has never been a legal issue in the US. It shouldn’t be any more controversial than a published document choosing to call Jerusalem “Al-Quds”

In practice, I imagine Trump will throw a tantrum and try to argue that Google doesn’t have the right to say no to him. And if that’s the stance he wants to take, disregarding the constitutional protections that Google ought to have, let his administration waste time and resources arguing that in the courts. If he wins, then we can all stop pretending the constitution means anything, and if he loses, it’s a blow to his ego, resources wasted, and we can turn the focus on other companies to say they have an ethical obligation to change the names back.

Why wouldn’t it? Google’s just a company, not an arm of the government. At best, maybe there is some sort of accreditation process to have their maps called “authentic” or “accurate” or whatnot, but I’ve never heard of any US law that penalizes the publication of an inaccurate map.

I mean, they are to an extent. The laws of the US are ostensibly supposed to allow citizens to call things whatever they want. If the government wants to throw a hissy fit and say the constitution is meaningless after all, let them do it. At least then we could give up all of the pretense that they are supposed to care about what it says.

A lot of other AI models can say the same, though. Facebook’s is. Xitter’s is. Still wouldn’t trust those at all, or any other model that publishes no reproduceable code.

Deepseek is not open source.

Ah, the ol’ Blahaj Pik-a-choo

Part of it is honestly that they believe themselves to be good, smart people, and therefore they aren’t a target for hackers. Bonus points if they’re also devout Christians and believe misfortune only comes to those who deserve it (and they certainly don’t deserve it).

I barely use computers/My password is hard to guess/I don’t reply to scam emails/My laptop or phone is too new/I have McAfee Antivirus/My nephew knows computers and would help me if I ask…these are the sorts of things that people (not even just Boomers) think somehow keeps them safe.

They think people only get hacked if they’re too poor to upgrade their tech or if they’re trying to do something illegal online. And they have blind trust in corporations and their banks. Wouldn’t surprise me if a good plurality of Americans still believe their money in the bank is kept in the form of gold buillon in a vault somewhere and is therefore safe from theft.

Don’t be evil (to the shareholders)

Do the right thing (for our stock value)

Do no harm (to our profit margins)
