Linkedin is for the weirdos who like hanging around late at the office, waiting for the next opportunity to show off to the boss

@0daystolive I find it nice to keep my previous or ongoing clients updated with my availability. It can also be a good place for work specific introductions, so I'm not gonna entirely knock it. I've definitely got contracts and work through there! Nowhere near as much as I have via word of mouth / referral through years though

Something I will never understand is the "self-perceived success" to self-help guru / life coach pipeline. Honestly, what the fuck is wrong with these people.

It's a funny concept to me how many Americans feel the need to talk about how they are seeing too many political bad vibe takes they need to mute it. There is no platform based censorship or algorithm that they probably got used to on Twitter here.They are psychologically not cut out for the perspective the rest of us outside the neoliberal paradise are forced to live in.

@futurebird This monopolistic adversarial/hostile design shit actively erodes any idea of consent, we are at the point of their tech being actively weaponized against us.

People would rather mass surveillance and a Nanny fascist police state with access to everyone's mobile device over responsible parenting and not giving children mobile phones until they are responsible enough to own one. You lazy bastards etc.

I didn't get a phone or internet until I was 16 and as a result none of your devices are safe from my kiddie scripts ๐

My hard line for government surveillance is them monitoring my communications with my friends and family, if they intercept that I consider myself basically in a prison despite commiting no crime, even prisoners are entitled to secrecy communicating with their lawyers, I will actively become a terrorist. It's not an extreme position to hold.

People need to start thinking about what lines need to be crossed before they are driven to action because complicity in your rights being taken away means you won't ever get them back before they encroach on yet another freedom.

As soon as your endpoint is compromised, so too is all your communications from that device, if they can scan images and files, they can read certs and encryption keys. You are owned.

CVE-2026-1603I refuse to believe that is a vulnerability over a purposeful backdoor, fuckin' yank products.
