dastanktal@lemmy.mlto technology@hexbear.net•ICEBlock - See Something, Tap SomethingEnglish6·2 days agoNot that I’m aware of but the extreme lack of knowledge regarding Android privacy is enough to set off alarm bills in my head that this is not an application I want to be using. Along with the fact the app is closed source in the developer doesn’t want to open source it it makes me just highly suspicious. Gives me the feeling the developers not in this for the right reasons.
Especially when you considering that on iOS to download applications you have to sign into an Apple account so it’s tracked that way.
There’s no such need to do such a thing on an Android phone so personally I just would not recommend this app. I think the web based Alternatives respect privacy better and have the same functionality.
dastanktal@lemmy.mlto technology@hexbear.net•ICEBlock - See Something, Tap SomethingEnglish7·2 days agoYep. Closed source and unreviewable.
dastanktal@lemmy.mlto technology@hexbear.net•ICEBlock - See Something, Tap SomethingEnglish7·2 days agoThis developers kind of dumb. Especially their reasoning for not supporting Android when it’s completely possible to develop applications that do not utilize Google notifications. I’d be wary of this app and while it’s probably better than nothing there are better alternatives.
I was using one the other day that I really like that was web-based that sent notifications to your phone via the browser push. Let me see if I can go find that.
Edit:
This is what I would use https://stopice.net/

Do as we tell you or we will let the proxies carve you into pieces.
dastanktal@lemmy.mlOPto news@hexbear.net•Union Bureaucracy Ends Three-Week Colorado Safeway StrikeEnglish4·5 days agoI really appreciate this extra context.
You’re right. The Safeway Union fought hard for the gains that they did get and we should be proud that they were able to extract any concessions in the Imperial core.
It sucks they didn’t get better than what they did get but the fact they were able to extract anything is better than most workers in the United States get anyway.
I really appreciate you highlighting the specific points of where they were trying to twist and hide things. That’ll make it a lot easier for me and hopefully others to identify these type of things in the future.
dastanktal@lemmy.mlOPto news@hexbear.net•Union Bureaucracy Ends Three-Week Colorado Safeway StrikeEnglish3·5 days agoCompletely Fair. I’ll keep these things in mind in the future as I read this publication. Thanks for the Insight comrade
dastanktal@lemmy.mlOPto news@hexbear.net•Union Bureaucracy Ends Three-Week Colorado Safeway StrikeEnglish6·5 days agoThat’s a very interesting viewpoint.
I thought this type of publication would have a lot of Trust behind it because it’s supposedly focuses on worker rights And it’s supposed to be anti-capitalist in nature.
We have seen times where unions did work with companies and screwed their constituents out of a good deal. Unions don’t always work for the betterment of everybody since they are susceptible to Elite capture.
dastanktal@lemmy.mlOPto news@hexbear.net•Air India crash seems to be caused by Cut Off fuelEnglish2·6 days agoI’m super glad my parents weren’t really religious so I got to miss out on this particular flavor of suck
dastanktal@lemmy.mlOPto news@hexbear.net•Air India crash seems to be caused by Cut Off fuelEnglish5·6 days agoThat’s very true but the report seem to paint Bonin As just simply making a mistake. He just defaulted to the wrong mode in a panic which is why he reacted the wrong way to the stall.
Even if they restarted the engines pretty quick would they have managed to avoid the crash?
Still I highly doubt this was a pilot suicide.
dastanktal@lemmy.mlOPto news@hexbear.net•Air India crash seems to be caused by Cut Off fuelEnglish4·6 days agoI mean I feel like it’s more specifically a Catholic thing then it it is a Christian thing. Maybe Protestants are like that too but from my time as a Methodist they did not care about suicide as a sin. They were much more concerned about you know getting you help professionally.
dastanktal@lemmy.mlOPto news@hexbear.net•Air India crash seems to be caused by Cut Off fuelEnglish7·6 days agoI was reading somewhere that apparently there is an override for the fuel switches so they can be turned freely maybe they could have accidentally be bumped but from what you’re saying that doesn’t sound very likely.
Even if they made a mistake it could also be to something like drowsiness. that would mean they would have made a mistake but it’s not their fault that the mistake was made in the first place.
The NTSB has managed to investigate and come up with pretty decent conclusions on crazy or things so I’m hoping they’ll have something better in the final report.
dastanktal@lemmy.mlOPto news@hexbear.net•Air India crash seems to be caused by Cut Off fuelEnglish4·6 days agoIt’s difficult to conclude anything other than murder-suicide.
How the actual fuck did they come to that conclusion?
Does seem like there are people pointing out different ways this could have conceivably happened their too which is nice to see.
dastanktal@lemmy.mlOPto news@hexbear.net•Air India crash seems to be caused by Cut Off fuelEnglish7·6 days agoHmm good point. Last I checked didn’t they fix this by creating a better alerting system and vibrating the sticks if both are engaged?
Still there record looking much much better then Boeing at this point.
dastanktal@lemmy.mlOPto news@hexbear.net•Air India crash seems to be caused by Cut Off fuelEnglish14·6 days agoI’m really inclined to believe that it’s the planes fault somehow. Especially considering that the voice recorder picked up both Pilots noticing the fuel had been cut off.
I think someone else on this thread mentioned something about the Ethiopian Pilots being blamed for the 737 crash due to MCAS. Which is really crazy because that was the only group that actually followed the relative bullet point in case that exact issue happened and they just could not turn it around.
You notice what airplanes we haven’t talked about falling from the sky? Airbus.
dastanktal@lemmy.mlOPto news@hexbear.net•Air India crash seems to be caused by Cut Off fuelEnglish8·6 days agoUnfortunately you know how it is when it comes to racism and United States airplanes.
Given that this is on the 787 which allegedly has some issues by a whistleblower I really curious to see the final report before I condemn anybody.
Besides both of these Pilots flew for years. That means they’ve flown probably thousands of flights over their lifetime and it was just this last flight that didn’t go well.
Also there isn’t any proof about this being a suicide. No one’s released anything about any statements any of the pilots have said. And isn’t that really frowned upon in India anyway?
dastanktal@lemmy.mlto news@hexbear.net•Iran Says Over 90% of Missiles Hit Targets in Retaliatory Strikes on IsraelEnglish14·6 days agoOh man they really did blow through the Iron Dome. No wonder Bibi was calling “Daddy” in such a panic.
dastanktal@lemmy.mlOPto news@hexbear.net•Air India crash seems to be caused by Cut Off fuelEnglish14·6 days agoTo me it definitely seems very early to be blaming the pilots. Especially given the quote in the article about the voice recorder where are the pilots were talking about the cut-off fuel which means they noticed it. It could also be just a completely innocent mistake just due to the massive amount of time that a pilot has to do but it seems unusual that Pilots this experienced would make this type of mistake.
It’ll be for sure interesting when the final report comes out about what was discovered but you know they’re releasing this initial report to reduce damage to Boeing imho
