There are no shades of grey in encrypted communications.

Your messages are either plain text or not to 3rd party.

Sometimes it appears to be encrypted, but there loopholes that make it possible to significantly reduce decryption costs. It is plain text to those who put the loopholes, like specially crafted constants in the algorithm.

Signal runs a service. Even if its source code is open source there’s no guarantee that that’s the code running on the server.

I don’t know the protocol, but I am concerned of man in the middle and how safe it is from man in the middle. In this case signal servers must be considered to be man in the middle.

The only system to trust is peer to peer with proven track record of sending encrypted data over public channels.

That’s PGP and Delta Chat utilizing PGP.

I bought 2 nice queen size beds for about $300. There’s no way local furniture store would produce the same prices.

Temu cuts out entire US retail chain including Amazon shop.

I buy local after I fail to find Temu, Shein or my time needs don’t allow waiting.

Whatever are those options?

Let’s remember all the laughs about friendly Russian fire and doubts surrounding that claim.

Sweet story that omits more than tells

How did the pilot die during the missile strike?

It is a sweet story that forgets to mention that this missile strike shut off electricity in multiple regions despite report of 80% interception rate.

On that day the were multiple leaks of fireballs on the ground. Odessa, for starters.

Ukraine moved significant amounts of anti-air to protect its Kursk invasion of Russia. The result was a successful missile attack against military assets in Ukraine. One of the losses was F-16 with the pilot. How did he die? Was it long range anti-air hit at an impossible distance even for long range missiles? Or was it a hit on the ground? How far away from front lines?

Is it that acknowledging hit on the ground is revealing a successful hit of military airfield used to arm F-16? What about all those sweet intercept numbers?

The way article is written makes reader to think that F-16 was in the air, when it was hit. It is all about the way story was written. However, there’s no actual statement of how or were it was hit.

Russian unofficial telegram channels reported that F-16 was hit on the ground. F-16 is not stationed in Ukraine, but it gets armed in Ukraine to avoid accusation of direct NATO involvement. So, Russians managed to hit a highly missile protected the furthest away airfield in a time window of short F-16 armament.

Suddenly the story has a completely different meaning. That’s why it is a sweet story, that omitted more, than told us.

Update: today’s telegram says F-16 was shutdown by friendly anti-air fire. Was it western supplied weapons that don’t have friendlies identification?

Is ceramic tint different from ordinary tint?

I own old Chromebook.

Chromebook software updates are not forever.

It is my understanding that some Chromebooks might be locked in such a way that installation of Linux might NOT be an option or the might be a high chance of bricking the device.

At least that was the case with my Chromebook.

So, once OS updates are unavailable, the machine might become a weak link from security standpoint or stop running some software.

Chromebook is still a great option, but be careful with very old ones.

It is cheaper to produce fish and greens of manufacturing is combining the production.

The synergy of manufacturing processes increases profits and can be sold to consumers as reduction of energy consumption.
