I have friends and a family who care about me, and I’ve been listening to one of my new favorite podcasts, “You’re Wrong About”.

That’s about all that’s getting me through life right now.

I’ve been using a SimpleLogin alias on Patreon for a while and have never been flagged, so there’s that.

To put it in a way that’s slightly less genteel than the other posters, let me tell you my motto that I live by as someone with multiple mental illnesses:

Mental illness is no excuse for being an asshole.

It says in the article.

Law enforcement use CSS to pinpoint the location of phones often with greater accuracy than other techniques such as cell site location information (CSLI) and without needing to involve the phone company at all. CSS can also log International Mobile Subscriber Identifiers (IMSI numbers) unique to each SIM card, or hardware serial numbers (IMEIs) of all of the mobile devices within a given area. Some CSS may have advanced features allowing law enforcement to intercept communications in some circumstances.

Looks like they aren’t using “IMSI catcher” because it only covers one of the uses of those devices.

Just in case anyone didn’t feel like reading the article, here’s the last (and imo most important) paragraph:

However, without changing the DMCA, we can’t expect to see real, lasting change in this space. Doctorow said as much to me: “What we really need to do is get rid of DMCA 1201, that law that makes it a crime to format shift your media…it’s the same law that stops farmers from fixing their tractors, blocks independent mechanics from fixing your car, stops rivals from setting up alternative app stores for phones and games consoles…this law is a menace!”

Not real, but certainly creative.

So… straight hair gets greasier the longer it goes without being washed, right? There lots of reasons for that, a few being brushing, combing, running your fingers through it, or just the oil running down it. Well, the curlier your hair is, the harder those things are to do. In fact, oil often won’t run down the strands at all on very curly hair, so you’ll be left with an oily scalp and increasingly dry hair. Shampoo is inherently oil stripping, and if you put it on curly hair that’s already lacks oil, you’ll just make it even more frizzy and awful. Hence, a lot of people with curly hair forego shampoo.

Dammit, I lost the game.

I’m like 80% sure this person is a troll.

I’ve actually seen a bunch of people recommend and cite this blog; the person running it knows their shit.

Surprised nobody mentioned “motherlode”.

Something like 50k simoleons in The Sims 2. Absolutely essential to any save file.

If it cannot break out of its shell, the chick will die without being born. We are the chick, the world is our egg. If we don’t crack the world’s shell, we will die without being born. Smash the world’s shell, for the revolution of the world!

I like saying “we’ll burn that bridge when we come to it”.

Most people don’t catch it.

This is why I switched to using Migadu as my email provider with my own URL. They make no qualms about saying email is inherently insecure, but they’re cheap, have great customer service, and they’re independent.
