The fact that they'd self-select an audience that agrees with them and folks that don't wouldn't follow them.

Bittorrent is best for static data, building it into a p2p social media protocol would be pretty hacky and would scale poorly unless it was only used for sharing media content.

What you're looking for is a friend-2-friend network with onion routing, that way you only connect directly to people you trust and messages for others get passed along to the recipient through the f2f network.

Such things already exist, but I can't get anyone to try out Retroshare ( http://retroshare.cc/ ) with me because it isn't modern, polished, effortless, and mobile like corporate media.

It's not "less traceable", bitcoin is a public ledger, literally every transaction is documented on the blockchain for anyone and the IRS to see.

Site reliability engineer here, your application is both alive and dead until the monitoring server pings its health status API.

Ibuprofen for tension headaches, acetaminophen for the rest.

"Blue MAGA" are the Democrats who think their shit doesn't stink and love to insist that any vote that doesn't go to Harris is a vote for Trump.

Classical Liberals are right-wing. Yes, this includes the Democrats and non-Socialist Libertarians.

The Olympics.

Anti-piracy operations always pick up when big sporting events happen because the networks that pay for broadcast rights don't want to have to compete with unlicensed streams.

Firefox stores cookies in a DB file called cookies.sqlite, i just cleared cookies on a fresh new Firefox profile and the file is 524.3kB. A text dump of the file has four lines of text that describe the structure of the cookie database and that's it. No actual content.

Garlic aioli.

Trans scientist inventing a gender that can observe the exact position and velocity of a particle simultaneously.

I'm amazed at how long it takes to boot up, too. Especially after the login screen, it's like 5 minutes from entering my password to the company VPN app finally starting up in the background.

Meanwhile my 8 year old desktop (I use Arch, btw) takes all of 20 seconds, including both the login and the grub menu.

I am almost exclusively one of those Linux weirdos. The only non-Linux computer touching I do is for work. XD

Some of us are weird enough that it feels appropriate. 🤷🏼

Some nonbinary folks 💪

This.

If you only need to disrupt gait recognition for a short period of time, then something as low-tech as some pebbles in your shoe would suffice. But there aren't any solutions that can fool it long-term.

Can? Probably. Will? No. They would need access to Crowdstrike's update distribution system and if they had that they could do much more interesting things than crashing a bunch of systems.
