Fun fact about proving your citizenship!

My kid was naturalized along with my wife (her mother) a couple years ago. My kid is still a minor, and cannot apply for a certificate of naturalization until she turns 18, and then it's anyone's guess how long the DOGE-neutered State Dept will take to issue her piece of paper.

In other words, you can be naturalized as an infant and have no way to prove it until well after your 18th birthday.

in a matter of convenience straight out of a comic strip, my ergonomic office chair that i use daily has decided to break in a very specific and not fixable way mere months after its warranty expired. any amount of pressure placed upon it from my back and it leans back without resistance; normally it should and it has resisted for the past 3 years providing me with much needed back support whilst at the computer.

as such, i need a replacement asap. i've done a vague quick search and found something that looks like it'd do the job nicely. unfortunately though, cheap as it is, i cant afford to replace it no matter which way i slice it.

£171 / £171

sorry to keep having to make these. this year has fucking sucked financially speaking. im not even confident this chair ive found will sort me out well enough. it just looks vaguely like it matches my personal criteria for a chair and thats good enough. i find searching for this stuff too stressful and confusing otherwise, i just need to get a replacement ordered and sorted quickly as i can. thank you for any and all help.

as @celesteh is concerned for her safety: does anyone know @dikleyt@deadinsi.de and can they check on her and/or confirm that she's okay?

@Gargron The real question is whether Meta’s circumvention of Android’s safeguards for the advertising ID — and their ability to unmask real user identities — qualifies as a criminal offense under Germany’s anti-hacking law (§202a StGB) or similar international laws governing cyberattacks.

What Meta did wasn’t just a violation of GDPR. It involved bypassing built-in technical protections with the intent to extract and link data — potentially personally identifiable information (PII) — to users without their knowledge or consent.

That is the textbook definition of unauthorized access and data exfiltration.

We need to stop framing this as a regulatory issue or a privacy mishap. This was a malicious cyber intrusion, done knowingly and at scale, by a corporation with full awareness of the legal and technical boundaries it was crossing.

It’s time we start treating it as such.
