This shows the sort of data that Proton Mail, which prides itself both on end-to-end encryption and that it's only governed by Swiss privacy law, can provide to third parties. In this case, the FBI. @evystadium.bsky.social has more.

It Wasn't Fascism All Along Conservatism was a distinct ideology but it is dead and it is not coming back.

Arc Raiders - Discord SDK Data Exposure Summary During gameplay of Arc Raiders, private Discord Direct Message (DM) conversations between two users were found being written in plaintext to a local game log file. Additionally, a full Discord...

So Arc Raiders is malware, basically.

If you use Discord either uninstall the game or stop using Discord because that "game" is accessing way too much data it shouldn't, even reading your DMs and sending them to the devs.

Super fun thing to find when Discord wants access to everyone's IDs.

What do people do for long term storage of their photos? Right now I just have everything in an iCloud library and it's backed up to my NAS and lives on my phone and laptop and 2 cloud providers but carrying around half a terabyte of photos (and growing) forever just seems inefficient.

Don’t Hurt Girls When You Dance (Or Any Other Time) - Unwinnable We may never know for sure, but I think there’s a reason that so many trans women have been able to identify with Kurt Cobain’s joy, pain and suffering, so strongly.

if you think the greatest threat to effeminate gay boys is the trans movement and not the cis straight men who overwhelmingly exclude and brutalize them then you should walk into the ocean immediately

Every trans woman I know has had "why not be an effeminate man?" shoved in our faces for ages and yet thus piece suggests that even once suggesting an effeminate boy might be trans is some sort of crime against humanity.

This is transphobia.

I wasn't convinced Claude could really replace me until I watched it trigger fail2ban while configuring fail2ban and lock itself out, just like I would have. 🫑

"Sarandos was informed shortly after arriving at the White House that his meeting was canceled because of a last-minute scheduling conflict, and then he promptly left the building."

Netflix did this to me once during the Chappelle fiasco but I only traveled an hour, not a whole ass continent πŸ˜‚

lol what a fucking joke. Anthropic banned my Claude Max account that was absolutely not violating the TOS and gave no description of the supposed violation.

I'm just getting something to run local models, I already hate cloud services anyway.

Apparently the proposed "Riley Gaines Act" does NOT "change fifth place into first place". We (don't) regret the error.

I remember a network switch that’s out of the box defaults emitted the admin password in the SNMP data.
