Notices by Srol (srol@mellified.men)

I still cannot believe an app like Signal that advertises itself as a secure and private platform sends notifications if someone in your contacts starts using Signal.

It was in the children's section of the library. Details I remember:

* It took place on a generation colony ship in the final generation before arrival at a new Earthlike planet.
* Almost all the adults had died in a hull breach on the bridge.
* One of the last surviving adults had left the kids to look for supplies on another part of the ship.

Facebook translated the word "civilization" in a Malaysian friend's post to "society cuddle"

This deli actually used to be the Hollywood Video where I worked when I was 19. It's changed a lot.

The Guardian sent me a physical letter (from a UK address no less) asking me to subscribe to their email newsletters. That's one way to get spam around the filter I guess.

Save your recipes. Don't rely on them just being there when you Google them.

So a group of NPR stations just bought my favorite podcast app, Pocket Casts. Very mixed feelings about this.

I like that:
- nonprofit organizations are getting more active in the space.

I don't like that:
- an app I use that used to not be affiliated with a content producer now is.

I'm TERRIFIED that:
- they made a former Clear Channel executive the CEO
