geekworking,

The government buys your data, too. And not just your government.

For any legal case, government or your spouse’s divorce attorney, it’s a low bar to soupeana “business records” from these companies.

The US needs stronger data protection and privacy laws. Unfortunately, the corporations buy enough politicians to prevent it.

geekworking,

Somebody could go to jail for this. You.

The DMCA makes it a felony to circumvent protections in services. If they wanted to push this and depending on the system disabling or using some hack to bypass could be illegal.

I don’t think that anyone would actually bring the case against an individual, but a company selling any sort of device or instructions to make it easier for people could be targeted.

geekworking,

Things never work out the way that you plan.

It’s a fine line between a clean noble death and being the guy who strokes out on the treadmill, falls, gets his nut sack wrapped up in the belt.

geekworking,

Hopefully, every bank is on to his scams at this point and would require 3rd party appraisals.

I would be more concerned that he would use it to launder money. For example, he can’t use campaign money to pay his civil judgment, but his campaign could “rent” some space and other services from Trump corp for exorbitant amounts to raise the funds to pay the loan. He has been using the scam to launder Russia mob money since the 80s.

geekworking,

Maybe he believed it, maybe not.

My take is that Bush was trying to sell the WMD bullshit so hard he wouldn’t be above telling allies that he could make flying monkeys shoot out of his ass if he thought that it would get him any support for his war to enrich defense contractors.

geekworking,

You can be the prey.

geekworking,

Just like the door gunner in Full Metal Jacket.

Anyone who runs is an illegal. Anyone who stands still is a well disciplined illegal.

geekworking,

Too bad he wasn’t making dumb comments about Linux.

I’d love to see Linus unload one of his smack down rants on Elon.

House China committee demands Elon Musk open SpaceX Starshield internet to U.S. troops in Taiwan (www.cnbc.com)

The House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party sent a letter on Saturday to SpaceX and Tesla CEO Elon Musk demanding that U.S. troops stationed in Taiwan get access to SpaceX's Starshield, a satellite communication network designed specifically for the military....

geekworking,

Why TF are we renting military stuff from any 3rd party and essentially giving them control to override the military chain of command in the first place? I can’t see this sitting well with anyone on the military side of this.

geekworking,

What serious coder is happy with one monitor?

geekworking,

Letter from Specialty Response Dept.

Seems like working there would get the award for the most interesting horrible job.

geekworking,

“What do you have on under the kilt”?

… Shitty Antiques.

anti-vaccine protest at a Burger King

Trying to wrap my head around that one. The clientele of BK are not known for being concerned about what goes into their bodies.

geekworking,

With the extremely limited info available, it could also be two people who were wildly shooting at each other in a crowd. It would not be the first time that some stupid beef between people at a celebration escalates into a gun battle that takes out more bystanders than participants.

geekworking,

Wow. The Wikipedia article on the song has a picture of Trump Sr sporting a Hitler mustache after WWII.

geekworking,

Fat fingering BGP config has nuked the internet quite a few times already.

geekworking,

Time by Pink Floyd.

Back in the day. Moped, cassette Walkman, and very early wired earbuds. The engine noise covered the several minutes of ticking in the beginning, so it seemed like the tape had stopped. Then the alarm clocks kicked in and startled me so badly that I almost crashed.

geekworking,

Some military charges like conduct unbecoming would be nice, too. The military courts don’t fuck around.

geekworking,

This flaw is not really that bad because it requires the attacker to already have total and complete control over the system already. For example, if they were able to steal the root password.

This flaw just makes it easier for the attacker to hide and harder to evict them.

geekworking,

If he admits perjury, his credibility is gone, and nobody would want to use him in any other case regardless of any deal.

geekworking,

I am more concerned about the innocent people who will pay for the assholes “bad idea” will their lives.

geekworking,

Living near the ocean, seeing old buildings with doors only a couple of feet above the water amazes me.

Where we are, even bays and inland waterways are tidal and subject to tidal and storm surge flooding. You need to be at least 10-15 feet above sea level or in is just a matter of time until it gets washed away.

geekworking,

East coast of the US. The “100 year” flood zone covers places that are miles away from the ocean, bays, etc. The water works its way up tidal creeks. Anything directly on the water gets flooded on a fairly regular basis.
