The world needs to stop using “deported” to describe these kids.

They were kidnapped. They were not “deported,” because you can’t be deported to a country you weren’t previously a citizen of. This poor kid was stolen from his home, sent to a shithole, denied the ability to go home, and eventually decided life wasn’t worth it.

Kidnapped. Use the right word, everyone.

New ad campaign:

“You survived COVID, even though the liberals tried to get you to vaccinate. You haven’t vaccinated to this day because you have an immune system. You’re conservative and strong. So when the liberals try again with bird flu, monkey pox, or whatever animal disease they come up with next, just tell them, ‘No thank you.’” Make sure the video playing along with the words shows strong manly men - white, of course - with rugged good looks, wearing outdoorsy clothes, doing manly stuff. Guaranteed to convince a bunch of insecure conservative douchebags not to vaccinate. Again.

Are we going to pretend he gives a shit? He doesn’t. He got what he wanted, and he can’t be elected again (barring him fucking our systems so severely that he manages to force a third term on us). He’s going to wreck the justice system to avoid any consequences for his actions after his term, and he could very well kick the bucket while he’s in office anyway (dude’s got KFC gravy for blood).

He doesn’t care. He no longer has to. He can play his country-destroying games with impunity. He has no reason to give a single fuck what the American people want.

I wonder how the folks who voted for Trump or abstained from voting because they support Palestine feel about Israel being entirely free to engage in expansionism now?

Four decades?

Fuck. You just make me imagine President-for-life Trump surviving to 118 years old, and just making things worse and worse for the entire time.

The next thing Yoon should face is removal and arrest.

But you see, the leopards won’t eat their faces!

How so? I’ve been looking it over, and it doesn’t seem to have any of the enshittification I’ve seen all over Facebook (let alone Xitter, which is made entirely of festering anus now).

This is exactly what I was saying months ago. And it’s absolutely going to happen now. The entire region is going to plunge into chaotic war, and Putin couldn’t be happier.

Not many, but plenty use various corporate applications that are Windows-only.

It’s some kind of locked-down version of GlobalProtect that’s integrated with a TPM module to prevent machines that aren’t running our corporate image on corporate-approved laptops from being able to connect.

There’s probably some kind of workaround, but I’m lazy and it’s easier just to power up the Windows machine now and then.

I only ever use Windows on my work computer, and only when I need access to a resource that requires our Windows-only VPN.

But seriously, “just use linux” is worthless advice. Lots of people use Windows for specific applications that don’t exist in the Linux ecosystem. For example, there are no Linux applications that come close to AutoCAD, and it simply doesn’t work on Linux.

Better advice would be to get new (or newer used) hardware if possible, if you absolutely need to use Windows, since this workaround will inevitably be “corrected” by Microsoft. Then you can do whatever you like with the old hardware, such as install and learn Linux at your own pace.

They should be charged with assault and battery, like anyone else who did that would be.

Why the hell is anyone still storing actual passwords, even encrypted ones, in 2024? They should only be storing hashes and a salt that’s only retrievable on the backend.

Edit: I stand corrected. Newsweek is just doing its usual shit job of reporting. They should know better than calling hashed passwords “encrypted” passwords.

Dies Murdered

Fixed the headline.

If DAW means Digital Audio Workstation, have you tried Ardour?

That’s fucking awful. What is wrong with Florida?

That’s just freaking bonkers.

About ten minutes ago, some extreme moron walked out on the Naples pier and put a Trump flag on it. You can see it flapping in the wind. I’m now taking bets on how long it lasts there.

I’m more worried about the weird white bump on her right cheek, and the short left arm on the blurry person standing in the background boat.
