the quest for the vaccine
"Print and fill out this form"
Printer-less me: (is fedex still open? UPS store?,.....who has....,. a printer, in *this* economy?)
neg - | a rant
it's very cool and awesome that most of my relatives got their vaccine early in the process
but I'm really not appreciating the tone I'm getting from my relatives like *I'm* not moving fast enough to get an appointment
I'm competing with like thousands of people to get one 10 minute slot, could they try and be more understanding of that?
((tl;dr they won't because Conservatism™))
gambling tw?
yes, I did scratch it
no, I didn't even win the minimum 3 USD$ prize
whoever lost it probably thinks that ticket was gonna be the "big win" but lol, nope 😔 sorry rando
just fyi FBI is using facial recognition to identify people who also are identifiable in instagram pics https://www.huffpost.com/entry/facial-recognition-capitol-defendants_n_607f34c0e4b0df3610c17614
this should not be news to anyone, but facebook works extremely closely with cops, feds, etc and you should never put your face on those types of platforms if you are also recorded criming
fucking with police tech
Ok, so cops have this tool called Cellbrite they use to automate collecting data off of cell phones that they physically posses and are unlocked.
Turns out, Cellbrite has shite security, which means that you can drop an otherwise-inert file somewhere in your phone's system that, if scanned, will inject itself and allow arbitrary code execution on their Cellbrite device. I.E, you can make their hardware do literally anything you want, including compromising any data the device collects.
And in what they describe as unrelated news, Signal will start occasionally and randomly stashing some inert files in installations on established accounts.
