Hello there!
I boost a lot of posts, but I have a few things to say every now and then.
I am largely fine with boosting posts from people I disagree with even on significant, dividing issues. I usually don't, however, if they actively advocate for these ideas... so it goes :/

U.S. border officials copy the contents of up to 10,000 phones and computers every year and save them to a big database for 15 years, as we first reported in September: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/09/15/government-surveillance-database-dhs/
Following pressure from Sen. Wyden, the agency, CBP, now says it's considering shrinking that 15-year save time and plans to give people more details about what they're doing: https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/01/31/abraham-accords-expand-with-cybersecurity-collaboration/

@Big_Diggity @Cain@theres.life I wish they had ESV....

I think I've spend hours looking into this. I did some WHOIS queries and there are abuse email addresses you can send reports to, I suppose to get the domain registrars to remove the entries. I really got to get on my college homework though; I've done enough
I opened the link in a Tor browser to take a look around. The scary looking S snake isn't part of the site, it is content blocked by the browser for security reasons.
I already reported the scam to YouTube and the website to Google Safe Browsing.
If you are into #STEM, you'll find this #scam pretty funny.
Apparently their charger uses "Algorithmic Lithium Induction" to charge your phone in just 11 minutes, and "extremely advanced AI technology that overrides your smartphone's operating system" to turn it into a handheld supercomputer. 😄
The more you watch it, the worse it gets

mastodon.social, mastodon.online and joinmastodon.org were hit by a DDoS yesterday, thankfully joinmastodon.org was already behind Fastly so it didn't have ny impact on it. We've now moved mastodon.online behind Fastly and will do the same with mastodon.social soon.

@cyberghost@fosstodon.org Some BIOSes let you disable the mic. If that feature isn't there maybe there are kernel modules you can disable or uninstall, but I don't know how that works

@heyheymomo There's something to that, actually
When you work on a big work of creativity, it can be very difficult for you. But if 1,000 people play your game, is it worth it? "If 1,000 people play your game, the resulting impact is 1,000 times greater than your hardship."

@RL_Dane @benjaminhollon I think it's usually "nibble", but I like "nybble" better :)
@big_diggity@the.talesofmy.life Like bread and butter.
