If the dems voted not to confirm him it wouldn't have mattered

Oh, well if it didn't matter if they chose to confirm him or not, why did they do it?

Complaining about the dems everytime a republican does something barbaric is just excusing their behavior.

And you're excusing the Democrats for confirming an anti-science wormbrain to the highest medical office in the land.

I get not wanting to blame the Democrats when the Republicans are shitty, but that only really works WHEN THE DEMOCRATS AREN'T PART OF THE REASON IT HAPPENED IN THE FIRST PLACE.

Generally I'd be with you in trying to shift the unwarranted blame, but it's not unwarranted in this situation at all.

It's honestly kinda awful. I've been trying to use it a bit to help speed up some of my projects at work, and it's a crapshoot how well it helps. Some days I can give it the function I'm writing with an explanation of purpose and error output and it helps me fix it in 5 minutes. Other days I spend an hour endlessly iterating through asinine replies that get me no where (like when I tried to use it to help figure out a bit very well documented API, had it correct me and use a different method/endpoint until it gave up and went back to my way that didn't even work! I ended up just hacking together a workaround that got it done in the most annoying way possible, but it accomplished the task so WTFE)

Pro tip: use a thesaurus on every word to make sure people know your opinions are informed

Well, which one of us died mismanaging their web placement?

Pretty sure we've got it in USA too, I think I've seen billboards for it recently.

If they stole data on digital insurance policies, they're going to see a rise on their customers getting hit with ransomware attacks that are conveniently asking for their policy limit.

Review bombing is now criticism of a game I like

Was on a road trip to South Dakota with my (now) wife's family, and her father had just planned on stopping wherever on the trip rather than planning stops (which is probably better considering there were 3 adults taking care of 5 kids from 8 to 16 and we were an....interesting set (all ADHD, most with (un)diagnosed autism). We stopped at some motel 8 style place kinda late and just wanted to get some sleep so we could get on the road and to our cabin destination. We ended up having to stay there, but it sketch as all hell.

Man, those rooms were awful. The room was musty AF, and I remember not taking my shoes off because the carpet felt spongy. The beds were rock hard and the sheets under the duvet were polka dot look white sheets. I didn't even undress and made sure to change my clothes before getting back in the van the next day.

Other than that, it was a lovely trip. It even led to a moment that my wife will never be able to live down with her family, and still comes up pretty regularly when we talk to her family.

I had a similar thought years ago, so if anything happens, I'll end up with a reverse Hitler.

I call those brodozers, and I hate those drivers. I've damned near gotten hit by them so many times cuz they can't see shit over their hood

Not just talking about it, bragging about how people shouldn't go to the IW store, but now Alex Jones Inc or some stupid garbage.

I really think he's trying to see how far he can go before he forced them to do something on air like he's been edging himself for over the last decade of secretly being the thing he's ranted about all these years.

Dan over at Knowledge Fight has been cataloging how Alex has been working to (lazily) shield his assets for at least a year or two now. He's barely trying to hide it at all, and is basically telegraphing this on air and almost feels like he's trying to give them more ammo against him, but he is also very stupid.

The bottled lemon juice is terrible compared to fresh, at least in the US.

Agreed, but I recently found something almost as good as fresh without the storage issues. My friend introduced me to total lemon (not an ad), and it's great! It's like crystalized lemons, and immediately comes to life in liquid. I've been adding it to my fish instead of cutting up lemons and hoping I use it all, and I love it!

On my TODO list I also have to implement some sort of notification to get an alert when the decryption key is fetched from internet.

Why is it fetchable by arbitrary IPs from the internet? I'd think you'd lock it down to an IP/only make it available locally.

What about adults without hands?

Where did the coin come from? Unless you mined it yourself, you've left a trail that may eventually lead to you. Even using crypto ATMs, you're still on surveillance and hoping the tapes/drives roll over before someone comes knocking (which is a very likely bet to win), and even then, you still have a real world location to tie the wallet to because of where the transaction originated.

Anything that interacts with the real world can anchor your identity to your wallet. Travelling out of state can help obfuscate that to an extent, but a high level adversary will be able to correlate travel with that transaction as well.

The clone comment likely refers to the underlying architecture, as WhatsApp is using the signal protocol for its 'secured' messaging. Of the two, signal is the far superior choice for anyone not forced to live in Zucco's World. It's the more private option, and is secure by default unlike a lot of apps (namely, telegram).

WhatsApp (thankfully) is secure by default now according to Google, but it took them a hot minute to get to that point. That being said, you're still giving metadata to Zucc no matter what, which is still really bad to give the guy working on military AI...

Signal is a much better choice and its basically a whatsapp clone.

Must be why signal runs on the WhatsApp protocol

Fucking phone systems! That's what these are, and we have to snap them any time they're rebooted because sometimes they just shut the bed randomly, but the client doesn't want to buy a new system....

But, it's their wallet and they're willing to pay the "fuck you pay me" legacy surcharge.

What are you using for voice integration? I really don't want to buy and assemble their solution if I don't have to
