No. I am not.

But it won’t be “OK” to do. And things that aren’t OK can be prosecuted.

You’re expecting Biden to do your revolution for you lmao

If the system is as broken as you say that you need the president to commit crimes, get out of your armchair.

Facebook is Meta, no one cares about Microsoft.

So the acronym is MANGA

All y’all are forgetting that if Biden does some wild shit, it would create a precedent and make it OK for Trump to do it too. Please think literally one step ahead.

No alert development, threat hunting, or ML research? No upskilling of any kind? Must be nice to work at a company with no impact to the world when it gets popped.

The infomercial guy died in 2009.

Defragging is about… defragging: making the data contiguous (a continuous stream along one arc of the same radius) so it doesn’t have to jump around.

The 3DS got rooted by playing a music file. Anything can happen homie.

You sound fun at (key signing) parties

So what if a site had terms of use so they can gain that right? Would you turn off your adblockers then?

Jumping a turnstile is less theft than adblocking. That subway train is gonna run whether I’m there or not. On a site, you are more directly consuming their resources.

In any case, due to capitalism you can’t give companies an inch cuz they are required to abuse the shit out of it to squeeze out as much money as possible. It’s not enough to show an ad at the start of a YouTube video, now you have to have multiple unskippable ads at the start and also in the middle of it too. And that’s not enough either, now you gotta track people across websites, even if they aren’t logged in, to show more ads. And that’s not enough either, now you gotta sell user data because if you don’t, you’re leaving money on the table. It’s gross.

Yea but you need the owner account to authorize the computer. So next time you upgrade or wipe your gaming rig you’d be screwed unless you find a bypass and if you’re working that hard, just have the password+mfa

If you have the PDFs of that, you can build it with two clicks in GCP

Are you saying Teslas are simple?

There’s no King of the Alphabet People dictating and controlling exactly how everyone behaves. You’re dealing with individuals who due to America’s (and other) shitty government are dealing with a literal existential crisis. This is a terrifying position to be in. Unfortunately I consider it normal and expected that in a situation like this for people to feel cornered and viciously protective of their safe spaces.

It’s not impossible to have a good faith discussion over the Internet. But not everyone wants to have those discussions. Not everyone wants to actually educate and recruit allies. Yes, notice I said “recruit” - it takes mutual effort to build that relationship, and that means both sides need to chill the fuck out and talk without alienating the other.

I’ll take that bet. Even a standard S3 bucket is “encrypted”.

My Asus motherboard started bluescreening Windows. After a lot of effort I traced it down to a specific device ID that windows was loading firmware for. No matter what I tried I couldn’t get this auto installation to stop. It was a totally random component that added nothing I could tell.

Asus refused to release new firmware be cause the motherboard was “unsupported” even though the box etc has stickers saying it supports windows 10.

After a ton more effort I figured out how to make some low end api calls that eventually stopped this auto installation. It was mostly reliable. I got to crack a lot of jokes to my friends about my motherboard not supporting windows but it was a really hard period for me particularly because Linux gaming wasn’t as strong as it is today. I was really big into league of legends at the time and this experience forced me to quit, losing touch with many friends in the process.

My point was related to people that like the art, since there’s much less incentive to buy the game if you don’t like the world it’s build from.

Rowling didn’t create the game, dude. She just gets a cut of the money. You think everyone in the dev team feels that way? Are we just supposed to not get a game set in a beloved universe because the person who owns the IP is a piece of shit?

At this stage it might even be too crazy to say that she’s so rich that the money she’s getting from this game is a drop in the bucket and has no practical negative impact on society. She will have the same influence with or without it, so might as well buy the game.

Wow it came out in 2014 and was patented in 2021 which means it’s locked until 2028? That’s not fair. The patent should have been 2014-2021 not 2021-2028. How can you patent something that’s already released to the public, why is that allowed.
