Yeah, Medtronic is a bunch of assholes for things like that. If you really wanna rage, look at how the company does everything they can to not allow communication between blood sugar live sensors and pump controllers. Biomedical enthusiasts (I loathe the term biohacker) have been working this idea with older, more easily hackable pumps.


That is slightly part of the problem but, no where near the totality of the issue. The broader issue is capitalism only works with the fear of homelessness and being cast out if you dont dance to their tune. Some of the population must be unemployed to keep the working class in fear. If you didnt have to work for housing, food, and healthcare, would you put up with the bullshit we do at a job? I certainly wouldn’t. They know that too.
As much as I was annoyed by the tone of the statement made by previous poster, we have to reach out and lift up. We cannot keep putting the boot down on people just because their life took a path or they are making choices we feel are incomprehensible and must require a defect of some sort.
We have to support each other cause the State ain’t coming over that hill to save the day.


Fair.


I wanna say first that is a tragedy you are homeless and I wish the best for you in finding permanent lodging but your statement raises some questions. How are you preparing these foods? If you are as homeless as you purport, are you using a campfire, or a communal kitchen, or are your meals prepared for you? How are you procuring your groceries?


I disagree with the sentiment that it is perfectly acceptable to be apolitical. Governments can and will legislate your right to exist as you do so it is in your interest to be political.


Peak design. We have strayed from the Holy T9.


You aren’t wrong to suspect the timing. They have been working on a variety of bills to work on the KYC aspect of the business. This major push, along with Android Developer Verification, are the ways the corpos want remove any anonymity.


Sorry, minor correction. Not all the systemd developers. One single dickhead wrote it and two chuds who work at microslop merged the PR made this happen. The git structure got hijacked. People are arguing over the validity and necessity of the PR while ignoring the broader goals this serves.
To be frank, I am so sick of this invasive nonsense. I have a son and you know how I’m going to manage access for him? Not fucking letting him have the damn computer before he knows how to use it safely. I grew up on Web 1 and web 2.0. They were much scarier places back in the day and easier to find.
Moreover, this also follows with the trend of sensationalizing threats to make the pearl clutchers feel this is a good choice. Its no different that how the news screams the US is unsafe with tons of violent crime to justify this kind of bullshit when violent crime has been declining on the whole.
This ginned up controversy serves one interest. Control access to knowledge so you never question the State again.
A group of pan people is a clatter.


Its the backward running after the kick that does it for me. Such a shit angle to capturing that. The CGI is what it is. I’ll take that for its age. What I can’t excuse is bad physical acting.


The Zenkethi have been in both alpha and beta canon with wildly different interpretations. I’d like to see more of them even if it isnt major and they just decide what they should be.


As predictable as it is, I still believe Anisha is working with Nus(topher). I’m not engaging in the pictures or anything because I don’t want to be spoiled.
Possible silly idea but could the reference to a gemstone be a possible nod to the Emerald Chain having some angle here? I realize they were only namedropped maybe once, but they are an active player in the region and could be part of the scaffolding for the villains in season 2.


Gotta love “apolitical” scientists. “I just want to do my work building things to kill people. I dont care who I build it for. You all will use it to kill each other somehow.” - Wernher von Braun, probably.


I don’t like that I am in this picture.


It’s one more tool in the bag that the State can wield against us. My more conspiratorial thinking as this as an accidental part of the frame work of how they create the slave knowledge worker class since anyone who actually works in tech will disable this. That way they can sweatshop devs into fixing bad AI code without paying them.


Love the writeups they cook up. Always useful stuff. The Beetsflask guide is pretty helpful too.


I find myself grappling with the idea that the rule of law is gone but the rest of the system is unaware or can function independently for awhile. I wonder how many more people need this revelatory moment to start doing what needs to be done.
Sounds like music to my ears 🎶
Luckily, it’s a lot easier to train electronics inspectors than decent coders who can follow the whole system or module design. That should help for a bit but, man, to be the QA person looking at that atrocity…
