Sensor shows 2 people in bed, when you're not home.

Notion is just a OneNote alternative.

America as a reserve currency is based on debt. BRICS (from what I understand) is based on assets.

It's true that most Aussies live in southern states and have never experienced dangerous animals.

However, people living in north QLD, NT and WA are definitely in nature's territory. Crocodiles are now inhabiting almost every waterway, dry conditions make taipan snakes and spiders a real threat, and the rainforest really does has dangerous plants and animals. As an FNQ resident, most locals no longer swim at the beaches.

I think your perspective depends on where you live.

BRICS is the new reserve currency. America pushed too hard on bad policies, poor public sector services, unaffordable health care, and lower education standards... there's no coming back from that.

You know who really wants that button Seth? Nobody.

People seek entertainment, people seek hope, people seek emotion, not just facts.

Reality is hard for a lot of people at the moment, and mindless stuff can be a reprieve.

I think FF users need these sites more than the sites need them. There's little motivation to support a browser with relatively few users, and a big motivation to get users to switch to their platform.

Those are the same concerns I hear from my grandma.

Fortunately systems are designed for multi users, with sandboxes and access controls and heuristics now, and it's less of a problem for most people.

Our ability to sideload apps, or install pwa that are full featured doesn't need to affect your safe little bubble of protection. You'll be ok, I promise.

A combination of 1. Cost of living forcing both partners to work and have less time and energy 2. Social media distraction 3. Pressure to meet the exceedingly high standards we constantly hear about 4. Women's roles changing and feminist values

It's right there on the FileTransfer page... "Open Android File Transfer. The next time that you connect your device, it opens automatically".

That's not magic mate, something needs to monitor for your Android device being connected otherwise you'd complain that it's not as user friendly as other Mac apps.

Exposed private chat messages...

It was a small 30 person company with an overbearing founder.

We ran a chat program called Pandion to allow non-IT staff to quickly ask each other work questions.

The boss had already asked us in IT to set up journaling in Outlook so he was getting a copy of every email sent and received by his staff.

Next he turned his attention to Pandion and I was tasked with setting up a regular report containing all chat messages that were logged on the server.

I knew everyone in the company personally and didn't care to read their private messages...but the boss wanted to get a copy right away before it was announced to staff.

So I send a copy to him, containing the last few days of messages that had been sent.

Of course a couple of staff were dating. Apparently Glen* and Amy* used Pandion for personal messages to each other.

I'm sitting with the boss explaining how the staff don't know their messages are being reported on and we can start publishing the report after the next team meeting, but the boss wanted none of that...

So we start going through it together. One of the first messages is from Glen telling Amy that she's as tight as the seal on his lunchbox. The boss had a good sense of humor and we both pissed ourselves laughing, but it still goes against my values.
