Yes!

I wondered where the furniture 'goes' when closed up. But the sheer simplicity of the design is genius.

Can you drive and listen to music - are you actually doing both at the same time?

Thank you for the detailed suggestion. I use LittleSnitch. pi-hole previously, I must take another look. Did you catch LG spying posts?

Strange. I wonder why? Have you adjusted 'roles', added 'ask clarifying questions'? This is most peculiar.

>do try it

Thank you, I might. I never have, the launch was such a mess, I've never looked back and fastidiously turn it all off.

What's changed, for you to say it now works? And what do you successfully and regularly do with it?

>...only Signal completely opts out of iCloud...

There is an iCloud option on Signal. It's on by default - is that Apple or Signal's doing? - but yes, iCloud can be turned off and Signal have their own e2e backup, if you want to back up. Also a paid option.

Building the World's First Post-Quantum Zero-Knowledge Social Network: A Phased Migration Story - is the full title. I've followed this project with interest. MOSSLET. Notably, mentions of Mosslet on HackerNews are scant. I post in case of interest or curiosity to the open source privacy dev boffins here.

Thank you. Strange, I'm not seeing any video under the first main text or anywhere on the website. After the main text I see "On your iPhone" with 2 screenshots immediately below and then 1 underneath those. Then the rest, but no video.

If a name and the address associated 'votes', how long before that initial vote is noted in the system? I'm assuming a situation in which there's fake slips out there, or a subsequent digital vote comes in. When is the discrepancy flagged?

I'm unable to access the browser extension or protonpass, even though I'm logged in. Nothing beyond the GUI front page.

To all of us, British or otherwise, who're posting our rabbit-holing Democracy and Brexit comments, a moment of cutting light relief. Enjoy some "Yes, Prime Minister".

Ideally children are taught more about what voting is at school. Additionally they could vote in elections with their vote recorded but not counted. So they get into the swing of it. This might avoid rampant apathy, which suits extremes. Sidenote, I wouldn't want you to read into this I am ignorant just how third rate most political parties and their policies have become.

>kids are too young to vote

I said 16 yo should've had a Brexit vote/say because, especially in this case, it's the kids that reap the choices made.

More Generally 16 year olds are old enough to take part in democracy vote-wise, and maybe in all votes too. The point being - look at the short term, actually make that 'not long term', policies being made now by us olds, they don't favor young people, on the whole - or their children.

TBF, people tend to vote for other things - but yes, get 'that' bundled in the small print 'for free'.
