  How happy are you to know your personal data is still going to be leaked because 90% of the services handling it are using MS Backdoor OS? If it’s not going to be your bank it will be your work, if not your work, then it will be your government, and there will be no consequences because "nobody ever got fired for buying Microsoft®"™.

  Authoritarian government:

  Please install this root certificate so we can MITM all the HTTPS traffic and make sure you aren’t doing anything we wouldn’t approve. And by please we mean do it or we’ll send you to a gulag in the artic.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨EU considers calculating X fines by including revenue from Musk’s other firms⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s extensive case law in the EU about this. The interesting part in the case of Musk’s companies is that they would be pretty much shielded from X’s fines if he hadn’t used Space X’s and Tesla’s resources and personnel while trying to fix things on X/Twitter.

  Does Google care if the content is there but hidden with CSS? I don’t think you need to actually torture the users.

  Right on time for the discovery of cold fusion.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Annapurna Interactive has "splintered into two groups, both of which are now working to pick up the pieces" says new report⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  A “tiny leadership team” is not a group, it’s a rotting carcass. Executive managers aren’t famous for doing any actual work.

  The correct headline is people actually working in Annapurna Interactive packed up their stuff, leaving the parasites behind.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Also, it's over 2 1/2 hours long.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Not giving a fuck would be a valid attitude if the inaccuracies made a better movie. Judging by the reviews, it didn’t.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨subs > dubs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  If you are used to reading subtitles you can read them almost subconsciously. And you don’t need to understand the language to get things like emotion out of it. I would even go as far as saying that getting used to reading the emotions of someone that doesn’t speak the same language as you is essential to fully develop a sense of empathy.

  Making the game harder also made a smaller game last longer. If you remove the difficulty factor of lots of most old games, either by tweaking it or mastering it, then it becomes possible to beat the game in a matter of minutes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That's what she said?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Pushed with what? A jackhammer?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kind of like a politician?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s well documented that Santa exploits a veritable army of slave scouts to keep the list, and then he uses a gazillion slaves to manufacture the toys in the mother of all sweatshops. Dude just waves out of the carriage like a British monarch.

  Was any of your ancestors a particularly successful mass murderer in the middle ages and/or a recent civil war?
