I have an EMUI system, it's very hard to tinker, but i uninstalled maps and playstore ecc
I'll be waiting for the GUI cuz i'm kinda stupid. How does it work if discord rate limits you btw? Are you able to modify the milliseconds of the deletion rate of messages?
Please let us know
It's what the title says, i don't want to be posted on fricking instagram and my school didn't ask for anyone's consent. It's not just one, it's severeal. How can i make instagram remove them? Thank you for your help
edit 1: thanks for the heads up, especially for the ones who seem truly interested to help me in this matter. So what i did till now is to send an email to my school collaborator (which is a scholastic figure who is responsible for the management of the school in general) requesting the deletion of the images depicting myself.
This is the complete request translated in english: Hi, I saw that recently several photos have been posted by the school account on instagram that depict me. I kindly request the removal of the aforementioned photos, since I have not given consent (or if given, withdraw such consent) to the publication of my image online on accounts not controlled and managed by me. I explicitly ask you to avoid "censoring" my image, but to commit to deleting the photos in which I am present, in order to avoid any kind of retaliation against me. Please let me know if there is anything else I should do to complete this process, thanks for your cooperation.
I've also tried to let instagram delete these images through this link but i don't know if it was successful or not because i gave them an email as contact info but i didn't receive anything yet.
I'll let you know how this ends Update: Today, during class hours, I was summoned by the principal to their office. They wanted to discuss with me the content of that email, specifically they asked me directly severeal things. They asked me if i was in any kind of "danger", since i wrote, in their opinion, a sentence that could be interpreted as a sort of announcement of possible danger on my side. They were referring to this sentence contained in the email: "...in order to avoid any kind of retaliation against me.". I replied to them that i was merely referring to possible social judgment that could come from my classmates and/or erasmus participants after seeing my face censored or any photo deleted on any school social account.
They asked me the reason why i wanted those photos to be deleted, to which i replied that i didn't enjoy the idea of having my likeness shown in social accounts that i don't own and don't have access to (they even posted me on facebook by the way).
So, that mocking removed of a principal, replied to me saying that apparently my dad did sign the privacy waiver back when he enrolled me to my school so basically i have no right to request the deletion of the photos and neither having my face censored because, since i'm a minor, my dad signed it. I then asked them if it was possible to withdraw such consent, and they replied that it was possible but my parents are in charge of it, not me. They then warned me about having called my parents asking, prior to our meeting, if they remember signing the waiver, to which they replied "yes" (but of course when i advancely asked them if they remember signing anything, they said idk/i don't remember) but not only that, they even said that my parents weren't willing to withdraw any consent regarding my image usage nor any privacy related clauses (thanks mom, thanks dad, as always).
Set apart the mockings about how this request of mine was only a fixation and that there could not be any kind of social retaliation against me because students won't give a damn about why my face was censored (which is a good things, except that it's not how it works here) and they instead focus on studying (biggest lie i've eve heard, my school sucks ass when it comes to having committed students, no coincidence that i was the only one able to speak english among the erasmus participants) and that i should do it too instead of thinking about these things... set apart that, since i was exhausted i said fine, i'll be waiting till i'm 18 years old and then you'll remove those images. They basically said (NUH UH) that they're not going to delete any photo since the purpose of erasmuses, as a European initiative, is to disseminate, which means publicize this initiative and that the best they can do is to "censor" my face. I replied to them that it was their choice, and not this kind of erasmus purpose, to not commit deleting the images in which i was present. I said whatever, as long as my face is censored, i can sleep well at night but they said that they are gonna censor me as the law requires... great, what does it mean? It means that they're just gonna be putting a black bar to cover my eyes. Oh that's awesome, haha facebook, got you there, i'm unrecognizable now!
So what can i do now? My last resorts are either to convince my parents to withdraw such consent or to continue emailing instagram about deleting the photos in which my face is shown. Instagram in the end did respond to my request but, they were asking me the exact position and description of me in the photo, so that they can verify that i am indeed in that photo (how exactly? I don't know since i could be faking it). Isn't that like telling facebook who i am , which is exactly the contrary to the purpose of my request? What are your opinions about this?
Bruh are you dead ass serious rn, i was ironic. You clearly don't know what we're discussing here, take a look at the thread you are in
Not in my school (italy), nobody gives a fuck about privacy. Shitheads be buying an iphone 15 just for social status, yet they can't even spell one word of english without stuttering
That's very useful. Thank you for the explanation and your time spent making this comment. If they come up with some shit, i'll definetly tell them the articles you stated
Ubuntu wont load on startup
This happened after i locked out my pc (like sleep mode but doesn't sleep, it just locks the screen asking for a password) and leaved it for a couple of hours on. When i returned i rebooted it because i couldn't even write the password in the box in order to unlock the screen and this happened. It stays like this and does nothing, i could wait hours and expect nothing to happen. How can i fix this? Thank you

Display freezes leaving only the mouse movement
I don't know why but every now and then my display completely freezes, completely except my mouse which is still able to navigate the screen, but can't interact with anything. No hotkey works, seems that the keyboard freezes too when this happens, except for the one that lets me enable the leds of the pc. I use a msi laptop with hybrid graphics card if that can help
Wi-fi disables completely after playing certain games on steam
The problem is this, when i'm playing these two games in particular, after 15 or 20 minutes the wi-fi completely disappear, no wi-fis being displayed and if i try to turn off and back on it freezes until i wait a couple of seconds for it to unfreeze. The heck is this? I'm using kde manjaro
Discord refuses to remove my phone number attached to my account
Hi, there's this situation i currently have with discord support, that they refuse to delete my phone number from my account. Basically every time i try to manually remove it, my account gets locked up until i add another phone number in order to continue accessing the service, "for security reasons" with no option for email verification (of course).
I contacted the support team asking for clarifications and if they could remove the phone number and, in short, they said that they couldn't do that since my account was flagged somehow, and that they won't remove the phone verification...
Now, what are your opinions about this? Should i use a free voip number site in order to replace my real phone number with the fake one? My concern is that i don't know who could own that number so i don't know if it's safe to trust it, and i'm not willing to spend any money for this
Highly distorted galaxies by JWST
This is El Gordo, a NIRCam medium deep field of a galaxy cluster contains hundreds of galaxies that existed when the universe was 6.2 billion years old.
The reddish distorted "fish-hook" like galaxy, called El Anzuelo, is a far galaxy, which its light took 10.6 billion years to reach us. Its distinctive red color is due to a combination of reddening from dust within the galaxy itself and cosmological redshift due to its extreme distance.
