the key part from FTA seems to be "The FTC accused Amazon executives of manually turning on the feature to delete messages in Signal even after the company learned that the FTC was investigating and had told Amazon to keep documents, emails and other messages".

In this case, it really appears that they purposely switched to an ephemeral message service *after* FTC told them to keep all messages.

Yes and for quite some time already it's been VERY difficult to 'accidentally' make your bucket public. You literally have to make about 5 explicit clicks to do so.

So in this case, questions have to be asked about how it is possible? Either Azure doesn't have such default settings, in which case - why not? But if it does, then how the fuck do MS engineers be so moronic to go and make it public? (yes the last one is a rhetorical question :P )

well not quite, arch Linux and pacman had been available for 2 years before Ubuntu showed up.

Thanks for the info - for anyone else trying to find it it's sceptre - sceptre

no mod points but I lold

call me naive, but seriously is there no way this asshole can be blocked from slashdot? It's really unpleasant to come to almost every story with a bunch of nasty hateful comments about an individual. I have no idea what the backstory is and I don't care, whoever's doing this is making slashdot a horrible experience.

(yeah I know - browse at +2 but that's hardly an actual solution)

oh wow libreoffice draw actually opens up a pdf with *every single line of text* as it's own text box object, so that's even worse than I thought.

Scribus is telling me that PDF isn't supported, and LibreOffice Draw opens PDFs with no text wrapped and everything overflowing the page and needing a lot of manual adjustment.

I really like Okular for PDFs, only it can't insert images which is the main reason I'd need to edit a PDF.

exactly. I don't care how much they pay or what the opportunities are, I'd rather stab myself in the eyes than get up and go to work every day at a company whose mission is to rape everyone's privacy and sell it. And I am honestly astonished that other people not only feel ok doing that, but think it's something to brag about.

I'm a manager, and if my company implemented this I'd make sure that I kept a record of my team's leave and MADE SURE that they were all taking at least the equivalent of PTO they had before.

I like and respect my team, and any sane person understands that 20 days a year, or whatever, is even not enough to have a good work/life balance - some have kids, some are carers, some have health issues. Are there really managers out there who are trying to scam their reports out of leave? I honestly find it baffling.

oh yeah! I needed to create a profile (never done that before). Thanks.

Yeah it seems like exactly what the original poster wanted, and potentially quite a useful feature.

Using current KDE in Arch linux I checked konsole and neither of the 2 features you mention working for me. I don't want these features so I don't mind, but please confirm whether you have some additional thingybobs or this behavior should be expected in *stock* KDE/Konsole ??

yeah I've actually been fantasizing about something like this for a while now

probably the wrong audience, but this is a genuine question:

Is there some particular business advantage of using Exchange over a trusted alternative like Postfix? I see comments below saying "just use Postfix". OK - if it's that easy and objectively better, why are people still using Exchange?? Is this just an extension of the MS bad / OSS good debate?

Disclosure: I try to avoid MS products wherever possible, and run multiple Postfix instances myself. I've never touched Exchange.

I don't disagree with you, but in real life (I work in Health IT) I can tell you that NOT running windows would result in a massive red flag in any security audit and your managers/Board considering you a complete whack job. Not to mention the plethora of specialist medical apps that only work in a windows OS, and not always even the most recent version.
