Worked at a trucking company as a software dev and this exact thing happened. Got hit with ransomware attack but our IT team had daily backups of EVERYTHING. This was when ransomware was first "taking off" and they weren't even 100% sure if the attack was real.
I wish I got to see the ransomware's operator's reaction, but I honestly feel like they probably had enough people falling for it so I doubt they really got that upset.
How dare someone want to use something free and open source, that's developed by a vast community of individuals instead of relying on 1 individual (who might disappear at a moment's notice) for every single update and bug fix. Tstst.
See, I can be snarky too
Were you living under a rock? People were frothing at the mouths BEGGING for it to be true.
What about kids in school? So only the poor kids who don't have access to their own hardware will be subject to these rules that prevent them from viewing source? Sounds pretty insane.
What's truly absurd is the apparent lack of critical thought that went into this decision.
Keep patting yourself on the back though, Eric. You're obviously totally 100% right on this one /s
Because google wants to control public perception, and the entire public conversation about EVERYTHING
So is the argument from fallacy... If you want to argue against science then you should bring your own evidence because claiming that someone agreeing that their observations match 3rd party scientific observations is a fallacy is beyond silly.
And it's not like I'm making decisions based on my coworker's family members getting covid lol. This is a much more complex issue, and that really kind of reduces the entire thing to the point of absurdity.
Either the immunity wanes over time or people who are vaccinated are taking more risks or something
What "catchphrase" am I even repeating? I feel like you didn't even read what I wrote lol. Like, do you honestly think the only way I could come to that opinion was if I was parroting some talking point? No, I have just met way too many fake activists who clearly only care so long as the only effort they have to put in is criticizing other people, while doing nothing in their personal lives to solve the problem.
I think we do have a pollution problem, I also think we have a hypocrite problem. I take issue with fake people preaching down to people while doing nothing themselves.
You can believe whatever you want about me bc of it, I couldn't care less
You confuse equal opportunity with equal circumstances. All we can do is give people equal opportunity under law, so that nobody is restricted from opportunity from a legal perspective. Trying to solve the problem of equal circumstances will always result in the violation of human rights. We should do our best to give people the tools and education they need to succeed so that these other factors do not influence their life as much, and they can overcome the obstacles that they've been presented with.
How about everyone just takes personal responsibility instead of pointing at someone who pollutes more? Because the big corporation you're pointing at can just point their finger at the next bigger problem and then nothing gets done.
Thank you for so perfectly illustrating the attitude that climate "activists" seem to take though. "If I have to lift a finger more than the minimum amount I need, in order to point it at someone else, then the problem isn't worth my effort to try to solve. Jerry beats his wife more than I do, so maybe he should stop first"
For instance, I live in a fairly liberal area and a few of my friends bring up climate change from time to time, but they literally all drive gas-powered SUVs... I've jokingly brought it up with one of them and they basically said "I think we should focus on big corporations bc they pollute way more than 1 person"... I drive a tiny gas-powered car but I also don't ride around on my high horse talking about other ppl destroying the planet
I'm at the point where I don't really believe what people say when it comes to this kind of stuff, and judge people based on their actions, because it seems like just about everybody is willing to talk, but not many who are willing to walk. And I only say "judge" bc that's what people are asking me to do when they opine about how they think bad things are bad. Like, cool, you think definitively bad things are bad... if I had a cookie to give.. /rant
Nobody who's done anything shady has ever acted like that in the history of the world /s
* Files copied to personal cloud storage
* Files printed to local or network devices
* Files transferred or copied to a network share
* Files copied to USB devices
Nothing too crazy... until you get to the part where they talk about how admins will also be judging the character of their employees along with risk factors using machine learning algorithms that spy on employees... Nothing weird about that at all /s
Actually we do tolerate people talking about this stuff because we have the right to speak freely in the USA.
USA is allies with Taiwan. If this is a China/Taiwan issue then it's a China/USA issue by definition. If China keeps being aggressive then the USA, and their allies, will be forced to respond to protect these innocent victims.
The sad truth is that any company that uses DRM couldn't care less about you. They only care about money and they won't even push an update to remove DRM for a game they don't even sell anymore, so that people who paid money for the content can actually use said content.
I don't think I'll ever buy another MacBook based on that alone. Of course apple support won't/can't do anything for me bc they don't support it anymore..
They effectively are forcing me to buy a new macbook because I can't use ANYTHING on it anymore. Before I could use some things and Catalina had a lot more features but they really fucked me over here and I'm not happy about it. They literally tricked me into trying to update and now my macbook is useless..
Spiders know what they're doing lol
