My dad l, who worked in tech / IT his whole life (retired now) l, had a problem with his ISP. Called to report it and the next day they called him back, got him to install ‘remote support software’, etc. He eventually saw what they were up to and pulled the plug. Turned out 2 guys at the ISP were selling support tickets to the scammers.

That gallery site was an interesting choice for a post on privacy… My phone has an extra mic installed after trying to navigate it.


Children of Ruin paints a glorious picture of the possibilities.


Well, this was of its time, and tbh I was fairly surprised to still find it, but every time I hear about him, I’m reminded of that interview with his father, and this song.


I’m not your buddy, pal.
(that’s another way wars start)
That site stuck so many ads to my phone; I can’t get them off—what solvent should I use?
Volvo EX30 same issue. Are they the same battery components?
