As climate shocks worsen, U.S. disaster agency tries a new approach to aid.
Another win for the Biden administration. They just made a lot of great changes to how people can get aid after disasters. It includes immediate payments, better protections for renters, and removing some weird hoops people used to have to jump through. It also has new stuff to help self-employed people replace lost equipment.
A great step forward in fixing some of our janky disaster aid system.

On October 4, at about 2:20pm Eastern Standard Time (EST), FEMA is doing an emergency alert test. This means that all phones, regardless of if they have been placed in do not disturb will go off with that beeping noise. If you have a secret backup phone that you need the people you're with to not know you have, set a reminder to turn it all the way off.
For apple phones, this means holding the power button for five seconds and swiping the "power off" switch that shows up on the screen. Same with androids and early google pixels, except you'll be tapping a button. For google pixels 6 and later, you'll hold the power button and the volume up button at the same time. To turn on for all phones, you'll hit the power button and wait a sec.
Remember that the alert will still come through when you turn your phone back on, so make sure that you are in a place where that noise is safe.
Note that, for whatever reason, if they can't put out the alert, the backup test date is October 11th.
The link below is to the official press release with the information.

Would have made the sound louder, didn't even play at the right time, might have been more exiting in a public setting but tbh overhyped 5/10
