"We meet two scam victims, one in the US and the other in China, who lost millions of dollars and had their lives turned upside down by the pig butchering romance scam. And gain exclusive access to a former scam boss, whose company stole millions of dollars over the years from victims using a manual he designed."

@idoubtit I DO walk in the city (and not a nice area of the city, but could be worse). I added a kettelbell to it to make walking more of a workout.

If you want something more sane, try a backpack filled with weight...even a bag of flour will work at first. I mean a brisk ten minute walk after a meal.

Part of this suggestion is from

@freemo WE NEED the candidates to weigh in on the important topics that Philly wants to know: favorite cheesesteak place? Fav pizza place? wit or witout? Fried onions or nah?

"the document proposes that new laws shift liability to software makers that fail to take reasonable precautions to secure their products and services. The bills would be drafted in coordination between Congress and the private sector and include “an adaptable safe harbor framework” to protect companies that “securely develop and maintain their software products and services.”"

"One reason that’s the case: the Motion Picture Production Code, aka the Hays Code. The limitations at the time included a ban on depicting interracial relationships.

“During this period of time, if she’d been openly Asian, she wouldn’t have been allowed to be in a lead role”"

@freemo See...all of these politicians out here....and NONE OF THEM have tried to corner the mac-and-cheese vote!

Philly: A vote in May for Allan Domb is a vote for tasty mac-and-cheese!

"In the short term, Domb said it's about getting the violence in control. In the long term, education is at the center of his approach to improving Philadelphia’s situation, saying crime is the “symptom” of other issues."

@ceresbzns I posed your question to ChatGPT for funsies. It said:

"While it is difficult to provide a comprehensive answer to this question, it is safe to say that a significant portion of the electronics hardware currently available in the market is manufactured in China or contains components that are manufactured in China. This is due to the fact that China has developed a robust manufacturing industry with low labor costs and a strong supply chain.

However, there are still electronics hardware that are not entirely or mostly manufactured in China. For example, some high-end electronic components and products are manufactured in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and other countries. Additionally, some American and European companies have started to manufacture their electronics hardware locally or in other countries to reduce their dependence on China.

Regarding security implications, while the country of origin of the hardware can be a factor in the security implications, it is not the only determining factor. The design, manufacturing process, and supply chain of the hardware also play a critical role. While having an American or European label on the product may provide some assurance regarding security, it does not guarantee that the hardware is completely secure. It is important to evaluate the security of the hardware based on multiple factors, including its design, manufacturing process, and supply chain."

"Sandra Lajoie learned about the strength and resilience of Black women at a very young age. After an unfortunate incident left her blind in one eye, she worked twice as hard to overcome the stigmas created against her. Years later, Lajoie is the Vice President of Communications at NBCUniversal: NBC and Bravo by day, working on her memoir by night and inspiring the rest of the world 24/7."

Again, don't use Chinese hardware for sensitive projects like monitoring your home. The cost savings is not worth this!

"A video-enabled smart intercom made by Chinese company Akuvox has major security vulnerabilities that allow audio and video spying, and the company has so far been unresponsive to the discoveries."
