It’s one of the reasons Tyranny is such a good game. You start out as a bad guy in an evil system. You can try to do good, but you never really succeed because you’re trapped in an evil system.

Just because you have admin rights doesn’t mean the process you’ve invoked does. Unless you specifically elevate it or the process asks to elevate, it’ll run unprivileged.

And it’s not even the first of its type. I had a 1st gen Phillips Expanium that I got back in 2000.

Given how well the Minecraft and FNAF movies did, it’s almost guaranteed to happen.

I wish that was the only problem with the Internet. I don’t think many people realized it would revive fascism and lead to the death of democracy.

“Tear it all apart” is only aimed at Western democracies. The then is that the authoritarian “communist” countries invade and subjugate you.

That 1% number is a bit misleading. Federal funding isn’t paid to NPR directly and instead goes to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. The CPB gives money to non-profit radio/tv stations and those stations pay NPR, PRI, APM, etc for content. Without the CPB, tons of radio stations, mostly rural, couldn’t afford to exist and wouldn’t be paying NPR anything.

Authoritarians are by definition not part of the left. Tankies are fascists with a red coat of paint.

Because it’s essentially free and hooks into the existing MS tools for data retention, data loss prevention, security monitoring, etc.

And traditional LCDs with a backlight use more power for darkness. The LCD is transparent by default and turns opaque/black when a voltage is applied.

The problem is it takes time to identify them and kick them out. At a large scale, there will be a constant churn of poorly managed and malicious instances getting access to the network and then not getting booted until weeks or months later.

The problem is the federated nature gives a limited view of user behavior to everyone except the home instance, which means identifying spammers, bots and influence ops and effectively banning them is much harder, assuming the mostly volunteer admins even have the time and desire to do so. Federation also introduces the possibility of malicious instance owners.

Lemmy’s design is fundamentally unable to deal with bad actors. The only reason it’s tolerable now is that it’s too small to be worth their time. It would completely go to shit if it ever got huge.

You gotta hide it a little bit. That’s why mine is labeled “notPorn”.

On the other hand, learning hacking itself is easier than ever. It’s turned legitimate under the guise of penetration testing.

The Holodomor happened years after Russia achieved their so-called “peace”. The suffering and death in Ukraine will only increase under Russian subjugation. The only way to put an end to it is for Russia to lose and preferably Putin be brought in front of the Hague and publicly hanged for his crimes against humanity.

What they’re defending against is being raped, murdered, starved and having their children stolen by Russia. All you Tankies always try to distract from and ignore the suffering and mountain of corpses left in Russia’s wake. You don’t get to ignore the 300 thousand children stolen by Russia or the 5 million killed in the Holodomor.

Ukraine desperately wants those bombs. They remember what it was like living under Russian imperialist rule. They remember that Russia genocided 10% of their population the last time they were conquered.

No.

Same. People need to stop buying from giant corporations. Everything they sell is cheap shit sold at a ridiculous price now because investors expect a 30% profit margin.
