  I automate the annoying stuff. Slow phone? I debloat it in 60 seconds. Gmail chaos? Script cleans it daily at 2am. Teams shows 'Away'? Not anymore. Scripts that fix problems permanently. Buy once, use forever.

  Hey Sir Feature Suggestion for @thefundedroom 🚀 I would like to suggest a feature that could be very beneficial for both creators and users. Currently, referrals only work through referral links. The problem is that many users already have an account on the platform. If they want to support a creator and purchase an account through them, they often can't do so because they have already signed up. A better solution would be to introduce Creator Codes. For example, my creator code could be: BHUNU When a user purchases an account, they could simply enter the creator code at checkout. It wouldn't matter how or when they originally signed up. The purchase would automatically be attributed to that creator. This would provide several benefits: ✅ Existing users could support their favorite creators without creating a new account. ✅ Users would not need to create a new Gmail account just to use a referral link. ✅ Creators could easily track how many customers purchased through their code. ✅ Creators could provide better support and guidance to users who joined through them. Another advantage is that you wouldn't need to offer discounts all the time. Users could simply use the creator code to support their preferred creator. Then, whenever there is a festival, special event, or promotional campaign, you could directly apply any discount or special offer to those creator codes. This would make the system simple, flexible, and easy for everyone to use. Many platforms already use similar systems successfully, including brokers and trading platforms such as Exness, and others. It is simple, user-friendly, and much more convenient than requiring users to sign up again through a referral link. I believe this feature would greatly improve the referral system and create more opportunities for creators while making the process easier for customers.

  If Your Gmail Isn't Secure, Your Bank Account Could Be at Risk. Your Gmail is connected to your banking apps, UPI accounts, social media, shopping websites and many other online services. If cyber criminals gain access to your Gmail, they may be able to reset passwords, intercept important emails and take control of other accounts linked to it. That's why securing your Gmail is one of the most important steps in protecting your digital life. Use a strong, unique password, enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA), keep your recovery email and phone number updated, and review your login activity regularly. Your Gmail is more than an email account. It's the key to your digital identity. Protect it before someone else does.

  @DaveHowe @Tsartoshi Proton Mail has put its server in Norway, because it did not trust Swiss datacenters anymore. so that was (at leas commercially) a good move. They have a number of integrated services. They are safer than gmail or other providers. Tutanota in Germany has similar anonymity.

  @EthanLevins2 @SteakMyClaim Is the statement of grok true? It’s passed today, yeah. The European Parliament has extended the temporary regulation (Chat Control 1.0) until April 2028. It was a weird vote — 314 against, 276 for — but because they needed an absolute majority of 361 to block it, it went through. How it works: it remains voluntary and server-side. It only applies to apps where the provider can already read the messages anyway — think Instagram DMs, Messenger, Gmail, Snapchat, Discord. They do hash-matching on known CSAM and some AI for new stuff. Real end-to-end encrypted chats (like Signal, or the default E2EE in WhatsApp) are explicitly excluded. They can’t and aren’t allowed to scan those. The big mandatory version with possible client-side scanning on your phone, that fight is still ongoing.

  Peter Girnus 🦅 (@gothburz) reported 19 minutes ago

  I am the content reviewer for a messaging platform in the European Union. This morning a majority of the European Parliament voted against the law that gives me my job. 314 against. 276 for. More of them wanted it gone than wanted it kept. It stayed anyway, because killing it needed 361, and the ones who wanted it dead only numbered 314. So the law a majority opposed is now the law, until 2028. That is not a glitch in the democracy. That is the democracy, working exactly as built. They call it Chat Control. That is the real name. Nobody made it up. Let me tell you what I actually do, because the law is easier to love in the abstract. A machine scans private messages. Instagram. Discord. Snapchat. Gmail. The photo your mother sends is not a secret to it. When the machine is sure, it acts. When it is not sure, it flags. Below the machine's certainty there is a queue, and the queue is me. They passed an exemption this morning for encrypted chats. It changed nothing, because we never scanned those. The exemption guards a door that was never open, so that you would feel the door. It is the most honest line in the law: a protection for the thing that was never at risk, written entirely for the feeling. We are told the false-positive rate is very low. It is. But a very low rate of a very large number is my entire day. A fraction of a fraction of a percent, across a continent, and I have never once reached the bottom of the queue. So here is what I review, to protect the children. A mother photographing a rash for a pediatrician. A sunburn. Two teenagers who believe they are alone. A man showing a doctor his own body. A birthday. A beach. 99 times in 100 it is someone's ordinary private life, opened on my screen, cleared, tagged reviewed, and the next one loads before I have finished exhaling. There is a sentence printed above my station. Detection is protection. I have read it 10,000 times a shift and I have stopped seeing it, which is how you know it works. I know the numbers, because I have read the same reports the lawmakers read. The police say nearly half of what reaches them was never criminal to begin with. The Commission that ordered all of this admits, in its own filing, that it cannot show a single additional child rescued. 99 of every 100 things the largest platform reports are images we already had. We are not finding new harm. We are re-finding old harm, forever, and filing the re-finding under protection. And 4 of every 10 investigations my queue feeds end at a minor. The children we are protecting and the children we are investigating are, very often, the same children. The survivors wrote to the Parliament. The actual survivors of the thing the law is named after. They said they needed privacy to find justice, that this took it, that their safe places were being emptied to build my queue. Their letter did not have a queue to go into, so it went nowhere. Mine is the only inbox in this system that never empties. The people who actually trade the thing we are hunting never come near my queue. They are on the Darknet, where nothing is scanned, because they are not amateurs. The machine that reads your mother's messages cannot reach the one room where the harm actually lives. I review the innocent because the innocent are the only ones still using the front door. I want to tell you the part I was not supposed to understand, but the queue teaches you eventually. The queue was never meant to catch anyone. The point is that you now pause. Before the rash, the sunburn, the two teenagers, there is a half-second where you wonder who reads this. That half-second is the product. The queue is the alibi. The pause is the win. I am not the surveillance. I am the receipt that proves the surveillance is gentle. The old kind needed a camera in the room. Mine needs the phone you bought, the one you unlock with your face. This law expires in 2028. Nothing it built expires. In September they vote on the next one, the one that reads the encrypted messages too, on your device, before the lock closes. I have been told to expect more queue. At the standup my manager says my numbers protect children, and I have stopped hearing the sentence as a sentence. They told you it was to protect the children. The police say no. The Commission says no. The survivors say no. I have the reports open in the other window. Then I go back to the queue, because that is what the queue is for, and I am fast, and I am cheap, and the machine needed somewhere to put the private life of a continent. The children are protected. I have seen everything else.

  ALWAYS follow up on your emails if you don't hear back. Gmail spam filters are extremely aggressive. If you have lower than expected inbox placement despite having a good domain reputation or just an individual, make it a habit to send follow-up emails. Just a single follow-up on a thread can bump you into the inbox. Which is how I discovered the problem in the first place.

  Unfortunately, the situation gets even worse. We really need to talk about Session Cookies. Web browsers don't just save your usernames and passwords. They also save active login sessions so you don't have to type in your credentials every single time you open a new tab for Gmail, Twitter, or your bank account. Think about how annoying the internet would be if you had to log in on every single page click. Browsers use cookies to keep you logged in. Modern Info-stealer malware is specifically designed to grab all of these session cookies right alongside your password database.

  You can turn a raw list of names into verified emails without ever logging into a single data provider. Start with the problem. You've built a list of people to reach: names, companies, maybe a LinkedIn link. What you're missing is the one thing you need to contact them, their email. Finding it is enrichment. No single provider has everyone. Each one builds its database its own way, so one covers a big slice of your list and has nothing on the rest. Bet everything on one tool and you leave half your list on the floor. So you don't. You stack providers cheapest to most expensive and run them in order. The cheap one clears most of the list for pennies. Everyone it misses falls to the next provider, then the next. The expensive aggregator only ever touches the few names nobody else could find. That's the waterfall. Each source catches what the one above it dropped, and your cost stays low because the priciest tool barely runs. Verify every email before you send. Skip it and it costs you: a dead address bounces, and enough bounces train Gmail to file you under spam. An unverified guess is worse than an empty cell. Set it up once in Claude Code, the provider order and a spend cap, then point the agent at your list. It runs the whole cascade, verifies every address, stops at your cap, and gives you one clean file. Every row comes back with the email, the source that found it, and whether it cleared verification. The few nobody could place get flagged, so you skip them and move on. Starting it was the only part that needed you.

  "Everything runs locally, your data never leaves your device" — sure, but local was never the threat model. Point 300 agents at untrusted web pages while they drive your logged-in Chrome over CDP and you've assembled the lethal trifecta by hand: private session access, attacker-controlled content, and a way to act on it. Brave already showed the shape of this on Comet back in August — hidden text in a spoiler tag talked the agent into opening Gmail and pasting a one-time passcode into a public reply. Keeping the model on-device doesn't fix that; the malicious instruction ships inside the page it was told to read.

  You changed your phone number last year. Someone else has it now. Every time your bank, Gmail, or WhatsApp sends a code to that number, they get it. Not you. Princeton tested 259 recycled US numbers. 171 could still log into someone's old accounts. Here's how to fix it in 10 minutes 👇

  Hiring a random AI dev to "transform" your business is the single most expensive mistake a founder can make right now. Not because it costs 10K. Because it costs you 2 months believing the problem is solved while it quietly isn't. I've watched this exact ending happen to enough founders this year that I could time it. You've been sold a lie dressed up as convenience. A $100/month Cowork subscription does not run a company. It runs a HOBBY. You could hand every founder the best model in the world tomorrow and this problem doesn't move an inch. What happens at 2am when something breaks and nobody's watching it? If you're clearing $500K a year off a Gmail inbox, a shared Google Sheet, and a Notion board, fine, plug in whatever you want. You never had problems deep enough to expose the gap. If you're running $2M through six people, three vendors, and a CRM nobody actually trusts, you already know exactly how deep this goes. Even "AI project management" for ten people is not wiring Fireflies into Claude into ClickUp and calling it done. A real project manager does not hand out tasks. He knows who's on the other end of every single one. The guy who's missed three of his last four deadlines and still swears he's on track. The one who goes quiet the moment he's stuck instead of raising his hand. The one who needs the deadline said twice, and the one who never forgives you for saying it twice. An AI reading a transcript knows none of that. It's a faster to-do list. It has never met your team. It never will. You already live this. You still carry 90% of the real weight whether you've hired three people or thirty. Every hard call still lands on your desk, every time. That is not a hiring problem. That is a system that was never taught who anyone actually is. Here's the fix, stripped to what it actually is: One file. Per person. Not a personality writeup. → What they're good at → Exactly how they fail, dated, specific, tracked over months → The rule that follows directly from the failure. Not policy. Consequence. This is the Operating Brain. Not a slide in a deck. A file that gets corrected. A competitor can steal the idea over a weekend. He cannot steal the file. The file only exists after the same mistake gets caught and corrected three separate times, months apart, on a real person. That's the moat nobody is pricing in. Not the model. Not the folder. Not the prompt. What's described and what's actually running are the same thing. Your job is building the business. The Brain's job is never forgetting who's actually in it. Centralize the data first. Build the brain before you build anything else. Everyone chasing the shiny dashboard is going to find this out the expensive way.

  The European Union 🇪🇺 just legalized scanning your private messages. The vote: 314 MEPs voted against it. 276 voted for it. It passed anyway. Rejecting it required an absolute majority of all 720 seats (361 votes). Not a majority of the room. So every empty chair on the last sitting day before summer recess counted as a yes. Classic @vonderleyen. More MEPs showed up to kill Chat Control 1.0 than to keep it. It became law regardless. Live until 2028. Platforms can now scan unencrypted messages again: Gmail, Instagram DMs, Discord, Snapchat, Xbox. WhatsApp and Signal got carved out. For now. This is how rights slowly disappear. Not in one dramatic moment. In procedural fine print, on a slow news day, while everyone is distracted with the World Cup and the USA-Iran war. The mandatory version is still coming. Client-side scanning, the one that breaks encryption itself. Trilogue resumes in September. Chat Control 2.0 is coming. Watch that one.

  @joinpeanut @zzMaruf I also faced this issue when I was trying to create my account for the first time. Since I was in a hurry, my primary Gmail was selected, but the passkey was mistakenly created under my secondary Google account. The problem is that I don't use my secondary Gmail regularly. With most other exchanges and applications, users can easily add, remove, or update passkeys whenever needed. However, this system doesn't seem to offer that flexibility. So, what is the solution in this situation if passkeys cannot be managed or transferred?
