Who tf uses messenger

Facebook Messenger is the 2nd largest chat/messaging client behind Whatsapp, also a Meta service.

Over 3 billion users combined.

So, to answer your question: "Nearly everybody."

I think it's fucking adorable. And kudos to the Uncle for using it as a learning moment instead of just brushing her off or doing it for her. Curiosity should be encouraged and this is a great example why.

Kiddies who like the idea of using a 'hacker' distro even though they'd never exceed a Ubuntu LiveCD usecase.

I've gotten a few to reconsider after pointing out that all the tools in Kali rely on lax permissions and security flaws remaining on their system for them to be effective when targeting others.

Trust isn't a sliding scale, bro. If you have reason to distrust slightly, you still have a reason to distrust. You're just trying to convince yourself one form of a breach of trust isn't as bad as another.

And honestly, size of the company has little to do with it overall: Brave has been verrrrrrrry fucking shady.

Update your software.

More open formats, more open Internet! Down with Google!

Erm. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebP

WebP was first announced by Google on 30 September in 2010 as a new open format for lossy compressed true-color graphics on the web, producing files that were smaller than JPEG files for comparable image quality.[9]

For as long as they continue to support and release code for open formats, there's hardly an argument here. There are many complaints to be had about Google.

Yours are none of them.

Webp: Open source, source code available to download.

But yes, Google is trying to own the modern web. :eyeroll:

Like with anything else, you get what you pay for. Buy a Samsung tablet next time.

My Acer C710 still going strong, repurposed as a 3D Printer host. Also with Gallium OS. I just can't seem to kill it.

"being a lot of work" = I couldn't follow a guide.

Honestly, Chromebooks are among some of the easiest systems to boot a Linux distro on. Far easier than, say, Bootcamp.

• Exceptions apply to enterprise or education enrolled systems as they lock those devices down. Corporations and schools, however, do have the option to release the hardware and allow modifications to the system.

I have a Mac Mini that has to be dumped because Apple is no longer providing OS updates to it. Just because you can continue to use it doesn't mean it's a good idea to do so. iOS and OSX are being increasingly targeted especially as the inertia against upgrading systems that work just fine is highest among the technologically illiterate.
