This is interesting. I’ve been setting up our non-profit’s new grant-funded Azure VM, then Wordpress site, then CiviCRM, then hardening it all, and I’m hoping to offer this as a (volunteer) turnkey service to a few other nonprofits in town. And it’s amazing to me how many hours this still takes, and how out of reach it is for the average nonprofit.

Oh thank god I was afraid some more kids might not get talked into suicide by a fucking server

The simple act of comparing signatures meant that it was very difficult to randomly target people. We don’t have anything like that today, like a key/token pair.

They have left us with only one solution to the billionaire problem. And they’re trying to make that difficult too, with round-the-clock security. But everyone is vulnerable for a moment here or there.

Last night I chatted with my politically moderate neighbor, who is now considering leaving the country, and cheered Luigi, and a bunch of other shit that would have been “far left” a while ago, but I think is now permeating into the middle too.

The oldness wasn’t so visible as the um, roundness. Data had reached maximum storage density, if you catch my drift.

Truth has been on our side this whole time and it hasn’t mattered an iota. So I don’t care about making sure everything is laid out “just so” anymore. The 2-second walkaway is the win.

They’re not preloading your emails, just making it look like it, by preloading a few fields (from, subject). Providers have to pay for every byte they send, so they make damn sure they’re not sending a bunch of extraneous data, at scale, for millions of users.

Specifically for “old emails” in my mind, these are emails you’d have to dig for. The act of digging up the old emails will be much more data intensive than leaving them sit, which draws no power. Your old emails aren’t kept in RAM.

This is a major feature of nearly all cars now. Dealerships can remotely track and disable cars when people fall behind on their payments. That’s because so many people fall behind on payments nowadays, they need easy mechanisms for dealing with it. America is cooked.

I hope they tell us when it starts because I won’t notice otherwise

Well my decision to cancel Spotify last month is already paying off.

Well Trump just gave ICE an absurdly large budget so they’ve gotta be running around like rednecks that just won the lotto. I expect ICE vehicles will all be red and yellow Lamborghinis soon.

What um, what court system do you think is going to make that happen? Cause the current one is owned by an extremely pro-AI administration. If anything gets appealed to SCOTUS they will rule for AI.

There was once a time when a small company built out of passion could elevate a normal guy into CEO, so as recently as 30-40 years ago you could still have some decency at the top. As the barriers to entry have shot upward, today to become a C-level you get an MBA and carefully scrape out your soul as part of your “leadership” education which has nothing to do with the widgets your company will produce, and everything to do with fellating the shareholders.

It’s sad because I grew up in an era when a guy could still get ahead by being sharp and having good ideas, but now it’s only by Playing The Game. So those of us with morals are stuck with low earning potential because of it.

The Dems finally figured out it’s incredibly stupid to keep fighting and pushing upward when it just results in a net loss for us. Took them a surprisingly long time to figure it out, and we lost a lot of rights, including trans rights, in the progress.

Yes, but the media is willing to lie for him and whatever form necessary to normalize all this

mRna is cancelled

If you’re going to get nitpicky we could focus on how much heat the concrete retains vs plant life which can absorb and use the energy. All the people with concrete or rock yards around here are super hot, my dog and I have to run by in the summer. Paving vast surfaces is a poor alternative to landscaping. The soil underneath will dry and the animals, insects, microflora, etc will all be forced out and that part of the earth will just be dead.

But really it just looks dumb and Jackie planted some of those trees.

Everything is “evidence” when your side has “faith” and “control of the government”
