as Mariah Carey put it, "its tiiiiiiime" :D

another sex crime charge has hit the republican party 😞

also, obligatory "not a trans person"

this admin hating on trans women and banning them from competing in sports while entirely overlooking trans men on testosterone who, given the legislative focus on transfem people, could still compete in women's sports (theoretically) while on testosterone underscores how fucking little this admin knows about how this actually works scientifically.

after all why wouldn't "women pretending to be men" be taking testosterone and competing and dominating in sports if that's what this is all about?

The stock got cheaper Thursday morning after his appearance

Hell yeah Gizmodo, go get 'em, we need more of this petty hating.

I am trans but still have a bigger dick than Orbán

this is modern poetry tbh, stealing this for my local groups

I have no proof, this is anecdotal, but I suspect they used a forensic analysis tool like Cellebrite, GreyKey, or Magnet Axiom to extract all the device data and search it, which makes it a cakewalk to filter for keywords, images, files, and the like. cops use this shit all the time, as do their terrorist friends all around the world.

and not just education that makes sense.

this is a great way to put it. I grew up isolated from culture, from the world, and from the personality, curiosity and interests that kind of exposure can give - and now that I'm knee deep in adulting, I don't know how I would go about learning more about culture and humanity, especially since I'm stuck working full time to keep the lights on (and pay my student loans).

If I felt that I could do a bachelor's in gender studies or social sciences, I would. I wouldn't expect it to make me rich, and I'm already a network engineer and systems geek, so that pays the bills anyway - but I'd do it because I think that's something that would make me a more balanced person, and that would make my work better as a result.

same, my lifetime license is paying off right about now tbh

agree 100%, I just find what limited joy I can in pointing out that this is likely bullshit and at best a con. I also get a kick out of shitting on Musk for pretending to know what he's talking about when it comes to tech :)

depending on how badly Starlink fucks up the deployment, this could actually make the performance worse especially if airtime and spectrum are limited which I would assume would be the case. Elon throwing APs every which way isn't likely to make that any better.

this is like getting a flat tire on your handcart and buying a G Wagon with no wheels to fix it.

this was nothing that some Ethernet and some APs couldn't fix. and as for the cellular issues, you're literally the White House. Throw up a femtocell, you already have fiber for backhaul.

this is such fucking nonsense. Starlink is fixing precisely none of this.

I'm barely an engineer but I can guarantee you that anyone with the ability to build a single actual functional server could run stuff better than these clowns. they fucked up so badly that they exposed a open mail relay to the entire fucking NOAA. I'm a dumb removed but that is beyond belief, if I did anything nearly as reckless as that on a corp network I'd be in handcuffs before the top of the hour.

this isn't just risky - this is begging to be plundered.
