Was asked tonight in an interview what advice I would give 18 year old me. 18 year old me was a prat. 18 year old me was madly in love with three things, his girlfriend who he was besotted with, technology, and car mechanics. I don't think giving 18 year old me advice would have helped a jot as I was too immature to listen to anyone. Hindsight is a wonderful thing, but you can't tell a horny 18 year old with a 486 DX and a copy of Berkeley Unix anything he didn't already think he knew.

Telegram - just noTeams - yes if you are part of an Office365 entity and need loggingWhatsApp - not unless you want law enforcement read everything you tap given Androids decision making around write records and notification logging in the clear.Signal - today - at this time - is the sole messaging platform you should use.Email: IT DOESN'T MATTER, if you email anything assume it's compromised the minute you pressed send.

A print shop somewhere in Harlesden is hoping that they get their invoice paid.Technically the Met may have to pay up for them.

I turned the coronation off ran a bath, put on U2 and zoned outBecause I was sick of the hypocrisy of a country full of people struggling enormously every single day and this being out of touch.In 1952 rationing still existed.It was out of touch thenNow it's a soap opera and a brand

IF you put an HP printer in a DMZ and blocked 80 and 443 and you turned off WiFi and only used USB to print, and you didn't install HP software on your Windows box... and you shared that USB printer... You could block firmware updates, but you'd also be wasting the point of living and breathingYou might as well just chuck HP printers in the bin

So yesterday we discovered that Twitter does not delete data. At all.And then we have to consider what that means for privacy and security, on both sides of the aisle, when US Customs Border agency staff announce this long awaited, long expected technology landgrab.We all know how flawed technology is, so the right to be forgotten is implicit in our livesTwitter don't agree If any attorney wants to reach out I think we start the class action suit hereBoost thishttps://www.vice.com/en/article/m7bge3/dhs-uses-ai-tool-babel-x-babel-street-social-media-citizens-refugees

My elderly neighbour, who I thought was wonderful, and his wife, they both had health issues recently.Last week saw removal trucks and then yesterday a family member mowing garden. I asked how they were doing only to be told they both died within days of each other last month in hospital.And nobody told the neighbourhood.Quietly cremated.They literally vanished off the face of the earth.I am still not sure how to process it

The downside of MastadonWe are attracting some folk who think that politics and sprinkling the word facist in posts is a positive assertive part of their position or argument. Without knowing what it means.I've blocked 63 people since I got here in November and muted 51.I used to block 50 a week on Twitter.It's still 63 too many. I'd rather we all just played nicely.I also get complaints mainly from the trans community and LGBTQ community and have no clue why when I post about tech
