“if” gcc had a Ken Thompson hack how do you secure checks notes anything

on one hand stuff 'em, on the other this line of criticism is basically:

we need to improve how we fund journalism

yet you participate in funded journalism, curious!

oh no I have been owned, congrats you have restored the british empire to it’s former place as world super power

Nice list of things that no-one who can vote in a US presidential election cares about.

This article reframes people being able to afford to stay in their homes as some kind of crisis.

Not present at any point in this article; any evidence that any American is stuck in a home they would rather leave. They couldn’t even be bothered to quote a single homeowner who wanted to move let alone anything indicating that this is a common sentiment.

The only evidence cited are previous rates of housing mobility which are then taken simply as a natural norm with any deviation an unwanted aberration.

The idea that people might generally want to live in the homes they bought long term is not considered. The idea that those who move or downsize are often doing so reluctantly under pressure from their mortgage is not considered.

They’ve probably been looking for a pretense ever since he entertained the idea of not letting Germany do an IMF on Greece.

I can excuse attempting to compromise millions of computer systems worldwide for nefarious purposes but I draw the line at violating the contributor guidelines of an opensource project.

The top cat uses ports to sort messages based on application.

Think pigeon holes, applications usually use protocols which are assigned a number by convention. The application gets it’s message out of it’s assigned ports instead of having to sort through all the messages.

Threads exists for the sole purpose of capturing some of the people showing interest in the fediverse as twitter dies and keeping them in the facebook ecosystem. Once it believes it has exhausted this window of opportunity it will defederate just as it de-federated it’s xmmp based messenger service once it thought it had the upperhand.

Every server that defederates from meta preemptively is working to build a resilient community that will survive this inevitable scenario. Every server that federates with meta will become dependent on it then collapse as their users leave to join threads once that becomes their only option to continue interacting with the threads users that their social experience was built on.

Your post only concerns threats to an individual user re scraping or malicious interactions. The threat meta poses to the fediverse is systemic. In the long run the meta-blocking servers are the fediverse. The meta-federating servers might see some short term attention but in the long run will have the same fate as those that hitched their wagons to the metaverse.

Great crime behind every great fortune, only question is whether they did the crime themselves or their parents did.

best guess is the vpn endpoint is blacklisted by google.com with the requests being ignored instead of serving you with a 403 as some sites might. The other geographic google tlds I assume are operating separate blacklists.

here I am feeling guilty sometimes making a comment halfway through a 200 comment thread before scrolling on to find someone else already made the same joke while this mf making smug comments when they’ve not even read half the headline.

They have been writing these articles since the self-checkouts came out. The only thing new here is the commentariat has finally realized millennials are old now and started writing Gen Z.

Leyla coming!

Voter registration is public information and sufficient for cold callers.

If you live independently you will inevitably have to make privacy sacrifices for the sake of expediency. Having a bank account is probably going to be one of them. There are many essential services that you use but probably do not think of as an eighteen year old that may share information when you provide for yourself such as your phone carrier, ISP, utilities such as power, water, gas etc, insurance, health services, education or certification providers, employment or recruitment agencies, the list just goes on and you will have to thoroughly evaluate every company you interact with and in many cases there will simply be no realistic privacy respecting option.

Keep fighting to protect your privacy but don’t put an impossible burden on yourself to be perfect. You will make mistakes, you will make compromises, you will probably get spam. Welcome to late stage capitalism.

They’ll do it while simultaneously saying everyone needs to go back to the office because remote work doesn’t let us abuse employees as much is too difficult for the abled.
