Does “it broke containment” mean it didn’t have permissions to anything and still managed to delete all the files it could find?

If they haven’t figures out how to weaponize incompetence yet, then they’re…in…fuck then they’re incompetent at that, too. Jesus Fucking Christ.

I looked over this EO, and it’s not surprising but is disappointing how this is being called “Trump bans mail-in voting!!!” when it very much does not.

Beyond the fact that it’s 100% unconstitutional (Article ONE, Section 4, friends), it demands the creation of lists and lists and lists and USPS managing some lists and all that within 90 days of a Federal election, then everyone gets their mail-in ballot mailed to them at their address of record so they can mail it back. Which is hilarious - what aged Boomer retirement homes full of GOP voters are going to be this organized?

It’s stupid^stupid but all it really tries to prevent people from going to get a last-minute mail in ballot. So if you don’t know where you’ll be 90 days before the election, you’re going in person or not voting at all - IF your state follows this clearly not legal EO. So some hard-red states with nothing to lose will do this and absorb the fallout and then quietly ignore this once it gets problematic, while swing states will likely have voting rights activists that help people do this 90 days early.

This follows some of the stickier GOP conspiracies about boxes of mail-in ballots showing up during the counting process in places they lost and have feels about. So this is MAGA theater at best, just like the EO that undoes the 14th Amendment. Courts can invalidate this easily.

Realistically, it’s likely that someone with money was denied access, and used their money to hire lobbyists to make this a political problem.

“We called ourselves the MOD Squad, short for Merchants of Death.”

Looks like Alcohol, tobacco, and firearms have a whole new set of friends.

Oh no, it was very specific and hard to cram all the words in to the time. Typical Sora is that it’s either screaming or long pauses.

It was used almost exclusively for slop and slop-based ads or videos that shouldn’t be slop. I was on there yesterday and some account had 2 videos of a woman in front of a plain wall talking for 15 seconds about tax implications for investments. A real human could have filed it with an iphone in 3 minutes.

But now that’s Google and Grok’s problems, I guess.

until their maker gets an exemption

Ah, yes, how to ask for a bribe 101.

Reddit CEO: “What? We can’t sell user data on our increasingly punitive and terrible site because the bots keep fucking up the models trained on that data? Hold my beer…”

It has to be processed to remove the junk, which also sterilizes it. Which takes energy and time, and it USED to be more cost effective for a plant in a place where LNG comes from to pull nitrogen from the air to make fertilizer.

We already have plenty of solid sewerage waste, and even agricultural waste from cows we should be reusing.

Glad someone is!

As it’s processed, it has to have pfas, microplastics, and heavy metals removed. That also sterilizes it.

It’s sort of bonkers that sewerage treatment plants do create fertilizer as well. It just has to get from the treatment plants to the plant plants.

Also, most fertilizer being shipped around the world is just nitrogen taken from the air, which is an energy intensive process. Hence, the use of LPG.

Take the money and tell them to fuck off.

That’s not how integrity works. The stink of it would always follow them. Remove doubt by being a better human.

“Brand denies wrongdoing”

Of course. “Use is consent to the user agreement.”

They could get you to swear eternal fealty to Lord Xenu, Alien God of the Universe in the user agreement that you consent to by connecting the TV to the internet.

It’s textbook rent-seeking behavior. They discount the TV $201 to undercut someone else, and make up the difference selling the ads over the life of the TV.

This is how SO many things work, it’s only surprising that it’s taken this long. If you watch YT on this fancy TV, you’re getting the same thing.

No, they saw that comment and YT went and did something that fucked invidious today.

Time to donate to Invidious I guess.

I am worried that by allowing random users to surf using my network to prevent surveillance, someone will use my address to do malicious things, and I will get into legal consequences.

Yeah. That’s not a hidden risk, that’s an up-front risk you accept by using the extension. You may want to not let it keep running while the browser is closed, which would reduce how long the connection lets others use your IP.

All extensions make a fingerprint more identifiable. This is usually only used with Tor if a Tor connection is blocked, so if you’re just using this on Chrome or stock FF, yes, it will be very unique.

You’re having valid thoughts - but what are you trying to do? Why not just use a VPN?

You should check your browser fingerprint first. Anything privacy-focused likely already reports your timezone as UTC. I believe that Mullvad, LibreWolf, and Brave all do that.

And it’s not unnecessary at all. In fact, I’ve had to set my time zone to other countries where my VPN is set in order to use some sites, and set streaming device time zones to the US to not get dinged as using a VPN. This isn’t unreasonable at all.
