Not paying your workers well doesn't even make sense financially, what do they think people do with extra money? Corporations shoot themselves in the foot, and then ask all of us to stop the bleeding.
just checked a major review site and not a single smart TV was released in the past two years without integrated ads that you can't opt out from or disable. that's depressing.
While I will get an email the Framework 13 AMD 7840U being shipped out in the middle of November possibly so I can move all the Cevio AI and Recotte Studio stuff off my GPD Win 4 (I still need to make the Japanese script for my brief thoughts on Oshi ga Budoukan Itte Kuretara Shinu).
If the AMD Ryzen 8050/9050 have a newer version of USB4 that provides the speeds of Thunderbolt 5, I may consider upgrading the mainboard and making the old one a ESXi node.
:neocat_think:
That if, Framework doesn’t come out with a Snapdragon X Elite mainboard, if that is even possible.
my favorite thing about the XFCE desktop environment is how the network applet pops up these messages all the time and there's a handy dandy "don't show this again" button that does ABSOLUTELY FUCKING NOTHING
I had suspected today before on another try but just confirmed the absolute shit that it just made on my laptop.
When turning on dns over tls on systemd-resolved be aware that it will fuck over when trying to connect to public wifi spots that have the common captive portals where only protocol allowed to work before logging in is plain dns and plain http.
🚨 Another EU mass surveillance attempt. Will kill privacy on web. Must not pass. 🚨
“[A]ll web browsers distributed in Europe will be required to trust the certificate authorities and cryptographic keys selected by EU governments.
These changes radically expand the capability of EU governments to surveil their citizens by ensuring cryptographic keys under government control can be used to intercept encrypted web traffic across the EU.”
@opendna@aral Do you understand what PKI authorities do and their role in TLS interception?
If the answer to that is no, you might want to cease making a fool of yourself and read up on it first.
No one gives a shit about the keys to be trusted. The problem is the means to achieve that which are also concerned by the same legislation: the certificate authorities.
If you have a compromised root PKI certauth? You own the TLS net. That's it. You can eavesdrop and interfere with everything.
@mariusor@aral Abetting authoritarianism in self-delusion and rationalization of one's misdeeds isn't meaningfully differentiable from malice, and that's the only real alternative left.
If you’d said, even as recently as 2001, that in less than 25 years, a substantial segment of modern society would use hand held computers to spew largely random and often acrimonious comments at each other, at any hour of the day or night, no one would have taken you seriously. But here we are.
@HeavenlyPossum Basically, a cartel turning into a rentier class is the usual outcome.
Capitalism eats itself and out come the rentiers and everyone else (including other less powerful capitalists) is fucked.
Which isn't even remotely new, that's literally what the word "antitrust" comes from. Busting the trusts a few local oligopoly/cartel rail operators had built to screw everyone else over.
