Old Fucking Punk @lwriemen@librem.one

Hey there. In short I'm looking for potential donors as I need a live liver transplant. I've set up a bunch of information and links over at - https://ginpuliver.carrd.co/

Even if you cannot help me directly, please share this with others. There is bound to be someone out there that can help. 

Thank you all in advance.

@lightweight Also, the O365 encryption is pretty shit. I've once looked into it, and they even fell for the basic crypto newbie boo boos in their implementation. Plus, it's not end-to-end, but server-side encryption only.

MS Cryptography FAIL

... my concerns to their senior IT team...' and she sent it via an 'encrypted' Microsoft Office 365 email, which required me to request a one-time key to read it. I responded that using any Microsoft technology for security was the fastest way to convince me that their organisation was a lost cause. I'm sure she's unaware all their MSFT data is available, without subpoena, to the US' spy agency , the NSA thanks to the US Cloud & Patriot acts. 🤦

I'm thinking of blocking access to content on my site to anyone not running an ad blocker.

"We, concerned members of REI Co-op, believe it is crucial for the health of our cooperative that our Board of Directors act in accordance with the central principle all cooperatives are founded on, “democratic member control.” As REI Co-op has grown, this main principle has been significantly weakened by Board actions and no longer plays a critical role in the governing practices of our co-op."

Anti-Zionism is not antisemitism.
Don't let that fear that has been cultivated for decades dictate how you stand up for humanity. There are many anti-zionist jews who speak out.

Innocent people are being slaughtered in the thousands from US/EU backed colonial apartheid state.

Depressingly accurate.

'“Please consider how crazy this system is,” Boyd told delegates from scores of nations attending the hearing. “States that are trying to tackle the climate and environmental crisis and safeguard the human rights of their people are being forced to pay billions of dollars in compensation to the very corporations that have caused this crisis. Instead of making polluters pay, states are paying polluters.”

We need sharper, principled policy makers.

5.3 metres – the degree of sea level rise now unavoidable from West Antarctic Ice Sheet melting ALONE – is sufficient to entirely submerge most of urban Abu Dhabi, Bahrain, Dubai, and an enormous area of southern Iraq (Qatar gets off surprisingly lightly).

Are they sure they want to pump YET MORE oil?

shitty health insurance, the dems would have handed Trump's ass to him in 2016. But instead, they gave us a policy that was literally written by the insurance industry, and which has proven (predictably) disastrous for most people in the proceeding years, and which left the door open for a buffoon like Trump to have a shot.

But the NYT liberals in this country seem to have given up on winning anything material & have settled for just renaming things.

@sorenhave I do not think that societies in general have realised yet that between 1 and 2m of sea level rise is already inevitable - the question we seek to answer as scientists working on #IceSheets is how fast will we get there?

The answer will vary depending on where you are in the world, but also on how quickly different parts of the cryosphere melt.

I wrote that we should frame it like this for a ministry briefing last year, I don't know if my framing got through though.

An Israeli technology company has developed the means of delivering spyware via online ad networks. There’s no defense against the spyware and the Israeli government has given the company approval to sell the technology.

For now, take comfort in the fact that it’s a hefty $6.4 million price tag for a single ad infection.
