mcdonalds is so funny to me as an option for food because like
a big mac and fries cost more than a döner kebab
unlike a döner kebab they have zero flavor and seasoning
and they are also less healthy
and i also don’t support an immigrant run local business
In light of recent events, I want to remind everyone that end-to-end encryption doesn't prevent you from adding the editor of the Atlantic to your private group chats.
Signal provides:
- Excellent protection against third party interception of communications (wiretapping).
- Limited protection against compromised (hacked) or lost devices
- No protection against certain common usage mistakes (accidentally including a reporter in your large group war planning chat).
Een wijkagent aan je deur? Het kan je als activist zo maar overkomen. Gelukkig wist deze anti-genocide-activist dit goed af te handelen. Nogal een stuntelende agent, maar dat kan ook een trucje zijn. Plant een Olijfboom (waarvan ook deze video) zegt hierover het volgende:
"Absurd dat dit gebeurd. Gisteren werd een anti-genocide demonstrant thuis opgezocht door de politie. Daar maakte ze een opname van. Er werd met de vraagstellingen duidelijk gemaakt dat ze in de gaten gehouden wordt.
In Nederland komt het vaker voor dat mensen die gebruik maken van hun demonstratierecht bezocht worden, alleen maar met de bedoeling om mensen te stoppen gebruik te maken van hun recht. …
**Wat te doen**
In het geval dat een politieagent je benadert via de telefoon of op een andere manier:
* Blijf kalm en geweldloos. Intimidatie is een eeuwenoude strategie om mensen ervan te weerhouden te protesteren en bewegingen te doen groeien.
* Neem het gesprek op. (Je bent niet verplicht te vermelden dat je een opname maakt; het stiekem opnemen van een gesprek waaraan je zelf deelneemt is legaal).
* Beantwoord geen vragen, maar vraag de agent wel om alle vragen te stellen die hij heeft.
* Stel vragen! Op de volgende pagina vind je een vragenlijst opgesteld door een advocaat.

Much of the Signal discussion is overlooking a key point: an entire apartment building was leveled to kill one guy.
How many civilians died? Is this a war crime?
The religious language—“prayer,” “God bless,” “Godspeed to our Warriors”—makes it all the more revolting, like a game of Battleship from the safety of a church basement.
Pretty amazing when you think about it.
TFW your wages are materially worse than a 15th century Florentine day laborer

A few days ago I gotten some fur in my DMs in telegram with the right extremism points and talking about "anti woke" stuff and thanking me that I do not have any woke stuff in my stickerpack.
So I gotten an artist to draw an special sticker as an "fuck ya and the horse you rode in on"
It also has dubble point since a few weeks I start to become more comfortable as "outing" myself as pansexual. I had issues with this due to past trauma but you know what. I am here, I am pan, fucking deal with it. And you wanna be transphobic well you gotta go through me first.
Edit: why did no body tell me to link the artist, its made by greylong over at: https://t.me/Greyl0ngArt

I recently drove a car whose whole control and entertainment system was a gigantic iPad-like thing mounted to the dash. It caused me to have a realisation about the #Ui and #UX of touch screens.
There is no way to touch a touchscreen without it treating that touch as intentional. What I mean is: without taking my eyes off the road, I can grope across the dashboard, find a knob or button—by touching it—without activating any function. Touching the volume button or temperature knob doesn’t DO anything until I do it with more force and intentionality. Not so for a #touchscreen.
My mobile #phone (an #iPhone 13) has no dead space in its face. There’s no part of the phone face I can touch without it assuming I meant to do that and I wanted to activate whatever was under my finger. Old iPhones that had physical home buttons also had dead space to either side: a safe space to hold the phone without DOING anything.
Computer keyboard have little raised pips on the F and J keys so you can find them by touch without looking. I do this all the time. But I don’t type the letters F or J. Touch screens have no such affordances.
I look at the #blackberry keyboard in this photo and I see a raised space bar. It’s an #affordance that lets you orient your fingers, and orient how you hold the phone, without looking.
I miss buttons.
