  1. New #USlaws requiring #ageverification for online content access are impacting adult users, leading to #privacy concerns and potential #workarounds. While intended to protect minors, these laws often involve third-party vendors processing sensitive identity data, raising security risks and questions about data retention. cnbc.com/2026/03/08/social-med #media #socialmedia

  11. Signal... Why did you break the desktop app? Y'all integrated chat folders, but to only show the first folder, with no folder settings in the production app, and the beta app is not much better. macOS and Linux users also confirmed the issue. My workaround for now is on the Android app moving the All Chats folder to the first/top position, Unreads second (which was the first), and so on, which syncs to the desktop client.

    Of the many minor to medium-size annoyances that come with a modern #Windows 11 installation, the requirement that you sign in with a Microsoft account is one of the most irritating.

  21. Tried Spark and a couple of others. I appreciate Readdle apps (Documents in particular) and Spark offers a lot, but I’m still largely comfortable in Mail.app. Currently experimenting with quoting text from email for tasks and running an action that produces a Gmail search URL from that text. Short story: my email is provided by Gmail; Gmail search is better than Mail.app; as long as I’m able to reference the email associated with a task (easily), I’m okay. #workarounds toolsforthought.social/@jslr/1

  26. Most security teams treat shadow IT — unauthorized tools, services, or workarounds — as a technical risk. And they’re not wrong. Unvetted apps can create vulnerabilities, expose sensitive data, break compliance, and fracture visibility. But underneath the risk lies a more nuanced reality:...

  27. This post's main topic is a "workaround" for the 500 character limit.

    I demonstrate how to put more characters in your post using attached on-point images. These are "screenshots" of the posts that are then later replaced by new text.

    That simple really!

    What do you think?

    Also I did not add hashtag spam to say this is "spam".

    I use it to say "if this is abused" it could be used for spam.
