If a website you’re using uses SMS for 2FA, then you seriously need to switch companies.

The country currently conducting a genocide, having been created after their religious siblings were genocided… And you’re asking how they get away with… software…

Talk about asking the wrong questions.

Judge asks the hypernuclear question: “Have you tried NOT catering to Nazi’s and racists?”

1. Electoral reform, at all levels. Start with municipal governments by offering tax dollars to help with the transition and to educate citizens. Once a municipality has successfully held their first election under the new system, they get some more money to continue their education plans, then move up to provincial, federal, etc.

2. Boost healthcare. The state of all healthcare systems is shameful. Bonus transfer payments for strengthening the healthcare system with higher wages and benefits, lower wait times, more equal access to care, and fewer people without family doctors.

3. Get serious on the environment. Nothing else matters once you can’t drink the water and breathe the air. Stop subsidizing carbon, collect carbon taxes, and direct the collected money back to individuals. Big rebates for energy efficiency projects, electric cars & charging.

4. Kickstart housing. It’s not rocket surgery that cities and suburbs need higher density housing, with accessible public transit nearby.

That’s just off the top of my head…

In related news, Twitter is up to 80% nazi billionaire despot disinformation bots now. Congratulations!

My electric car was manufactured ONCE. It’s powered by 99% green power (hydroelectric). It burns no gas/diesel, requires no oil changes. I intend on keeping it for 15+ years (my last vehicle got to 16 years before the electrical system fried).

It is better by literally every measure short of walking everywhere.

Just download Signal. Cross platform, verifably E2E, and verifiably no data collected by Open Whisper (as per their submission in a lawsuit). Also, one of the authors/architects of Signal occasionally trolls the companies that provide mobile spyware.

I got one of these a few weeks ago and reported it to everyone involved. (Netblock owners where the spam originated, domain registrars, alerted YouPorn…) It’s written to sound halfway legitimate, and I’m sure for anyone who’s ever let themselves be videotaped while banging, this might cause enough anxiety to be spurred into action.

As always, tell your friends and family about this sort of nonsense, and to just ignore it.

As a little more background, the letter ‘X’ can be pronounced as “sh” in a lot of languages, turning tweets into ‘zits’ or ‘shits’. I like ‘Xitter’ as a pejorative, pronounced ‘Shitter’.

The problem is the CPU effort it takes to produce 100 Xits for your timeline, then search that list for everyone on your blocklist, remove those Xits, then possibly go back to the suggestion API to get more since there are only 40 Xits left, etc. etc. is cost prohibitive… Especially when you have millions of users with thousands of accounts on their blocklists.

Total newb question – don’t these CPUs support multiple clock speeds? You could set it high on install in preparation for compiling a bunch of software, then once you’re done, knock it down to 50% or less of the maximum to add longevity?

Only because my GF won’t get me off first.
