They don’t need to be a techie. Just someone who can click a button.
I am remembering Julian Assuage has/had a payload that was distributed via BitTorrent. The file was encrypted with a private key and his public key was posted either as a file in the package or on the site where the magnet file was downloaded.
Before he was arrested, he encouraged everyone to download the file and sit on it and to keep seeding it. He said in the event of his untimely death, the password would be released for everyone to decrypt.
That would be another option but you sort of need the notoriety to make this work.


Iirc the way that blind works is by verifying you work at a specific company but then that email address cannot be used again.
It’s not associated with your specific account.
Someone who worked at blind explained that but there’s no way to know this for sure.
I’ve actually given this a lot of thought over the years. The biggest issue for me is all my AWS services that no one in my family knows about.
So the idea would be to, at minimum, let my family know what services are being used.
Unfortunately there isn’t a turn-key solution. I’ve seen a number of well-meaning solutions and some that are quite novel but they all suffer from the same problems: how do you deal with false positives and how do you verify your deadness.
I imagine that the problem is similar to the Yellowstone trash can problem, in that any solution to mitigate one will make it harder on the other.
The best solution I’ve found is to have a two-person solution, similar to launching a nuke. You have automation that tests if you are active that emails a close friend or relative to verify you are indeed dead.
Ideally there would be more than one person on this list a confirmation from two people would kick off all of the automations you code.
Who exactly is this 4cat?


Mormonism has very strong ties in Hawaii. They sent missionaries there when the state was annexed by the US.
While not as strong as Utah, it very much is there.


It’s their fault for being sluts. If they were strong Christian women, God wouldn’t have punished them.


That’s not how the ADA works. You could say the same for wheelchair ramps, but ultimately it’s on the store owner to reasonably provide accomodations to people who want to use their services. It’s not on the disabled person to pick and select who will accommodate them or not. It’s why businesses are required to reserve a portion of their parking lot to those with handicap placards. It shouldn’t be up to each disabled person to figure out which business they can go to.
What Starbucks is doing would be akin to Walmart charging an extra buck for you to use one of their mobility scooters or an extra $5 if you require the assistance from an employee because you can’t reach something.


Privacy: I have blinds on my windows. I control whether they are open or closed, but they aren’t secure. You could break a window and look inside if you really wanted to.
Security: my glass storm door has a lock. But privacy is only there when I close the front door.
There is overlap between these two concepts but one does not imply the other.
These states:


At least Amazon is thinking of the shareholders.


Katie, I’m going to give you the same advice that Jen Barkley gave to Leslie.
Get a better job! Don’t be the kid that graduates high school and hangs out in the school parking lot. Be the woman who moves away, climbs the ladder, and confidently comes back, and has sex with their hot old English teacher just for kicks.
We need people like you. Do not give up. If you run for President in 2028, I will volunteer!
I’m very familiar with privacy and I use it for some stuff. But I very much prefer to use a credit card if I can.
I wish more banks did virtual cards. The only credit card I have that does is Capital One.
Citi used to. Not sure if they still do.


The hardest thing about Linux Mint is installing all of your software. It’s daunting even for very established users.
I moved from Ubuntu to LM a few months ago and I’ve enjoyed it.


I could have sworn they did release it. I remember people saying that it was graphic because you should see dead children on the floor as the police, nonchalantly, walked around the building.
No encryption provided; Christians have nothing to hide
I actually 100% support this. Let’s make sure every church only uses HTTP and does not hash their passwords.
After all…what do they have to hide?
Instead of daemons, it’s angels.
Oh God…tree law…I never realized how much I missed this.
