I cannot POSSIBLY be any clearer (as someone who worked in IT managing some of this country's biggest databases) UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD ANYONE PROVIDE PICTURES OF THEIR PASSPORTS OR DRIVING LICENCES ESPECIALLY NOT to databases outside the GDPR THREAD:
X will begin to have users verify their identity by having them submit a selfie alongside a government issued ID. The process requires users to consent to X storing their information for 30 days and sharing it with AU10TIX, an identity verification company based in Israel.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
ID verification is going to be an optional layer of verification for X Blue users. This is not going to affect non-Blue users in any way. socialmediatoday.com/news/x-may-soo…

❗ The Source is NOT going out of business or moving❗ 🤗 Hey everyone! It's come to our attention that the wordage on our Summer Sale posters around the store has caused some confusion and led people to think we are going out of business or moving locations. 🧵 1/3

Well worth a read, I'm sure @pendraken are not alone here (though some issues are unique). Let's remember that if we can, support our gaming companies whilst they are still here, don't lament them when they are not.
We've put up some info on our Forum regarding the current climate and our future plans, so please head over and have a read if you've got a few minutes: pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.p…

I’ve stumbled across a video I’d forgotten I’d shot (similar to the one I’ve shared before, but slightly different). It’s of a WW1 Italian 149mm Ansaldo howitzer, sited at 3300m on a ridge above the Adamello glacier. It’s been up there for 107 years.

A firepower Friday thread. 18th century buckshot: who used it? TL;DR-first reaction may be to associate this type of round with the American army, but most European militaries of the time used it, and the Russians stood out as the other military who employed it as standard. 1/17

Remembering Hans Gruber, activist, bond trader and beloved brother to Simon (1948-1995). Hans was killed in Los Angeles on Christmas Eve 1988, a victim of police brutality. His death was never properly investigated. Never forgotten ✝️

And it begins... Texas has filed a bill that would make "consenting to gender affirming care" child abuse with prison sentences for parents. HB672 will mean a mass rounding up of trans kids if passed. It is the most horrifying piece of anti-trans legislation I've ever seen.

GW sent me the 3 of the 4 tools. (No drill) Here’s my thoughts. Cutters aren’t flush and misaligned they cut but not flush. Clippers have had tips ground away for safety but now can’t clip hard to reach things like the base of marine backpacks. 1/3
