    If you’re putting a person that has expressed content for vaccines, one of mankind’s greatest discoveries, in a position of authority over the management of vaccines, you will have a surge in all that vaccines helped to eradicate.

    It’s absolutely bonkers that there are folks that have completely fallen for the “vaccines are bad“ narrative. Who would’ve thought, right? “We got abortion, immigrants, trans kids,… What else can we throw into the mix? Vaccines is a funny word…“

    I had a Republican client tell me the other day that the Democrats want to allow abortion at eight months. That’s what she believes. I have really great relationships with my clients, and they’re generally really nice people. It really infuriates me and makes me sad.

  • ‘They’re Eating the Cats’: American Woman Jailed in Ohio
  • No worries, you’re right. It reads funny at the last sentence just capping the article with that right there. I think they were trying to bring it back to the viral nature of her video

    The video of Ferrell’s arrest was circulated online shortly afterward

    I think this was the main topic they really wanted to highlight.

    but the Canton incident happened approximately 170 miles from Springfield and Ferrell is a U.S. citizen.

    And the abrupt debunking to wrap it up.

  • ‘They’re Eating the Cats’: American Woman Jailed in Ohio
  • Allexis T. Ferrell’s arrest received worldwide attention after it was falsely used as proof of claims by Donald Trump and running mate JD Vance that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio were eating their pets.

    Because it was being said that Haitian immigrants were the ones eating cats.

    And this right here is a prime example of what Fox News and Republican sycophants do time and time again because the truth simply won’t work for their agendas. Let’s take a true story that has some legs and twist it the fuck up to really get it moving, but with their exciting new twist on it.

    This right here is what that moron, you republicans voted for, was talking about in his last debate. He rolled with this bullshit, on national television, in full view of the world, and said Haitian immigrants were eating cats because of this story gone game-of-telephone.

    Nice, reeeaaal nice…

  • How to: Encrypt Your iPhone
  • I don’t think I’ve ever really considered any of EFF’s articles “pointless” per se. But the article is a bit more nuanced than just setting in a pin (I mean the first sentence introduces the intent of the article: “Encrypting the data on your iPhone isn't as simple as creating a password“), and I thought it would be interesting for anybody who didn’t know.

    There’s also some notes about legal standings, which I thought was interesting:

    In the U.S., using a biometric-like your face scan or fingerprint-to unlock your phone may also compromise legal protections for the contents of your phone afforded to you under the Fifth Amendment privilege against compelled incrimination. Under current U.S. law-which is still in flux-using a memorized passcode generally provides a stronger legal footing to push back against a court order of compelled device unlocking/decryption. While EFF continues to fight to strengthen our legal protections against compelling people to decrypt their devices, there is currently less protection against compelled face and fingerprint unlocking than there is against compelled password disclosure.

    But ultimately I thought that it would be good for folks to know about the Advanced Data Protection feature, which takes your security beyond the scope of just your local phone’s PIN or password.

    With Advanced Data Protection enabled, your backups and most important files get the end-to-end encryption benefit, better securing your files against mass surveillance, rogue Apple employees, or potential data leaks.

    This protects your data in the cloud and makes it inaccessible to anyone including Apple, who wouldn’t be able to help you if you lost your recovery backups. You can also setup Recovery Contacts if you lose access to your device.

    There’s some other interesting features this article does not go over like Stolen Device Protection, which changes the behavior of how your iPhone allows access to the device based on its location.

    You sound like an experienced pro power user, so you may find this article pointless worthless.

    Encrypting the data on your iPhone isn't as simple as creating a password. Since a lot of your data is also likely stored online, it's also important to understand how that online storage works, and to consider enabling an additional feature that better secures that data.

    Trump’s appointees are the Trojan horse that could lead to America’s strategic collapse
  • I don’t know if Thom Hartmann just posts to multiple sites or if “AlterNet” is just reposting his original article from the Daily Kos, but he posted it there first and there doesn’t seem to be a paywall.

    But I’m halfway in and this article is wild. A lot of these things we’ve all heard about or maybe forgotten, so it’s nice to see Trump‘s history laid out concisely. Wild stuff - I totally forgot that his ex-wife is buried on one of his golf courses and died by…falling down the stairs, of course.

    I use an MX Master S and a G series clicky keyboard. They use different wireless adapters. I just connect via Bluetooth. Of course they also use different software managers also which is annoying.

    How do you stop a Keurig mid-brew if you choose the wrong size?

    I accidentally picked too large a cup size and realized I have no idea how to stop the brew. I remember this happening once at an office Keurig and we just opened the lid making a hot mess everywhere. Is there really no way of emergency stopping the brew?
