Closed because I’m afraid of the dark most times. My cats don’t care they run around the living room. Dog sleeps with me on the floor at the bed to protect me.

The only people who have landlines anymore are old boomers and people who need a landline for WFH jobs and they probably don’t even answer it. I know I didn’t when I had a landline specifically for work.

Yeah I was thinking about that as I was trying to pay the scenario in my head. I couldn’t do it.

Yeah I meant more like staying the party you were elected but voting only for the other side while never voting for your side. Not actually switching to the other side officially.

Right I meant more of not “switching parties” like they did. Moreso, elected as a Republican and only vote with the democrats without changing your party.

Can’t someone run as a Republican, gain office and then never vote for Republican ideals/far right stances? Or is that not a thing that can be done?

That’s still insane and I lived through it. Never got over the shocked pikachu face of that one.

I hate that I can read this

I read it as the military is taking it over and controlling the internet/domain over there and not that .ml will only be for mali military.

I’m confused, so he identifies this problem ten years ago but only just now raised an alarm as his contract was due to be up on Monday?

According to the Financial Times, which first reported the story, Dutch internet entrepreneur Johannes Zuurbier identified the problem more than 10 years ago.

Since 2013, he has had a contract to manage Mali’s country domain and, in recent months, has reportedly collected tens of thousands of misdirected emails.

None were marked as classified, but, according to the newspaper, they included medical data, maps of US military facilities, financial records and the planning documents for official trips as well as some diplomatic messages.

Mr Zuurbier wrote a letter to US officials this month to raise the alarm. He said that his contract with the Mali government was due to finish soon, meaning “the risk is real and could be exploited by adversaries of the US”.

Mali’s military government was due to take control of the domain on Monday.

And trans girls/women aren’t just doing that either.

I have never heard a man say “oh darn! I can’t rape her, she made it to the safe zone of the women’s bathroom!”

Are you daft? You can’t be serious right? Creeps aren’t going to be deterred by a door. Trans people just want to use the bathroom and get out as quickly and quietly as possible.

🤦🏼‍♀️

Well if they aren’t a boy then it wouldn’t matter and I would be fine with my daughter sharing a locker room/bathroom. I’m more worried about her being shot and killed than someone who is trans in the bathroom with her.

People don’t just wake up one day and go “I’m a girl! Hyuk! I’m going to go be a girl just to get in the bathroom! Hyuk!”

People don’t do that, especially trans people. Get your head out of your ass.

Well damn. Didn’t think of that.

Isn’t loli using child models though? I thought that was the whole point of loli/shota/whatever the fuck else they want to call it?

It’s just young child models but they are x hundred years old, no?

Thanks for the reminder OP. I meant to download memmy the other day. But now I am trying Mlem, memmy and wefwef. Each one seems to be slightly different albeit attempting to recreate Apollo to make the transition smoother.

I like what I see so far and once the bugs and the server traffic get handled I’m sure there will be leaps and bounds on QoL stuff.

My main thing is an easy to use UI while offering a stable connection. Everything else will fall into place eventually.

Do I have to opt out of threads? I have no intention of ever using it but I don’t want it to automatically be created just bc I have a Facebook.

Are you automatically signed up for this since it’s part of Facebook? I really have no interest in threads at all or do I have to manually opt out of it?

Wasn’t it proven that majority of the positive spez posts are from bots or chatgpt or something?
