Very cool, you run a great instance, I’ll donate.

Just because our side sucks it doesn’t preclude the fact their side is much worse.

Is the nut job from Arizona Kari Lake already running VOA? Trump appointed her to do so and I’m sure she’ll make a mess of it.

Thank you for bringing the text over, I won’t click on X.

Yah me too, for my small company per seat pricing is really painful. For some services we just have one account and share access; only one person logs in at a time and tells everyone else when they’re done.

Please give MFA another look, it really is better security to use it.

The problems you mentioned: you keep the MFA backups in a password manager.

I know you’re worried about losing access to that password manager, use two different ones, write down your most important several passwords in a locked place, etc. it’s better.

He lies and twists facts constantly. Plus he’s annoying as hell, for whatever that’s worth.

Hehe, he won’t know, it’s a messy method. The experiment is “does the kitchen sink approach of a 100 zany things do any good or not.” I’d guess not, actually,

I agree with you and don’t know why people pile on against you. Is the guy cringey? Sure. Would it be more useful to humanity if he just donated his money to existing and more reputable research? For sure. But he’s just tinkering on himself, which is his right, and shares what he learns.

Is he misguided and a quack who may not learn anything? Maybe, but sometimes it’s the crazy folks who go against the grain that stumble on some good ideas.

Also, if anything he tries is interesting, yes of course he’s just a sample size of 1 - the idea is that other people could research it further.

(I think him roping other people in like his kid isn’t great)

Yeah I don’t know enough about him, just glances at bits of content over time, but I agree. History is full of such over enthusiastic tinkerers who subject themselves to ridiculous experiments but every now and then they learn something useful. It is cringeworthy, though, and not ok if foisted on others.

Astounding fascism, fuck Trump.

Oh shit yeah that’s the way to think of it.

Fucking Trump, shitty every day.

But he promised!

Aye good to know some instances block VPNs , didn’t know that. As a user from China who has to use a VPN always that would be problematic. Guys I got lucky with my instance.

Yeah, he’ll be yearning for a second chance at that someday, no doubt.

Apparently he is paranoid and has an over the top security apparatus:

Thank you, sounds interesting!

What is Scaled, precious?

I wonder how they get GPS info through a call, hmm.
