So I get a free spam filter for not verifying? Guess I'm never verifying then, lol.

Even better, set it to 1234567890 or 00000000 or similar easy to guess pin, and change it to the length of your actual pin, now if someone tries to bruteforce your phone it will instantly wipe and you can make a case that it was the law enforcement who destroyed any "evidence" by their own actions if in comes up In court.

I like mullvad because I can pay for it with vouchers and have nothing to tie my payment to my account#

I don't think any other VPN can do that.

Theres also the fact that mullvad was raided by the (Swedish)police and even though they fully complied, the police ended up walking away with nothing because mullvad had nothing to give them.

Proton on the other hand, will at the very least be storing your email, payment info, and possibly other info in your account that mullvad won't. I also don't like how they have aligned themselves with conservative politics.

I'm just guessing here, but the left image looks both low red and out of focus while the right one in much higher red and much more in focus, so it could be that the little bit of hair on his brow just doesn't show up well on the CCTV and that's why it looks like he has more monobrow hair on the right. I'm not dismissing the possibility that he's a different person completely, but if I go with an Occam's razor though process, I'm inclined to lean in the direction of it being a visual thing with the camera+lighting+environment difference rather than being a completely different (but similar looking) person with a weapon like the one used in the shooting and a manefesto and the same style of face mask, ect.

Awww, are the poor popo upset because they can't violate 4rth and 5th amendment rights willy nilly?

It's not private if it requires a Google account to use the feature. Edit: apparently you do not need a google account to use the feature, if so then I just hope it makes it into AOSP so we can use it on custom roms.

actually I found the joke to be funnier because it was litterally technically correct.

The meme is literally correct. when you make an audio file into an mp3, it takes some of the sonic information that our brains are bad at noticing and just...completely removes it(to save storage space). if it's a high quallity mp3 its essentially completely unnoticable. That's why it's psychoacoustic, it uses psychology to fool your brain into thinking it sounds better than it does, litterally.

Psycoachoustic is basically just a big word for taking into account how our brains deal with what we hear.

Also I'm not saying mp3 is bad, in fact I think the opposite is true. I think it's good to think of it like being the .JPG of audio, you're not getting the original quallity and that's the point and unless you need to do manipulate that audio file and its a reasonable quallity then you likely won't notice the difference.

Ogg vorbis (.ogg) is a better codec though IMO.

Fun fact, the shinkansen(bullet train) in Japan has had no fatal crashes or derailments since its opening in 1964, and in case you forgot, Japan is constantly plagued by earthquakes.

Are we in the V for vendetta timeline now?
