It’s nice over here, it’s not the same 15 questions across subs every 3 days. It’s not the same recycled stories ad nauseam. And, there’s more Gowron.

In addition to all the GrapheneOS recommendations, there are also faraday bags. Drop the phone in while at home or wherever.

This man likely wants to be president, but cannot, so he’s riding the Trump train instead. As such, I suspect you can find him bending on free speech and leaning into incitement of more Jan 6 treason quite a bit in regards to that personal motive.

Wait. Why does it have ads? Aren’t you paying them for an ad free experience? If not, what’s the point?

GrapheneOS. Faraday bags. Depends on you and how far you want to take it. And how much you like and rely on dynamic maps.

It’s cool when these companies get subpoenaed. Then we all know exactly what data they keep.

Proton had a recent subpeona they had to honor. All the data they had was yes, the dude has an email here. But no content. Granted, if you’re exchanging with a gmail account, it’s moot, for those exchanges anyway.

This is really simple. Use Signal or WIRE. Proton or maybe Tutanota for email.

Avoid garbage like Telegram and FB Messenger. Discord as well.

Both are meh compared to home. Dough is flour water yeast. Touch of corn meal for roll out. Add time. That’s it. Cheap and easy.

Reclaim the Pizza Hut crust of 30 years ago by preheating a #8 or larger iron skillet with oil in it, carefully dropping in your rolled out crust, making sure it has a nice edge, and building your pizza. And your crust won’t taste as sugary as subway bread.

You have money to spare, pizza oven for the thin crust.

Dominos is better these days if you have to choose.

No. Memmy + Apple. I can put up to 5 spaces between paragraphs and I’ll still get what looks like a 1.2 space between paragraphs every time.

Dealing with PC lemmy is work so I stick with the app on the phone.

Spaces between paragraphs don’t really show on Memmy and walls of text suck.

Whatever works, I’ll try it.

In the kids case, that’s a staffing issue. Most lockdown mental health facilities have a tech/CNA whose sole job it is to walk around and log the location and state of every patient every 9-15min, depending on policy. In addition to the techs/CNAs who herd everyone to group, meals, and all the rest. In addition to mental health staff that run the groups. In addition to nurses who do meds and assessments. In addition to “orderlies”, not big men in white like in movies, who tackle people these days, but people with intense training in deescalation.

.

In the elder case, that is often a staffing issue. If it’s day shift and you have more than 6 residents assigned to you, that’s a staffing and/or state level regulation issue. If it’s evening shift and you have more than 8 residents assigned to you, that’s a staffing and/or state regulation issue. But yes, declining mental health (dementia) and brain deterioration (Alzheimer’s) is part of elder care. Sometimes it’s the sole reason they’re placed in a home, because that decline in brain capacity requires 24h care.

.

A lot of health care jobs would be absolutely ok if they were actually safe for both patients and staff. But corporate greed often doesn’t allow for that.

Staffing matters. And it often will be ignored until the state mandates a law that requires the corporate owners to do better.

This is hard to look at. I thought our side of the ocean was dystopian. So you get health care, but no private texting.

WIRE or Signal. Granted, convincing your people to move with you is like trying to get an act of Congress in play.

I think they’re shocked when people don’t believe the shit they’re trying to peddle. Trump more so because he thinks he’s the best salesman.

It’s kinda like this. Say you lead the most boring, law abiding, square life, top 20% of the bell curve in that zone.

Would you want strangers in your house, even if they couldn’t technically touch or take anything? Would you want them in your spouse’s closet? Your kid’s room? Looking in your fridge?

Creepy and “hell no”, right?

That’s what privacy is about. The right to lock your door against strangers snooping.

Working in corrections requires NDA signatures. You’re not going to get much.

Edit: referencing The States

People are already annoyed at base that they need any 2FA at all and don’t want to deal with more info. They just tune out.

I’m not in IT but I followed the Michael Bazzell podcast until he disappeared. Guy was a bit paranoid but there was great info there. My understanding was browser saving passwords isn’t secure, that those passwords are open to scraping from bad players. Ofc I can’t reference this because the entire body of over 300 podcasts disappeared with him.

Agree on Bitwarden and such.

My elderly parent had this happen. Hobby is photography. Still used CS5. Boom, gone. Adobe wanted to sell a subscription plan when they called to figure out what happened, which just made them mad.

But now they’re sad and not engaging their hobby because they no longer have CS5.

Too bad I can’t get adobe on abuse of the elderly for this shit.
