Facebook turns over mother and daughter’s chat history to police resulting in abortion charges
  • Unless you pissed off an entire nation state I wouldn't worry about signal as long as you encrypt your device and use a password to unlock. Although I believe that some police in the u.s. have some kind of black box for unlocking phones. In that case, I guess you break off your USB port and rely on wireless charging. Even then, they could send the phone to someone to disassemble and pull an image from the device image and try to get in that way.

    YouTube tests blocking videos unless you disable ad blockers
  • I use an app called 'smart tube next" on my FireTV stick. Im now using re-vanced patched YouTube on my Android.

    I would use rif to browse /r/listentothis and open YouTube links of what I wanted to listen to into ~Vanced to cast to my TV. Once a video was cast onto the TV the next link would give me an option to play or put in queue.

    Then I could scroll, select, queue, scroll, select, queue, etc.

    On Android you can split two apps on your screen, one on top and one on bottom, so I don't get pulled out of rif when selecting a song.

    I know this all sounds complicated, but it's pretty easy once you understand it.

    Anyway, I do this when I'm working around the house. It takes the TV away from me as an option so I don't get distracted while I'm cleaning.

    I wish the queue was available without casting, I know YouTube was experimenting with it as a premium feature. It would probably canalize from YouTube music though.

  • I've definitely noticed the cheap imitations of their product. I've even spotted one or two on the shelves at goodwill. I don't really see those as competition. There's plenty of other brands of stand mixers out there, yet KitchenAid is still considered a solid buy.

  • Instant Pot's Parent Company Files for Bankruptcy
  • That's problem with being a one hit wonder. They had a decent product that became popular. Unfortunately there's only so many people who are in the market for a countertop pressure cooker.

    Although there's plenty of other companies in the space like KitchenAid that have survived over the years.

  • A few quick notes
  • I know most users here are against monetization, but I think that a simple Shopify storefront with behaw merch would go a long way to help entice more people to make a monitory donation. I would love a beehaw mug, stickers, and maybe even a shirt or a hat.
