absolutely.

@inthehands

i'm going with vance was a desperation move on orban's part to lift him up so 'despite" as cope from the right

@inthehands

It’s also, imo, absurd to think that a date on a calendar all of a sudden makes someone impervious to the dangers of social media.

If you want to protect anyone, then protect everyone.

And keep an eye on what social network giants are spending their lobbying money on - a lot goes to age-gating.

@inthehands

not sure I'm bothered either way

@skinnylatte

so obviously no anonymous option then - would be useful from a disease tracking perspective, but no effing way it needs to be tracked to inidviduals

@dalias

congrats(?)

@dalias

they don't even need to stick

@dalias

sounds like these people are just selling snake oil and bullshit - and realized they have a customer base regardless of sanity (or perhaps in spite of sanity)

@inthehands

has she mentioned anything about the Epstein files? or as silent about that as I think she's been.

she's not about protecting anyone, just hating on a few

@skinnylatte

"suckers and losers"

@dalias

Sure. Though I have yet to see the distinction made.

Also, my cheap instance could have been turned into a "privacy" VPN with 2 lines of code and cost no more than it already did.

@skinnylatte

i do have a piece of commercial only runs on windows professional software that requires locally install excel for one small feature to work. at least I don't need the cloud crap anywhere near the locked down windows VM.

and i only use that piece of commercial software when clients pay for me to use it. the FOSS alternatives do the job surprisingly well, and the only "innovations" the commercial app has are cloud features irrelevant to the core function of the software.

@thomasfuchs

My dad had one of those from work.

Played "Need for Speed" on it. Graphics weren't great but did the job!

@thomasfuchs

okay but is it being rendered by pistols at dawn?

@inthehands

a murder is what gets trump? after everything else? dunno, wish it were true but won't be holding my breath.

killing Ms Idaho - that'd have more impact than epstein.

@inthehands

yea a little oops on that vis-a-vis oil - Canada is doing that already and we're the largest supply of "foreign" oil to the US - we produce the same heavy crude Venezuela does and previously supplied US refineries with, until relations between the US and Venezuela soured whenever it was.

trump picked a trade war with us and it's not going well for the US. We're already pushing back, and we're not backing down.

boycotts work. we're doing just fine without.

@skinnylatte

these are pretty good too (and easy to shake up the recipe too)

@skinnylatte

regular or jumbo?

@inthehands

the bell curve is still round at the top

@skinnylatte

looks like she may be scheming to end some of your enemies in a bond villain kind of way.
