I’ll take X company cheaped out, bought from unreliable, dog shit materials provider in country Y (who either purposely or neglectfully knew what they were doing, as a manufacturer), and now has a scape goat despite the root of the issue for 5000 please.

Let’s be clear - this was a disgusting move on behalf of the US. Something that happened under Drumpf, specifically pushed by the military state, and against actual diplomats wishes.

This, yet again, was stupidity pushed by the toxic burning pit of tires that is the military in the US. Backed by a moron Fascist, that was shutdown when Biden came into office (eventually, after it worked for the most part and became less relevant - go figure. Classic opportunistic, ‘we’re the good guy’ democrats)

This government is rotten and decaying and its death is expedited by war-hungry militaries. As it appears to be, across the world and nations. We have a human problem on our hands and no amount of “we’re the good guys” will ever solve it. Everyone is complicit in this shit and it’s time we fucking own up to our failures and struggles to actually solve the root of our problems. Enough is enough.

Can’t agree with you any more, we’re on the same page here

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Would you mind sharing some good alternatives that aren’t proprietary junk?

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

I like your attitude!

stevedidwhat_infosec OP ,

So when you hover over an item usually, it shows on the bottom left/right what the link is

But in this case (edge and chrome) I see the link actively changing and like resolving or something of the sorts. Very odd. I don’t normally use these two put it was the only way I could see the sponsored links (thanks Firefox!)

Normally I’d expect just a static “this link here, goes here” rather than it changing in real time like this. Wondering if it’s normal chrome/chromium behavior or if this is an exploitation of google search functionality stemming from the google search source code leaks from earlier last week or the week prior.

Very interesting stuff.

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Gotta start at some point!

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Probably could’ve worded this better.

Maybe a “What have you all setup to remove these features, how are you running windows, etc “

Best to lead with pure curiosity and questions than to lead with assumptions. We don’t know what we don’t know, and that also means that the depth of what we don’t know could be surprisingly deep.

Stay curious!

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Do you have an easier time catching flies with vinegar or with honey?

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

We can tell. Good luck with 0 people respecting you out there kid

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Imagine making a claim like this and being so lazy that you couldn’t even throw it into virus total to confirm your hypothesis

Stop making wild ass assumptions and trying to peddle it as truth. It makes you look bad

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

And the creators of lemmy (same dudes lemmy.ml) have done things like this. Specifically the insertion of automatic word filters IIRC:

github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/622

Here you can see all the glory of these devs.

Don’t forget, there’s lots of other federated media options besides lemmy.

Frankly my time around lemmy.ml has been pretty off putting to the service as a whole. I don’t see how endless user growth is sustainable for any volunteer moderation team either.

Don’t forget, you all can go look through the lemmy.ml mod log at any time and view the bullshit that goes on over there.

Here’s a link: lemmy.ml/modlog

They do the shit constantly and dudes profile pic on git hub is still Fidel Castro

But go off defending these people I guess lol

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Imagine trying to insult someone by calling them a liberal lmfao.

Who remembers when China was doing live organ farming on people?

Pepperidge farm fucking remembers.

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

But what we’re saying is that there’s a difference between a mistake/a hot-headed take and a pattern of abuse.

Patterns of abuse need to be taken seriously and no amount of “we’re all human” will mend that, until they themselves choose reform. Plain and simple.

People who choose not to agree to the social contract of tolerance, do not need to be treated with tolerance. Period

stevedidwhat_infosec , (edited )

Really? Because I remember reading from the UN that this was taking place in the uyghur camps?

Edit: actually it’s both. So…

…house.gov/…/forced-organ-harvesting-china-examin…

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Don’t forget the Uyghurs! Your name calling has no effect against me and is frankly childish when you could’ve taken the opportunity to properly educate.

Instead you chose to call names. lol. Very telling.

There is no war in ba sing se ig

…house.gov/…/forced-organ-harvesting-china-examin…

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Talk about over simplification of a problem lmao

stevedidwhat_infosec , (edited )

True, however that doesn’t necessarily constitute falsehood in what they’re claiming.

The UN also did work on this, as did Canada and some investigative reporters in Europe.

China has lots of adversaries. Mainly anybody in the west, and they dominate any of their other Allies which makes them a de facto leader and would make criticism from anyone else pretty tough.

Edit: oh and in 2015 China announced that they wouldn’t do forced organ transplants on prisoners anymore - so they were most definitely participating in this disgusting practice.

100%

I’m critical of every ruling body, regardless of where I reside. There’s something to be said about having power over millions of people and how humans deal with that.

I’m especially critical of governments that are known to run PsyOps, disinformation campaigns, and known histories of abuse (US, China, Russia, Israel, Iran, North Korea, etc). Ultimately, the devil you know is better than the others, but we’re still working with devils

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Cheap TLDs should always be a red flag imo

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Red flags aren’t guaranteed to be a problem, they should just weigh heavier on your assessment of risk

Discord: Have you lost access to your email? no worries, just regain access to it! (lemmy.world)

I would have expected them to ask me to message them, in order to resolve the issue of not having access to my old email. Instead, they assume that I still have access to it, by simply contacting my email provider!...

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Discord: our platform is being abused to peddle malware via c2 channels, file repositories, etc. So to combat this problem, we’re going to ruin the customer experience!

Texas professors want to use abortion ban to punish students for "consensual sexual intercourse" (www.salon.com)

“Along with their anger about abortion, they grouse about not being allowed to punish students “for being homosexual or transgender.” They also argue they should be able to penalize teaching assistants for “cross-dressing,” by which they appear to mean allowing trans women to wear skirts.”

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Let’s keep dismantling the education system and see if this fixes things

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Code is more or less deterministic, communicating with other humans using something like the English language - much harder.

Lots of communication is open ended and up to interpretation especially with things like incorrect grammar usage and/or slang

Take your time, get it as close to right as you can the first go around

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Please don’t fucking touch anything to do work Linux Musk. Please.

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Par for the course

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Ding ding ding we have a winner

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

LOCK HIM UP

stevedidwhat_infosec , (edited )

34 felonies?

Good one. There will be riots in the fucking streets lmao

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

34*** I’ll correct

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

If you’re that dedicated to proving a point, I’m concerned for you.

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Either way man, going back to a post from 3+ years ago isn’t exactly ‘normal’ imo haha

Not everything is an attack

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Good steps, hope they would do the same for the any other company or government, the US included.

We should know about these abuse cases and study them if we’re ever to get a leash and collar around AI before disaster can occur.

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Mmm… well it does matter from the context that actual violence is down. When we’re talking about violent crimes.

It doesn’t matter when talking about this other problem, that the media is essentially a constitutionally protected capitalism and greed factory.

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Are you implying that the majority of people don’t look at facts and statistics?

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Do you have any evidence or data to support this conclusion, or are you participating in the behavior?

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Yes. Because not everything that appears intuitive, is fact. This is how disinformation is spread. It is a vulnerability in the human psychology.

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Perhaps to reiterate that he’s bringing value to the US for the upcoming election?

Perhaps to cover all the bases, for those that don’t look at fact/evidence (meaning not necessarily a majority of people not looking at fact)

I mean the possibilities are endless, i feel like you’re taking a pretty narrow view to this subject

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

That wasn’t the topic of discussion. You implied that a majority of people don’t research their views without anything other than anecdotal evidence

You tried to pivot to this other topic, I did not follow it.

I can agree with “at least some people do not properly vet and research their views” but I cannot subscribe to “most”

Make sense?

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

infosec.pub/comment/9572046

I specifically mention this point and you make zero effort to correct or modify what you’re saying so I’m left to believe that it is at least partially aligned with what you’re saying.

Feel free to take the easy way out and argue pedantics - our conversation was pretty short so if you actually looked through the convo, I suspect you ignored this point or are purposefully playing on this point to push yourself out of the waters a la pedantic argument.

Think this conversation is spent now. Thanks.

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

Came here to look for this comment - bad science communication is the reigning supreme it would seem these days

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

You’re comparing apples to oranges here. The circumstances have changed since 2020 and to ignore 4 years of hearings, charges, additional threats (much less vague now) and libertarian distain for trump is significantly different from what it was when he ran in 2016, and when he had that momentum in 2020 (Covid year, don’t forget)

Donald Trump is going to bite the curb this election and I’ll bet you a bunch of people still vote for RFK.

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

I agree with your final paragraph. He isn’t a perfect candidate.

But I don’t think there will ever be a perfect candidate and when they’re running against a literal fascist dictator, I know who I will vote for. I’ve said this before but a primarily 2-party system is dangerously naïve. Simplifying the insanely complex reality that is the US into 2 options is stupid. Not to mention how much it alienates minorities (of all types not just race, religion, sex)

How are we to represent down to the minority level via a popular-vote. It doesn’t make sense to me.

stevedidwhat_infosec ,

And now he’s been charged with 30+ felonies.
