  ‘Scammers have figured out that #PayPal lets anyone send small amounts of money to anyone else, and that PayPal will dutifully email the recipient a notification. The scammer sends you a payout of, say, one Hungarian forint — about a quarter of a cent. PayPal's system then automatically generates and sends you a real, legitimate, fully-authenticated email confirming the transaction.’ #scam #scammers https://www.tedcromwell.com/blog/that-pending-paypal-charge-email-is-a-scam-even-though-...

  Gee, Office Depot, it's helpful if you don't use a bogus scheme at the front of your links in your ads. hhttp: is not a protocol any of my programs recognize.

  “We all know what #gentrification looks like IRL — boxy, corporate-owned apartment complexes, places to get a quick bowl for lunch, streets that are dubbed "cleaner" and "safer" (even at the expense of the people who used to live there). But what does gentrification look like online? We’re talking to Jessa Lingel, who studies digital culture …about her argument that the #internet has become gentrified, and that we're all suffering the consequences.” h...

  A joy. MacBook (2017) only has one USB. It plays role of USB and power. Battery only lasts a couple of hours. Currently a race to get Linux installed before I can plug it in. Should have topped it up completely before starting this process, but I honestly did not think install would take this long. First step was getting Ubuntu Budgie live to show up with the “Next” button on screen. Default resolution it is off bottom of screen. 🤨

  Argh, too many things require rt-click, and this #MacBook won’t do it when I need. In #Budgie, trying to pin program to dock. Supposed to rt-click and pin it when it is open. Ctrl-click is supposed to simulate rt-click, but it doesn’t. Look for solutions. mouseemu is supposed to help, but cannot find it. Finally find on a parallels forum that you can use two finger tap to trigger a right click. Well, shoot if it can tell a two-finger tap, why can’t it tell a tap in the lower right. 🫠

  This snippet of text is clearly something I wrote, but I don't know what I was doing, but it's clearly me. I was headed somewhere... "One of the creative things we did with media studies in the last quarter of the 20th century was to recognize that alternative and even oppositional readings--say, the work of Fiske in analyzing Cagney and Lacey from a lesbian lens or Harlequin romances as works of female empowerment."
