    the inability to be able to rent it at a profit usually. If they don’t think they can get money out of it, they won’t want to. If the economy hits a point where the housing market collapses, chances are they aren’t going to want to risk the buy in knowing that they likely won’t be able to sell for equal amount.

    Or the much faster method: the “scary” government regulating it







  • It looks like that is how they’re currently implementing it, they are sending to the providers as well but this is how they’re doing it with the app itself currently. So you are correct if you’re using anything that isn’t Google messages currently it doesn’t do anything

    I’m expecting this technology to eventually evolve to have a setting where it detects if the person you’re sending to is currently on a technology that supports it and will warn you, like how the RCS system currently Works


  • I have an unpopular opinion in this it seems.

    Like to me it’s an obvious feature, the ability to delete after sending is standard on every other IM style tech out there. It makes sense RCS will have it as well.

    Just from a comvienence point of view it would be amazing to have. Talked to them in person? OK I’ll delete this since o longer needed. Sent the wrong item? I’ll just delete it. Autocorrect fucked up and sent something atrocious to your significant other? Believe it or not, delete and try again.

    Sure it could have issues with preserving court evidence but, they could also just screenshot or have something that logs messages.

    Also looking at the implementation it looks like it’s still going to show evidence that something was deleted much like how Facebook has it, where it says a message was deleted so it can still be used as this is where the evidence was, but they deleted it.

    And judging by the fallback message shown, it’s also entirely possible that it will be a setting much like how the RCS setting is, where you can toggle if it deletes or not.







  • I did a little research on this, and this is insane. The current legal code (8 USC 1201(i)) states

    After the issuance of a visa or other documentation to any alien, the consular officer or the Secretary of State may at any time, in his discretion, revoke such visa or other documentation.

    and to top it off, it also contains at the end

    There shall be no means of judicial review (including review pursuant to section 2241 of title 28 or any other habeas corpus provision, and sections 1361 and 1651 of such title) of a revocation under this subsection, except in the context of a removal proceeding if such revocation provides the sole ground for removal under section 1227(a)(1)(B) of this title.

    This sounds like it means that if there is any type of other thing happening (such as an accusation that you broke the law or are here illegally), they can just say “ok visa revoked get out” with very limited possibility to a legal review

    I can understand that being the case for actual criminals but, that seems super extreme.

    Being said though, 9 FAM 403.11 is the declassified guidelines that it seems officials are supposed to use, and those state:

    • (1) Unavailable
    • (2) (U) The individual is not eligible for the visa classification (this includes ineligibility under INA 214(b));
    • (3) (U) The visa has been physically removed from the passport in which it was issued; or
    • (4) (U) The individual is subject to an IDENT Watchlist record in System Messages for an arrest or conviction of driving under the influence, driving while intoxicated, or similar arrests/convictions (DUI) that occurred within the previous five years, pursuant to 9 FAM 403.11-5(B) paragraph c, below.

    Overall, that’s fucked.
