Comment Re:This is media noise (Score 1) 112

Why are the "gaming-media" trying to knife the developers in the back? Because Cyberpunk 2077 is going to appeal to the average male gamer with themes that are rather non-woke, and woke, and everything mixed together.

And that is what they hate, any kind of commentary that might showcase them as being part of a dystopian future triggers them, and they know the average person will see them for what they are, so they need to attack and censor.

Well, if certain groups of people with power start talking about "The Great Reset" and how we will own nothing, rent everything, and be happy... I think I'll be looking at what has been happening with the lockdowns with a rather sceptical eye.

That you don't, and how lame the replies has been thus far on this site, means that the slashdot community is nothing compared to what it used to be some 15-20 years ago.

Well tested, and has the news sources you listen to told you about the really really bad side-effects experienced by several of the subject of the bill gates backed vaccine?

if it was 10x, we'd have 600k deaths in the US, yet we don't and even the 200k number is suspect due to the way they are reported.

And what kind of young individuals actually die from it? They're pretty much all those with rather serious comorbidities and since I'm not a 300-pound astma sufferer, I'm quite safe, and so are the rest of my extended family.

Take a breath, calm down and realize you are currently experiencing what is called "mass hysteria" and thus much of what you think you know and the fears you feel are literally hallucinations.

2017-18 flue season had some 60k deaths in the US, and that's without the monetary and political incentives to record any and all deaths as having been due to that disease.

You are the kind of irrational authoritarian person that has convinced me that I need to be very careful what "experts" are demanding we do and what kind of people we allow to have power.

I'm curious, what exactly is this "risk" COVID-19 exposure brings?

You are telling me I have the choice between a completely new and largely untested change of my mRNA code, versus a corona virus that hasn't killed that much more than seasonal flue/influenza.

Comment Fancy Bear (APT 28), a collection of hacking tools (Score 0) 58

It's been said before, and sad to see how the quality of people here has fallen so the last 2 decades, that APT 28 is identified by the hacking tools they use.

Those tools are available on the internet, and one "used" (never proven, evidence handled by a private security company) was hosted on wordpress and shown to be over a year old version at the time of the supposed hack.

The evidence for it being a russian hack found in the documents leaked by the "hacker" to the media prior to the WL release was in the form of copy-pasting the original documents into a russian language setting word document.

Except the guy who most likely did it, W. F., a DNC IT staffer, only seem to have had rudimentary IT knowledge, as he didn't realize that even if you replace the original document creator metadata entry it still keeps the actual creator as a hidden entry.

What he saw in Word: (historic russian spy agency chief's name), (some dnc staffer, iirc)

What we saw in metadata: (W.F., dnc staffer), (historic russian spy agency chief's name), (some dnc staffer, iirc)

This site is supposed to be for high-iq computer enthusiasts, not mid-wits who haven't even looked into the biggest tech story from 4 years ago.

Opposite coast of Hunter Biden's place, down the street from Joe Biden.

And the same organization that tried to impeach Trump also hid evidence on Biden's corruption, it's almost like they don't like the former.

Where do you get your talking points, cause they are rather lame.

I have a feeling most of us who were on this site back in the early days are now way past the information-wants-to-be-free phase, and are full on you know what.

In a previous era, when I was young, this place would be having technically detailed discussions of trending topics, suppression and censorship, etc even if literal Hilter himself was posting on Twitter. Now we have posts like the above.

You have the choice between US spyware and Chinese spyware, so which to pick is a matter of preference.

Though what most people seem to completely miss is that this isn't so much about spyware and censorship, but rather who spies and who censors.

You want to make jokes that are really funny yet have these past few years been impossible to make? Use TikTok.

Want to repeat what every professor teaches, every late-night host jokes about, every politician espouses, every multi-national corporation stands behinds?... Well, you do not need TikTok and you're a very boring and uninteresting person.
