I really think the left were the canary in the coal mine with this entire Israel issue. I personally know people who didn’t give a fuck about Gaza during the election, who are now really wondering why shit is the way it is, who are slowly realizing (in their own ways) how it’s all connected.

Yes, I think we are on the same page on this one lol

I sometimes wonder if the Microsoft haters are in a bubble or if people who remember just how fucked up Microsoft was are just starting to age out at this point. I would like to think that Anyone who follows security related news and current tech news are also aware just how shit Microsoft is (and always was), but again, I migjt be very biased lol

Me, and the rest of the member of the various unix enthusit groups I belong to, would never ever ever want anything to do with Microsoft unless we are forced to use it for some stupid reason.

For all we know, there might have been one person high up in the chain of command that is not aware just how fucking bad Microsoft is.

I have a feeling a lot of people will be asking NASA a lot of questions about it, now that there is a huge spotlight on it.

Yes, that’s exactly the point being made. Tim is basically the movie villain version of a greedy CEO

What’s going on with Harris nowadays? His letter to a Christian nation was great, I loved the talks he had years ago with Rogan about AI (he was no fan of G-AI or whatever it’s called now (AGI?)). I haven’t kept up with him in years. I always knew he was a bit over the top with his views on Islam back then, I’m curious where he stands now on stuff

Same donors, same team

It’s absolutely worth watching - still the best TV I ever watched. The problem is that the book Author is an absolutely amazing writer, and the show runners were not good writers, so when the show surpassed the books, it was obvious (this is essentially the last two seasons). The show runners also rushed the ending because they were told Disney had a Star wars trilogy waiting for them. GoT easily could have been another 3 seasons to have a proper ending

I have my reasons to suspect it’s a kangaroo court. The people who are truly in power are pulling the strongs. He is a Zionist and his son is a settler in Israel, so it seems to all align. I’d love to be proven wrong though.

Guys, this judge was hand picked to give the results the admin wants.

Rising fascism all over the place, what can possibly go wrong

Same donors, same team.

You are clearly a fucking little teen or something. I have tons of old systems that do the job fine and will run until the heat deah of the universe. Not everything is about the latest and greatest gaming system.

Litestep was the shit years and years ago!! Last I looked into replacing explorer with a custom shell, litestep was pretty abandoned. What shell are you using? Are there multiple options nowadays?

So what exactly is wrong with X11? I find X to be absolutely great, and it is great for me to use POSIX apps across multiple architectures and systems.
Like what is it about Wayland that absolutely shits on X11 and makes people want to ditch X?

This is it right here. I can’t believe the nonsense I’m reading in this thread. Just goes to show how absolutely uninformed most people are when it comes to security and privacy

Conservatives hate knowledge, learning is toxic to them. Also the people who start with burning books usually end up burning people eventually

Correct

My experience has been that computer science is a huge umbrella term to normies. Many people, including hiring managers seem to thing computer science is more of a trade education where people come out knowing everything about excel, windows, PowerPoint, file conversions, obscure knowledge of ancient software, expertise in setting up enterprise printers, etc

I was developing software for a position I was in, and everyone was shocked I was a developer… (It was a devops job where everyone basically edited yaml or json files all day long…)

People who disagree with you are people who never spent time with the ultra rich. I’ve had the pleasure to hang in those circles and it was absolutely eye opening the complete disdain that social class has toward the working class. It’s so fucking crazy that one has to see it for themselves to truly appreciate the hate they have for everyone not in their economic circles.

Preach on brother, but I also understand why the plebs don’t believe you

Republicans live in blue states also
