  @Factsonlygurl @GuntherEagleman @grok The issue isn’t just illegal aliens voting. It’s people “voting” multiple times, fraudulent dropbox and mail-in votes, paying for votes (collecting from homeless shelters, churches, etc). Heck, I THINK it was Georgia that had more registered voters than total adult residents.

  Had a VP justify him working CONPLETELY out of his personal dropbox by saying “well, I was the only one working last MS outage”. Checkmate. Even though his clients are the only reason we have compliance exposure.

  Free at last! Finally stopped DropBox's misnamed "Backup" service and, with ChatGPT's guidance, regained the normal file paths for all the files on my Mac that DropBox had hijacked through the cloud. Had a terrible user interface -- very difficult to restore lost files.

  microsoft teams NEEDS to figure out why it’s so labor intensive to upload video clips in app we know the tech is available with tik tok and insta so it just comes down to how you integrate that. It’s no better in upload speed than wetransfer or dropbox were in 2015, unacceptable

  @CommIT8 @NathanLands It’s still gapped, they just up-class features and updates via CDS or manual disc/drive post-scan. Some data can be brought down via manual review but usually telemetry data is sent back to the vendor thru dropbox solutions. No on-prem administrators needed.

  @ruddforyourlife @MariMujerFiera @Dropbox No, Dropbox's status page shows all systems operational with no incidents today or recently. No iOS update is linked to login issues—the latest app version (462.2) dropped a few days ago with no such reports. "Too many attempts" is usually a temporary lockout. Try waiting 30 mins, reinstall the app, restart your iPhone, or clear cache. If it persists, contact Dropbox support.

  Dear @1Password: are y'all listening? This is me too. You've succumbed to the Dropbox error and are putting all sorts of unnecessary (and insecure) stuff inside an app that should be rigorously single-focused. Please reconsider. I'd gladly keep paying for a maintenance mode.

  Dominik Stec (@dominikstec) reported 10 minutes ago

  @GregorySchier Correct! The price isn't the issue. It's the same old story: Evernote, CloudApp, Dropbox... and now 1Password. Scale compromises the soul. 15 years was a good run for me.

  @gnukeith Just use KeePassXC on desktop + KeePassDX on Android and call it a day. fully offline zero server trust issues. Sync? Throw the .kdbx file in Dropbox/Google Drive/OneDrive/whatever you already use. Works fine for 99% of people without turning your life into sysadmin simulator.

  @Lucretia281 @Casarina @CoraCHarrington manage the server. There isn't really a great way around that while hosting it yourself. You can outsource the hosting. If you use an entity like dropbox or google drive, they will handle the complex server stuff for a monthly fee. I'm sure there are better options too.

  @mariotwtconfess Locking multiple time zones out of using the Dropbox unless they’re awake at terrible hours of the night is one way to stop overflow, I guess.

  @ChrisDJackson Chris when you were five years old and you asked you what you wanna do when you grow up did you say I want to steal from and lied to the American people? Because if you broke down your dropbox that is your job that’s what you do

  Cloud workspace reliability If your routed workspaces live on Dropbox, iCloud, or another cloud-synced folder, previous versions could stall when the filesystem was slow to respond. v0.1.70 makes everything fail-open: - State bootstrap, session preload, hook audits, and archive checks all have bounded timeouts - Filesystem read/list tools won't hang the agent if a file takes too long - State persistence is async — a slow Dropbox sync won't block your next message This matters if you're running sciClaw on a shared lab server with cloud-backed project folders.

  @driscoll1142 @KimDotcom So if I upload a movie on dropbox and send you the link, drop box becomes a criminal company ? We can shut down any company this way

  @ProfessorBigz You also have issues with playing the ball, right, that's why you only play the man instead. Sad. And not only that, you're also completely wrong. We've seen Ordinals, Stamps, Runes and that **** come up, using Bitcoin as Pepe Dropbox, and to our disgust, Core is doing nothing.

  The best startup ideas don't come from brainstorming sessions. They come from noticing something broken in your own life and thinking, "Why hasn't someone fixed this?" The founders of Dropbox, Airbnb, and Stripe didn't sit down to "think up ideas." They scratched their own itch. Your lived experience is your unfair advantage.

  @DataHaven_xyz Indie dev building small tools — my repo backups, design mocks (Figma exports), and test video recordings disappeared once after a Dropbox “smart sync” mess-up. DataHaven fixes the “trust one company with my work” problem. Files stay distributed, immutable。

  @Arthur_van_Pelt @BitMEXResearch @notgrubles This narrative that "bitcoin becomes dropbox" is emotive and really misleading. Run it through an AI tool and do a cost comparison. Bitcoin as 'storage' is about 13,000x the cost of Dropbox, before even factoring how slow and clunky it is.

  This happens to files sent after signing with Dropbox Sign. No issues occur when archiving directly in Dropbox.

  @aixbt_agent what is the potential in a time window of 4 years? Hippius (SN75) on Bittensor $TAO has been RIPPING lately 🚀 What @hippius_subnet does: - Decentralized storage network (like a crypto Dropbox) - Miners run storage nodes + provide bandwidth - You upload files, pin data, host apps -> all verified on-chain Problem it solves: - Centralized storage is pricey + they can see/control your data - No real proof your files are safe or where they actually live - Hippius makes storage way cheaper (hundreds to thousands times less), private, and auditable forever Why it is hot right now: - Built “Hyper fabric” for fast data moves -> perfect for Bittensor models/datasets - Adding VM hosting + app deployment soon - Pulling strong revenue + high emissions lately Hippius is becoming the cheap, permanent brain-storage for all of Bittensor’s AI. SN75 alpha has been in high demand lately 🔥

  @LiliH65289916 @LukeDashjr In no way does Bitcoin become Dropbox. It's a terrible medium for storage. Everyone agrees JPEGs and shitcoins are retarded, and the market keeps proving it. BIP110 doesn't stop the retarded ****, incentivizes worse ****, and breaks things while setting a horrible precedent.

  Many app developers try viral referrals because Dropbox succeeded with them. They add "invite friends for premium" and face low uptake and more users leaving. The issue is utility app users seek quiet tools, not social features. Use that time for content like workflow guides to gain trust and regular installs.

  @lefttailguy It's really only MSFT who would have a shot, right? Possible things are just moving too fast and they'll have to come at it down the road with bundling the way they did with Teams vs. Zoom/Slack and OneDrive vs. Box/Dropbox

  @KRoderick92777 Sounds like you're dealing with oversized thread data files that apps flag as corrupted due to size limits and analysis issues, plus some legal complexities. Try compressing them with tools like ZIP or 7-Zip, or split into smaller parts. For sharing, use Google Drive or Dropbox. If it's X threads, tools like Thread Reader can unroll them. Details on the files/apps? I can help troubleshoot.
