“Keir Starmer’s Labour is now copying ten-year-old Tory election messaging”
by The Canary @thecanaryuk @UKLabour
“The big problem for Labour isn’t just that ‘lesser of two evils’ politics always leads to ruin; it’s that there’s no longer a convincing argument that Labour is a lesser evil”

So, Hegseth's brilliant #cybersecurity strategy involved setting up an unsecured internet line in the #Pentagon for #Signal.
Because who needs national security when you have the #convenience of unsecured #messaging, right?

We're back at it tonight working towards @pidgin 3.0 Experimental 3!! Come on by as we figure out what to do next!!
I maintain that one path out of this may be to use right-wing words to frame left-wing ideas.
Genius needed, but I doubt many use LINE. If you do, maybe you can figure out why I can't send messages from my iPhone to my Android. Video and voice, fine. Text messages get sent but aren't delivered. I've turned off RCS, no difference. It doesn't make sense. What am I missing? Thanks.

I'm hiring a PhD student in Copenhagen, Denmark to do #HCI research on #privacy and #interoperability in messaging apps!
This is a fully funded 3-year position in the Copenhagen campus of Aalborg University. The student will join my project "mInt" (for "messaging interoperability" ;)) and will be co-supervised by me and @nielsvanberkel .
More info and application form here: https://www.stillinger.aau.dk/phd-stillinger/vis-stilling/vacancyId/1219575. Deadline is May 18.
Just like #IRC & #XMPP+#OMEMO and #PGP/MIME will do the same for #GroupChats and #Messaging in general!
My #iPhone #Dock is rather overloaded with encrypted #messaging apps
We need #interoperability to enable a universal #inbox for users who want it!
