Thanks for writing this post! I agree this is important.
it might help you to start behaving as if you’re being watched and things about you are more obvious than they once were
I’ve been banging this drum for a while:
2023-02 Preparing for Less Privacy
2011-04 Giving up on Privacy
A big one is that I’d need to set up a “please allow vibration” exception for every single app, and remember to do this as I added new ones.
Thanks! As
lsanderssays, in my case it’s about pressure, not the surface effect on the skin.
I’m still planning to use Ghiblification (in theory; I haven’t in about a year), but I didn’t think it was necessary here. These are pictures from a festival where it’s common for people to share pictures online after.
That would have large side effects: I don’t want DND always enabled on my phone.
Agreed! Some other of my kids posts along these lines:

And maybe also:
If you want to spend money in an EA way, I think it’s pretty unlikely that feeding future looters is competitive with other EA options. For me, storing food is worth it because I value my and my family’s welfare more than arbitrary people.
I think this is much more of a culture clash than an issue of principle. My board game culture is that players should try to win, which entails both (a) treating the social environment of the game as part of the field of play and (b) understanding which players are your greatest threats and acting accordingly. So to me your opponent is doing exactly what they should. Now, “he’s targeting me and manipulating you all” may be a good strategic move within the game, but outside the game, in my culture, it’s not a valid complaint.
That we have different cultural expectations was really driven home for me when I saw your “when I play Secret Hitler online I absolutely lie all the time, just because it’s fun to sew chaos” below. In my culture taking actions that make you less likely to win because chaos is fun is absolutely not done, and is seen as making the game worse for everyone else. And doing it in a team game where people are trying to decode complex signals and solve a puzzle is beyond the pale for me.
Talking openly about this with your friends, as you discuss below, is good. But mostly my takeaway is that some people shouldn’t play board games with some other people.
Expanded this into a post: Your Supplies Probably Won’t Be Stolen in a Disaster
This probably works, but even this might not be enough if you leave enough scattered clues to allow future AIs to piece together your real identity.
I don’t have any custom instructions set, but thanks for the reminder!
I don’t taste any egg white flavor with these.
That’s pretty different: it’s a conventional egg substitute, and not a precision fermented product.
And then today with:
A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. …
This reads to me as very clearly a threat against the civilian population.

It doesn’t have an eggy flavor, no. That’s a plus for some things, a minus for others.
He followed up yesterday in a briefing with:
every bridge in Iran will be decimated by 12 o’clock tomorrow night, where every power plant in Iran will be out of business — burning, exploding and never to be used again. I mean, complete demolition by 12 o’clock.
It seems extremely unlikely to me that every power plant and bridge are sufficiently key to Iran’s military that they merit destruction, while a threat to destroy all of them is very consistent with economic coercion.
It should work fine for omelets, with the usual downsides of egg-white omelets and with less eggy flavor.
While you could add the powder to cooked pasta or rice it’s expensive as protein powders go and if you’re not trying to use it for its physical properties I doubt it’s worth it?
This should have better fingering than a clarinet while also having less keywork
