Latest app update is security related -- backblaze bucket has been locked down and all images being served are signed and only visible for an hour.

I am having some trouble getting my ios emulator to work for testing....

Wow. And this is the bill Trump wants passed over the Senate proposed one...

This doesn't look good at all.
Thread

1)GOP 2025 budget resolution bill is making these cuts

Dept of Agriculture cuts $230 billion

That will devastate farmers.Those cuts do not include all the illegal cuts to USAID programs

There are countless Fed assist AG programs to do with water, irrigation etc etc...AG costs will soar

Wow, moved money around illegally and just promoted to head of the SSA.

This administration rewards people who break the law for "the mission". Which apparently includes ASMR videos of immigrants in chains...
New—Social Security Administration (SSA) Commissioner stepped down bc she wouldn't comply w/ DOGE. Lower-level staffer Leland Dudek replaced her.

In a now-deleted LinkedIn post (pre-promotion) shared w/ me, he said he was placed on admin leave bc he "circumvented the chain of command" to help DOGE.

Wow, absolutely horrible. It's Trump so stuff like this is sadly expected.
Jose Barco, a decorated U.S. Army veteran once based out of Fort Carson who served 2 tours in Iraq, was taken into custody last month by ICE because his citizenship papers, which were supposed to be processed while he was in the Army, were lost.

Read his story:

Damn. I imagine many of the people being let go really were just doing their jobs for their country and their countrymen. And to be vilified by a heartless Billionaire so he can feel important has got to suck. We need more stories like this.
This comment on r/fednews really stood out to me. Trump and Musk want people to think they're firing do-nothing "bureaucrats," but they're really getting rid of people dedicated to serving this country and keeping it operational. I hope these stories get told.

There is no content on that website—nothing. White House reporters just get herded from room to room and lied to in each one.
Reporter: Are you, in effect, policing yourself? What are the checks and balances in place to ensure there is accountability and transparency?

Elon Musk: We post our actions to the DOGE website and X. All of our actions are maximally transparent. No one has been more transparent than DOGE.

The price I've been paying for eggs finally went up. Its been 3.99 for over a year for the Dark Yolk eggs. Egg inflation under Trump is real.

I'm glad that the IRS honored the EV tax credit pre-IRA. They even paid me interest!

Wow. Hopefully we can push back and limit the damage and work towards fixing this mess.
Warren, from earlier —

“This is the system that makes sure that your grandpa gets his social security check on time. This is the system that makes sure that your mom's doctor gets paid for her Medicare exam. Elon Musk wants the power to turn that on, to turn that off, as Elon Musk decides.”

Hello all cable news: do not broadcast the President of the United States talking about air traffic control. He doesn't know what he's talking about.

If I were an investor in OpenAI I'd be scared. They stole a bunch of stuff to train their models and hid it behind a paywall. China just released it for free.

Rivian's feature for turning off the blinker on the highway is nice. They should roll it out to all roads!
