@PakkonenCT @teslanaut if only #OpenSecrets were truly "open", and not jailed in #CloudFlare's walled garden.
@shapr @kensanata you're a bit late. There is a mission to send humans to Mars. It's a one-way ticket and the deadline for registration has past. And indeed kensanata, it's interesting that cars appear on Mars faster than humans... the planet that will get Earth refugees as humans ruin Earth.
@geotechland @protonmail @Tutanota no service does that & i'm not even sure it's possible. The service would have to send audited FOSS javascript that can generate an unpassworded key pair that's stored locally (but I don't think js can access local storage). ATM the only way for it to work is using any pop3 or imap service & for a trusted expert to configure a PGP-capable MUA for the novice user.
@geotechland @Tutanota @protonmail You warned that e2ee puts low-tech users at risk for the inconvenience of password loss causing loss of access to old email. The solution is to use an MUA & have it POP3 all msgs, and configure the MUA to use #PGP. The local PGP private key need not be encrypted itself, so all inbound mail is e2ee without risk of a forgotten password.
Calling out #RainforestAlliance for having a pro- #environment stated purpose, yet they use #CloudFlare for their website. #hypocrisy
@imgn well, certainly Musk is smart enough to do more damage than Trump.
@imgn that is a bit terrifying. On the one hand, Musk wouldn't be quite as reckless & harmful as Trump, but for that reason Musk is also more likely able to get enough support to take power. Would be interesting to see if the white supremecists are enthusiastic about a /black/ VP who is racist & dismisses slavery as a "choice".

@whilelm @CaptSutter you can ignore that error because it's a *.onion site (you have a tunnel automatically all the way to the host even without SSL)
Ethical #American consumers: here is a black/white/gray list of insurance companies: https://git.disroot.org/cyberMonk/liberethos_paradigm/src/branch/master/usa_insurance_companies.md The dirt is exposed. Plz consider using that data when deciding who to get insurance quotes from. If you have more data on your insurers, plz let me know
@vandrar @radicalrobit if wages are high, then $500 is not.
@CaptSutter it's not my site. Can you explain what the trust issue is for this onion site?
