Musk is underwater on Twitter loans, so he has to turn that into influence in this election. SpaceX makes a few billion a year, and they’ve burned up almost all the Artemis money without hitting any milestones from the original Starship bid proposal, but that’s nothing compared to Tesla…
Tesla, which has been looking pretty ill lately… Cybertruck, headcut reductions, the as yet undelivered Roadster, obvious BS like telling people the 30K robotaxi will generate 100K yearly, trying to get his 50B$ compensation package (5 year’s worth of payroll IIRC, and more than all profit the firm has ever generated). He should by all rights be at the center of a massive fraud case… And he might, if Tesla’s overvalued stock craters.
Not really, you can do obscure things or obscure the hosting server with reverse proxies and mixnetworks. Most cloud hosts aren’t sniffing around in your VMs/containers… But they might.
Freenet Messaging System (FMS) is a forum interface which uses the distributed key-value p2p storage of Freenet for publishing and hosting the content (which uses anonymous request forwarding similar to onion routing… and it’s now called “Hyphanet” by its founder).
There are a few other systems that operate atop Freenet, including Freemail and some other forum systems that are very much not recommended due to illegal content.
If we know Wed/Thur before noon then I’ll know around noon. If not then I have no plans this coming weekend and realistically go until next Wednesday by turning my phone off.
Even when there’s some shred of truth to claims like this, it’s never a good idea to explicitly defend a US-backed dictator. Here they’re explicitly referring the Fujimori government’s battles with Maoists who I do suspect were infiltrated by the US who was playing both sides to get fascists into power for natural resources extraction etc.
On reason I’m more than passively familiar was that I dated a woman who was taken from Peru as a baby and adopted by Americans in the 90s. She’d reconnected with her birth family and even met other adoptees from the same area and it really just seemed like they were basically kidnapped as kids.
Calling people is scary - much easier to post (I say this as someone who spends several hours on random video chat networks daily). I was baked when the last time a Dem phone banker called me and I kind of got into it with them. but I had to stop because I got the sense that if I kept reiterating the criminality of US empire more verbosely I might’ve made them cry. I assume they just have better data nowadays because I’ve only gotten texts from one random PAC this time around.
It’s all just having an in or “right time right place”, literally chance and luck lol, and the number of times and places are shrinking with automation and shit.
I didn't know anyone going in, not sure if it's helpful experience though. I wouldn't say I have any particular acumen and the experience only reaffirmed my prior socialist tendencies
I was basically obsessed with the computer as a kid. This led to me as a minor contributing to P2P software, getting involved in the operation of a torrent tracker+website, ultimately getting charged with lots of felonies which were luckily expunged at 18. But I learned infinitely more doing all of that than I did in a year and a half of uni before I left. I did computer repair in the area and then my first office job was a company with 40K employees in the country. Just migrating people’s shit from busted/failing PCs when they took PTO or the device had become unusable. I buddied up to the ancient infosec team who would come around if they needed to grab/image hard drives for investigations/legal holds. I spent some down time at work on one of their big projects, that involved 20 years of asset->employee relationship history that wasn’t of super high quality. I think they were originally trying to figure out how to do it with Excel. I moved from infosec to data engineering/legacy migration consulting off that experience and the referrals at that org.
damn this shit is still unsolved? I remember it being covered alongside some other seemingly localized ailments during/as part of a spree of “is this the next global pandemic” type reporting
A place I work on data stuff continuously shoots themselves in the foot by not fixing things despite being in a pretty critical industry where the things their software fails to do would logically imperil the entire business. But by all means convert the 10 year old sign-in flow to a react app…
