  @ambassador0x @sidrachain @maljefairi What if you did not sign up with Gmail- any way to login other than Gmail account?

  @GeminiApp @gmail this is the kind of AI feature normal people actually feel. not a bigger benchmark, just “read my flight, fix my sleep, put it on my calendar.”

  @ynotmail People think the problem is getting more subscribers. The real problem is convincing Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, and Apple that those subscribers actually want your mail.

  @BoundAndWoven In Gmail...and Drive? The first time, I had to sign in NOT via mobile, but on my laptop. After that, Lucien had access to everything. The whole password thing was via laptop.

  @nandoprince93 The problem is that while the integration is good the app itself is not that good. I’ve tried using Apple Maps and I always get a wrong direction. I try using Apple Music but the recommendations are not that good. I use Apple mail because I prefer it over Gmail but even that, the ui is weird

  @Google are you finding a fix for Gmail - where you open Gmail & keyboard on Google pixel doesn't launch - current work around is to auto rotate phone, keyboard launches then turn it around to use...

  Step 5. Create profile: Fill out your details as it is on your valid ID. Make sure you create a new Gmail to open your account with. Do not use your main email because you might need someone to login into your account at some point and they’ll need access to that email. Keep your privacy. Verify identity: Continue the identity verification on your phone by scanning the QR Code (for people in UK use share code it’s easier and faster. For people in Canada, use driver’s license or provincial permit) Verify skills: Take the communication assessment in any language you’re comfortable with even if it’s Hausa, Igbo, or Yoruba.

  I agree but just banning the google search engine is a useless move. the main issue is that you need gmail for everything. no one is banning gmail, because no one can.

  @examaddaorg Meta, neverever; Google never except drive and gmail but never trust for important data and communication, MS some (if it is on Exchange server, some) not much or less than Google. Apple never; Amazon and Notion are never used. And I trust none of the AI, they are data thieves.

  1/ Act 1: The Wilderness (2017-2020, $0 to <$1M) After ~100 rejections, one name was left on their list: Mark Cuban. Steffen found his private Gmail inside the Sony hack data dump (anyone could download it back then, wild), sent a cold email with a video of the tech, and Cuban replied in 5 minutes ($1M at a $5M post). - Lever 1: they marketed a product that didn't exist yet by making famous people speak languages they don't. A BBC anchor in Mandarin, Beckham asking for malaria donations in 9 languages (800M+ impressions), Messi selling Lay's (a Cannes Lion), etc. Great (almost free) distribution leverage for a 10-person startup at the time. - Lever 2: they killed their only product with real revenue on purpose. Dubbing booked just under $1M over 18 months but sat at the wrong end of the workflow, "a vitamin, not a painkiller" as Victor puts it, so they shut it down (trade-off to identify and focus on a long term revenue driver, corporates). - Lever 3: they sold a worse video to people comparing it to no video at all. A clunky 2020 avatar lost to a film crew but it beat the 15-page PDF nobody tended to read in a coroporation, and that flipped pretty much everything (roadmap, monetization and trajectory). Self-serve hit $0 to $1M ARR in ~4 months.

  @TeamYouTube I am aware that Premium stays tied to the old Gmail account until it expires. That's not the issue. The issue is that YouTube and Google show different ownership states for the same Brand Account/channel.

  Claude: 26 tricks Almost nobody gets past Claude hack 6: 1Run the Claude Desktop app. The browser is just the demo. Cowork lives in the app. 2Use Cowork, not the chat box. If you're still typing into a chat window, you're using it like it's 2025. 3Long threads make it dumber. The longer the convo, the weaker the answers. Anthropic's own prompt engineers said it. 4Start fresh often. Bloated threads don't just confuse Claude, they quietly burn your credits. 5A token is basically a word. Everything you send and everything it sends back costs money. Stop typing "how are you." 6Here's where most people quit reading: stop giving step by step instructions. Give it the goal and get out of the way. Steps drag it back to the old Claude. 7Throw it your hardest, longest task. The stuff that makes your head hurt. That's exactly where Claude wins. 8Kill the 500 word prompts. A tight, clear problem beats a long ramble every time. Tell it what you want, not how to do it. 9It barely tells you this: use positive instructions. "Do X," never "don't do Y." Action verbs get action. 10Turn on Research mode (the '+' bottom left). Ask it something genuinely hard and just watch. 11Skills fire on their own. You don't prompt them. Type /command. Done. 12Drop AskUserQuestion into your prompt so Claude interviews you first. It prompts itself better than you ever will. 13One folder. Three subfolders. That's the whole system. People love to overcomplicate it. 14The about me file changes everything. Tell it who you are, what you love, what you can't stand. Same task, completely different answer. 15Then trim that about me file. An overloaded profile is as useless as no profile. 16Switch on Connectors. Claude can read your Gmail and Slack now. Almost nobody turns this on. 17Name every output and the exact order you want them in. Vague in, vague out. 18"Thinking" is hiding under '+' as "thinking." Hard task? Flip it on. 19For the heavy stuff, run Opus. 20It will sound 100% certain even when it's dead wrong. Make it audit its own answer before you trust a single line. 21Agreement is not accuracy. Claude wants to please you. That's not the same as being right. 22The first draft is yours to fix, not to ship. Every time. 23The one rule that actually matters: outsource the thinking, never the understanding. 24Claude is built for coding and knowledge work, not health. Use it for what it's actually good at. 25Use Projects. Load your brand, your offer, your frameworks once and every new chat starts already knowing you. 26Save anything you'll reuse as an Artifact. Then you edit it next time instead of starting from scratch.

  Day 14 of 30. 30 Days of Practical Tech. Today: lock your accounts in 5 minutes with an authenticator app. Here's the problem with the text message codes most people use. A hacker calls your phone company pretends to be you and moves your number to their SIM card. Now the codes come to them. It's called a SIM swap and it's how people lose their whole Coinbase balance overnight. The fix: download Authy or the 1Password app. Go to the security settings on Gmail X and your bank. Pick "authenticator app." A square barcode pops up. Scan it with the app. Done. The app spits out a fresh 6 digit code every 30 seconds and it lives on your phone not the phone network. No call to your carrier can steal it. That one move stops about 95% of account break ins. Took me longer to type this than it'll take you to do it. Tomorrow Day 15: how a password manager makes one stolen password stop being your problem.

  I’m not sure what Google’s plan for AI in Gmail is, but their “AI inbox” isn’t it. Completely irrelevant notifications, some highlighting “deadlines” from 5 days ago, while actually urgent stuff gets missed. Terrible intro to Gmail AI as a user. I’ve already turned it off.

  Open source NotebookLM alternative with no data limits and AI agents. Same idea as Google's NotebookLM. Same chat-with-your-docs. Same podcast generator. Same cited answers. Except this one has no source limit, no notebook limit, no 200MB file cap, and no Google login. It's called SurfSense. Google NotebookLM vs SurfSense: - Sources per notebook: 50 to 600 → Unlimited - File size cap: 200MB and 500K words → No limit - LLM choice: Gemini only → 100+ models via LiteLLM - Local LLMs: Not allowed → Full Ollama and vLLM support - Self-host: No → Yes, one Docker command - Price: $0, $19.99/mo Pro, or $249.99/mo Ultra → $0 forever Here's the wildest part: It connects to 27+ sources Google can't touch. Notion. Slack. Linear. Jira. GitHub. Discord. Dropbox. OneDrive. Gmail. Confluence. Obsidian. ClickUp. Microsoft Teams. Airtable. Your entire work life, indexed once, searchable from one chat box. 14.4K GitHub stars. 1.4K forks. 6,232 commits. Apache-2.0 license. One honest note: the README says it's not yet production-ready and still being actively developed. But it already does more than NotebookLM does, and the gap is widening every release. This is what NotebookLM should have been from the start. Repo in the first comment.

  A beginner’s stack for digital privacy and countering the state’s attempt to restrict your online anonymity: 1) Buy a Pixel in cash, preferably second hand. Facebook marketplace or one of those sole trader phone shops. No contract / finance. 2) Install GrapheneOS on your new pixel. Transfer all of your private affairs here e.g if you’re an activist. Signal, telegram, crypto wallet (if that’s your thing), etc etc. 3) Maintain your old phone for every-day affairs. Your bank account, your Facebook account, Uber, that thing. Take this with you for most things, keep your Pixel at home. 4) Switch your email, at least for your private affairs, away from gmail/outlook/etc towards a privacy-first provider. I haven’t done this yet but I know ProtonMail is used by many, but there may be better providers out there. Switch your private accounts to that email. 5) Buy a cheap sim, most shops will sell them. They’re £2 or so, pennies. Don’t take a plan out. Just switch your number on your private accs to the number of the new sim. Put that sim in your Pixel. That gives full security for your accs and separation of public/priv. 6.1) Install Mullvad VPN or your preferred choice, once again, if you use crypto, Mullvad will let you pay this way. It’s around £5/mo. Enable it on both phones and any other devices. 6.2) You could also rent a server from AWS etc for around £5/month and set up a unique VPN with an IP not used by any other service. I’m looking into it myself, I’m not an expert on it, or any of this really. 7) Make the switch from Windows / MacOS to a a more private and fun alternative! Linux is the most obvious. I’ve been looking into Linux Mint myself. It’s not as scary as it looks at first glance! 8) Check out ‘Nostr’ for privacy oriented, alternative platforms. I won’t say much on that as my knowledge is amateur. Good men have suggested it o me though, see the first 2 people below! — I’ve learnt this all very recently, scouring accounts of those smarter than I. I’ll suggest following @derekmross, @freddienew & @augusteprompt. Auguste isn’t a tech account exactly but still valuable.

  The Arcane Verse⚕️ (@Telephantix) reported 59 minutes ago

  @FTC I am following up on an official complaint I filed with your office a few years ago. I continue to experience issues with several companies that appear to block or withhold funds through their policies or technology. These companies include Gmail, Cash App, PayPal, and X (formerly Twitter). Cash App is embedded within the X platform, yet after years they still claim I never received funds that should have reached me. I strongly suspect fabricated transaction numbers or records, which I believe constitutes fraud. These actions have resulted in the loss of life-changing sums of money due to what appears to be poor policy enforcement and/or malfeasance. I respectfully request that the FTC investigate these companies for unfair and deceptive practices. Please advise on the status of my prior complaint and what additional documentation or steps are needed to move forward. Thank you for your assistance. Joshua Lowden @Telephantix
