That's hilarious. Luckily that tablet will be one of the most inaccesable items ever, soon.

mastodon 4.7.3I'll just copy my #introduction post
I'm new to social media.
If I had the choice between getting 10 k followers, or 1 friend, I'd pick the friend. So, if you want to talk about a topic I post about, then let's talk.
I like #Aerospace (mostly the #Space), #VideoGames, #OpenSource, #Urbanism, #Electronics, and #Indie art (e.g., #GameDev, #Writing, #FanFiction, #Illustration, etc.).
I also like "tone indicators", and Markdown.
I won't be posting anything that could be used to identify me.

Don't forget the first non-american & non-NASA astronaut, Jeremy Hansen of the Canadian Space Agency.

It seems the replies are mostly criticism, which I understand, but look at it this way: there's yet another way to install Signal, one that's well supported within Microsoft's ecosystem.
Updating through infrastructure that's as trusted as your OS is a good thing. Look at what happened with notepadnotepad++:

The Notepad++ Situation Is Crazy

This quote is out of context. It's supposed to be prefaced with:
"…if as a society we conclude that… age-verification… is both necessary and inevitable…"
They also specify that:
• It should be done client-side
• The "age signal" should be binary.
• It should only be required for social media, porn, etc.
• The age signal should be e2ee & anonymized
• The entire system should be open-source.
@privacyguides@mastodon.neat.computer I'm disappointed that you would boost this. 7 words is not enough.
I'm not all that interested in astronomy, but this is pretty exiting. I hope Roman immediately produces a beautiful wallpaper like JWST did. Scientific data is… also cool.
That article is from last year. Trump's budget was rejected, [^1] and Artemis 4 & 5 have since been funded [^2] (but the first moon landing is now Artemis 4 [^3]). This isn't to say that Trump's proposed NASA budget didn't do significant damage, though. [^4]
For any of you who want to know what will happen with NASA's Artemis 2 mission post-launch, space.com has an article on it.
Wait, it was an upper stage failure? That's nice to hear. I was worried that reusing the lower stage was being problematic, but it might just be that Blue Origin needs more experience in orbital launches.

New Glenn's First Failure - What Do We Know?
Blue Origin just successfully reused the lower stage of their heavy-life launch vehicle. The engines were new and some of the avionics were upgraded, but it's still really exciting. Especially since they landed it again.
I can't wait to see what kind of impact this will have on the launch market.
When will the Artemis program have done enough to have a book written about it? And how long will it take for the details of those accomplishments to trickle down to the authors?

I think those are all good concerns, and you have a fair stance on the issue. Your criticism of Proton may or may not be warranted, depending on whether self-attestation counts as verification. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to criticize you. The reason I quoted your post was because I expect better from Privacy Guides. I expect a nuanced breakdown (like your reply to me) from them.
