    Every couple months I learn of another way the us government interacts with ‘undocumented’ migrants. I find it supremely silly that these people have identification numbers, pay taxes, are counted for the census and participate in elections but they’re still referred to as ‘undocumented’?? They clearly are documented, wtf does ‘undocumented’ mean then?

    How is the government getting taxes from people it doesn’t know exist?? I thought you had to file your taxes yourself in America, why or how would the migrants even do that? Or if the employer is doing that, who do they say they are doing it for??

    It’s really hard to follow your train of thought. Bluetooth isn’t a piece of metal in your phone. It uses the same antenna your phone needs for its other wireless connections and it’s also driven by the same modem. Compared to an audio jack its impact is miniscule. The demand for Bluetooth wasn’t created in 2016, it predates smartphones. There were countless wireless earphones before 2016 and they mostly weren’t even made by phone companies. Apple removing the headphone jack wasn’t ‘false advertising’, it was very well publicised.

    Yes, phone companies removed the headphone jack from their phones to drive the sales of their own earphones. Yes, Google collects lots of data about you. But interpolating these to “Google wanted people to keep Bluetooth on for its spy network” is a far fetched conspiracy

    You know bluetooth doesn’t need to be turned on in the settings for your phone to scan for devices right? Google doesn’t need to trick you with earphones to turn it on. Why do these conspiracy theories always involve the vampire politely asking to come into your home anyways?

    Had horrible audio quality both inherently and due to the constant cable dangling noise, didn’t stay in the ear due to the cables’ weight pulling them down, didn’t last long due to the cables getting tangled while carrying, you couldn’t wear in bed or during sports or with large coats due to the cables, you couldn’t move away from your phone due to the cable length or if you forgot they yanked your phone off the table…






  • I don’t know much about networking but that page seems to be about someone else setting up a dhcp server without the knowledge of the administrators or the users. In op’s case the concerns about mitm attacks don’t apply and the other concerns sound like problems that could arise in cases of misconfiguration or if the users aren’t aware they’re connected to a different network. I also couldn’t see anything about it affecting the main network’s performance
