Okay, now I'm pissed.

Just got a phone call from an unfamiliar number. It's in the same NPA-NXX as my mom's hospital, and she just had another surgery (her chest tube was removed), so I picked up.

I then heard my mom's voice - "Hello?"

Then the credit card spammer's recording cut in.

Fuckers are correlating numbers and voices to get people to pick up. They probably recorded me saying "Hi, mom?" if and when they call her.

i have a scanner radio sitting in my office, on and scanning 24/7. some EMTs were reading someone's full PII over the air unencrypted (id number, name, address, date of birth, et c) and my partner was astounded to hear it.

turns out that most normal people have absolutely no training whatsoever in the protection of PII.

turn that question around: why would you want to run a full-featured virtual machine in a networked document viewer

FOSS your code. Then it cannot be stolen.

@r000t and people will patch it for you

btw, it remains me publiccode.eu

Whoever runs fediblock.org:

I'm trying to standardize blocklists. (yes I know, me of all people, etc.) My client uses this standard, and I believe it's currently the only client that supports lists of any kind. Please also export your list as a flat text file in this format...

ActorURIorInstance<space>reason\n

example:

https://domain.tld/ Allows some bad thing
https://anotherdomain.tld/users/user02 Did some bad thing

Dead simple. Client interprets everything after the first space as a comment. User can subscribe to any number of lists.

Boosts welcome, but whoever runs fediblock.org definitely blocks me, so straight up copying and pasting this is preferred. Open standards matter. I'll happily reduce my own audience to make it happen.

@KitsuneAlicia
Hold on... rOS has a complete system emulator; let's load Alicia into it and sim the conversation...

"this system is so horrible it's so terrible what can I do to fix it?"

"Vote."

"But neither guy is promising to give people who agree with me the ability to censor, subjugate, jail, torture, or kill people who don't."

"then I guess you aren't too interested in fixing it, good job letting perfect become the enemy of good"

"Well actually the power dynamics of the social construct relative to the crypto-fascism and allochiset binary privilege, clearly show the inherent inequalities in colonial cisnormativity, and thus the multiple-conciousness objectivity of microinvalidations and settler fragility in the core of value-neutral gender equilibrium for post-modern metanormatove matrix of domination and intercorporeality through..."

And that's why I don't like webdevs
