SS7 is vulnerable to attack. However, the types off attacks on the video don’t affect Signal as it requires a pin. (Make sure you set your pin to something strong and secure)

    when I read comments like these it makes me realize that maybe all the money flowing to OpenAI isn’t folly and there really are people out there trying to tl;dr their own lives

        What feels alien to me is the idea that experiencing a creative work is itself a means to an end.

        I prefer to digest text too, but still would choose to taste a meal than read a typed up printout of the flavors it contains.

          unfortunately, sometimes the chef likes to ascend from a golden staircase first to tell you about who they are and what the meal means to them, whilst passionately discussing their good friend’s VPN company, before finally, dramatically, letting you actually sit down and eat.

          It wasn’t always like that. I remember when dishes were thrown fresh out of the kitchen without even a “heads up” call. Those were good meals.

            Exactly! Why go to the first restaurant (video) at all if you don’t like the experience? You’re really going to wait outside the door of the first one asking the people leaving what the food tastes like? How is that better than the restaurant (videos) you do like?

              Because when I told the taxi driver that I was “a bit peckish”, rather than take me to a nice greasy spoon where I can swallow a nice meal in 5 minutes, pay $5 and leave… he took me to the Ritz where I had to wait for a waiter to talk my ear off about the pastrami whilst being presented a wine menu.

              I ain’t got time for that, I just wanted to satiate my hunger!

                We seem to agree that actually eating real food at a greasy spoon is preferable to reading a description of the dining experience offered at the Ritz. But your replies give me the impression we disagree?

                  Im likely mixing metaphors, but the general gist is that reading an article is like eating a good cheap meal, whilst seeing a whole youtube video is like being treated to tiny portions at a fancy restaurant

                    I see, I wasn’t comparing an article to a video, I was comparing a video to a text summary of the same video.
