    If you make a commercial product that allows someone to remotely access video, audio, or location data from a device, I am begging you to threat model for domestic abuse BEFORE YOU SHIP YOUR GODDAMN PRODUCT.

    @lzg I had a project I was avoiding all week and my house is so clean.

    Me: I am in great shape. I do extremely difficult strength and flexibility training several feet up in the air five days a week.

    Also me: I pulled a muscle in my back casually moving a chair.

    Rajat Khare wants you to know that "he did not engage in conspiracy to or complicity in murder." Ooooookay.

    An additional and unexpected downside of having a DJ move in next door is that he is apparently quite deaf and communicates with his partner largely by yelling at the top of his lungs across the apartment.

    Did I mention that the data broker industry must be destroyed? Because yeah.

    Avast told customers its products would prevent online tracking, then they sold their browsing data to data brokers. Now the FTC is making them pay $16.5 million.

    Signal has finally introduced usernames so you can use it without giving out your phone number. This is the number one feature I have seen prevent people from using Signal for many years and I’m happy it’s here!

    In infosec, probably the only thing worse than being completely incompetent is learning that your incompetence has come to the attention of @briankrebs.

    This is some of the most staggering incompetence I have ever seen.

    U.S. Internet Corp business unit Securence promises filtered, secure email to businesses, schools, and govt agencies, but actually leaves all mail unencrypted on the open web for a completely unknown amount of time.

    I have decided that the only way that I can write this CV is to pretend that a man has just condescended to me on the internet regarding a professional matter. This will bring me the rage I need to channel in order to recite my qualifications.

    @kkeller I got some words on the page, which is more than I had before.

    It turns out that the most debilitating words in the English language are "Please write a brief summary of your achievements."

    One of the things that made Twitter bearable for all of those years was turning off notifications for anyone I didn't follow. I think that in order to achieve the equivalent level of mental Zen on Mastodon, I will need to find a way to make sure I don't see replies from people I don't follow unless I go deep into a menu somewhere.

    This "premiere AI" conference has 29 speakers on their speaker page, one of which is a woman. I thought there might be two women speaking, but it turns out that one of them is a robot.

    I don't understand why brick and mortal clothing stores are dying. Am I the only person who wants to try things on before I buy them? Sizing for women's clothing is crafted entirely from lies. I just bought a size 8 top from a brand, which fit perfectly, and had to return a pair of size 2 pants from them because they were too big.

    @thomas_decker I do not buy fast fashion. One of the reasons I want to try things on before I buy them is that I am spending more on one piece of clothing than most TikTokers spend on their entire haul. I want clothes that fit and I want the quality of the materials and workmanship to be high, so that I will not have to buy a replacement for many years to come.

    @Vrimj @tess When I was a shape that was particularly hard to fit, I ordered from eShakti, but the quality of their fabrics was really low.

    @agenderfox @danmcd @comicsbyxan @ninsiana0 I would like to spend all of my time shopping with fae and Owl House-style witches.
