  I wholeheartedly agree the White House is full of morons. I was just saying that Signal is a solid app to me to securely share bullshit with my family. Its definitely not the right tool for government officials to use. But its plenty safe for sharing memes and pics of my dog.

  It just about always comes down to user error. The White House trusting Signal is very indicative of the effectiveness of the app’s underlying protocols and the organization’s commitment to privacy. This is definitely huge publicity and I hope Signal endures the limelight.

  I don’t. I rely 100% on my password manager to autofill my usernames and passwords.

  You need a loan? With that kinda collateral, I could set you up with some liquidity at a nice rate. When you’re rich, they let you do it.

  Its not on LTSC. Fuck Copilot. Fuck Widgets. Fuck M$ Store. I highly recommend to anyone still using Windows today.

  What’s wrong with holding people at gunpoint and requesting a cryptocurrency transaction?

  Is it necessary to get a cell plan to run the hotspot? If its just a matter of buying the $20 and loading EFF’s software, I’m definitely onboard!

  Google hardware is actually solid. Just don’t run Google software.

  Block tyranny porn? Doesn’t that also filter Project 2025?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Purposely leaving small amounts of crypto on your device is like leaving a few dollars in the console of your car. It lets you know if your property has had it's security breached.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, this was my thought process. Security comes in layers and a huge amount of malicious software will scan for and send away unencrypted crypto sitting on a device. Setting up a small honeypot and monitoring for transactions gives me slight peace of mind. I just wanted to share my shower thought.

  The issue is 3rd party apps make it easier for non-techie people to subvert censorship. Raising the bar works bigly in the Kremlin’s favor.
