Three rules in FBI firearm training: 1. Always point your weapon downrange 2. Do not point your weapon at anything you do not intend to shoot 3. Don’t put your finger on the trigger unless you intend to shoot Guns are not for threatening compliance for unarmed people doing things you don’t like

Every day Mamdani comes out and is like "hey guys, I turned off the orphan-crushing machine. Literally just had to flip a switch. Took less than 5 minutes." After decades of dem leadership pissing and moaning and fundraising about how complex an issue it is and how difficult the process is etc

There's a fine line between bragging about your homelab setup and providing the feds exhibit A Bro has 80 home cameras?

I'm hoping at a certain point YouTube premium revenue falls because so many creators are burnt out by having to feed the abusive content machine.

A hacker gained control of a 1,100 mobile phone farm powering covert, AI-generated ads on TikTok.

A few weeks ago, I bought a small piece of Dubai chocolate shaped as a labubu from a Yemeni coffee shop. It cost, I shit you not, about 6 or 7 dollars, depending on cost with or without sales tax. I just wanted to try the chocolate.

Throwback to the Xmas when I spoofed mobile game ads too accurately, and no one clicked on the video.

DAMMIT TOM, I TOLD YOU, IF THE APP SAYS THEY'RE OUT OF JALAPINO POPPERS THEY'RE NOT GOING TO MAGICALLY HAVE THEM WHEN WE GET TO THE DRIVE THROUGH.

So we're doing ads in Bluesky just not labeling them as ads?

Is anyone else surprised it took this long for people to figure out that Oracle E-Business Suite is a total security dumpster fire? It should be front ended by an app proxy with a strong auth front end. If you need expertise in this area make sure to follow @petefinnigan.bsky.social

Imagine, at the very end of Pluribus, the protagonist, having lived through the transformation of the whole human race around her, doesn't change. That would be terrible. Or not. Walter White never did. Maybe the alien virus gets a narrative arc instead
