“Trump regime with more authoritarian-style controls”

Has sheen been asleep for the last 4 years?

I guess destroying 40% of black-owned businesses in addition to shut g down all sorts of things without actual authority isn’t authoritarianism?

The irony of these pejoratives constantly being lobbed at Conservatives while leftists are actually currently doing these things would be laughable if it weren’t so dangerous.

Blah blah blah blah

I’d say it’s a failure of the people to listen or pay attention.

They say this every flight, sometimes mid-flight when they know they’re approaching turbulence.

Wow.

That’s crazy, since every flight I’ve ever taken (many, I flew for work for a decade), they state this.

They sometimes even re-state it during the flight.

Imagine using a custom, bloated mess that most vendors put on devices, with garbage that runs in the background that can’t be disabled or removed without breaking something.

I quoted the word “Cracker”.

Nice racism there, guess that’s OK for OP, but not for me to call out.

Pixel is hard to beat. You can get a 5 for about $170. Run Lineage, DivestOS, or Graphene.

I use an instance from http://searx.space almost exclusively.

Try http://searx.space

They have meta engines that search instances of searx

Please let me be on his jury.

I said, not guilty!

Well, if you can’t be bothered to ensure file names mean something, then you get to enjoy the results.

In the Real World®, sometimes files get shared and traded around, and conversations happen about them, and you need to be able to quickly verify you’re looking at the same doc.

We can’t all be connected to the same version control system.

Use date/time in your file name,using GMT:

Metrics of Sales 2024-05-22_14-29.docx

Very unlikely to have 2 docs with the same down-to-the-minute time stamp in the name.

And the damn title is is “molé”, with zero molé in the diagram!!!

“Man’s search for meaning”

When one focuses on the meaningless, of course there’s no meaning.

Life is… It’s up to us as individuals to find our own meaning.

A primal one throughout history is family. The older I get, the more meaningful I find it to help family/friends, rather than focus on my own issues. It really helps us move beyond our own barriers and mundane concerns.

If I can pass on something of real meaning and value to my nieces and nephews, then I’ll have accomplished something significant. It’s the best one can hope for, and if we were all so fortunate to do the same, the difference it would make for mankind would be immeasurable.

Not a singular great hero, just millions of us doing seemingly small, but significant things.

Have you heard of capital letters and punctuation?

That’s too hard to read.

Threat modeling is hard.

Just like anything, that beginning step to assess where you are, and where you want to go, is critical.

Frankly my threat model is way too ambiguous…and I’m trying. I can’t imagine trying to convince non-tech folks they need a threat model assessment and then walk them through it, design a plan to improve their security/privacy.

Hmm, well, sounds like I just described a consultancy.

“near total blackout”?

I do not think that word means what you think it means.

It’s on the front page of everything.
