Someone very smart (maybe @hacks4pancakes.com ?) once said on reading news about big breaches "Everyone who knows anything is under NDA. So if you see someone talking, by definition they don't know what they're talking about."

It stuck with me. And yeah, that basically applies to everything

Quick question does anyone know how to restore virtue to a decaying society

If the government gets to decide if you have them, they're not human rights.

A lot of people say AI isn't very good for the world and its outputs are routinely unreliable, but these haters fail to see how it's revolutionizing how we incinerate schoolchildren.

Just thinking about how we don’t have money to keep the public hospital open but there’s an unlimited budget for police overtime

Parents Tried to Shield Their Children From Vaccines. Instead They Got Measles.

A little confused by "instead" here.

The saying isn't "fuck around, instead find out"

My entire adult life

Hm. Never been to Buffalo.

average person cheering for war in iran

no war no borders no cops no prisons no to all of this shit

In case you’re just waking up, the U.S. has teamed up with Israel overnight to start an illegal war of regime change, apparently on a presidential whim with no involvement of Congress, and they are already committing horrific atrocities.

operation blowing up residential buildings because a dozen rich old guys got caught molesting teenagers in the 90s

In hindsight, expanding executive powers to normalize presidents unilaterally approving foreign strikes was a bad idea. But in midsight and foresight it was also a bad idea.

Colorado Lawmakers Push for Age Verification at the Operating System Level Rather than having people verify their age on every app they use, Colorado's SB26-051 would implement a way for devices to share an 'age-bracket' signal to third-party apps.

can we please start electing people who understand technology? this is so stupid for so many reasons, both social and technical. it boggles the mind.

Yeah I miss beer. Don't miss the headaches and the fucked up digestive system

I quit drinking for medical reasons in 2108-19. When the medical reasons went away I started again and it made me realize how awful I felt all the fucking time.

Dolla dolla brie y'all

So back to the pre-auth and insurance co-pay issues: I'm 100% certain people are dying because they can't bear to wait for insurance and don't have the option to pay out of pocket without guarantee of reimbursement.

That supremely pisses me off. It should piss you off too. 4/

Good morning!

it is not enough to disable the feature that produces an AI summary of my emails at the top of my emails in gmail, I need a button that delivers an electrical shock to the person who thought it was a good idea

I am somebody

"Since launch, more than a dog a day has been found and more than 27 dogs a day every day every year have been shot by the police using your Search Party by Ring cameras to hunt and kidnap your neighbors who they also shoot to the tune of about 4 a day every day every year, as well as the dogs."

Such commentary seeks to redefine pornography as "whatever I wish to censor because I do not like it."

This is horrifying for so many reasons. The one I'm thinking of right now is the billion dollars spent to torture and terrorize and imprison people could easily buy all of us healthcare, child care, parental leave, affordable housing ... all the things the Epstein Class swears we can't afford.

Prosecute the entire chain of command

Forums are nostalgic to people of exactly my age, but I think they just have a different combination of the weaknesses of chat clients and social media. I think what ppl miss is having a small, close-knit community, and that's increasingly hard to replicate as corpos own it all.

thinking about Ring's mesh surveillance and tapping the sign

Violent policing is wrong on every level.

Abolish ice.
Abolish CBP.
Abolish state patrol.
Abolish the MPD.

All of it. Let’s build something new. We’ve already got neighborhood safety groups. We already built it.

Guillotines now
