Ive been telling people that Trump will pull an Andrew Jackson because in reality the judicial branch of the government has NO enforcement mechanism for their rulings.

They have to hope the executive branch will play by the rules and follow their rulings.

Roberts and his justices gave Trump even more unchecked power when they rule the president cannot be tried for official acts (leaving only impeachment as a means of punishment).

He must not be any sort of history buff because he would know the power of the judicial system is stripped away and becomes a superficial system that is used to punish those in the “out” group when a state turns to fascism or a dictatorship.

Roberts is truly a dipshit and a clown.

And to think this is only going to get worse with each passing year we do nothing about climate change.

I had a similar experience where we had an entire class for Novell Directory Services. The reason our teacher gave for keeping the class in the curriculum? We MAY run into it in the workforce.

When I say buy I should have said renew the same license/support. I get the idea that by supporting Crossover I’m reinforcing Windows dominace, but look at Valve with proton and the Steamdeck. Their success shows that Linux is gaming capable which can get people to try Linux that otherwise would have wrote it off.

Edit: swapped ‘capable’ and ‘gaming’

I buy a license for Crossover every year to support Codeweavers. I know its not much but its what I can do to show my support for such an amazing software (talking about WINE).

It’s great to see they are hiring, but I do hope they arent being rash with these openings. Ive work my fair share of tech companies and some have a culture to open positions because of KPIs and then 6 months to a year later have a massive layoff because they were completely off with their projections so now they have to cut positions which include some of the people hired well before the hiring bananza.

DNSSEC is a means of authenticating the data receives was not tampered with, such as MITM attacks, thus ensuring data integrity. It uses PKI but it’s not an alternative to DoH or DoT which encrypts the DNS traffic, either over HTTPS or TLS, providing confidentiality.

DNSSEC can be used in conjunction with DoH or DoT to achieve the Security CIA triad - Confidentiality, Integrity, Authenticity.

While this is nice, I do hope they consider making it easier to remove and install a new battery for the next iteration of the steam deck.

To clarify, I mean something similar to phones where the backplate can slide off or preferably a panel, secured by a screw, when removed allows direct access to the battery and allows it to be easily swapped out - similar to many kids toys.

Considering the recent revelations about the shady, scummy and unethical business practices by Honey, I can’t say I’m surprised that one of the co-founders is doing more shady shit with their new endeavor.

The biggest obstacle with Stadia suceeding was Google’s, rightfully earned, reputation to kill their products.

It ended up becoming a self fulfilling prophecy and has further cemented Googles reputation for killing products/services.

Google’s M.O these days seem to be “If it doesn’t make money instantly, kill it and move on.”

Does codeberg have anything that will prevent an influx of bots or AI accounts that have plagued GitHub?

I ask because as the user base for codeberg grows the bots, AI and nefarious actors will follow.

I like the idea of a federated source code hosting platform especially since it removes lock-in to a single corporation and a defacto monopoly.

That in itself is a good enough reason to migrate, but regarding this particular issue, bots/AI and artificial project promotion for malicious intent, feels like re-arranging deck chairs on the Titanic.

Even if the FBI does catch this guy, the Feds are still gonna have a helluva time trying to cobble together an impartial jury, not to mention alternatives. One question will eliminate a large portion of the jury pool…

“Do you currently, or previously had UHC as a health insurer?”

I could see this case having a hung jury or even seeing jury nullification occur - though it’s highly unlikely for nullification to happen.

The Feds will put ungodly amounts of pressure to accept a plea deal.

Edit: added the missing ‘y’ to ‘currently’ and added a space between ‘previously’ and 'had

It’s all good, we both clarified our* thoughts on the matter and to be fair using “ruined” instead of “ruining” or “started to ruin” indicates a completed process or final state instead of a continuous one.

I agree that previously one could construct a search to sort the noise out, but as you stated this has become unfeasible without a sharp increase of queries needed to refine results which has shifted the thought from questioning if Google search is bad to now generally accepted belief - to the point where people are trying to quantify and provide evidence to back up the claim.

*Fixed typo of ‘out’ to ‘our’

Public in this term has nothing to do with intelligence, but rather people outside of companies working on AI/LLMs or doing AI research. It’s why I mentioned it entering the zeitgeist.

I never mentioned a hard cutoff but said they ruined it before LLMs were in use by the general public. Essentially I’m referring to the starting of the degradation of Google’s search which they made conscious decisions that deliberately put profit above all.

Avid Amoeba is right that Google ruined their own search before LLMs entered the public consciousness (this does not mean LLMs didn’t exist before this, but that they were not widely available for the general public to use or became part of the zeitgeist).

If you don’t agree please listen to the Better Offline podcast episode “The Man That Destroyed Google Search”. The episode goes through the rollbacks/changes Google made to their search Algorithm well before AI was commonplace.

These measures align with Putin’s push for “traditional values” amid population decline

Hear me out Putin, but what if you didn’t toss everyone who can fog a mirror into your meat grinder of a war? No? Wait why do you want me to stand near the window?

I use DBeaver at work when I am having problems with psql commands in terminal. It’s prevented me from pulling out my hair a few times.

I hate to say it but company data is most definitely on personal computers.

This is why stuff like adaptive MFA and DLP are a thing. What most people don’t know is if DLP is properly implemented the IT team/department have records of who, when, where, and what device were used to not just access/download data/files.

The problem is a lot of companies don’t properly implement DLP because it’s not a turn key solution. You need to properly classify your data first and that requires essentially a company wide audit with buy-in from all levels of management. After the classifications you can then implement restrictions and compensating controls.

Back in the day you could just block USB/network transfer, but if you have data accessible outside of a corporate network you then need to implement conditional access/adaptive MFA where only registered devices are permitted to access certain systems.

I never considered or thought about union assistance nor the possibility it would be prohibited. It would have been nice for the article to explain in more detail how the exemption works.

My initial question reading this was, do SAG-AFTRA actors working on movies have similar exemptions - a movie started over a year before a strike is called is exempted from said strike?

From the article is says these terms were inherited from legacy agreements prior to SAG and AFTRA merging so it may just be specific to video games.

What really caught my attention was at the end of the article it states union members can strike in solidarity and cannot be retaliated for doing so.

So a second question is raised, if the members are still allowed to strike in solidarity and in THEORY can’t be punished for doing so how is GTA6 really exempt from the strike then IF they are using SAG-AFTRA members?

I think it would be better to state there is no GUARANTEE that actors working on GTA6 will strike due to previously negotiated contracts, but that wording makes them sound more like scabs whereas putting the emphasis on the contract exemption makes it sound like they are obligated to keep working.
