Jesus is HUNG.

fam, Easter is this weekend… show some sensitivity… _/jk

Why is Jesus grabbing that guy’s neck with one hand, and his own crotch with the other?

I admire this too, tho one drawback is that it doesn’t include “image” results. (bc it’s really html-focused as well as non-js-focused…)

So there’s a formal/professional approach and there’s an informal approach.

Formally, there are fields like Risk Management aka Risk Analysis; in these fields there are various frameworks and approaches for things like threat models and risk assessments. This is more than most of us need.

Informally “this is what I want to protect myself against” is indeed a good way of thinking about it. You can write something up for yourself, or you can just think it through. If the threat model helps you use your time / resources wisely, then it’s a good threat model.

Reminds me to check out lynx again.

you can make a dummy Facebook account and only login using their website from behind a VPN.

After a couple days Facebook will say you are suspicious and demand that you upload a government ID (and/or take a “video selife” or something similar.)

Trump won by 1.5% and the media acts like it was a Reagan-esque 1980 sweep.

Agreed. Every president tries to pretend that they have a mandate. But consider:

Wisconsin has 10 electoral votes. If 14,699 people in Wisconsin had voted differently, Trump would have lost Wisconsin. Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee will fit that many people.

Michigan has 15 electoral votes. If 40,052 people in Michigan had voted differently, Trump would have lost Michigan. Comerica Park in Detroit will fit that many people.

Pennsylvania has 19 electoral votes. If 60,134 people in Pennsylvania had voted differently, Trump would have lost Pennsylvania. Beaver Stadium in University Park will fit that many people.

Without those electoral votes, Trump would have lost the election. That was the size of his victory: 2 stadiums and an arena.

Take a look at !fosai@lemmy.world … they have lots of info in the sidebar and it’s moderately active so people will probably answer questions.

Instead of doing LinkedIn, look at individual companies’ web pages for their careers section. Make a temp email, look at LinkedIn or other job sites to see who’s hiring, then look at those companies’ web pages.

Create a dedicated gmail account.

Great advice. I got a cheap Chromebook, a burner flip-phone, and use Google docs, meet, email, etc only when on that system.

This. Write an email that says “Happy belated New Year…” and says you’re looking for a job and what kind of job, and send it to everyone you know in your field.

I’m wondering if this person reported me

As others have suggested, it was almost certaintly FB’s automated BS, not a report by your friend. Back around 2018 I made an account bc the martial arts group I was with had a FB group. But I didn’t attach a phone number, and I was using ublock and noscript and didn’t add a profile photo. After a week or so FB said I was suspicious and demanded I upload a government ID. No way. So instead I just made a new account every time I wanted to see the FB group.

If I were to try this again, I would:

• run Chrome in a Virtual Machine with no addons. Use that VM only for Facebook.
• Attach to that account a prepaid phone number ($40 for phone, $20 for 3 months) that I have for these situations.
• Put a profile photo of myself wearing a full-face halloween mask, or a drawing of a face maybe.
• Use a realistic nickname (for my first-name) that my friends would recognize.
• Connect through wireless at a cafe.

Then I would contact everyone on FB I wanted to get in touch with, and give them some non-FB kind of contact info, and ask them for the same. I might chat with them on FB for as long as I could, follow their groups, etc. while knowing that I might get labelled “suspicious” and removed at any time.

I see what you did there.
