Can someone help me? Is Mr WordPress just snorting a shitton of coke?

asks a question

Fuck off I don’t care

Well which is it? Seems like a pretty important distinction. Also I did click and it went to beehaw.

Last I checked beehaw is not Nexus mods idiot. Next time, check yo self before you wreck yoself

No actually you don’t. You posted a fucking useless link to a different instance saying the exact same damn thing that’s been said in this article and comment thread.

The person below you is posting a proven method of forcing change in corporations called “voting with your wallet”.

If you want to act like you’re being helpful then actually help instead of wasting everyone’s time and energy.

Heeey I am also a libertarian, I just tend towards left libertarian. Back to the point of discussion, I find it difficult to ha e a meaningful conversation with the tankies or in general anyone from lemmy.ml . The discussions tend to lack any real data and feel entirely vibe based OR it’s apologist bullshit for Russia.

Like it’s cool if you like communism and have a philosophy based around why you think it’ll help humanity. I can politely disagree but still listen and discuss. It’s quite another to just be a complete dipshit and say “Ukraine had the invasion coming” (actual quote I’ve seen).

It’s what Ive come to expect from the lemmy.ml instance and I finally blocked the entire instance.

Are you developing your opinions based on vibes or have you actually audited their software yourself (you are free to do so both client and federation server code)?

If you audited it, have you produced an actual report with metrics and points of reference for your data points?

Not sure which country you live in, but renter’s insurance covered a stolen item for me when I was renting. Worth a check if you have a similar thing.

I would pay money to keep Firefox foss for other people who can’t afford to do so.

She’s not wrong though

Wrong. Gimme a black woman to vote for and I’ll do it.

I’m pissed because we pissed away the emcumbant advantage but what’s done is done, here’s hoping we get to celebrate the first female president instead of orange Hitler.

Homie, I work in IT. I graduated from college with a degree in network security. So please consider that experience as your read my response.

This is a problem caused by companies putting in the minimum of effort to secure their systems and no effort to have a valid server back up strategy.

I’ll try and keep things high level since I don’t know if you’re in the field or not but you sound like you aren’t. In short, a driver (something low level used for an operating system to interact with a piece of hardware usually) got released which was full of bunk data. That caused a blue screen of death. This is a fixable situation you need to reboot your computer into a mode called “safe mode” and delete the bunk driver.

That’s not the problem though, the problem is when you use another piece of security software called bitlocker to enceypt your enterprise equipment AND servers. You can’t reboot into safe mode without a decryption key which most companies store on a piece of server software (called active directory) on a server … which is also using both crowdstrike and bitlocker.

Your data is inaccessible and the best option is to restore from a backup which as we’re seeing, few people have.

This isn’t a cyber attack. This is human incompetence and business greed.

I have contact with someone trying to float the idea because she doesn’t understand tech.

To her, it’s because it’s the biggest IT outage ever and it happened 6 days after the failure to assassinate Trump.

Can confirm, just wish other people around the fediverse would realize you can adore and speak out against Israel without being antisemitic. To clarify I mean that can you speak out against genocide AND that you don’t have to say shit like “fuck the Jews”.

Been fighting that bullshit since Israeli Trump started his genocide.

That’s a fair question.

In consideration, take the Jim Crow laws from the USA. These laws enforced racial segregation and allowed for abject racism and abhorrent conditions/treatment of black people. In short, they supported racism.

Now one could say “but the people were the ones to carry it out” which sure, but then we might as well start asking ourselves how much government really matters and other philosophical questions. I don’t think the people are innocent, but to focus on your question, that’s an example of how political policy and laws can support things. The laws enable the legal environment, the people then carry it out.

Gotcha gotcha

People are happy and enjoy eating them so I guess I’m doing it right. How are you making yours?

That’s possible, the statement is a bit ambiguous as to which part they are "whomp whomp"ing to.

Not sure if you mean me by “person you’re replying to” or someone else. I believe it’s someone else but it’s a little bit of a confusing sentence.

Either way, it’s been a fun couple of months since this bullshit started. With all kinds of dumb takes and arguments. It’s enough to make someone say “oyvey”

Holy fuck.

Zionism (the political policy supporting the genocide) is not Judaism. How would I know? I’m a Jew and I abhore the Palestinian genocide. Nothing in the Jewish religion supports what is going on nor does anything in our religion say “go be ZIONISTS and kill people”.
