It would make for very interesting notes if you would share some of your memories of how it was back then.
I do remember some stuff from my teenage years andyoundg adulthood. Pre 2006 let's say:
We would use 'gay' to insult people and it was perfectly acceptable lol.
Pedophiles were hated and seen as the most evil people (today mainstream society sees them as sick or victims)
Trans culture was not a thing. Coming out as gay was rare and a big event for a gay person.
It was completely taboo for a man to go in the women's bathroom
There was no such thing as non binary. Mammals are XX or XY and everyone understood that.
It was hard to find porn.
No one would talk about racial issues. Blacks were not victims for being blacks and whites were not deemed oppressors.
Giving promotions at a job was entirely based on performance. There was no such thing about hiring quotas of blacks or quotas of women.
No one understood what money is, what FIAT is.
People trusted the government and public health agencies.
I never met anyone that did not take their recommended vaccines. Everyone was vaccinated.
People thought the media was neutral. Their bias was way harder to notice.
Movies were good.
Everyone and their mothers were not on antidepressants or anti anxiety pills.
Buying a house one day and having children was something perceived as easily achievable.
Many people dreamed of making it in big cities. A lot of people were moving from rural areas to bigger cities.
You did not need a passport to drive to Canada.
Having a net worth of 1 million dollars was deemed almost impossible to achieve.
No one knew about Hayek, Friedman, Bastiat and the Austrian school of economics.
There were more white people around. There was like 1 Arab and 3 blacks at my high school. At the time I did not know what an Arab/Muslim was. I am not saying this is good or bad. Anyone that supports freedom I like (black, arab,indian, white). It's just something I noticed.
Almost no one knew that processed food was poison.
To call someone a Nazi/far right was a big deal. That word was used with a lot of restraint.
Michael Moore had credibility
The climate scam was not yet completely mainstream but on it's way.
No one was celiac (gluten intolerant)
No Alcoholic beer did not exist
Weed was illegal
A lot of people did not believe that evil exist. They thought it was just genuine intellectual disagreements
The term bullying was not yet used
No one was Autistic
Going to college was considered prestigious
You'll be next

What is nostr:npub15xd2mmjnh3caykh77djsv73e0zkrp42jp5mwerx8f4m6su40wdvss7t3l3 ?
It's hard to say.
It's a new kind of social app, that's part NomadList, part Meetup, part Instagram, Google Places and Trip Advisor.
Some might say "this is not a good thing" bc people don't know how to categorise it, which is a fair criticism, but I'd argue, there was also no way to really describe Facebook or Instagram when they first came onto the scene.
Building something NEW requires that you discover what you are along the way. Especially if you're trying to fundamentally transform an industry. If you just want to build another widget or app - sure - it helps to solve a very narrow problem, and position it in a way that's very easy to relate back to something that exists.
But...if your aim is to do something both new, and transformative, you have to push boundaries and build things in a way that makes more intuitive sense, than logical sense.
That being said, it's got to be done in stages, with each stage delivering some form of very clear & precise value.
This week, we'll roll out the first version of Satlantis at nostr:npub167n5w6cj2wseqtmk26zllc7n28uv9c4vw28k2kht206vnghe5a7stgzu3r which is basically a "City Home Page" derived from social content on Nostr.
Anyone can follow a city, post content about anything in a city, search for & join events, find people in that city, connect with them directly, learn about a city (scores, stats, gallery) and see a dynamic feed with content people are posting on OTHER Nostr apps (if they hashtag the city).
In the coming weeks and months, we'll be rolling out rich user profiles, a feature rich merchant map with some really cool review & content features, and much more.
Stay tuned.
Great ! Wishing you great succès with this
#GrapheneOS receives fourth Android Security Acknowledgement of the year. This time we are credited for moving wipe-without-reboot to the stock OS.
CVE-2024-32896 which is marked as being actively exploited in the wild in the June 2024 Pixel Update Bulletin is the 2nd part of the fix for CVE-2024-29748 vulnerability we described here:
None of this is actually Pixel specific.
Bulletin:
https://source.android.com/docs/security/overview/acknowledgements
Attribution to us:
https://source.android.com/docs/securi
CVE-2024-32896 and CVE-2024-29748 refer to the same vulnerability of interrupting reboot for wipes via the device admin API, which applies to all devices.
CVE-2024-32896 is a full fix in AOSP as part of Android 14 QPR3. It's not at all Pixel specific.
This is being widely incorrectly reported in tech news coverage. Pixel Update Bulletins are almost entirely patches for vulnerabilities which apply to other devices too. Android Security Bulletins are the list of what other OEMs are required to fix, not the full list of patches.
We explained this in our previous thread:
https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/112204437363495338
CVE-2024-29748 was a mitigation for the issue implemented in the Pixel bootloader. Full solution is implementing wipe-without-reboot, which is now a standard feature in Android 14 QPR3 released as part of AOSP.
Our 2024052100 release backported the upstream wipe-without-reboot feature being shipped in the June 2024 release of Android (Android 14 QPR3): https://grapheneos.org/releases#2024052100.
We extended it to make it more robust via extra redundancy in our 2024060400 release:
https://grapheneos.org/releases#2024060400.
There were 2 main issues:
1) memory not wiped when booting firmware-based fastboot mode, allowing exploiting it to get previous OS memory
2) AOSP device admin API depends on reboot-to-recovery to wipe before Android 14 QPR3
Neither of these issue is being fixed outside Pixels yet.
Each month, Android has a new version released. These are the monthly, quarterly (QPR) and yearly releases. The baseline monthly security patches are NOT the monthly releases of Android. They're backports of a SUBSET of the patches with High/Critical severity, not all patches.
Most devices only ship the backported patches to older Android releases (12, 13 and 14). Pixels ship the monthly, quarterly and yearly releases. Other devices will mostly get the 2nd vulnerability fix when they update to Android 15. They'll have to fix the 1st issue on their own.
We have a thread about forensic company capabilities at:
based on leaked Cellebrite documentation. Shows GrapheneOS does a much better job than iOS/Android blocking exploits and only Pixel 6 and later or iPhone 12 and later successfully stop brute forcing.
You guys thé best TY

Last week, my sister nostr:npub10tct4d5td04frptyls4mk0nf7v28tzs6qza7ur4dfhlkw88y0v5sfzy70g and I participated in the HRF Financial Freedom retreat and met incredible people working to empower the most vulnerable. We come from Rwanda, a dictatorship where financial freedom is limited by the state. It monitors & controls transactions to prevent the funding of human rights activists, dissidents, opposition movements and journalists. There is a solution to this and we need to educate our people about the power of Bitcoin to circumvent the financial and economic challenges imposed by the dictatorship. AND bring everyone here on #Nostr nostr:npub1trr5r2nrpsk6xkjk5a7p6pfcryyt6yzsflwjmz6r7uj7lfkjxxtq78hdpu
Je pensais que tout allait bien au Rwanda maintenant? Depuis plusieurs années.
