Jesus Christ. Someday that woman will be able to speak freely. The things I imagine she’ll say…

The joke is that there are only two of you in the world still using an S10.

I am just so underwhelmed by most games these days that I’ve stopped buying them. I didn’t play BG3 until someone bought it for me as a gift, and then I really enjoyed the shit out of it. It probably made it even more fun that I didn’t plan to play it and had very low expectations. So I guess that’s part of the fun for me now - waiting for a sale or free game and hoping that it’s better than I imagine it to be.

Put them on M365 or Google Workspace. Do not buy a server.

I’m sorry but humans refusing to save the life of another human because of an obtuse law is unconscionable. They should have done what needed to be done and let the lawyers sort it out later.

People who didn’t grow up in the pacific NW:

In principle, I’m very mad! Those are my games!

In reality, I don’t replay very many games, so I don’t care too much.

Homelessness in Japan is illegal, so people turn Internet cafe pods into “homes”.

It’s extremely clear to me that hexbear is a Russian propaganda tool. The twisted logic they employ and the over willingness of the users to spend lots of time pushing a narrative has made it all too obvious. I sincerely hope no one else falls into that trap through the fediverse. It needs to be defederated.

I’ve witnessed friends who got into the alternative news/Q Anon shit similarly start to fully believe the propaganda. They parrot all the Russian talking points about Ukraine and believe Trump is the only one who can save the country from oblivion. They think they’re hearing insider information, that it’s the actual truth, and the media does nothing but lie. It’s attractive because they think they’re getting secretive truth that most other people aren’t hearing. They’re getting bullshit.

The Russian war on hearts and minds is going swimmingly well for them. They’ve gotten fascists elected all over the world. It is time for their targets to wake up from their drug induced haze and recognize the true reality of the situation.

The main thing that gives X relevance is sports media and corporate communications. If they all move elsewhere, X would turn into an echo chamber like Truth Social.

What new level of hell is this?

What policies of Barack Obama do you think contributed to this?

Do you believe the president actually has a role in determining whether black people can achieve home ownership?

The article described the hackers having access to what’s called Lawful Intercept capabilities. In the telecom equipment I’ve worked with, this takes the form of voice call tapping, full packet capture of data, or just a capture of connections made.

If they had unfettered access to this functionality, they could have spied on anyone at length. Government officials, C suite people at companies…anyone.

Importantly, you probably don’t know what all is encrypted in every app you use on your phone, so it’s best practice to encrypt the transport.

California is awesome.

I wish that these two were the presidential candidates. They’re both coherent and seem to actually care about the things affecting us. The presidential candidates are playing partisan politics and parroting the same talking points on repeat.

No shit, had seen only one weird trailer for this movie before it came out.

Right? After he got shot at, he went on some spiel about how the rhetoric needs to be reigned in because the democrats saying he’s a threat to democracy is inciting violence. As usual, whatever suits Trump in the moment is the way forward!

All of this began with Steve Bannon and his WoW guild. I can’t believe how far they’ve taken it.
