Here's the world's first pilot's watch
Made by Louis Cartier for his friend Alberto Santos-Dumont, who was also the first person to fly a plane without wind- or hill-assisted bullshit
It's also credited with being one of the timepieces that first popularised wristwatches for men, previously the wristwatch was classed as a feminine piece of jewellery with men wearing pocket watches

Given the lead dev of Exodus Privacy apparently hasn't heard of nmap (source: https://mastodon.social/@U039b/102604122863011626 ) I'd take anything that organisation says about anything with a boatload of salt
@Jo @InspectorCaracal probably, it's quite funny
@maple love you too bun 🧡

"BUT I KNOW WHERE IT IS"
"...mate, we could put it in the middle of times square and nobody would get in without being authorised"
"BUT I KNOW WHERE THE DOOR IS! PEOPLE CAN GET IN!"
