@tokyo_0 Why is SMS verification not reliable?

@tokyo_0 when you get access to the account, enable passkeys. But I noticed they currently only support them on iOS. https://help.twitter.com/en/managing-your-account/how-to-use-passkey

@tokyo_0 US needs a war for its domestic politics. :-(

@tokyo_0 One way is to lobby your own government and public institutions to be in the fediverse. Preferably not via threads. Europe is doing so, and I saw a petition going around for Canadian government too. Govts are the only heavy weights that can stand up to tech giants.

@tokyo_0 Maybe the solution is to not "block" threads but only "limit" them. I believe you are on an instance that has "blocked" threads.net

Sometimes news moves so fast that I have to un-bookmark the articles I had been saving to read over the weekend.

@nitin Really? How many have I missed? Where can you buy them?

@tokyo_0 Wise has been wonderful for me. I had heard about the difficulties people faced earlier but Wise has made them all in the past.

@thomasfuchs oops. The new energy efficient models are really expensive. What would you be prioritizing when you buy a new dishwasher?

I come from a country that doesn’t use one so I don’t know which factors are more important

@mmasnick I suppose folks would be also asking for techdirt to use an activitypub plugin. That would satisfy me.

@bcantrill @nikclayton

dtrace seemed like magic when it was introduced. I felt so empowered debugging issues without source code. I think I even managed to solve a few bugs.

@RyunoKi @helge @apps @tokyo_0

Germany has spotty connectivity?!

@evan Only that spring break here is 3 weeks at end of April / early May.

@thomasfuchs All of these features are on the Mastodon public roadmap

@evan when you have done it once and left behind your original social circle, it is easier to do it again.

I suppose it is also easy for folks who move cities for their career.

@thomasfuchs I see. I think the option to block the whole domain is also present in Toot! app. But I don’t see it in Ivory. A very powerful tool … I hope they ask for multiple confirmations in the apps.

@thomasfuchs How did you block the whole domain? I mean which UX / app?

@evan Everyone should live near a large water body. It is incredibly calming.

It is clear that the gig economy companies aren’t not doing anything to prevent these attacks on their “employees”. They have to be held responsible.

The bigger problem, of course, is that in #India there is general acceptance to treat minorities and people from oppressed castes horribly.
