@geekysteven It's sad how many people do NOT greet and thank the driver.
I mean, I don't overdo it. But if I walk past them anyway, a quick word or nod is only polite IMHO.
The oldest vuln that remains unfixed.
@volts.wtf ...your point is right. But also US electorate prioritizes, or simply prefers, entertainment over governance. Willing to bet vast swaths of Americans are just ignorant of ways, means, responsibilities, obligations of being a citizen of such a place as USA, & the myriad things our gov't does for us (& why). Too busy, gullible, lazy, apathetic, incurious, weak-minded, conspiracy-susceptible, etc...pick a poison. It depresses more than surprises me. And not sure the fix(es)
As top #TraitorTrump aides sent texts on Signal, flight data show a member of the group chat was in Russia
Goldberg reported, Ratcliffe named an active CIA intelligence officer in the chat at just after midnight in Russia. Witkoff's flight did not leave Moscow until around 2 a.m. local time & Sergei Markov, a former Putin advisor, said in a Telegram post that Witkoff & Putin were meeting in the Kremlin until 1:30 a.m.

“Physicians at Covenant Children’s Hospital in Lubbock, Texas, say they’ve now treated a handful of unvaccinated children who were given so much vitamin A that they had signs of liver damage”.
Vitamin A does not prevent measles. Vitamin A at high doses is dangerous, especially in kids.

One piece of misinfo we need to address is the claim that there are ‘vulnerabilities’ in Signal. This isn’t accurate. Reporting on a Pentagon advisory memo appears to be at the heart of the misunderstanding: https://npr.org/2025/03/25/nx-s1-5339801/pentagon-email-signal-vulnerability. The memo used the term ‘vulnerability’ in relation to Signal—but it had nothing to do with Signal’s core tech. It was warning against phishing scams targeting Signal users. 2/
