I initially had some of these thoughts, reflection changed my mind a bit. I'm not trying to change yours, but I think some people will benefit from this.
I am not much into art and most of it is lost on me, but the more I considered the feeling I had thinking about the restriction, the more I appreciated the fact that she can cause affects across without boundaries just by the stunt.
This would probably be less cool if it wasn't intended to be about a civil rights awareness thing. There's a limit for me on how far you can go before the justification isn't enough for the negative affects of the action, but I don't think anyone will really be hurt by this exhibit.
I hope the court room shenanigans don't actually distract from the validity. People tend to get distracted easily from thinking about something challenging.
Agreed. I'm not a chess player, but I view it as an intellectual sport or challenge. There's no reason not to eliminate all gender specific separation IMO.
I think it's fun to see people in competition and achievements where we don't have to care about the person's physical attributes.
When I first read it, the thought that came to mind was how stupid it is in this age to do anything that is restricted by gender when the rest of the world is trying to eliminate that.
Once I read the part about the feelings, emotion, and experience the restriction brought was the actual art and not just the paintings, that's when I thought it was clever. The definition of art seems to be ambiguous now, but I understand what she's trying to to do and it's still a clever in that it illicits an effect whether you wanted to visit the museum or not.
I think people say they understand or empathize, but don't really know what it means in a specific context until they experience it IMO.
Since someone else brought up superapps, do they seem like an initial attempt to get around the manufacturer's app store lock-in?
Super apps allow adding mini apps. Seems like an app store.
The goog/apple app stores are already saturated by malware, I can't imagine some mini app store would do better. Even if the big two did do a better job, how would they go about vetting all the code these super apps might have access to?
I guess I'm too jaded, but it seems like just another malware loader you intentionally install.
Am I being too hard on the concept? Are there any really good ones you've used?
I attended three different institutions at various points of my life and still didn't see some of the soft skills and basic business etiquette taught. I see young career people come into business with no idea how to attend meetings, answer phones, deal with expectations, etc. I'm not saying those can't be learned on the job and added on top of an education that was meant to empower people to learn things on their own, but when they're also tens of thousands in dept and can't do basic professional tasks, makes me question what right looks like.
Google IBM m1015 hba, there's a ton on eBay for no money. It used to be TrueNAS go to. There's newer HBAs that are faster, but I don't think it will matter for you
If you do TN, you MUST read the manual and look at their ZFS intro guide. Trust me.
The comment was meant to be syndical and sarcastic.
Of course it's not representative of the entirety.
But it does express my frustration with political hypocrisy and insider trading. I think you'd be hard-pressed to find me any politicians that haven't engaged in that at some point, to some degree. One of the famous ones that comes to mind is Nancy pelosi, but she is not alone, and this is not particular to one party or another, they both definitely engage in it, it's been well documented and is irrefutable.
If you look past one party or another, you'd see that it's a broken system. The fact that it's legal for our elected representatives to conduct in activities that would otherwise be illegal for the general population is outrageous, and the fact that we all know they do it and they are the only ones that can control it in police themselves is also outrageous. It's the only self-serving career that I can think of that is completely unchecked, has unlimited benefits for only 4 years of service, and the only ones that can control it or police it is themselves.
Imagine for a moment that the business world transitioned to Linux, and now there's enormous incentive for all adversaries from state sponsored to financially motivated criminals to spend all their time hunting through linux source code.
Do you think the ideas above stand up? (I'm not saying they dont)
Would linux vulnerabilities be found at a higher rate? I wonder if they aren't now because there aren't as many eyes on them. Sure there's corporate side project efforts and volunteers, just curious how that stacks up against the amount of research happening to break Windows systems.
NSA would definitely want to keep some linux exploits around if their adversaries were using linux instead of windows. I think the result would be the same regarding eternal blue.
being spied on by the government of the country I live in than by a government from a foreign country
Ha, that's a decent point. I don't really care for either. I think about these things among others:
China has proved they are interested in conflict. They haven't used any kinetic/traditional warfare against anyone lately, though they seriously want to with Tiwan.
China has been using nonstop cyber related warfare to conduct espionage, steal trade secrets, position themselves for assisting kinetic warfare with cyber warfare, etc.
I am not a direct target of these, but China killing the power grid or disabling telecommunications does have the potential to have a huge impact on my life.
The US government has used nonstop kinetic and cyber warfare over the last 20+ years.
The US playing world police doesn't directly threaten my safety, but I definitely would be more worried about the US than China if I wasn't a US citizen.
The US government spying on me:
Super annoying mostly due to the principle of a lack of privacy, regardless of whether I do anything bad or not
Becomes a serious problem if I was an active opponent of government policy and elected officials, and the government/leadership deems me a terrorist/insurrectionist/etc.
Their discretion of what's my free speech and right to criticize the government vs leading insurrection would be more complicated if they were using the NSA to own my life and try to use any excuse to lock me up.
I guess I weigh what's more likely to be a problem in my current/future life.
Didn't a couple of people mention that was all of it before a certain year?
I also had no idea museums might have had gender restrictions.
