I don’t mean to oversimplify, but it’s late and I’m tired. People seem to love their guns more than their children across a large swath of this country, so I guess we find out when we find out.

My first thought is that a safe full of guns won’t protect you from a hellfire missile coming through the front door. My second thought is that rural America will collectively lose their shit if Trump comes for their guns to soften up the populace for whatever follows. Then again he also might deputize a bunch of jackboots, which almost seems guaranteed at this point.

Who’s to say what happens next.

Who’s “they”?

I think it’s a bit silly to think their security will protect them indefinitely. They have to be perfect 100% of the time, where someone else only has to be lucky once.

Cool that the same court in Texas always gets to decide policy for the entire fucking country.

will eventually

You’re looking for “may eventually”. We’re not anywhere near this so using it as a current argument is rather silly.

I’m old enough now that I’m more financially secure than I ever have been before, and I still think we should tear it all down and create a more equitable system for everyone. Perhaps I’m in the minority though for people my age.

Politicians sew division, fear, and hatred knowing that this will allow them to continue fleecing everyone who works for a living. We should never forget that it’s a big club, and you ain’t in it.

Eating the rich isn’t a coup de grace, it’s the beginning.

I’m usually that person as well. BG3 was the first game in probably 8 years that hooked me on the story. If I sprinted through it, I would have probably saved like 80% of the time I spent playing it, but I enjoyed it. Maybe I’m simple, to me it felt like the decisions mattered.

You’re talking about people who love their guns more than children, so I don’t know how there’s any reasoning with that mentality.

Disenfranchisement is an invalid solution to a problem that effectively does not exist.

Pack it full of tankies first.

Indeed, Telegram is a hive of criminal content. At the moment, the platform is in the news with the illegal broadcasting of Ligue 1 matches.

This is pretty funny. The first example of crime is people posting dodgy links to football streams? They can’t be serious.

Obviously the way to combat this is to organize dozens or more people who just walk around, load up shopping carts, then leave the store without buying anything. They can pay people to put everything back.

Right. And that would stop if people quit participating on fb.

I like being up to date on what my city councillors are doing, events my local cafes host, local art exhibits, etc. Things that have tangible benefits to my community.

I’m going to say this in the nicest way possible- get up off your behind and attend council meetings in person, walk around your neighborhood, do anything except getting all your local news from Facebook. It’s literally there to show you what they want you to see, not what you want to see. Meta as a company is awful, and the algorithms they use to deliver content and advertising to you are a malignant tumor on society. Any information you get from it can easily be ascertained by walking around your neighborhood.

That whole mindset is weird to me. I’m in my mid 40s and just got hired on as a team lead for a bunch of kids who are fresh out of college. They’re exactly where I am when I started and I’m excited to share my 20 years of experience and mentor them.

They wanted to hire me on as their supervisor but I made it clear that the extra couple grand a year for that headache didn’t interest me.

I’m asking from across the pond here. How the fuck is this guy still relevant at all? Wasn’t he the face of UKIP a few years ago? And now he rises from the ashes as an MP?

Look, I know we have our own dirty laundry to deal with here, and for the sake of the rest of the planet, I sincerely hope we do. Guys like Nigel farage and Donnie douchebag need to be launched into the fucking sun. How do we make this shit end?

JD Vance is a Peter Thiel sock puppet.

Enterprise level AVs are going to sit in the kernel so they can watch for anomalies in the OS. There are better EDRs out there than Crowdstrike, and virus definitions are an outdated way of detecting anamalous behavior anyway.

I believe it’s a Crowdstrike EDR software update pushed through a windows update that caused the outage, which is definitely not a consumer solution.

Having had something to do with endpoint management in my past life, this is exactly the reason why we roll out updates gradually, and not to everyone all at once. My current employer did this the right way, and we had like 20% of the endpoints blue screen and we could actually function today while we worked through the issue.
