the kimmel thing is bad but as long as they arent rounding people up indiscriminately based on race, building concentration camps and talking about eradicating those they deem sexual deviants, i think we’ll be ok

From Wired a few weeks ago. A lot of the people who I was told for years were the adults in the room are being asked how they want to be remembered, and that answer is very clearly "cowards." www.wired.com/story/uncann...

when your wars are too crimey even for john yoo, boy howdy

EFF is always so proud to represent security researchers doing important work. Our Coders' Rights Project often works with DEFCON presenters, and two of our clients are presenting today about schools, bathroom vape detectors, and audio recordings. www.wired.com/story/schoo...

✨Tomorrowwwww!✨

Someone recently pointed out that a huge portion of those who die from measles without vaccination are in fact those with other conditions. That is actually the goal of RFK Jr. It's a cull.

New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!

Hacker builds a pocket-sized Flock Safety camera detector based on the Bluetooth method I describe in my blog posts. www.hackster.io/news/colonel...

The thing about Robert E Lee is he should have been executed in front of the gutted husk of a torched Virginia plantation mansion, and that should have been his official portrait, and we should have put it on our money.

Everybody who claims they they "use HTTP" but don't do it like this is a phoney github.com/pfrazee/http...

Once upon a time I worked at a place where the CEO, who had an office with a door and windows, packed all the rank and file workers into a windowless open room because it was good for “collaboration” and “productivity” When asked if he’d be joining us, he refused. “I couldn’t get anything done!”

And truly, they are

There's a lot of people who insisted when you blow up society you start from the baselines of the liberal world order. Those who knew better of course needed legions of suckers. You can't beat the ride.

I think really the story of the past ten years was people taking for granted 21st century liberalism was locked in and therefore you could just kinda be fashy for a laugh only to realize a moment too late Skinhead Steve wasn’t joking after all.

I assume he orders the robots to kill the poor, hungry, and diseased people and then has the AI write his texts to his children

Some people are concerned coding agents will stop me from learning code. I appreciate the concern, but I'm 39. I've been coding all my life. I know too much about code. Please release me from my prison of knowledge

Taking this away is worse than never having offered it in the first place (though I wonder how many Americans were aware of this new rule)

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires Republicans to act in good faith.

Trickle Down to Hell, bitch

This thread is incredible.

Health insurance companies will spend unlimited amounts of money on everything except *checks notes* actually providing health care

Was a ton of fun to talk about the 0day market and Pall Mall at Summercon! Thanks for having me 💕

Word's getting around now!

Isn't it weird how we have examples of once believed relatively harmless viruses causing serious problems later in life and people still don't care about contracting a brand new novel one, multiple times?

I saw this poster on eBay. It was way too expensive. Then I realized which shuttle it was. I did some digging and IBM HQ immediately recalled and destroyed them. Guess they missed one. Whatever, it was my birthday a few days ago. $350 later and this is on the way to my apartment.

I mean, if everything is going in the shitter, there’s no reason to have anti-gay people have all the fun; start making religious objections to all sorts of stuff. The Ten Commandments getting put into class all over, for instance. That’s at least 40% religious orthodoxy.

We could avoid all these annoying debates about whether Fahrenheit or Celsius is better if we just abolished numbers like I've been arguing for for some indeterminate amount of years

Excavator everyday

No one ever realizes this but I say "I pretty much just say whatever I want" pretty frequently and I'm actually quoting Christopher Walken in an SNL sketch where he claims that he ignores the script and just does whatever he feels like. 🤷‍♀️😄

I remember people giving Kamala Harris shit for using wired headphones, as Vice President of the United States

It is pathetic how easily network news executives let right wingers manipulate them. Terry Moran rightly calls Stephen Miller a hater driven by bile, and ABC News accepts the idea that this is “unhinged” behavior. Critiquing people abusing their power is the JOB of journalism.

Absolutely surreal to have lived through the Napster days and watched as the titans of industry moved hell and high water to lock down any possible chance that someone's song might get swapped online without giving the studios a cut and now those same people are just like "well we gotta steal music"

"I wish it need not happened in my time," said Frodo. "So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us." We must defend those targeted by TFG to resolve their fear.

American politics in a nutshell: 1. Democrats don’t use power because they’re afraid Republicans will do it too 2. Republicans do it anyway 3. Repeat
