In other words "old baby got tired after standing out of his crib for two hours, blames mom and dad."

Trump: incoherent rambling about immigrants stealing then eating pets and Democrat governors aborting newborns

Kamala: "He lost the election, and he's clearly having a hard time processing that."

My money is on cousin Greg to take over.

The only way to stop a bad child with a gun is a good child with a gun.

Yeah, I think so.

At first, Xockets sounded like a legit tech company to me. But a closer look at their website reveals that it's actually run by a bunch of patent attorneys.

I saw it at the MoMA in NYC. The thing is tiny...

+1

From an order of magnitude perspective, the max is terabytes. No "normal" users are dealing with petabytes. And if you are dealing with petabytes, you're not using some random poster's program from reddit.

For a concrete cap, I'd say 256 tebibytes...

I think they're just stopping operations of the company in Brazil.

But I don't think they're going out of the way to prevent Brazilian IPs from connecting.

Where I work, everything is on IPv6. Both the infrastructure for the software services that we run, and our own internal corporate network.

My ISP also provides publicly routable IPv6 prefixes over DHCP. Any layman in my city with this ISP will be on IPv6 by default.

I also use IPv6 for my LAN.

Like, it's just kind of the default in my neck of the woods...

[S]hareholders said they learned that CrowdStrike’s assurances about its technology were materially false and misleading when a flawed software update disrupted airlines, banks, hospitals and emergency lines around the world.

I don't see how they can make this argument.

Falcon is a kernel module. When kernel modules fuck up, you get kernel panics.

Sure, the layperson may not know enough about computers to recognize this, but it's a basic enough fact about operating systems that an investor in a company like this should take the time to learn. It's not like they hid that fact.

If you invested in a company without knowing how their product works, that's on you.

He didn't. The attack occurred in the pre-security area.

The one graph:

The rally was in Butler, a deep red town in the next county north of Pittsburgh.

The shooter was from Bethel Park, closer to and on the other side of Pittsburgh. There's a subway line from Bethel Park to downtown Pittsburgh.

Pittsburgh itself is very blue. I'd call Bethel Park purple. It's definitely more suburban than rural.

Dude, no. I don't want to live in a country where politicians are being shot.

Also, I'm pretty sure the blond woman on his left / our right is the one who died. She did not deserve that.

Not the time for jokes.

Phone cameras tend to ramp up the saturation.

It gives the photo a more vibrant look, which many people prefer, at the expense of color accuracy.

But generally with artistic photography, you're going more for a style than for accuracy, so I wouldn't say it's always a bad thing (though sometimes it is).

Tell me you've never worked on a farm without telling me that you've never worked on a farm.

The thumbnail photo is extreme, yes. But white farm workers still get sunburns.

In this example I would have committed both crimes.

It's copyright infringement for me to republish and profit from your work without your consent (while that work is not in the public domain).

It's plagiarism for me to pass that work off as my own.

So it was a bad example.

Let's say you write a novel. It's really really good. But no one reads it because no one ever hears about it.

Later, I stumble upon your novel and recognize how great it is. Then I republish it verbatim, except with my name as the author. I am much better at business and marketing than you, so it goes viral. I receive millions in sales, am tapped to produce a movie version, and win a Pulitzer for it.

Is that fair? Or should you have some rights in all of this since it was your copy?

Or surveillance.

It's all "privacy, privacy, privacy" when it comes to private companies. But the EU themselves wants all of that data to create a surveillance state.

Not that the US government doesn't pull the same shit, but it does feel less hypocritical when they do it, because they're not even pretending to be concerned with privacy.
