Except it wasn't just a notification that there's been a complaint. It was "no more unwanted messages, please."
Aside from that it could be somewhat reasonable if there really is sufficient evidence to suggest that a criminal complaint is warranted. That seems unlikely, but I suppose we should keep an open mind. In the absence of someone digging up some really damning stuff from social media it looks a whole lot more like a lawyerly — and presumably therefore less illegal — attempt at something like "swatting", albeit a less violent version. The police should know better than to let themselves be used like that, but a lifetime of experience leads me to suspect that maybe they do not.
Thing is, they didn't seem to have brought anything to inform her of. If they want to come out of it looking like anything but witless fascist goons trying to intimidate someone, they're going to need to be a lot more specific than "unwanted messages" to unspecified persons.
She seems to think it was someone she replied to on twitter. I reply to random people on here all the time, just like I'm doing now. If it's unwanted, by all means send the netiquette cops to my house I guess, we'll see if I'm able to suppress my derisive laughter long enough to get a video half as good as this one out of it.
That's generous of you. If I'd mistakenly bought one that wouldn't work without ever having a network connection, I'd be returning it and demanding my money back. Hasn't happened yet, though.
You'd be correct to point out that not all of them waste energy like Ethereum did until later in 2022 and Bitcoin still does, but wrong to pick Monero as an example of one that doesn't.
The discourse about Mozilla is ridiculous, here and most everywhere. You've got people taking every perceived opportunity to attack them for things they do, things they didn't do, and things it's imagined they might've done. And then another crowd of equally determined people doggedly defending them for every idiotic blunder they make, such as this one.
Meanwhile Mozilla itself has nothing substantial to say. This is not the first time a prominent extension has mysteriously gone missing from amo with Mozilla telling us nothing about its role in the incident. @mozilla@mozilla.social needs to be in the discussion giving us a real explanation of what happened, why they got it wrong, and what they're doing to improve things.
One person who believes that Jos Verstappen is somehow involved in the team operations is Jos Verstappen, as the headline indicates. He certainly has at least some small amount of influence with one person who does work for Red Bull. We only hear what he's willing to say in public, and it's more than enough to demonstrate that he enjoys getting involved.
It wasn't all solely his fault. Perhaps he gets more of the blame than he should due to being the one among the people involved most inclined to run his mouth in public. But it sure wasn't "nothing to do with him."
The agency said that Evil Corp's ability to translate their criminal proceeds into real spending money was as important to their success as their technical exploits.
May their example serve to remind us all that the surveillance state must forever continue to expand until we finally attain the ideal financial system where criminals are no longer able to transform money into money.
He warned everyone that if he kept on sabotaging the team and trying to sow dissent that it might be bad for the team, but they just wouldn't do everything his way.
Whether or not Mozilla chooses to issue some kind of meaningful statement about what happened beyond the boilerplate "oops, it was an error" is not up to Gorhill.
AI seems like a possibility. I find it slightly easier to believe that someone in management was stupid enough to replace human reviewers with bots than that someone in a position to decide what gets accepted had never heard of UBO and didn't realize that it's an important one.
Either way they really ought to explain themselves.
It's not "handy." It's badly-written arrant clickbaity tendentious anti-Firefox garbage. Mozilla does plenty of stupid things. I do not understand this desire some people have to invent more. It appears that many of them have simply decided based on Mozilla's now-discontinued efforts to improve social media that Mozilla is too "woke" and therefore the enemy, or something like that.
cups-browsed <= 2.0.1 binds on UDP INADDR_ANY:631 trusting any packet from any source
Well that would explain why I didn't have it installed (although I did have other parts of cups until jwz coincidentally reminded us two days ago that it can all be removed if you don't have a printer.) I clear out anything that opens ports I don't need to be open. A practice I would recommend to anyone.
It's the "always will" where I disagree. This society we've built isn't anything close to sustainable no matter how much lip service is given to the idea that it should be. What can't go on forever, won't.
