Apropos of nothing, I just realized that the last time I didn’t have a job was 1989. The Soviet Union was still firmly a thing.

pauliehedron,

@jerry I was working at Subway then. Back when they cut the bread with the U cut and didn't sell soup. :blobsalute:

A year or so later, one of my customers was retiring and recommended me for her 3rd shift mainframe operator job. And so it began (3090-600S forevar!!!)

Give peace a chance!!!! Oh wait, the terrorists don't want peace, they want more dead civilians on both sides. Who would have thunk it.

Ok, here the are: the allegations against a dozen UNRWA workers and their suspected roles, triggering the cutoff of funds.

Did you know 50% of all employees have a below average ability to detect phishing emails? 🤔🧐

pauliehedron,

@jerry It's why my org has THREE separate email phishing/malware/spam filtering platforms (pre-and post scanning plus internal-internal), then an EDR and URL checker on a web proxy for links on the end point PLUS end user training. So the 50% only has to deal with 1% of the delivered emails in their inboxes.

See, it's so simple to shrink the blast radius from BEC/EAC!

pauliehedron,

@jerry I feel ya!

Ugh. I'm generally happy with roaming on , but its German MVNO partner is blocking port 995, so I can't access my mail server, and tech support is like, "If you want to report a mail problem, you must initiate a chat request from that email address." I'm stuck in circles - obviously I can't login to the Google Fi app with a non-Google address, and this isn't an email problem, it's a connectivity problem. ALL outbounds on 995 are blocked, not just to my server.

pauliehedron,

Two notable Foreign Military Sales cases, (Greece and Turkey), which have been approved by the State Department and formally notified to Congress this evening.

pauliehedron,

@Ralph058 @w7voa

Every unit produced and sold after development lowers the cost and recovers the cost of development. We should be selling more F35's since the F16 margin is way lower over its almost 50 year production.

But it's fine as I trust Greece more than Türkiye to keep tech out of RU hands. Kek.

US “extremely troubled by the allegations that twelve UNRWA employees may have been involved in the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack on Israel. The Department of State has temporarily paused additional funding for UNRWA while we review these allegations and the steps the United Nations is taking to address them.”

pauliehedron,

@w7voa "I'm shocked, SHOCKED, there are terrorists in this establishment."

pauliehedron,

@peterbrown @w7voa They already fired 18 employees in Gaza, which is pretty fast, must be overwhelming evidence of terrorists in their org to do so. :blobsalute:

The International Court of Justice is delivering their order.

The court concludes that by initial review, some of the actions and omissions by Israel in their attack on Gaza fall within the scope of the Genocide Convention, wherefore it is up to the court to rule.

It also says, it is in Israel’s obligation to ensure, it lives up to The Genocide Convention, and that South Africa was right to bring the case before the court.

The court says, Israel must prevent and punish the act of genocide,

pauliehedron,

@randahl It also says NO genocide and NO ceasefire, and mentions that Hamas MUST IMMEDIATELY RELEASE THE HOSTAGES (which no one is bringing up, WHY???).

So this ruling also gives cover to Hamas using human shields, so the terrorists' will continue to do so. Great job ICJ.

pauliehedron,

@H0W25 @randahl NO, that's just plain bullshit. There are 6 American hostages, you think the USA doesn't want them back? I WANT THEM BACK. GTFO

pauliehedron,

@H0W25 @randahl Because it's been a while since Oct 7th, and Hamas continues to fire rockets not even 10 minutes ago, continue to employ human shields, and hold hostages including a 1year old who had their birthday in a murder tunnel. And you don't reward terrorists EVER.

So sorry if I seem a little heated, to see all this support for Hamas on this platform is exhausting and rage inducing.

Have a wonderful day!

pauliehedron,

@H0W25 @randahl Thank you for being an example. :ablobcatnod:

pauliehedron,

@H0W25 @randahl Brah, you bOtHsIdEsEd this conversation. KEK and LMAO

pauliehedron, (edited )

@randahl They didn't have a finding of genocide, nor did the call for a ceasefire. All it said was be careful, they want to hear more, which Israel has been careful. None of this can happen without Hamas stopping attacks (more rockets right after this news came out) as well as continuing to oppress the Gazans who want Hamas gone.

Hamas is using the institutions of liberal democracies to ATTACK. Just like RU does with the UN. Same authoritarian playbook. South Africa and Putin are TIGHT as you know.

pauliehedron,

@randahl

If you think that, you kinda missed the whole Oct 7th thing that started this. Want to see the vids Hamas published? Hamas wants to genocide Israel, it's the first line in their charter FFS. You wouldn't be doing this with UA defending themselves against terror, why do you do it with Israel?????

pauliehedron,

@randahl They are cynically on trial, instigated by bad faith actors who want to destroy the only democracy in the region, as well as distract from all the crimes being committed by said bad actors and their allies. You're being USED. I is disappoint.

I feel like there have been more IT workers laid off in the past year than there were IT workers 10 years ago. Totally unscientific observation

pauliehedron,

@jerry Gaming is also taking a beating as well. MS is cutting 10% of their gaming divisions just as it acquired ActiBlizz.

Australia is now voting with the global majority in support of a ceasefire. Public pressure is working! Keep it up everybody

pauliehedron,

@millsjenjen AUS also paused funding to UNWRA, so that too is a win.
