Yeah, while it is true, lots of VPN companies are grifts just buying VPS's and installing OpenVPN, this "Cyber security expert" puts far too much faith in HTTPS and probably never seen a lecture from the Black Hat conference

Dammit I'm going to be thinking about this for ages, is this to prove you were lower middle class? Like to make sure they were raised on the same "Saturday morning cartoon" upbringing? To see if they only name "Great Value" brand alternatives? To make sure they weren't raised on croissants?

I know I'm giving the Proud Boys far too much credit, but I really thought they only check that you get an erection while reciting the pledge of allegiance.

I know Kellogg's is trying to fix their image since more people became aware of the anti-masturbation thing but this is not a good sponsorship deal to do that

Hey look if you start taking away white male privilege they freak out when they find out people of other races, genders and creeds are better than them, who knew?

I believe the answer lies in bureaucracy.

You're allowed to be intolerant but you gotta fill out just a bunch of paperwork to do so. And if someone to pay a fee, fill in several forms, submit to an ID chrck and wait 6 weeks just to get a literal N word pass, then yeet.

Go look at a Bunnings or Reece, 90% of their models since about 2018 have been with poop shelves. Granted, that does mean it will take a while before they're everywhere, but it's only a matter of time.

Lib Dems: "oh for fucks sake, this country is going to be handed to us looking like prophylactic bin of a whorehouse."

Hence the "poop shelf" which has taken over toilets in the last decade

Actually we don't wrap ourselves in bubble wrap, we use biodegradable air cushions. Which even Amazon switched to so they must work better.

I listened to The Foundering on Sam Altman at the same time as listening to The Power Broker and they weirdly synced up.

  • They only have one solution for everything, believing more of that thing will solve everything ("Just one more scrape, just one more scrape of everything that's been said or published anywhere and our next model will be perfect.")
  • They don't care for the destruction left in their wake
  • They will walk over everyone, including their own family to remain part of the conversation
  • The only difference is Robert Moses was constrained to New York

Oh a Jewish magazine which appears to have a strong focus on journalistic integrity, let's have a look at their Gaza coverage.... sigh I guess we can't have everything.

Three million malware-infected smart toothbrushes used in Swiss DDoS attacks — botnet causes millions of euros in damages

I meet my 10-year-old self in 1987. I tell him I live in the future of 2024.

"2024! Wow! Do you have flying cars?"

"No."

"Oh. Well do you have Mars colonies?"

"No."

"Huh. Well you've gotta have a cure for every disease!"

"No."

"What do you have?!"

"We have a toothbrush that bad people can control remotely."

"...do I have to grow up?"

"Yes."

Elmo’s wellness check uncovers existential dread and despair on social media, nobody's ok right now

 

I can't believe how many virtual meetings in the last three years that people are still sharing their screens.

People seem to share their screens in 3 situations:

  1. Showing or explaining a document. Whether it be a slideshow or written document, people seem obsessed with idea that no one else knows how to read or that they write just as incompetently as they present.
  2. Explaining procedure. I get it, things can be complicated. Learn to screen record.
  3. Collaboration. Most conferencing apps have a whiteboard or other document creation apps have real time collaboration. You just don't want to use these things because you want to be in 100% control of what's being written down. You don't want a meeting, go do your own things, if you feel obligated to turn it into a meeting you just want attention.

We all have a limited time on this earth. We're not going to remember or care about the meetings in a year or two. Go find something meaningful to do with your life. Stop sharing your screen, and even better yet, don't have the meeting at all. We're not going to look back at the end of our lives and wish we'd had more meetings.
