@alice@lgbtqia.space Sort of off-topic but I've been meaning to ask. What's your opinion on bypass tools? I've got the Covert Companion but a lot of the tools feel too specific to be much use. I feel like I'd struggle to remember which locks are vulnerable to the knife attack, or the comb. Feels like an exercise in memorisation that I'm just not up to. So I was going to start writing down which vulnerability affects which locks/brands as I come across them. (So far, everything is comb-able, and that's kinda sad) Will you be featuring them at all?

@HeavenlyPossum@kolektiva.social "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing" But why do we do nothing? I know why. Remember Aaron Bushnell. He protested nonviolently without hurting anyone else. The story in the media was not about Israel but mental health. Remember Snowden. The story in the media was about national security and china/russia spying. Not about the surveillance state. Remember the Black Panthers. The story in the media was about the threat of violence. Not from the police who KILLED them, but from the people who carried rifles like they were told was permitted. Remember Kent State. The story in the media was not about Vietnam. It was not about the killing. It was about radicalisation on college campuses. THE MEDIA. "The revolution will not be televised"

@bytebro@mastodonapp.uk You hit all the sore spots I knew would come up. Yeah, I recently was guided into the observation that LPL is a bit fash. I won't be doing business with them anymore. And no, the Covert Companion isn't worth the price. My cheapo set was lost for years, that's why I got it. I have since found them, they are superior, and just as easy to put in a pocket. @alice@lgbtqia.space

@sb@metroholografix.ca Yeah, if you're not doing it, you're going to be left behind!

@davidgerard@circumstances.run What was that? "Free palestine"? Wait! Wait! Don't shoot! I was just asking questions! 🏃🔫👮

@alice@lgbtqia.space Accurate. These were all the locks in the locker room at work. Nobody's too adventurous, mostly masterlock, some cheaper than masterlock. I also found an Abus on the floor. The same model we use for supply cabinet and document storage security. Was surprised that a comb worked on that, too.

@ppxl@social.tchncs.de Can't help but see AOC here. Had to check it hadn't been edited.

@hellomiakoda Ethanol degrades into water after some time. Old gasoline is literally watered down. "During storage, fuel will tend to oxidize; it will become “sour”, and may absorb water from condensation. " (I had to check my facts)

@Quasit That's an activist. They're being actively anti-misogynist. That's a good thing, but there are more tactful ways to communicate to a stranger. I agree with them, but I don't think it's worth bothering you over, in this case. Just try to be mindful of everything 😉

@Quasit Great recommendation. Don't get discouraged. 👍

@GrapheneOS@grapheneos.social Eventually, the largest donors will come to you and ask for favors in exchange for continued support. All we ask is that you refuse to do that, no matter how much it costs you. Publicly air their request when it inevitably comes.

@HeavenlyPossum@kolektiva.social "Let's not jump to conclusions!" No, let's do.

@Mannanan@mas.to More people voted for the other guy. Be mad at them for a change. We were all forced to support kamala. And held our nose and voted for her anyway. But all that got me was blamed.

@Mannanan@mas.to The ones who didn't, did. (Not arguing with you. That is to say, I disagree and let's leave it at that.)

@balu@muenster.im fash-ist fascist And I say "a bit" because I'm going off of vibes more than hard evidence. I'm sure someone else could point to a specific example. I just feel it in the types of jokes he chooses to make sometimes.

@balu@muenster.im It's extremely subtle in the LockpickingLawyer channel. The McNallyOfficial channel is where it's more apparent, but still difficult to pick up on.
