My subordinate is quite proud at the code AI produces based off his prompts. I don't use AI personally, but it is surely a tool. Don't know why one would be proud at the work they didn't do and can't explain though. I have to manage the AI use to a "keep it simple" level. Use AI if there is a use case, not just because it is there to be used...

My credit card provider support team said they have done everything they can on their end to try and approve my number but are receiving some sort of bounce back from jmp.chat carrier. They suggested it may be a "phone carrier short code block". Any thoughts on this? @singpolyma@lemmy.ml I can still receive automated calls from them, but not texts. As stated in the OP, I imagine it is still on their end since there are some other services whose code texts work fine for. My credit card peovider is not the only one it doesn't work for, either.

!! I love LilyPond. Found in back in 2010 when I installed Ubuntu for the first time and wanted an alternative to Finale...first OSS software I probably knowingly used. I felt like a real coder typing my music. Frescobaldi is a nice compliment to LilyPond. I still use LilyPond to this day

Femme fatale! I wonder how this would have played out if it weren't for that girl at the hostel flirting with him, wanting to see the man behind the mask.

Latin: I'm reading at a level of a second year student. Noun and adjective declensions are solid, but I am trying to hone in on different tenses of complicated verb forms, such as imperfect passive conjunctive. I can only speak Latin with small phrases derived from vocabulary and familiar texts I've read. My speech is quite limited since there is no one around me that has an interest in Latin, so I have to piece together and memorize what I want to say before saying it.

Ancient Greek: I know only the alphabet.

Both: I am a self learner in my adult years and did not take either language via schooling.

Freedom of speech is good. White supremacists or any other group ideological supporters will always find a way to communicate and share their message, regardless of the century, technology, or censorship. Frankly, doing this openly on X/Twitter versus some obscure unknown forum or encrypted platforn is a positive. Social media as a whole is susceptible to ideological campaigns from groups and other countries, not just X/Twitter.

Thanks for enlightening me. That is certainly concerning. I am not knowledgable enough to say if eSIM would be outside the scope of that attack. There are some differences in how the tech is implemented, but heck my eSIM still connects to the cell tower at the end of the day (and to multiple carriers, at that, unlike physical SIM). If there is a surface area, there is a chance for attack vectors.

What security risks are you considering for physical SIM?

You can keep your cell number with jmp.chat. Call over wifi or data. They offer eSIM. View text messages on any device/program with XMPP support. 2FA works 100% like normal unlike VoIP. All data, calls, texts are routed through their VPN first, then the cell network. Any other inhouse XMPP chat not going to networks stay within XMPP. I have no affiliation with jmp.chat, I am satisfied with the service.

I can see this being useful for young children who need access to information but whose parents don't want them in creepy pockets of the internet.

Gold and silver.
