One guy sat there and lied the entire time, and the other guy clearly had challenges processing all the horseshit leaving the first guy’s mouth.

You’re an amazing person, and I hope you know that. Thank you.

Hey thanks, I appreciate you. What you’re saying is all probably true, but I can’t shake this horrible feeling that I failed him. I like my dog more than I like most people I meet, and he was with me all day every day. I hope this feeling lessens with time.

I’m sick to my stomach. My healthy labrador died suddenly on Saturday. He was fine Friday afternoon, got nauseous Friday night, and I was waiting for the vet to open at 8am Saturday to get him in there. He got unresponsive and barely breathing around 6am and I rushed him to the vet ER, and he didn’t make it. The vet said he had a “torsioned spleen” or something like that.

I’ve got an absolutely soul crushing amount of guilt that I didn’t get him to the ER on Friday night. My dog trusted me to protect him and take care of him, and I completely betrayed that trust. I’m in such a place of deep sorrow that it’s impossible to explain with words. Every time I start to fall asleep, I’m suddenly wide awake trying to figure out why I decided not to act sooner.

Not sure why I’m sharing this, I guess I just had to get it off my chest.

I was in endpoint management and security until last year. I got my A+ and sec+, and couldn’t find a job. I did actually find a job, but these fucks wanted to pay me less than I’m making in business ops now. So anything bad these companies have coming to them, they absolutely deserve it.

How much concrete did they pour to build the infrastructure needed to host the games? I’d really like an analysis of that and the carbon footprint left behind by a few dozen AC units over a couple weeks.

Pornhub pulls out of Texas

Bravo to 404media for the headline.

As someone else mentioned about VPNs, by the time all this nonsense is over with, California is going to look like they have 200 million people there, if you look at web traffic.

Just curious here, because I don’t really know how this works - will they have to disclose how many shares they sold to power users prior to the IPO? I’d love for that number to be as close to zero as possible.

“Losing free labor will hurt our business”

This article reads like a complete fabrication, full of misinformation. I’ve read half a dozen other accounts of his testimony, and not one of them mentions anything in this specific version, which they would have.

I feel like you’re doing everyone a disservice when you don’t tell us the most beneficial way for us to hear your music.

The quote from EFF really highlights concerns about such a system.

I’d love to see the data gathering and protection policies in place for all the footage aggregated. Are the cameras constantly being recorded? Where is the footage stored? Who has access? How is the data (camera locations, footage, authorized users, access logs, etc) protected? How long is it saved? What happens to the data when the contract ends and isn’t renewed? What happens to all the monitoring software installed on a camera “grid” once the contract ends? Is it uninstalled automatically or just shut off and left there?

It’s troubling enough that towns as small as 25k people are blowing such a large chunk of money on hypothetical situations, but there’s zero mention or transparency into the security aspect of this entire enterprise. So many of these IoT outfits ignore data security, because they feel it’s somebody else’s problem. It’s the main reason why you don’t want household IoT devices on the same network as your trusted devices.
