Looks like road rage & attempted assault, license suspension at a minimum. Should be license revocation, considering he’s an in uniformed federal officer.

Just give them sensibly labels and tags when making them so they are findable and usable. Don’t fret over organization beyond that, it won’t improve your quality of life, go for a walk or something instead.

Well, I grew up with knowledge of cable pirating in apartment complexes, VHS recording of retals to share or rewatch or watch later, and tape and CD sharing and mixing…

So as far as Im aware pirating was always a easy, viable, and economically savvy choice.

I did explore Netflix for a brief time 15 years ago, but the quality of their service degraded heavily, and I still pirated alongside my Netflix membership, as their content was always limited. And I shared my member ship with others, then later occasionally used a membership that was shared with me, until Netflix broke that system.

Courage, or ego, depending on varous complex genetic factors.

I’ve heen casually riding at 16mph on single gear bikes since I was a teen.

Have the people deciding the speed limit ever riden a bike?

Gonna go seed some roms.

When I got here a Michael said it was The Good Place, but I’m beginning to think he lied?

Private DNS service.

Jerry rig door sensor.

Probably against the rules, but I’d do it anyway.

Ya know, some people actually only get on social media for curated news, to have actual conversations with other humans, or to share or seek advice about specific topics.

I spend most my time in tech, old home remodel, and local/hometown forums.

She stole my cat.

Well, it looks fine for web browsing.

Specs sure read like my 2010 PC. If that works for ya, cool … I ain’t even looking at the price though. I’d just as soon plug in my 2004 laptop that’s still running fine on XP & an old version of Ubuntu.

Interesting, but there’s no evidence they are nazi themselves, just that they intentionally disregard whether any of their partners are nazis, and only concern themselves with whether or not any partnership furthers their goal of promoting open source tech.

So their focus is just limited and immature.

They themselves can still do a lot of good, orgs don’t need to be perfect, but I too would expect them to remove support for extremist led project when made aware, as to ensure they weren’t inadvertently supporting extremist views and actions. But I also can’t see punishing them for being politically or socially stupid while otherwise being very tech savvy.

Like we’ve never met a socially awkward tech savvy person before?

The world is mostly a bunch of grey areas: at this point I disapprove of a couple of their actions, but I won’t boycott them outright for their error.

If they started flying nazi flags themselves, well, then, I suppose things would be a bit different.

"The name “Zoox” is a reference to Zooxanthellae, a marine organism that, like the Zoox robotaxi, depends on renewable energy and is able to maintain a symbiotic relationship with organisms in its surrounding habitat.“

Actually kinda cool, but appropriately dumbed down to be usable in modern coversation, “hold on a sec, my Zoox just pulled up.”

Everything everyone today says or thinks is plagiarized… Move along already, it don’t matter none. What does matter is how it, whatever it is, either benefits society or hurts it.

Fun read. Suprised how much of the codespeak I understood. I’ve run linux here or there, and I used to do some hackery decades ago. I’m no modern botnet runner, but it seems things haven’t changed all too much.

Funny, the statute $2500 should be for the circumvention act, which was likely singular, not per file obtained during or as a result of the act. And the $150k is ridiculous in and of itself, even if for all files obtained. What a strange world we live in.

Spotify built a system of control in order to profit a few at a cost to many, perhaps everyone else.

Someone broke that system in order to benefit many, possibly at the cost of some of their ability to profit from their system of control–if they didn’t lose customers, or prospective customers, they didn’t experience any financial loss, or a loss in their ability to maintain their system of control (which is still very much in place and working).

Either way, nobody was hurt.

But the person who acted selflessly to benefit of society in general is punished.

Because… We, as a society, celebrate and work effortlessly to maintain complex systems of abuse in order to satisfy our greed or the greed of others. All despite being taught in school not to lie to and bully each other, and to share with and care for each other.

As a species: We are bat shit fucking crazy!

Naw, basically all major players changed their recipies over the last couple years. They are double the price, but have less chocolate, and more palm oil and other BS.

Stick with artisan chocolate, or, if you can, figure out which name brand chocolates haven’t changed their schtick yet. I think snickers are still the same, but don’t hold it against me if they aren’t.

99% of the internet is trash. Pages bouncing all over while loading, constant cookie or login popups (even with various blockers), links not connecting, old long outdated content being pushed to the front of searches, junk AI slop non-answers articles or marketing lists about a problem vs actual detailed answers…

Then there are all the various billing systems for various marketplaces, that all wanna require memberships for one time sales, before they tell you the shipping cost.

And so so much more.

It’s all heavily dysfunctional and lame and not user friendly at all anymore.

Same work same pay, nothing else should matter–not even length at that employer, as raises should correlate strictly to inflation.
