New personal website inspired by Apple iOS
It’s simple, interactive (for the most part) & can be navigated by clicking the screen
It was a ton of fun to build during the free lovable day
Give it a try and leave me some notes 👋

@MayorBowser Why the large increase in prices recently? I used to always use them but it felt like uber where it must’ve been subsidized before increasing prices heavily
@Pouriaaa90@Teknium@RoundtableSpace I’m trying to see how I can use it to connect to an ERP. Does it use APIs or do you have another database? Assuming maybe just looks for pdf email confirmation payments? Surprised it doesn’t time out on you
Today Instagram had this massive exploit where hackers were just stealing rare handles left and right. Hundreds of accounts gone.
People losing handles they’ve owned since 2010, some worth hundreds of thousands.
I own a few rare ones so I was actually stressed watching this happen in real time, which I haven’t been in years.
Obama White House account got hit.
These aren’t some random new accounts, these are verified, locked down accounts and they still got compromised.
The thing is the exploit is so simple it’s almost funny. Attacker goes to Forgot Password, says their account is hacked, turns on a VPN to match the target’s location (which now you can find on the about section of the page).
Instagram’s AI support flow asks them to verify with a selfie.
They grab a photo from the target’s profile, run it through an AI video generator to make an animation of the person’s face moving around, upload that to Meta’s AI as proof.
And Meta’s AI just accepts it because it can’t tell the difference between a real selfie and an AI-generated video of someone’s face
.
Once verified they change the email to theirs. Password reset link goes to their email. They own it now. 2FA gets bypassed somehow in the process but honestly I don’t know exactly how, just that it did.
Point is even locked down accounts went down.
Then you try to recover your account and you’re talking to a chatbot that has zero ability to help.
You can’t escalate to a human. You’re just stuck. Your asset is gone and there’s no one to call.
The whole thing just highlighted how stupid it is to automate account security without any human in the loop.
One AI fooling another AI while there’s literally no person anywhere to catch it.
Meta took hours to even acknowledge it while accounts were getting stolen every minute.
Now thankfully it’s patched but I don’t think it will be the last one. Stay safe!
Went through a phase of this in college due to our house not having a dishwasher. Roommates didn’t wash the dishes so during our monthly utility review we made the executive decision to pivot to disposables for the rest of the year…
Also Sam’s Club is the best for disposables
@Jason No pro in economics but DC mandated higher wages for restaurants and now I get a 3% surcharge on every restaurant bill and that is on top of usual auto 20% tip and an occasional 3% “employee mental health” fee I pay for optional therapy.
@guillaumemarq@NousResearch If I am a company I’d rather hire somebody to ensure all settings are optimized. Then Nous makes money from setting the enterprise customers on their online nous plan
Same thing with Xfinity Mobile. After signup it automatically throttled Netflix to 360p instead of 1080p while on cellular. The second you turn on my VPN it is crystal clear… You had to manually go into your online cellular account and find a hidden page to turn off throttling!
the reason they made this is funny if yall dont know
ISPs were throttling speeds when streaming from Netflix and when the user would run a speedtest via one of the usual sites they would detect that and stop it from throttling
netflix's test caught this and proved it
@elainejgodfrey Whenever I walk home past sunset through it most times all I see are homeless and various drug users? Then a few others passing by like I am but nobody staying long…
Have also been heckled at night telling me to leave the area
