Cooking something at work on identifying people on Signal. As always, I like to include illustrative screenshots.

Reminder on this TVOD that The Matrix is trans allegory. While this comes through thematically, Lilly Wachowski also highlights the character, Switch, who was written as, "a man in the real world and then a woman in the Matrix." Later, the studio wrote this version out. www.bbc.com/news/newsbea...

It seems Twitter repopulated some old tweets. Ran @blockpartyapp.com again. Seems Twitter isn't making it easy — very glad this service exists.

I would *love* for Bluesky to offer more robust two-factor authentication settings than email (say, an authenticator app or security keys). Hopefully on the roadmap.

A few core 2FA delivery methods:
-SMS text messages: Can be hijacked if someone takes your phone number, but better than nothing!
-Authentication apps (e.g., Google Authenticator): Much better, but still be vulnerable to entry into fraudulent (phishing) webpages
-Security keys (e.g., YubiKeys): Nice
