I did read the article, and I fail to see how this is different than other implementations.

“In a call with Beeper’s Eric Migicovsky, that’s exactly what I wanted to find out, and it seems the answer comes down to trust. Beeper as it stands today, where everything is running on Mac Minis, is being done “in the open.” The backend is largely open-source, and the company has aimed to be straightforward and transparent with every update along the way. Migicovsky adds that, soon, Beeper will be doing a full in-public security review.”

So the difference is “you can trust us”. Sounds like BS to me, you’re still routing your messages through an endpoint that is someone else’s Mac mini.

Using something like this compromises e2e encryption for you and anyone that you talk to. It’s actively inviting a man-in-the-middle into all of your chats.

It’s a shitty thing to do to your friends.

Just use Signal if you care about the green bubble stuff.

Or just buy an iPhone if that kind of thing matters to you

Good

It was a pretty bad idea, not only a privacy risk for users but for anyone those users interact with. You no longer get the guarantee that your iMessages are end to end encrypted since anyone using the service puts a man in the middle for everyone they communicate with.

But why even bother? If you’re privacy conscious and still insist on a chromium based browser just use Brave.

Use things that respect your privacy by default. Otherwise you have to be in the habit of actively opting out whenever new updates or features are added and anybody who would be that diligent about it is probably already using Firefox or Brave anyway.

Edge is entirely as privacy violating as chrome

Consider Obsidian.md

It’s basically a lightweight system for organizing markdown files, lots of great organization and search features and lots of available extensions

The adaptation so bad the director refused to even put his name on it.

Do you drink coffee? Because caffeine helps a ton when you’re on a med break.

I have many friends with nipple piercings.

You can’t tell through a shirt.

Nobody is scrutinizing the shape of your nipples through a t shirt

Definitely a tick

If it’s possible in your area, I’ve had an easier time dealing with an independent pharmacy than with any of the big chains.

I go to a small pharmacy that is located inside a larger hospital. They have more limited hours than the big chains but they’ve always had my meds and been easy to get info from over the phone.

I’ve had lots of shit experiences with CVS/Walgreens/Costco

Rock Climbing is a sport that gives you a lot of control over risk. Once you understand the technical safety aspects, you can evaluate risks of a particular course of action.

Climbing mellow routes with a top rope is quite low risk.

It’s a longevity sport, at crags and gyms it’s pretty normal to see people over 50 still at it.

I've been on Vyvanse 50mg for about 6 months. It works very well for me but has my resting heart rate sitting close to 100 bpm. My unmedicated resting heart rate is 80 and has been since I was a child. So I do have a naturally high heart rate. 20 bpm increase seems reasonably normal, but if I get stressed then it spikes more and so does my blood pressure.

My doctor suggested adding guanfacine taken once a day before going to sleep as it supposedly lowers blood pressure and is used on it's own to treat ADHD through a different mechanism.

If I could have the benefit of my vyvanse dose without the cardiovascular side effects, that would be sweet. Does anyone have experience adding guanfacine to an already effective dose of stimulants?
