this must have been embedded in my subconscious

This is sticking your dick in a toaster levels of stupid

Ooooooooooooooooooh shiiiiiiiiiiit that’s not good

Like, for anybody who already understands that everything to do with computers talking to each other is basically held together with spit and tape, they’re defunding the tape

CVE is THE definitive central source for “fix this potential hack now plz”–at least for things the US thought was too dangerous to keep secret for their own sneaky purposes. Oldheads may remember getting alerts from CERT.

I assume, being a public-facing service, that it wasn’t profitable and therefore it’s inefficient.

Like, EU CVD/CSIRT will undoubtedly step in to close that gap, but burning this is insane.

I’d be a lot more patient helping grandma along if I was gonna get ten thousand dollars out of it

Damn, modelo’s pretty tasty.

Looks like the media is really glossing over their own role in consent manufacturing

I am going to disengage at this point.

that’s a lot of text for someone who’s wrong. neoliberal governments worship their leaders, capitalism captures the state apparatus, and minorities are violently suppressed. Fascism.

Hey look, buddy. I’m an engineer, that means I solve problems.

Not problems like “What is beauty?”, 'cause that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of !philosophy@hexbear.net.

This is also why it is so weird and unnecessary to me when people just say that liberal democracy is the same thing as fascism. The fact that two things are linked or that one has tendencies that lead it to transform into, produce, be replaced by the other does not mean that they’re the same. Actually it implies the opposite, otherwise there would be no transformation to begin with.

Would you prefer “liberal democracy nearly inevitably leads to fascism”? Stage 1 cancer and stage 4 cancer are both cancer.
