  • Three streaming (like pointed in the other comment) was my initial reaction too, but indeed at the time https for streaming would be very rare.

    Another possibility is to realize that openssl isn't just for communication, but also has implementation of cryptographic algorithms.

    Perhaps openssl was used for validation of licensing key? For example they could sign the license with their private key and WinAmp could verify it's authenticity with its public key.

  • Notice that UltraAV belongs to UltraVPN, company that looks like it's under Chinese control (despite ban on VPNs they are suspiciously allowed to operate there)

    UltraAV is basically non-existent outside of this news, so it likely is Kaspersky in new skin too bypass federal regulation.

  • Looking at the historical election wins where president with lower popular vote won, trump clearly is outlier and either had outrageous luck (I doubt it) or help to push things just enough to get enough EC votes.

    Of course this help, that he got in 2016 he still is getting right now so we should still assume odds will be in his favor and make won't get suspended and vote (the more people vote, the harder is to artificially affect the results).

  • Fuck that. I just want our law to apply equally so he would be in prison, like any of us would for the same crime.

    The latest move of delaying the sentencing to 2 weeks after election is appealing. He announced he is running AFTER DOJ started investigating him and now judge is afraid to sentence it because GOP picked him despite being a convicted felon?

    What's worst is that if he wins the sentence likely will be a slap in the wrist, because they won't want him for example using military to avoid jail. If he loses the election, then he will immediately appeal, and likely judge will allow him to remain free during appeal process.

    We have two tier justice system.

  • Amazing. As if these communities are made with thousands of people having different opinions.

    And here's mine: since Google used their position to essentially destroy any competition in this area, why should be my duty to protect their revenue? Even if I can afford to pay their services, I won't and will actively discourage anyone else from doing so, by installing uBlock, ReVanced, NewPipe, SmartTube, GrayJay etc.

  • Yeah, we (the West) screwed up big time. If Ukraine got full help in 2022, this war likely would be over the same year. Russia was very disorganized in initial invasion, and Ukraine only needed a bigger kick to push them back all the way.
