What about the other though.

I’m against US imperialism.

So I believe the only truth must be either the perfect opposite of what they are saying, or the propaganda of their adversaries.

Well I think Schumer may be more UNIVERSALLY hated, because he sucks for both sides. If you think tax cuts for the rich are great, that Isreal should be able to do whatever the hell it wants, that wars are a good thing, you’ll love McConnel, Schumer on the other hand sometimes says words to pretend to oppose those things.

So in short, if you are pro-fascist you hate schumer a little, if you are anti-fascist you hate schumer a lot… but at the end of the day, no one likes him, except for maybe the people that support his role as the person hired to lose.

I mean easy enough to recreate it with a more open database, but yeah key issue is userbase. Same flaw with trying to make a better dating site, or anything else location specific. It’s barely feasible for things like lemmy and mastadon where we pull from international pools of people that mostly don’t care if the other users are 500 miles away.

When you try to do a facebook equivelant, doesn’t really go anywhere because, people don’t need just people, but people they actually know.

and yeah trying to get “people in the same city”.

as obviously one guy just reporting the gas stations around him, for an application that only he uses, is just a fancy notebook, and the real problem is would he continue using it long enough for a second to appear and make it actually beneficial for anyone.

I mean the obvious thing is, we haven’t come close to finding a loophole to the speed of light speed limit. in the massively tiny portion of the universe we can see, there’s lots of “seems to have water, could possibly support life” planets, but well over 80 light years away (and those are the “close” ones).

Then if we do assume some life forms were to have faster than light travel, we are probably not a “no contact”, but rather “low priority”. To a species that far ahead of us technologically. They’d have access to billions of planets, at which point if life is relatively common, we’d be very un-special.

question I guess is, will the trend reverse when education gets worse?

I’d say because half of america’s goals involve not understanding other cultures and believing whatever nonsense the corporate overlords want to say about them.

I still have to laugh at when american’s went on chinese tiktok to work around the possible bans, and the chinese were all like “wait, you really do have to pay out the nose for an ambulance ride, I thought that was propoganda by our government” meanwhile a lot of american’s were learning half of the horrors of china were extremely overstated or manipulated.

Which, some how the Dodge waste fraud and abuse team, never seemed to get around to investigating… They claimed they would, but I guess were too busy gutting everything that was investigating musks companies before getting bored with it.

Basically yes, look up additive vs subtractive colors… that’s why for a monitor you need RGB, but ink cartrages are Cyan Magenta and Yellow

In short, colored light, and pigments work in opposite ways. Basically all visible light mixes together to make white light. Blue paint, basically absorbs the red and green light, allowing only the blue to bounce back… so mixing more colors of paint, means less light. until almost nothing gets out (hence black). But on a light source, more colors = more light, leading towards white.

Also I do have to worry quite a bit, Didn’t both epstien, and one of his victims make very similar statements, before they supposedly killed themselves. Admitted I guess with more public visibility that MTG and Massie have when they did theirs, and the much increased attention of the public on the matter, it should be impossible to kill either of them without multiplying the public suspision by a factor of 100.

Usually, conspiracy theories feed on an absence of information, not a glut. But the Justice Department’s release of more than three million pages, 2,000 videos and 180,000 images has done little to smother baseless speculation or fabrication.

Well duh… it’s still the absenses. It’s just the glut is highlighting what’s intentionally removed.

If I’m reporting a robbery of my convenience store. if I said I had no security camera footage of the event… that’s a little weird.

If I report a robbery, and I do have security footage, but there’s a mysterious black bar over the robbers face… you might think it’s an inside job.

I wish democrats had a spine and a sense of humor… I’d say “OK I’ll take the unfreeze and I promise to name the airport after you, put it in writing and we will do this deal”.

then announce the new “Trump is in the Epstein files” airport.

2 fronts I’d say.

1. Yeah it makes it clear someone breaking in, was doing the effort to conciously get into something that he wasn’t permitted to rather than just, opened the wrong door.

Also would point out, low knowledge low effort crooks, really 9/10 situations there’s an easier way to get in than the lock. Your house is far more likely to be broken in by someone smashing a window rather than picking a lock.

The OG GOAT (se)

and what isn’t… pretty sure in a Ross Ulbricht situation… there was more than enough stuff he needed to remain private currently open, and in the main files. Ulbright could have been on a live CD on a computer with no physical hard drive, and it wouldn’t have helped him since they nailed him after he had logged into the silk road.

and security on pages is useless if you are logged in.

We’re already talking the least of security problems (IE the device being physically confiscated).

In ross’s case which hurt him more do you think, the fact that his system probably had logs of what he installed… or the fact that it was taken while he was logged in as administrator to the silk road? and it supposedly contained a journal… not system logs, but activities that he specifically wrote out detailing his daily activities.

The point again is someone gaining physical access to the computer itself, while you are literally in the process of doing things that you don’t want known about, what you are currently working on is 100x more valuable to the thief, feds or whatever, than any of the low level stuff that the logs are likely to be recording.

am I missing something though, I’m assuming there’s like 18 democrats inn that committee so, what good does giving them the monopoly on questions on anything that matters.

You posted this same silly thing about 3 days ago.

anyway why isn’t the advice “encrypt your drives” instead of “disable all logging”.

I mean your own examples are like the least serious problem.

Who is logged in and when? So we’re talking a multi user system that’s clearly hosting a lot… that’s kind of important for an administrator to be able to track who is logging in when, to know if something goes wrong.

Package manager logs what’s installed. well duh, what’s the scenerio that this is even a factor? I don’t want big government to know I had, qbittorrent or whatever? There’s no program that’s likely installed via apt that’s illegal to have.

So yeah in short, stuff that’s vital if you ever need to troubleshoot, useful in general, almost unthinkable to imagine situations where this is a problem (at least in situations in which someone has your user account, or root access to your system for these to be the high priority.

On the whole the idea there is like.

“If someone steals your car… they could also steal the car users manual”.

don’t they actually have something like that in russia, like their top hockey team has to fake losing to putin like he’s a make a wish kid?

Edit: found video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgbI55HdqQs

What’s the official rules on what they can share? Like could Ro Khanna do like a AMA where we give him page numbers… solid targetted list of

“OK so who messaged epstien about the littlest girl being very naughty”, who all were the co-conspirators listed on page X, etc…

Is that information considered classified he’d go to jail for it? I mean technically everythings supposed to have been released from the get go…

Because we honestly, we’ve seen more than enough to know heads need to roll, hell we can point to so many points in the files where we can see specific people that’s heads should be rolling where we just lack the names.

I think there’s a bit of that, but also a bit of… unsubtle enshittification. I mean the obvious, AI features that nobody likes getting crammed into everything. Apples Intelligence making siri unable to do simple tasks it used to be able to do easily.

A lot of people would be happy to pay premium price for things that do exactly what they want. But more and more software companies are reversing what they do… and even when they do what you want, you still have to be vigilant on them changing their minds and removing features, or adding subscription costs etc…
