@LucasWerkmeister wish I had the time to play this!

Yes, I'm that old.

Every now and again I think that I'm too paranoid for not trusting hardware keys, but then another one of these come along:

"Beating Bitlocker In 43 Seconds" (TPM attack)

Also shows yet again that evil maid attacks are really tough to get around.

How broken is the Republican Party when Trump's biggest competitor loses to NOTA!?

"Nikki Haley loses to 'none of the candidates' in Nevada Republican primary"

If my dogs can't be at my wedding, then there simply won't be a wedding.

re: hair stuff, a query
@vagrantc @brennen I'm sure if you ask at DebConf there will be a ton of people who will happilly braid your hair and teach you the required techniques

@pluralistic My bank has a policy that they will never, ever, under any cicrumstance, ask your credit card number. If I want to report it as missing/stolen or if I suspect fraud even then I don't need to give it other than even maybe confirm the last 4 digits of the card which they will read out to me first.

@dnanian Yep, we all know what he's doing.

@pwaring This is a tough one, I think as you grow and your projects grow more complex with bigger clients, you do need more sales resources. But if you're still contracting as an individual or very small company, at some point it turns from sales to "you're consulting for free". So I think you're doing the right thing by limiting it, if they want more of your time, surely they can pay for it?

@MishaVelthuis For some reasion I was expecting The Blue Danube

@mjg59 We have computers now, so you don't
*have* to do it by hand!

@edward @orangesunny @andrew_shadura Ask him about the psychopaths!

@edward Oh no I'm missing all the fun!

Israel has now destroyed more than half of all buildings in Gaza. If you call this self defense, then FUCK YOU.

@Bobbins To be fair, most of my posts are of type 5 too, so maybe I could use some automation.

Software bugs
I tend to get the weirdest Thunderbird bugs.

The ongoing occupation and attack against civilians in Gaza is an ongoing horror. The IDF are monsters and so is anyone supporting them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4nA61FWGjY

An American Jewish person speaks against antisemitic Zionism, ironically the average Israeli would say that they are not real Jews, which is in itself further antisemitism.

Naledi Pandor is such a great speaker I'm glad that they put her at the forefront in speaking on the ICJ case to the media.
