Eyestrain?

>It is not the technology itself, but rather the image quality that seems crucial for reading. Compared to the visual display units used in the previous few decades, these more recent electronic displays allow for good and comfortable reading, even for extended periods of time.

Basically if you already browse 4chan for the amount that you do, you basically got tricked by a myth thats been disproven since 2012. As you know, the contrast ratio makes the image quality poorer, so in fact eink screens cause eyestrain. Yet so many still buy them despite them being worst for your eyes. eye-toddlers

WHY the fuck do modern displays still have PWM flicker?

>causes eyestrain
>causes headaches and migraines
>essentially staring into a mini strobe light for hours a day

this technology is even in the most recent phones for fucks sake
>iPhone 11 Pro has it

>suddenly screen is pleasant to look at and doesn't strain eyes anymore
>pixel clock slightly higher but still well within the specs for hdmi monitor cable bandwidth which tops out at 165MHz
when did you realize gpu makers hid the number of the beast in your monitor timings to blind you and bind you to evil?

I've been a maid for 3 weeks, at first I was quite scared but then I got used to having my ass rammed by HIV ridden niggers daily and now I'm as happy as I could ever be.

How long have (you) been a maid anon ?

Maid Research: A Pi Based One Time Pad for Maids?

Could this work? Or does it have some big weaknesses I am not seeing?

This system eliminates the possibility of MITM attacks, because you didn't exchange keys over the network.

>If you're meeting up in person why would you even exchange information using a digital medium.
Some information is inherently, or only digital. Imagine you have several gigabytes of footage from a warzone. Yes, theoretically that could be a physical tape, but probably it is a digital video shot from somebody's phone or possibly footage shot from a weapons system itself (like that helicopter that killed all those Reuters employees). So the information is digital.

>Why not bring the digital data with you on a physical device and just give the device?
Imagine you bring the device. Now you have the device and then a bunch of guys with guns jump out of the bushes and confiscate your device. You have simultaneously failed to transfer the data and lost control of it.

Worse, now the data, and the information needed to decipher it have been brought together in a place where you didn't want deciphering to happen, under the command of people you didn't want snooping the data.

Using Pi instead of generating new random data each time keeps you from having to transmit the OTP key, which is nice because OTP keys are the same length as the data being enciphered.

Calls without cellular or WiFi

No.101820474 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
So I had left a friend’s house where I was on his WiFi. Had my cellular turned off completely and WiFi only. I eventually left his house forgetting I had cellular off still. As I was heading down the road I called my niece to catch up with her on some family issues. We talked for a good 30 mins heading down the interstate where there is no WiFi. My phone basically connected with NO WiFi and NO cellular on. I’m baffled at HOW. It wasn’t until some iMessages I sent were coming back as not being able to send and all my messages were trying to be sent in green bubbles (sms). How did my phone connect to make calls? Does it have some thing to do with WiFi-calling enabled?

Bluepill me on SimpleX. Why should I use it over Session or Signal? In depth comparisons and schizo rants are welcome and appreciated
