nah, I'm much safer with keepass and bitwarden, more than with a company that could sell my passwords to the highest bidder. Also, since when did you begin broadcasting ads? lol


Thinking I should pull in a few other creators to do something soon. Hmmm.

I've mentioned a few times I'm available to chat with others, but still @BrodieOnLinux is the only one to invite me ๐Ÿ˜…

oh it's the exact same thing that happened to Corridor and is not only the main LTT also tech linked has the crypto scam live

Maybe that'll bring enough public scrutiny for them to fix their 2fa so that 2fa method can't be changed before performing 2fa auth. Most of these channel bounties would be worthless since the hackers would only be able to futz with the account password but not the 2fa, making it useless to sell off to 3rd parties.

The way it is now they can change whatever they want using only a stolen token session via malware.




RIP @LinusTech someone clicked an email they shouldn't have

eh theyโ€™re a huge enough channel, theyโ€™ll get it back within a couple days

#mozilla are a lost #NGO that has been pouring funding and focus down a hole the last 10 years. It's a problem and when you talk to them about this you find out they can be prats as well.

Ben Barres was a trailblazing transgender neurobiologist who promoted equity & diversity.

His pioneering research on glial cells changed science & he became the 1st #trans person admitted into the National Academies of Science.

Barres was also a strong advocate for women, early career scientists & the #LGBTQ+ community at a time when few people openly discussed gender identity.

He also gained academic privilege becoming a man when transgender women lost privilege transitioning to woman. Just saying.

Really interesting piece on #Africa rediscovering its #Vegan heritage. So much food in Africa (and elsewhere) is traditionally largely #plantbased - no dairy and v little meat and eggs. Red #PalmOil (fat, pro vit a and e), greens (vit, protein) and yam (carbs) is a classic #Nigerian combination and nutritionally balanced. If i ever finish my palm oil book you can read more there! ๐Ÿ˜Š

There are a lot of YouTube videos about this, especially wasting their time. But today, they're not paying for the calls, so it's wasting your time and theirs. There was a voicemail system that imitated a doddering senior, I can't recall the name. It just replied in non-sequitor phrases after any silence on the other end.

On a more personal note - Sadko - the author of this one-of-a-kind toolset - is stuck in Russia, being under a constant threat of getting raided by Police and forced to go to war he's fully opposed to. I'm not a cryptocurrency enthusiast, but I guess this is one of the few good uses for the technology (he's not able to receive donations any other way) - so if you're looking for someone to help out, - I think Sadko is a great candidate ๐Ÿ˜€
