The alternative is a literal Nazi posting racist cartoon depicting Obama as monkey, not to mention a few murders here and there, and a promise to deploy armed Gestapo to watch the election. But worry not. You prople did very well not woting for a weak candidate.

Alas, you have a strong one now.

Russia had no significant gains over the last years with half a million casualties (KIA, MIA, lost limbs, war prisoners), the logistics is crumbling — they use donkeys, the economy and demographic are in the toilet but Russia is extremely good at spreading propaganda. So much so that the US admin is parroting it and putting pressure on Ukraine.

I volunteer in my free time so that more Russian occupiers will be eliminated. I’m very proud of myself.

From Ukrainian who grew up facing Russian imperialism and oppression of my culture. From Ukrainian who stood up on both revolutions against Russian puppet dictators — fuck you, piece of ignorant shit. You are complicit in Russian genocide against us. You are my enemy.

While working on Borderlands 3, the team was severely underpaid. People started quitting, so Randy promised them an “unprecedented company profit-sharing bonus model.” That never got paid—he blamed “higher-than-anticipated development costs and sales not meeting projections.” Borderlands 3 went GOTY, a few dozens millions copies sold. Randy secured a $12M executive bonus for himself. When staff expressed dissatisfaction, Pitchford told them they were free to quit. This was in the middle of the pandemic, and the job market was absolute crap.

Elevator, all public transport, buildings. There’s more space outside. Stop cramping.

No, this is have enough canned food scenario.

If the money would wipe out from the economy, that is less money for everyone. First round of bankruptcies will also wipe out contractors and debt issuers of the bancrupted companies, and so on. Mass layoffs. People cannot afford restaurants, or car washes, more businesses out, more mass layoffs.

In 2001 tech bubble the money haven't been lost. Virtual valuation dropped sharply. But the economy recovered in a year.

This is like 2008, money have been poured into concrete and silicon chips. They were spend, gone for good. It will take a few good years to recover if the bubble would burst.

I'm free to elect whoever, Russia is free to fuck off from MY country. Before you start repeating Russian propaganda about opressing Russian speaking (me btw, I am Russian-speaking Ukrainian), go watch Putin whose cock you suck, he openly says he's waging the war of conquest.

I'm missing artisanal, carefully crafted software from before LLM times. Microsoft Teams, Eclipse, Elastic, Lotus Notes even, and every website, well-thought and carefully optimized, taking its 30 second to load carefully picked handcrafted ads with broken CSS and color palette causing epileptic seizures. But sure.

Software has been horrible for the last 20 years. Photoshop slop was replaced by AI slop. LLMs have replaced software bootcamps.
Here's Tom with the weather.

The NSA wasn't able to break Tor fundamentally, even with spanning numerous exit nodes to intercept traffic, and high-scale traffic correlation between enter and exit nodes

"We will never be able to de-anonymize all Tor users all the time." It continues: "With manual analysis we can de-anonymize a very small fraction of Tor users," and says the agency has had "no success de-anonymizing a user in response" to a specific request.

I'm surprised to read the whole thread and nobody mentioned that TorBrowser is the goat for daily anonymous browsing.

Indeed, those are anti-tank mines, absolutely harmless to humans.

I was working on a C code base with classes, inheritance, and polymorphism, all done by hands and macros.

Something like

typedef struct s_some_class {
    void (*method)(this *s_some_class);
} t_some_class;

Overall, learning C was the best enabler in my whole career. For instance I was learning Python by tinkering with CPython VM, so when I see these ‘WAT’ quircks I know exactly what’s up.

It is illegal to keep deleted profiles

I wouldn’t call it a shit show, they were first in E2E encrypted collaborative messaging platforms and get all the hits. Moderation turned out to be incompatible with E2E encryption. People kicked out of channels can still decrypt because keys revocation hasn’t been made.

Matrix server is a resource hog and a mess, and the protocol has never took off to spark alternative implementations.

Encryption doesn’t scale well for big channels.

They got many things right, but got crippled by many things they couldn’t possibly predict.

If you’d replace the word ‘flattened’ with the specific term ‘unwrapped’ it’s starting to make even more sense.
