Takes a massive fool to think European companies are basing their data in US continent, where the ping would be >150ms, and speeds would be far slower and less manageable.

It’s actually simpler than that: It’s not in regulatory compliance. Cloud providers need to host their data centers in different regions because of geopolitical instability, including the distinct possibility of this scenario, among other localized regulatory factors. These companies may be headquartered in America but they still are at the whim of many different governments.

Iran isn’t known for it’s cybersecurity divisions. Right wing states generally aren’t good with technology. So I’m not worried about a cyber attack.

In fact, it’s tough to say what Iran’s military capacity is at all. We pelt them with drone strikes and long range missiles constantly and they seem like they can do nothing about it. We keep talking about all this enriched uranium they possess, but do they even possess the capacity to deliver the payload to our domestic soil before we thwart them?

They’ll likely go after Israel first, so we’ll soon see the extent of their armaments.

It’s actually the perfect analogy, you just can’t see it because you’re stuck in the bubble.

No. If you wanna ditch the Internet, go right ahead.

GabeN save us

I understand the premise but I would have gone with a meatless patty vegan burger loaded with veggies on a whole grain bun, with sweet potato fries prepared air fried.

You can make a traditionally unhealthy meal highly nutritious with the right know-how.

My whole system is AMD so switching to Linux was a breeze. A few days ago I installed Fedora KDE Plasma because I genuinely enjoyed the look and feel of Windows, but I wanted it without the Microsoft part. And I have to say, no regrets. I’m getting everything done without the BS, and all my games work just fine. It did need some very weird tinkering to set it up properly, and I made ChatGPT work overtime to feed me answers. Nobody would have to put in the amount of effort I did though, and if it wasn’t for my niche problems, everything would have been handled without a hitch. The terminal still scares me but I’ve learned several tricks.

That’s when a group of underground hackers start recruiting random people off the street like Granny and generic construction worker 12, and take the fight back to them!

…right?

My superpower is pain

sleep.

So dreamy 🤤

Caused by gunk in the charge port. It naturally accrues over time. Local repair stores will have the specialized tools to fix it.

Edit: people who are saying toothpicks havent actually done the job properly before, I’m willing to bet. Toothpicks don’t fit properly in a USB-C port, and can barely get inside a lightning port. Not to mention that if it breaks, you’re fucked and have to go to a repair shop anyway.

I don’t think he committed enough damage. Public opinion has not shifted enough.

He’s not running because they’re going to run a puppet actor in his place. Once the new deep state actors rig the elections in battleground states, they can bait and switch him in. Scotus will allow it as a “creative interpretation” of the constitution. Everyone is fucked here.

If you feel guilty about this, you may be part of the problem

This was a really awesome read. I appreciate the work you do. This brings me back to some of the older days when k actually enjoyed checking out game journalism. Do let me know if there’s something I could do to support your work :)

Forget the handles because they all suck. The flared outer tines are a sin and the shorter tines on 1 is a war crime. I would take 3. Ergonomically it’s not terrible and I can deal.

Would rather be too left than whatever the fuck is happening on twitter.

More commonplace than you think.

Doesn’t block chaining a massive database like this also open the doors for bad actors to insert BS entries to the chain, or making illegitimate copies of the chain and redistributing them as a “genuine” copy? My understanding is that the chain may be genuine but the human readable data attached to it could be falsified, so it may be unique but it would be useless or malicious.
