Only comic who was in all six seasons, no less.

There’s no stopping this disaster at this point. It was nice being the dominant species.

We now have definitive proof that human intelligence isn’t the net evolutionary positive we thought it was.

Dom Irerra was more open about his sexuality than a lot of the comics of his time, and it always made me respect him.

Rewatching Dr. Katz and thinking about the time period it was in, sometimes Dom feels absolutely subversive to the times.

His obsessive love for Dr. Katz is something a lot of men comics would have been afraid to commit to, even to this day.

Exactly. I have services running with staggered automated updates/reboots to keep things stable. Since at least one of them is always available, it’s like having no down-time but with actual stability and redundancy.

Musk is loud and dumb so he gets most of the attention for this sort of shit but Zuckerberg seems calculatingly evil.

One way to avoid it is to prioritize GOG copies if they’re available. Since GOG has no DRM they tend to generally be untouched.

Jokes on you I’m using it to be disappointed in myself.

I have all my devices set to reboot once weekly a few hours after daily scheduled updates. I probably don’t need to do this, but I do. It’s a habit I got in with scheduling router reboots, and then started extending it to other devices. It’s nice to have some solid uptime, but I have three unbound DNS servers in sequence so they update and reboot on a staggered schedule so it’s like they never go down.

You never know when the odd cosmic ray is gonna hit and flip yer bits.

I literally had a friend breaking down over it and I suggested Fediverse alternatives and they looked at me like I had sprouted an extra head.

I even explained that US companies aren’t doing anything materially different than Tiktok (propaganda and spying on people), and they’re all bad. Still looking at me like I’m some kind of maniac.

Everyone bitches about corporations but so few want to actually stop sucking on their fucking teat.

to Better Attack Jack Humans

This is just a reminder, the parallels between Trump and Hitler are many.

Trump hates drinking and smoking while Hitler also hated drinking and smoking.

If they represent what “sober” is, I’ll take any and all drugs mainlined into my veins till the end of time please and thank you.

So what’s the point of it all?

To reduce wages.

Instead of using tech to reduce work and allow humans to thrive and make art, we use tech to make art and force humans into long hours of drudgery and repetitive bitch work just because CEOs like to watch other people suffer I guess.

So glad they can get groceries for a month.

Now that’s an answer I can get behind.

Woosh. We’re decentralizing everything except the hardware and everyone’s like bUt iTs dEcEnTrALiZeD!

That’s because those are Branding places. They’re places to sell your Brand. It’s why business profiles are interchangeable with personal profiles, it’s about branding.

Branding isn’t just for corporate products anymore, it’s for everyone, apparently.

It’s the whole “influencer’s real lives are a lot less glamorous than their Insta leads you to believe,” which is totally true, most of the clothes are rented and they get to stay maybe 24 hours in a nice place just for a photo shoot, then they’re sent back to their crappy apartment.

Asmongold is a gross dumb piece of shit but openly living in filth is at least being honest about how most of these influencers actually live.

It’s all smoke and mirrors for branding. Real people with real lives don’t spend their time managing their “brand” anywhere, whether it’s Instagram or LinkedIn because, by definition, we have real lives and real connections with real people already.

Given the number of servers run by KAX17 the calculated probability of a Tor user connecting to the Tor network through one of KAX17’s servers was 16%, there was a 35% chance they would pass through one of its middle relays, and up to 5% chance to exit through one.

This would give the threat actor ample opportunity to perform a Sybil attack. A Sybil attack is a type of attack on a computer network service where an attacker subverts the service’s reputation system by creating a large number of pseudonymous identities and uses them to gain a disproportionately large influence. This could lead to the deanonymization of Tor users and/or onion services.

Given the cost and effort put into this and the fact that actors performing attacks in non-exit positions are considered more advanced adversaries because these attacks require a higher sophistication level and are less trivial to pull off, it is highly likely this is the work of a high-level (state-sponsored?) threat actor. As for who is behind this group, neither Nusenu nor the Tor Project wanted to speculate.

A spokesperson for the Tor Project confirmed Nusenu’s latest findings and said it had also removed a batch of KAX17 malicious relays.

“Once we got contacted, we looked through all the relays in the network and identified several hundred relays that are very likely belonging to the same group and removed them on November 8.”

VPN’s also by definition still use the same corporate pipes as anything else.

That’s literally the same point I was making, that your protocol can be blocked when they’ve decided they don’t like it.

That’s rather missing the point, an integrity check doesn’t solve the fact that to communicate with anyone, you have to do it through giant corporations pipes.

An integrity check doesn’t help when an ISP have straight blocked your protocols traffic, like Comcast previously did with bittorrent.

Can we stop sucking down the preachings of an idiot like Jack Dorsey? We don’t actually have net neutrality, so it’s totally within their current rights to just block traffic they don’t like.
