I lived in the Balkans for 30 years. Serbs have great culture and kafanas, but they are extremely political. It’s so hard to hold a normal conversation without them mentioning Russia, Yugoslavia, Kosovo/Albanians, NATO la-la-la. Especially in kafanas, I can confidently say that a majority of them still live in the past and can’t move on and it’s really sad.

I know two:

1. lot of smoking which is terrible for your skin.

2. life was harder and farming/factory/mining jobs were very popular, first one involve burning in the sun, second in dirt and bad air. Both hard physical work.

It hasn't receive any meaningful update in years now. For those wondering if you'll be fined if piracy is forbidden in your country by using WebTorrent the answer is yes, at least in Germany. They have some good trackers, speaking from experience. :)

This is a great piece of tech. But of course, game companies don’t care much about players after they sell their game. I don’t expect many old games to adopt this, but I expect new ones because it’s going to be a selling feature. In general, expect a IPv6-level of adoptation for this feature.

Hi, German here.

How about not storing any information at all? Nothing to give, problem solved. Just like Signal.

I seriously don’t understand why people use Telegram instead of Signal. Any reason! The app doesn’t solve any privacy problem, default chats are unencrypted, keeps personal info. App should be dead already or turned into a dating app because it’s clearly not seriously privacy fucused.

I invested a lot of time on his identity, not for anything just because I was bored and curious. I highly suspect it’s Adam Back and he currently sits in a tax haven, Malta.

It’s very different. Can I open a PDF from Windows into Windows Sandbox with 2 clicks and close with 1 after reading, nearly instantaneously, without noticing the virtualization? Nope. Windows Sandbox is just a fresh VM, almost useless.

If you have a friend in the Feds, call them they give access to Feds immediately, zero requirements. Security is gone, poof. (sarcasm)

Signal is the purely the best messenger we have so far, I remember OpenWhisper Systems RedPhone and TextSecure and how much it evolved since then. It pushed and helped other messengers to roll e2ee too.

PS. On Twitter Moxie mentioned that Usernames and e2ee Statuses are coming soon -- last missing pieces IMO, what a legend, huge respect and thanks for changing the industry Moxie!
