@adversary The dicks wont even help me get into old email accounts of mine whose passwords ive forgotten

@Laurelai it reminds me of when I wanted to collect something, like stamps, but I was too lazy to actually collect stamps ... so I decided I'd collect flags on my ASIO file instead. ;)

@adversary @Laurelai Their customer service is terrible!!
I'll write it here because they'll read it.

@lilletale @Laurelai Whereas I used them as an example of how to encrypt messages to an entire domain in a recent coding guide instead (because I am that much of a snarky bastard at times). ;)

@adversary @Laurelai Did they give you any feedback on the coding guide?

@lilletale @Laurelai Come on, you *know* they Never Say Anything!

I did get feedback from the DSD (now ASD) a few years ago, though.

@adversary @Laurelai I'm just... Hoping they'll show a sign. You know, just to prove that there's intelligent life out there

Oh, wait, that's something else.

@lilletale @Laurelai All right, here's the crypto guide entertainment:

The last example in that section uses the .mil domain NSA uses for email.

While this bit cites the World's Greatest Secret Agent as a crypto role-model:

@maloki oh no, i dont subtoot, but your toot did inspire my joke

@Laurelai that's what I see subtooting as. Not the other passive aggressive stuff. That's not my style. She says, sneakily planning.. No wait. Nope 👎

@maloki I dont do passive aggression, i prefer overt aggression :3

@chara In civilized countries this is how it works

@Laurelai blegh, sometimes I dunno what sickens me more, the lies the government tells us or the lies it tells itself

@Laurelai @chara The tax prep industry in the U.S. actively lobbies against this. And Republicans are against this because they want folks to think taxes are bad and the difficulty of preparing and filing is just another tool in that propaganda war.
