Potatos_are_not_friends@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Sanders: Supreme Court Is “Out of Control” and Must Be Reformed85·10 months agoThat’s understandable since they are the most popular.
My city’s senator called it out on the news and it’s not getting any attention from mainstream media.
And remember that it’s only been about 48 hours since Biden can legally assassinate anybody so right now, the news is kinda uncertain how to play this out.
Potatos_are_not_friends@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•AI-powered network of Russia-based websites masquerading as local American newspapers is pumping out fake stories targeting the US election, investigation findsEnglish252·10 months agoNah. Our stupid ass government only recently started hiring hackers who smoke weed. But even then, there’s too much stupid red tape.
“Both the NSA and the DOD have a ton of talented hackers, yet when it comes to actually performing disruptive cyber operations, for some reason we as a country are just frozen and scared,” Caceres says. “And that needs to change.”
He points to ransomware actors, mostly based in Russia, who extracted more than a billion dollars of extortion fees from victim companies in 2023 while crippling hospitals and government agencies. North Korea–affiliated hackers, meanwhile, stole another $1 billion in cryptocurrency last year, funneling profits into the coffers of the Kim regime. All of that hacking against the West, he argues, has been carried out with relative impunity. “We sit there while they hack us,” Caceres says.

And also
It also doesn’t help that the Republican Party have outright praised Russia, which means they’re already inside.

Steam did it well enough. I was buying cheap games for years. I could get a kick ass GOTY game for like $5 while GameStop was still selling it used on consoles for $20.

Yep.
I lost my trust 5 years ago during Trump. Biden was just slowly rebuilding that trust. But it’s still gone.

If you ever work tech support even at a basic level, you’ll see. It’s not even boomers or genZ. I helped a grown ass human who was my age at 40yo how to install a Firefox extension.

I was still using teamviewer up until 2020 to connect to my desktop from my laptop. It’s so handy.
Fortunately it was when I started learning about open-source solutions

And surprisingly, after a year, it was pretty smooth.
Push your IT folks to do the same everybody. The money saved is significant. And the learning curve is annoying, but not as annoying as managing Windows.

But unfortunately, Google’s superpower of making really cool things and then killing it off continues to exist.

“Xiong began to attempt to control the conversation and began talking about his disapproval for government due to the sex abuse of children, some of which that has occurred by President Biden,” investigators wrote.
MAGA trump supporters who are PoC or a minority always makes me confused. They really aren’t realizing these rallies, they’re the butt of the joke, being uncle ruckus.

Journalist: “How will you fight rising property crime?”
Trump: (incoherent rambling that ends with how sexy Ivanka is)
By the time Biden starts talking, we’d be stunned by whatever the hell Trump was saying to focus.
