Thanks Portugal! You are a guide and inspiration. We’re solar-punking our way outa this jam.

I suspect the main issues people ‘in the wild’ have with signal involves ineffective use of the app. Do you check the ‘safety number’ with every user? Do you use disappearing messages? Does anyone have access to your phone, or other linked device?

Here’s what the interwebs say about Signal and Security:

Signal encryption key vulnerability being fixed on Mac (and less fully on Windows), July 12 2024 https://9to5mac.com/2024/07/12/signal-encryption-key-vulnerability/

I have my own clinic. I work 6 hour shifts. Healthcare doesn’t have to be like this.

Shifts are generally 12 hours. However, it’s pretty common to have a case come in at 11:30, and one is on that case till it’s done. So 13-14 hour shifts are not uncommon.

This is particularly insidious, as they claim to use the same encryption as Signal, developed by Open Whisper Systems. But Meta allows themselves access. 2 billion users. SMH.

whatsapp is owned by Meta. I did a quick DDG search to see if I was correct and got this:

“Meta owns several companies, including Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger, Threads, Meta Quest, Horizon Worlds, Ray-Ban Stories, Mapillary, Workplace, and Portal (discontinued).”

I’ve been working to get the people I communicate with on Signal.app, instead. Other more informed individuals may be able to make additional suggestions.

Here’s what the intarrwebs say:

Folding@home: achievements from over twenty years of citizen science herald the exascale era https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10055475/

Here’s waht FAH says: https://foldingathome.org/category/fah-achievements/

Actually we DID. Tho’ only for a little while. And the results were enormous. The B/Yamgata Influenza lineage appears to have gone extinct. The cool part is we weren’t even trying to do anything with those specific efforts to affect influenza. All of which should encourage us to cooperate more.

Dude’s a superhero, and needn’t be a ‘lone ranger’. Agreed. As the Fediverse expands, it will be the work of many; it just has to be that way.

MBIN FTW. KBIN has been “We are working on resolving the issues” for some days now. I hope Ernest is ok.

I have a login for lemmy.ml, as I have several from when I was switching over from Reddit. I’m thinking from what I’m reading here, that it’s not an instance I want to associate with.

Opting out is easy. Come to Pixelfed, they sure as hell aren’t IG.

I’ve been wanting to make a root cellar/ beer cave for years. This looks great!

That looks awesome! Strong work! More details would be lovely. Thanks for your inspiring post!

I like GNU Taler because it’s privacy preserving for the customer, is Free, Open Source, and is self hosted. And also because it’s not a new/ different currency.
