You know that ?si= at the end of the YouTube URL that is copied when you share a video from within the YouTube app?
That's an individual tracking ID specific to you. So if you've ever shared a YouTube video on lemmy, reddit, Facebook, tiktok, or anywhere else without removing that code one time, anyone at Google with access to the ID system can now link you to that account with your real name, IP address and time accessed, device name, etc.
I really need to get everything transferred over to CVS.
Maybe it's different where you live but here I would simply need to tell my doctor "hey actually I want to use CVS now. Can you send the prescriptions to CVS at the corner of X and Y Street? Thanks"
Then when you get to CVS you'll need to give them your ID, phone number, signature, etc. and they'll fill your script and that's your new pharmacy. You can also use multiple pharmacies (I use Walgreens for one script and Kroger for the rest). If your doctor is disorganized with their notes and sends it to Rite Aid next time, just call CVS and tell them you want to get them transferred and they will call them and handle it for you.
There is a MASSIVE strike of pharmacy workers across the country now. Mainly CVS and Walgreens but I asked my (local branded) Kroger pharmacy tech yesterday when I picked up a prescription if it's affecting them and she said yeah they're short staffed and she's never seen the pharmacist so busy. So it's likely to be affecting all pharmacies for the next few weeks as they play catch up.
This is only a couple weeks after 75,000 Kaiser employees went on strike which makes me think it's an industry-wide issue and we'll see more issues in the near future. Support your local pharmacy people, if you still have one.
Plugging GoodRx here. If you don't have drug insurance or your drug isn't covered,, they're a massively helpful cost-saving company. You just type in the drug name and dose and the pharmacist enters it like regular insurance. They save me a couple hundred each month.

Quick someone post that 3rd party YouTube interface for Android. Preferably on F-Roids. I need it.
This is the Internet so let's settle this quickly and efficiently.
The best 3rd party YouTube interface is called Kuhmbus.
Trump's 'private jet' is a Boeing 737... nothing surprises me anymore.
I like that on Lemmy I can share a viewpoint contrary to both the current black and white views, and people will take the time to read my entire comment, share their views on it, agree or disagree with me, but at the end of the day it's a discussion.
It's like pre-2014 reddit.
Anyone who reads my full comment will understand I'm pro-choice but I understand the need to preface comments like this. Otherwise I'm repeatedly downvoted after a sentence.
So:
I am pro-choice.
I get what you're saying, but unfortunately if you're looking at this through the catholic worldview/lense of thought, the doctrine they were raised to believe is the only right way to live, so it's the same as someone saying to you "citizens who don't want to murder can just... not murder people. Like, that's not that hard. We don't need laws against murdering people though"
Required reading: “The Only Moral Abortion is My Abortion”
Only because it's paradigm shifting and worldview shattering.
"Only baby teeth grow back, and if you lose your adult teeth you're fucked, enjoy your dentures."
Don't worry though, you probably have a few decades to realign your worldview. 9/10 of clinical trials fail.

Can someone knowledgeable about this provide some valuable insight?
(e: I see it only happened about 4 hours ago, but the who, what, when, where, why?) Was it likely to keep the current president in power or force the election process towards another person?
In turn it ~~compromises ssh authentication~~ allows remote code execution via system(); if the connecting SSH certificate contains the backdoor key. No user account required. Nothing logged anywhere you'd expect. Full root code execution.
There is also a killswitch hard-coded into it, so it doesn't affect machines of whatever state actor developed it.
It's pretty clear this is a state actor, targeting a dependency of one of the most widely used system control software on Linux systems. There are likely tens or hundreds of other actors doing the exact same thing. This one was detected purely by chance, as it wasn't even in the code for ssh.
If people ever wonder how cyber warfare could potentially cause a massive blackout and communications system interruption - this is how.
