As of now, Molly lastest release was in 31 July (Version v8.19.2-4).

It contains vulnerabilities that had been simply fixed in mainline Signal.

Take for example the latest exploit disclosed in October, it has been fixed in Signal 8.27. 1. Meanwhile Molly remains vulnerable.

It's currently recommended to use mainline Signal and delete Molly till they at least return to updating their app adequately, if they ever will.

Today’s game is Fire Emblem Fortune’s Weave. I picked up a physical copy used from my local area and have been playing it all day. Especially handy because I went to a Party and while everyone else was passed out I got to sit by myself and play.

Fire Emblem has kind of always been a special franchise for me. Winter of 2021 I was in a rough spot and bought my 3DS and modded it. At that time Fire Emblem was that weird franchise in Smash with all the sword guys. I had decided to try Fire Emblem Fates, it resonated with me in a way that I don’t think many games have since.

Anyways. I was surprised when I found out they were already making a DLC. It kind of has my hopes high this game will hit the same for me as Fates once did. The soundtrack alone is already really good and I like it. That’s pretty standard for Fire Emblem for me though.

So far I’ve found the gameplay to be really enjoyable. I decided to play in Hard Mode for a challenge. I’m thinking of lowering it though because I’ve gotten stuck on this bit with the braziers. I know the logic behind it. But I just can’t seem to get it right. I’m 4 attempts in so maybe attempt 5 will be the go.

So far Leda has been my favorite character. I find her story interesting and the whole musician thing is cool. I like these support classes, though I am used to them just giving other units another turn.

Tomorrow I’ll give it another go. I don’t want to lower the difficulty but I may have too just to pass this roadblock.

Princeton alumni have designed what’s called a first-in-the-world device to filter microplastics out of wastewater at scale, and it’s already been deployed in Atlantic City.

These are my thoughts on the matter:

I applaud the employees that pushed back and have spoken out. You guys/gals Rock!! Thank you so dang much!!!

To Andy Yen, you obviously have no flipping clue who your actual customers are. Your views are incompatible with what I thought Proton was. I don't care how inconsequential of a decision you thought it was. That attitude over anything, especially security!?, is the exact opposite of what I thought Proton was when I signed up in 2020. I especially did not expect something like this when I became a buisness level subscriber in 2022. For me to continue using the services of Proton, you need to resign from Proton in any and all capacity.

Furthermore to Proton as an entity. Any and all who shared in this kind of mentality and disregard needs to be scrutinized and removed if necessary. Don't be crazy about it, but you know who NEEDS to go I think.

Look, we all are seeing that AI is here to stay. And it has gotten incredible at coding if I am to believe what I have read. The world is abruptly changing, but that is why now more that ever we need you to move as securely as you possibly can. Yes that still means using every tool at your disposal, but with the utmost concern and scrutiny supporting security and privacy. Even the crazy conspiracy/science fiction would never happen stuff, we're counting on you guys not being susceptible to it. We want privacy and security, not features and shinn-shi-curity.

If that is not the company Proton is striving to be, I will be taking my business elsewhere. I expect many others will be doing so as well. Imagine the fash.crud on top of all this. Don't know why I was sticking around truthfully.

It was my first time out of the house since Sunday, when I went to the hospital to get looked at, and aside from that hospital visit, I hadn’t left the house since Friday night. I’m not contagious anymore, the flu isn’t in me anymore, but my lungs are absolutely shredded. Speaking for ten seconds winds me, and walking even short distances does the same.

My lungs will heal, they’ve done so in the past and they’ll do so in the future. I got a call from a friend who works in a board game shop down the road, called and told me to come get my imports, and I figured I would say hi and spend some time struggling to breathe there in the store.

As I had left, I was taken aback by this dark indigo swipe of paint across a just slightly brighter sky. Sometimes I regret not bringing my formal photography kit out to buy stuff at board game stores when I’m gasping for air, and those regrets were founded here.

It was gorgeous and lovely, and the urban cancer called Tualatin-Valley Highway was taking up the bottom forty percent of what I wanted to shoot. I had to get creative a bit. With a bit of experimentation, I turned the exposure way down, and shot it at a simulated 48mm. Even with the foreground and the disparate noise, all the colors in the frame harmonize around a theme. I touched it up a bit more at home, dimmed the street lights a bit more, made something that accurately reflected what I saw, capturing the beauty of that moment.

Thanks for seeing my work!

Like come on, people are otraged about the most minor stuff, but somehoe can't be bothered to boycot or change the situation with convenience pricig, where same stuff you buy at a store is 10-20x the price per unit.

"Youre taking advantage of my tiredness, making me pay more of my hard-earned money for the privilege of being too tired to prepare my own food/drinks myself, essentially making me work more hours for having worked too many hours and being tired as a resilt of it. So: making me more tired for being tired already"
