> I picked Whatsapp but it ended up using my own account! So it's absolutely too dangerous. We are supposed to create a separate account but with which phone number? I only have one.

You're joking right?


What would the joke be? I haven't touched OpenClaw and probably won't. I use WhatsApp lightly, but it seems like it requires a distinct phone number, used as an account identifier. So for the benefit of those of us not immersed in this scene, could you elaborate?


Presumably they're referring to the general ease of obtaining a second phone number. I think the bigger issue could be making a second Whatsapp account though. WhatsApp does not want you having multiple accounts. Last I checked there's no in-app option to log out on Android other than to delete your account


nope, they recommend creating a separate whatsapp account. but fall short of saying you need a separate number (and subscription)


Yeah no.


And I thought here in Argentina we had the most retard politicians that try to control anything in their eyes reach...


It's fun until they ask for a face or ID scan.


I’m pretty sure that’s only for channels marked nsfw, which are gated today anyway (with a simple prompt, but I just click off because I’m not there for nsfw).



Yeah good fucking luck with that. Time for the "discord alternatives" search on Google.


Opened the game, picked a car and immediately went over the Hare Krishnas. Fucking classic, I remember playing this game at school somehow, then played GTA2 until my eyes bled, amazing games.


Goranga!


I kinda feel the same way, don't get me wrong, I'm a developer at soul level, I absolutely love programming, but I love more getting shit done, automating things, taking the human out of the equation and putting the computer to do it, AI lets me do that. I work in cybersecurity as a WAF admin, my job is 100% that, but I'm also the only developer so anything that needs to be scripted or developed I get to do it. One week I created 4 different scripts with Gemini Canvas to automate some tedious work, it took my I don't know, 3 hours? Instead of 1 or 2 weeks? Yeah sign me in.


All your "moral" comments don't matter, I live in Argentina and the ABSURD amount of venezuelans that migrated here in the last 10/15 years is nothing you'll ever see. I have 3 venezuelan friends here and a couple more that I only know (one is an Uber I once took and have a couple neighbors in the building), all were able to escape the dictatorship and left their family there, I just can't express with words the JOY I saw in their statuses from WhatsApp and Instagram today when the door to maybe go back to their country finally opened.

One of my friends is my motorcycle mechanic, met him in 2015 when I bought my first KTM, still my mechanic to this day. A lot of the bike services I stayed with him talking while he worked, I listened to a lot of his stories from back in the day, why he had to run, why his family stayed, how he had to send money to them to eat and some other horror stories.

In the name of my friends, if you think what happened today is bad, you can respectfully go fuck yourself.


Startups should check the internet before naming them after tools like Graphite for monitoring https://graphiteapp.org/.


Graphite should check the dictionary before naming itself after a soft, black, lustrous form of carbon.

Yeah well at least the OG graphite is not software.


Sure, but if the concern is googling "graphite" and finding results that aren't the Graphite you're looking for, it's the same problem. There will always be more results for graphite, the mineral than graphite, the enterprise-ready monitoring tool.

If that's not the concern, then what's the big deal?


The number of tools with this name is shocking
