Misread the post title, thought everybody jumped and left you all alone.

“Fuck your magic, free Lilo and Stitch”

I shout as I start downloading Lilo and Stitch from a torrent

At this point they get to throw everything at the wall and see what sticks.

Self defense is self defense, would we expect some different behavior from a country being attacked from outside interests with publicly accessible end to end encryption services?

blocks appear to be part of a crackdown on internal dissent in both countries.

Or… you know… at least for Venezuela, the USA constantly fucking around with their elections and politics and local assets using Signal or something. Maybe, I dunno?

Depositing checks is about the only useful thing I’ve seen on my local bank’s app, but that only matters if you do business stuff with people who pay with checks.

Unfortunately I’m not in any specific position to have access to things that could be of help.

But good to know.

Doesn’t have everything, but does have quite a bit. Still 10/10, would use again.

Specifically, the executives and shareholders want their Publicly Traded Shares of company stock to be increasing in value. Advertisers are good for getting long term holders of the stock to keep holding and buying, but everybody else is looking to quietly pump up the numbers and sell what they can without upsetting the apple-cart.

I’d bet a shiny metal dollar that after the IPO starts, the porn subs will slowly start being winnowed down. Give it a few years and if any exist they will be private.

Porn is less of a legal liability than copyright claims is my guess.

Also… like… if somebody is dumping money into Reddit as a user of Reddit, which is more likely to make them stop: killing the piracy forums or the porn forums?

The optics of a potentially publicly traded company (what ever happened with the Reddit IPO thing?) openly having a “how to steal other companies copyrighted work” forum is more of a negative than IP farming with no method to actually do anything useful with the IP addresses.

Profitability might not be the issue, neither are supposed to function solely to make a profit. From the linked blog post, referencing an email, it is stated that its costing more than the revenue can support.

From a general internet search:

c(3)'s can’t engage too much (or at all) in legislative stuff but a c(6) can

c(3)'s are supposed to do things to help a group outside of itself while c(6)'s are supposed to exist to support their members

c(6)'s aren’t required to report personal information of a person/entity making a donation to the IRS or public

Don’t have time to read the research paper linked by the article at the moment…

But isn’t the research just looking at how people view the message and not “were you pirating stuff and now you’re not?”

tldr

“Womens, get your mans to pirate you the latest season of Outlander”

Does Netflix still do the “free trial period” and “get free months if a friend sent you” thing?

Are there any numbers about how many unsubscribers to compare to the subscribers? That’d be a juicy number.

How are the laws/regulations worded in Australia?

“Discrimination in employment based on age” or “discrimination in pay based on age” can probably be considered two separate things. (A silly distinction, but weasel words make the politics go round.) Id be surprised if anti-discrimination laws combined both of these to grant more protections to a large chunk of the workforce.

I mean, my home is filled with ancient laptops that we use until they explode, its a pretty common occurrence when trying to watch something streaming the ads would load just fine but the actual show wouldn’t actually load. So… shrug

Would removing anonymity from email reduce or remove this threat? If business blocked all uncertified email senders, would this threat be gone?

So as a goober that keeps getting jobs where my employer mandates that I am assigned an email address from their private email system, is told to “practice cyber security awareness” blah blah blah, and then is immediately spammed by internal emails with a shit ton of links (from people who are strangers to me but actually work for the same employer) from inside the org, I don’t think removing anonymity would eliminate the threat. I’m being habituated into opening, reading, and encouraged to click links from “strangers” by my employer.

It might make it easier to for an attacker to ID a target though.

Depends on what kind of programing your doing and what kind of projects your working on.

As a person who isn’t great a programming, has no real use for it in my daily life and forgets everything I’ve learned, and has pretty much given up on trying to remember what little I ever knew I was able to make a program that used Excel, an Excel compatible version of a grocery store’s main supplier’s invoices, and USB barcode scanner to greatly speed up checking in the 10+ pallets of stuff that would come in three days a week.

Pretty much the only math I can remember needing to use was “add +1 to value stored in incrementerVariable”.

Also, as far as programming goes, you can be bad at math so long as you can remember that there is a formula to do a thing. Nobody is expecting you to remember a pile of equations, only that they exist and how to look them up when you need them.
