I can’t think of anything sadder than pretending you own a private jet / lambo / etc.
I drive a VW. I fly economy. I wear one pair of vans till they fall apart. My iPhone is generations old.
All money is fake and death is inevitable etc.
Funny #mastodon search interaction. I was looking for something about MIT (the US University). But there’s a lot of German speakers who use the word “mit” a lot. (It means “with”)
No problem, right? I can search for “language: English”. And that’s when I find all the bilingual posters who post German language in a post labeled English. A lot more than you’d expect.

Please, there is still a little time left for us to go to the store and get something for dinner. Can anyone help us out? We have 2 kids and 2 adults to feed, but we only have $9.
Thanks for any help you can give. Please boost whether you can help with cash or not. Every little bit helps!

Hard to describe how much I appreciate that Mastodon can’t succumb to (fascist) laws like Mississippi’s internet age limits.
That’s freedom of speech, of info, of the ability to learn. That’s important. One of the few things I’d call myself a zealot about.

As far as I can find, only one major journalism organization -- the Guardian -- published an accurate and contextual headline describing Trump's illegal executive order on voting.
What made the difference? The Guardian added the word "unconstitutional".
Come on, journos, do your damn jobs.

Oh, well this is bad. I lost my Kobo e-reader and there is no way to de-activate that device short of deleting my entire Kobo account and re-registering with a new email. So if someone finds my device and starts using it, they will be able to buy 10,000 books.
Just sheer ineptitude.
I loved Kobo, the company, up until now. Apparently no one ever considered that a user might lose their device?
EU capitals are drafting detailed plans for post-war military deployments to Ukraine, backed by US capabilities, Ursula von der Leyen said. She stressed security guarantees as “paramount” while touring eastern EU states to boost defense readiness.

One of the things I hate about AI is how it makes everyone lower their standards with regard to user privacy.
Including companies like Apple that have a well deserved reputation for protecting it.
Yesterday I got a push notification about a new feature in the Feedback app that everyone in the iOS beta has installed. There’s a new “Rate Your Experiences”.
Which is a cleverly named function that sends your and your friends private data to Apple in plain text.
There’s a new purple button:

Counterproposal:
Gaza strip made twice as wide.
West Bank fully Palestinian. All settlers kicked out without compensation.
Full Palestinian sovereignty, including air space and EEZ in the Med.
Airport in southern Gaza, angled so flight paths avoid Israel.
Transport & infrastructure corridor between Gaza & West Bank.
Rebuild, physical and societal, paid for by all who aided Israel.
Israel and Palestine demilitarised. Security done by international militaries.
