True, one person needs an account. You used to be able to do Jitsi - and before it other webrtc calling solutions - with no account at all but now Jitsi also needs the first host to sign in.

But Signal calls, every participant must have a Signal account. The others, I can invite people to join with no account.

“Browser tech”? Just the fact you can make it work from a browser without needing to install anything else. Again, Signal isn’t set up for that kind of thing. It’s just designed and extended from a different use case.

Jitsi. Even zoom and teams allow joining without an account. Good ol’ webrtc and browser tech.

I require a small cottage at the end of the garden, and if you are to supply the holy water you will need to take appropriate care as to its transport in deion-shielded single-use containers.

A word of warning: if you extinguish your users before AI is ready to consume advertising, you ruin your financial portfolio. Stick with the extending part for now, and also keep the embracing consensual or you can get into trouble these days.

And listen to music, I hear.

No one dares cancel Al. He is too impossible. Too un-cancelable. Too Weird.

For only 12.99M per month I will come and fight your demons for you. Like all good therapists, my ways are mysterious and oblique, but mostly involve a super-soaker.

Hey, speak for yourself ;-p

That is a pretty good reason.

I mean, she is prettier than Marx. Which one did you want to date?

I was going for the Harrys Truman, but this is much better.

Oh well, “if buying isn’t owning…” Time to watch some Lockpicking Lawyer and trundle down to the car licensing lot and indulge in a little piracy >;-)

I don’t think 2mil is enough to make a factory capable of making cars that can compete economically with mass-produced cars. More of a hobby project, I imagine. But if you can do it, even on a small scale - go ahead! That’d be great! Make the world a better place one bit at a time.

Also to some of us (myself included) 1M salary and 2M equity is already through-the-roof rich!

“I have brought peace, freedom, justice and security to my new fediverse!”

Huh, TIL.

Frankly, for a lot of places, I don’t know that would be such a bad idea.

Now doing the same for land, that would be bad…

Do you usually start the car from your bedroom?

Someone very rich who doesn’t feel the need to get arbitrarily richer.

So no one.

Time to expand the Empire again.

Edit: “it’s not an empire, it’s one big country!”

Then the difference is really that someone else is handing the security, right? At the end of the day, there’s an encrypted file somewhere, and a TOTP only protects a particular connection by network.
