Nah, if that’s the goal they’ll just use Neutrino Bombs (look them up, they’re crazy what they’re designed to do)

Ml is a ticking time bomb. Mali is starting to take back its domain and lemmy.ml could go offline at any time. OP specifically noted that too.

as recently as 2005

You do realize that’s almost 20 years ago. That’s like saying “well you realize in 1985…” Back in 2005.

(The 2000s have been a blur for me time wise too)

I often times wonder if an extraterrestrial threat would be a unifying factor or if people would still be selfish unless it affected them. The pandemic was the closest we’ve seen to a world level threat recently and it just increased selfishness IMO (at least in the US)

So I’m gonna add something here… It annoys me that managers can’t form or be part of a union. Far too often low and mid level managers and supervisors get shit on just as much and have to parrot the company line coming from the higher ups that are trying to push it. I wish they could be better empowered too.

Showerthoughts in a nutshell. Even when I went through and verified every rule was correct it was still removed. Modmail just responded “well you broke one of the rules” and would never explain which one or how.

Thank you… I hate all the people who are “we’ll permanently destroy the earth and it’ll never recover!” crowd. Maybe for us it’ll be too inhospitable and we won’t survive, but nature is surprisingly resilient. From bacteria that can eat oil and plastic, to entire generations of flora and fauna living in irradiated landscapes, it will adapt and be here long after we’re gone.

I know too many devs to have my body require a firmware update.

Dragon Ball FighterZ was just on sale on steam for 85% off including DLC. Nice to see that happen.

You went Tiananmen Square on it.

Is this really any different from Spectre and other types of attacks? Except those targeted predictive execution.

But, but, it’s contributing to the entropy of the universe!

Oh I’m not absolving them of their culpability either, however there is a two pronged approach that is happening right now. The first are those mouth pieces as you listed, but then there is the amplification of the message that is occuring and guiding conversations that is the work on troll farms. This more natural “grass roots” conversation is what I’m likening to their concerns about AI. The difference is you’re just taking the human out of the equation.

Unlike the GOP is already doing via Russia troll farms?

How it’s implemented can vary, but you’re gonna take one of three approaches

• Microsegmentstion - On a home network this is the hardest but ensures there’s no overlap
• Separate VLAN - this is usually good if your router can support it and have multiple gateways for each VLAN. Your router can then restrict traffic. Unifi gear does this well and I use this set up to segment my guest and IoT traffic
• Separate subnets - if your router doesn’t support multiple VLANs this can work, but you still need a router that supports it

The latter two can actually work with an unmanaged switch as long as you tag your vlans correctly. The key is having a router than can handle it.

It’s probably the most secure,. commonly available, messaging platform right now. They keep a bare minimum of metadata on their servers. Basically enough to link you on the platform. After that, everything is e2e encrypted and they can’t tell authorities anything.

Other platforms are a sliding scale from to/from/time data, all the way up to full messages.

Easy to confuse stupidity with malice. They’re chasing one thing and one thing only: the almighty dollar. Look at it through that lens and their actions make sense. For the rest of us though, that’s just stupid.

Maybe mentally I’ve already been hit with inflation, but $2 and “significant increase” do not tie out to me.

Pregnant and he was 59?

I did that as a kid in school passing notes!
