Agreed, all it is now is a marketing stunt. Usually with responses built by some lawyer or publicist. But anyway, 1 horse sized duck or 100 duck sized horses?

Heck i couldn't easily check if diablo 4 servers were wonky because I can't check the blizzard Twitter. Obviously this is less important than an amber alert. As another reply said, I think police need a better way to disseminate emergency information and that is on them. However something like server status is a perfect use of Twitter that is now close enough to impossible to do. If public agencies are going to continue using Twitter for these purposes, then something needs to change. Personally I'd be ok with the government having a little more say in things if we are going to continue viewing Twitter as a public service.

My 14 year old account is dead and hasn't been logged into since the api day. I do still lurk on politics and one other sub, but I use RiF to do it.

I hadn't used anything except my account logged in through RiF for 13 years. When I checked the front page as a guest I realized finally just how bad reddit is. All the posts were hot garbage surrounded by ads. I honestly don't know how people use reddit now.

As many others have said already, I loved signal until they ended sms support. I'm not going to have two separate messaging apps. Especially when 90% of people I know won't use signal and don't care about encryption. I just use the Google messaging app, which in my opinion is way better than Samsung's app. I enjoy rcs support and as I understand it, there is still e2e encryption.

That being said, if I'm doing anything illegal I'm going to force the people to use signal or something safer. As much as I love Google, I'm not going to trust them to keep me out of jail. Nudes would probably be the most sensitive thing I'd trust Google with.

Oh and I dont mind the Facebook messenger app if you use the secure mode. Hate Facebook though, just the messenger is ok.

Strong /r/ultralightjerk vibes. I approve.

In similar news, does anyone have a good replacement to Stitcher? Only a few days left and I'm really upset. First RiF now Stitcher. It's been a bad summer.

I was just talking to my father last week about this exact thing. He built his house about 10 years ago and bought the land close to 30 years ago. He was a steel worker so not terrible pay but nothing amazing. That house today would be well over 1mil. No way he could have built it today. And we live pretty close to the middle of nowhere, Indiana. I pray I can buy my brother out one day, at this rate it's the only chance I have of owning a nice house. Even with a STEM degree I'm looking at maybe 70k salary right now. Which I thought would be awesome when I started college but now that I graduated, I feel like anything under 6 figures will be hard to live a middle class life on. I guess I'm lucky I spent my 20s broke and homeless, I have learned to really stretch a dollar.

Your not wrong, the led on the arduino is super bright. I think you can reflash to not have it turn on though.

I haven't looked at Mastodon at all yet so I don't really know how it works, but from what I have gathered, it is not dissimilar from lemmy but for microblogs. I suppose the main similarity is its distributed network which I agree is a better solution than a centralized server. Hopefully that statement ages well.
