From @simonw when still at University and loving on Python, at the time thought too quirky for most (ha! now huh?) to the infamous Frank Abegnale when still with the FBI in cybercrimes - passwords should not exist as we enter 2023. Much less 2 factor authentication voice or SMS?

Changing my phone number would not be so big a deal but for the hours I can sit at the desk, around two 3-5 times a week, making me slow as well as sick and old (truth lol) the 2 factor authentication when only the phone number for voice or SMS verification? That is a nightmare

I don't know what to do with this. I can't do it anymore, they took my money, they have my number, I am locked out of web sites, I have a major medical situation here, and Veteran's day and Ray's birthday would have been next week. I just give up on hoping for any help, anywhere.

I tried, two weeks. The only human (I think) to respond were on Twitter, where I guess Elon Musk is the only one who gets real attention. If screaming were valued, I'd have support. No support. Two fucking weeks running around to even @Walmart "We aren't Tracfone support" yeah.

So @VerizonSupport and @Tracfone won't restore my number but keep sending me to automated support, walmart, or lying, taken money for nothing left me aging, disabled and alone with no service and won't restore my number essentially locking me out of 2f auth. Seriously fucked up.

With what phone? And how is this different than the two weeks I've tried using Google Voice sent to the one number I have? Tracfone is endangering my life here, people. NO assistance for the disabled, aging, not at all wealthy as in poor? A Veteran's Widow no less. Shame on them.

TWO Weeks and nothing is sorted. I paid, I paid, I paid again, I paid for nothing, no one, no support. As my friends here know I am disabled, alone, aging and without service for TWO WEEKS despite doing everything I can for their excellent nothingness. PLEASE help me get help.

@tfwirelessInc @Verizon @VerizonSupport ALL I NEED ARE APN NUMBERS AND ACTIVATION. I can't receive a message at my number with tracfone because it's going to a dead handset that I cannot retrieve. Did everything support wanted, including SIM and visit to @Walmart you need to help

To remember the most optimistic scientist in the cosmos I'm switching my Lorem Ipsum to Carl Sagan Ipsum today. Sadly, He died of a bone marrow failure condition, MDS, similar to my bone marrow aplasia but the treatments were not yet available. Let's Get astrophysical with Mr. X!

Bad browser, bad browser, unlawful, chaotic
Browser wars are always cathartic
We clean out the cobs

All apps and sites render the right way again!

What's legal in Arizona? Domestic terrorism. Former AZ Congresswoman @GabbyGiffords shot in head campaigning at Safeway, gunman left 6 dead, 12 wounded, she made it. Husband Senator Mark Kelly (D) running to keep seat.
Is this to you socially acceptable?

For more information on the philology and lexical semantics of 'semitic' and why it's a term causing uproar in Judaic scholarship, please see: holocaustremembrance.com/ant…

Public Service Announcement: A lot of anti-Jewish rhetoric in the USA of late. But I ask anyone reading this who uses semite for Jewish extends the co-option of the word by the Nazis. It is a linguistic, semantic, and philologic LIE, which refers NOT to Jews but to ~77 languages.

Browsers are a THING AGAIN!!! Talk to me about engines, you vendors hacking chromium core! Mix it up again please! User Agent Monoculture is nearly ubiquitous now.
We all failed the holy grail of interop
Shake the browser world down,
Time to DISRUPT!

The tech industry is broken and the system is stacked against start-ups trying to push it in a better direction. So we’re going to invest in those companies ourselves.
In 2023 we'll welcome #MozillaVentures, a venture capital fund built to better-the-web mzl.la/3Nu21Sj

approach for a 'new ideal' which I can best describe as a layered pinwheel floral design, round, 3 stacked front to back increasing in size with each arc of the flower leaves visible, and icons within those arcs. A hide/show feature, move, resize also. Food (flower) for thought!
