When you’re doom posting about how everything is inevitable and no one can stop them, you’re doing their work for them. Stop that

out of my depth on any foreign policy thing but seems clear that at least some real part of this is fueled out of, if not a kind of boredom, a very real desire to entertain themselves because they are absolutely not interested in governing beyond shows of force they can post about online

Let's not start the memes. Just...I know people laugh to keep from crying but nah

This is a good time to actually be honest about the country.

Feel free not to displace your anger onto people who are simply stating facts. Knowing who to actually be mad at is praxis.

Guys, are we just allowed to bomb sovereign countries and kidnap their leaders on a whim???

"you're more amazing than you look". My child to my friend today 😅😮‍💨

The fact she didn't pronounce his middle name right either will eat at me lol

NYPD being like "no Flippers or Pis!" while effectively having a police state tech wise.

New York’s incoming mayor bans Raspberry Pi at his inauguration party

you can, and with cash! however the vending machines are not rolled out at every station but increasingly available omny.info/omny-card

I have to see if I still have my metro card as a little token to the past. Omny basically locks everyone into a trackable system to an account or your bank card. And that makes me sad. I'm not sure if you can get a standalone Omny card or not.

39C3: Hardware, and the Hard Bit

A great CCC talk & I hope many in the age assurance crowd listens. My only nit is that there *are* techs in this space trying to be critical & thoughtful this year while sacrificing hours of our time dealing with technosolutionism & privacy nihilism simultaneously media.ccc.de/v/39c3-not-a...

Hot take before I turn my brain off to anything work related. Any messaging platform that specifically courts or caters to the right, will eventually erode user trust in some fashion. No matter how good the crypto is. The ecosystem determines the future actions of that platform.

Data breaches affect everyone, and this year we saw plenty of them, ranging from the novel to the predictable. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

CBP, DEA and local law enforcement agencies have created a massive surveillance dragnet targeting drivers on highways along the US-Mexico border. Here's how to spot automated license plate readers by the roadside. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

It may feel like the whole idea of protecting yourself online is too big of an issue to tackle. But we can take small steps to better protect our own privacy and build an online space that feels as free and safe as speaking with those close to us in the offline world. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

One of the biggest assumptions I've seen with digital ID is that TEEs can't be compromised to the point of leaking sensitive credentials. Which feels like a naive approach and I don't see any back up plans if that happens.

a cool thing is you can just make a big ol’ pot of soup whenever you feel like and no one can stop you and it’ll make you feel real cozy

I know this is small peanuts but I have to complain about this again. The way that DoorDash makes it hard to tip NYC delivery drivers is so disgusting to me. I wrote this last year and sort of forgot about it — until tonight, when I ran into the same issue. www.theverge.com/2024/5/3/241...

I spent too long trying to figure out why he keeps pushing the “hottest country” thing and I am mad

it's crazy how many grown ass adults - including some who don't even consider themselves conservative - are just casually throwing around language that for most of my life even most conservatives simply grew out of by their late teens

like before it can even occur to me to take offense at the bigotry i'm struck with secondhand embarassment that an adult cusses like a middle schooler

I don't know who needs to hear this one, but saying you hung out with "actual Nazis" will never be the flex you thought it was.

The truly depressing part of this ad is how misanthropic and miserable it is. "The holidays suck, wouldn't you rather just go to Mcdonalds?" To have a village, you must be a villager. But our society is controlled by losers who can't even handle the mild inconveniences of having people who love you

McDonald's has released an AI-generated Christmas ad The studio behind it says they 'hardly slept' for several weeks while writing AI prompts and refining the shots — 'AI didn't make this film. We did' Comments have been turned off on YouTube

Well, now we are in the era of blatant racism being back in style AND left leaning content creator analysis on anything involving race dynamics where it probably doesn't apply. What a time

Chat Control has seen many different iterations over the years, and now that it’s coming up on final negotiations, what the proposal does and doesn’t protect can be confusing. Here’s what’s going on. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

South Korea’s AI learning program was rolled back after just four months following a backlash from teachers, students, and parents alike https://restofworld.org/2025/south-korea-ai-textbook/?utm_campaign=row-social&utm_source=bluesky&utm_medium=social&utm_content=1764037440

That poor baby that was extracted from his mother is 11 lbs and still can't breathe on his own. All those doctors involved need to catch hands.
