I am very reluctant to use WordPress at all because I’ve heard terrible things from multiple colleagues. It looks like something that’d get problematic at some point.

Absolutely general purpose. In the most simple terms, email, password hash, and a bit of metadata

I would be very worried if this was ‘final, and now we will do it as written’ but it seems to be just another iteration.the critique is great and I just hope they listen.

I am not shocked, but i’d save disappointed for when they try to do it and noone uses it because of these reasons.

Cool! The arecibo message https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arecibo_message comes to mind with some of the designes!

This seems incredibly interesting, but the idea of a ‘general purpose syncing service’, in the way he describes it, makes my head scream’security concern’. In general the way it’s described the format is not fixed for these services so your data might as well be encrypted in any arbitrary way I think?

But knowing this wouldn’t this kind of general purpose syncing service need some way of identifying what data it is even syncing? Unless you encooperate something grand like the signal protocol (as in encrypted anonymous messaging) you d always run a security risk if the service you use for syncing is not self-controlled?

If anyone has more insight on this I’d be very interested, it seems like a very good concept.

It sounds to me like anything other than p2p local syncing with some protocol is a confidentiality no-go.

So according to this I am a determinist turned absurdist? Neat!

As someone who sees these articles, who should I not vote for? Is there some ranking for ‘most asshole-ish politician’ regarding the EU? I know every politician has somewhat dirt on them but I’d love to know what to avoid since apparently some of those turds are worse than others.

This is what I had in mind as well; If you had to how would you add a beamer to this that could use your jellyfin/plex server?

Ideally I’d want a pi or mini pc behind the beamer that I can switch on/off remotely so that part is not always on

Okay I never knew that, I would also accept tips for setting up a star trek beamer though xD

Someone who knows this please tell me what I am misunderstanding, though this is not related particularly to this article.

What is “gender affirming care”? When i hear that I am thinking of some racist dad who is forcing their son to go to some camp to get the gay ‘affirmed/corrected’ out of him or something along those lines.

I feel like I keep misreading the different definitions of what is meant where and why.

In general the article seems to be a summary of current legislative actions that are ongoing between big tech and EU. Though in the article it’s worded with the much more fitting ‘game of chicken between EU and Big Tech’ rather than something like the title, but I guess “drop dead has a better ring to it”…

I general the article has a lightly optimistic tone, which I very deeply hope holds true.

Beg? Or am I misunderstanding this?

Aahh OK so they are the IDFs responsibility and they are being purposefully neglegent, makes sense to be trialed for that.

Assuming these are unaffiliated civilians (which I am assuming here that these people are just assholes who hate Palestinians) can they be trialed for this as a war crime?

Which would also be worse than the events being unrelated. In the simplest case it’d be guilt-tripping ( you owe me!) or at worst some sort of odd blackmail.

[…]Plants vs. Zombies Jordan Adams, and Director Partnerships at EAX Matthew Angeleri.

Adams would also send female coworkers pornographic videos and even reference them in EA Slack conversations

While that seemed like an act of goodwill, Angeleri privately sexually harassed said female coworkers and even followed it up with videos of himself having lewd acts performed on himself.

Why the article can’t just state what the allegations are and at whom is just annoying, so here you go.

What confuses me a bit is the sentence just before the allegations to Angeleri:

As for Matthew Angeleri, he invited his female coworkers to stay at his home with his wife while visiting Vegas where they were given free room and lodging. While that seemed like an act of goodwill, Angeleri privately sexually harassed said female coworkers and even followed it up with videos of himself having lewd acts performed on himself.

Like… What? What is the logical connection between these two sentences? There could be months or years between those two events? How do these two relate? This reads as two completely separate events. So one could just be an act of goodwill and afterwards he decided to be a prick. Or, first the was a prick and then felt bad and offered the coworker a place to stay?

And if the two events were concurrent that makes it immensely more creepy.

This seems to be posted on this forum with that title solely for rage-bait.

She clearly just-for-fun redesigned Wikipedia as if a modern company got a hold of it. Yes of course this would drive people in this forum up a wall, but that’s just not the point. This is also not about programming at all?

Don’t go around looking for content of other creators just to take it out of context and then bash it.

This is like you watched “we made marvel r-rated” from corridor digital (https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=k5-3eujJyZE) and then post about it, being pissed how they destroyed a superhero fantasy aimed at a wide audience and children and how noone would ever want something like that.

Calling her a bad designer just because you disagree with her design decisions is just mean. This entire post just makes it seem like you are specifically looking for things to hate…

I think you accidently made a meme that is just too close to the truth to be seen as sarcastic

Anyone who thinks this is just incapable of navigating them.

I really think it’s disgusting to boldly claim this is just to protect children. Then get the proposal denied with very valid reasoning that everyone’s privacy would be compromised.

And then, a few months later, they have the exact same argument again with the same proposal as before… This seems deeply disrespectful of the subject matter

It feels like a someone is trying to steal a cookie from a cookie jar, but when mum said no you just try again the exact same way…
