In truth and practice "woke" means "willing and enthusiastic about censorship and promotes anti-white racism". It's disgusting that anyone advocates for that shit. However, one of the fucking woke retards here modded you a troll simply for mentioning "woke" in a negative light. Why? It's 100% negative! Feel free to waste your mod points doing it to me, too. I keep my karma shit just for you guys to break your teeth on. Mod away, fuckfaces, just know I'll bust a chuckle for your wasted effort later.

There are plenty of folks who seem to just be above the enforcement of law simply by being useful and familiar to a large number of people. For example, there is little doubt that vehicle and power plant emissions do harm some folks materially. However, they can't sue (despite having clear standing) because people find having power and mobility too useful. The thing that seems unfair is that it's a mostly winner-take-all scenario. Despite the fact that we need electricity and ICE engines, we also would like folks not to have to deal with the secondary effects of pollution and it seems ill-advised to protect any entity from the law while penalizing others for the same thing.

Wait who? Yeah, me neither.

Greg KH is the second biggest idiot with kernel commit access (after Pottering of course). I'm surprised that mother fucker even knows four words.

That'd be worrisome if they had any skill to create the exploits. They don't. If the LLM doesn't create the exploit for them in Python and give them a one-liner to test it, then these "attackers" are helpless.

These guys...SMH. Lint missed the bugs, Coverity missed the bugs, all the other LLMs missed the bugs but MYTHOS, now... It's soooooo amazing and sooooo powerful. They just can't even show you how powerful, yet. However, hang out, buy some stock and chill. They pinky promise they totally aren't lying like they have been previously. Totally, not hype this time.... totally.

If you claim there is a security problem, but you cannot exploit it, there is a phrase for that. It's called "being totally full of crap". Anthropic claims to have "thousands" yet they've got exploits for less than a dozen. Sounds like we need to use that phrase.

I guess I shouldn't comment. I haven't used windows as a desktop OS. I was a user of MS-DOS and I disliked it greatly and always tried to use alternatives (with mixed success with DR-DOS and others) before becoming a BSD and Linux user in the early 1990's when Microsoft released Win 3.1. I've seen the ads in the start menu on other folks systems or at places like MicroCenter, but I shouldn't have assumed that it was impossible to turn off.

You know if someone like Fluxbox or Window Maker did this I'd be kind of excited or at least interested. Imagine this announcement: "We've decided to work on WindowMaker full time using YOU as a resource. We'll be adding a lot more features. You're a lazy dick who's used our environment for a long time and despite never donating a dime to the cause, we've decided to make you indirectly responsible for funding our dream. We'll be adding some great new features but we're adding a non-configurable single WindowMaker dock icon that will stream ads and other annoying crap people pay us to show you. We'll probably also scrape your process list for stuff we can relate to ads and maybe dig around in your homedir a bit. If we can get an intelligence community interested, we might do a little spying & telemetry, too. Nonetheless, we'll be adding built in Sprite-based effects and transitions, incredible 3D eye candy, a suite of professionally created (okay AI-created) themes, and really useful task switching features as well as full GNUStep integration if you can stand all that other fuck-shit."

Well that makes one of us. I'm with the "Get that thing away from me, away from my head" crowd.

It's just not something people want. Seeing how far the Internet has fallen from it's original purpose, it's not surprising. We all thought "information wants to be free" and that the Internet would bring it to us. Instead we got a mix between a giant strip mall that puts everyone else in town outta business and an iron rod of control used by governments. It went sideways and now it sucks.

That's one thing if the Net lives on your computer or your phone, but not if it lives on your face like a head crab. I remember seeing Stephen Mann once in the late 1990's and someone asked him about surgically inserting cyborg parts. He was like "Maybe. However, only if it's open source. Anything else is probably a virus. That includes operating systems written by hostile companies like Microsoft." So, I think his spot-on instincts are what everyone else is also channeling "I ain't putting that thing on my head."

Did it occur to you that I'm still alive, it's after CV19, and that basically ruins your whole snarky point ? I'll likely still be alive the next time you faggots try it, too, still refusing to do whatever opportunistic shit you're trying to pull. We'll see you then, pal... just a lot better armed and a lot more pissed off than last time.

All they will "hash out" is how much the plebs absolutely must PAY for their crime of wanting to drive to work. They'll arrive at some kind of unenforceable and ridiculous declarations that for sure won't involve stopping anything that's shipped via bunker oil or trucked to them via diesel. Nor will their regulations impact the private jets they fly in and out of the conference on.

If it's something super scary and severe, then perhaps, but I'd be inclined to believe the exact opposite. I'd assert the next time a bunch of panicked leftists want to shut down small businesses and churches and it's anything short of Marburg or Ebola, you're going to see a lot more refusniks and a lot more protest, divisiveness, and violence than we saw during CV1984. Authoritarians overplayed their hand in 20-22 and I think the "next time" is going to get a lot more pushback, especially if it's anytime soon.

Only The Atlantic could write an article this douchy, paternal, and utterly wrong. Remember when they wrote the Let’s Declare a Pandemic Amnesty after spending two years demonizing skeptics, refuseniks, and scientists as cranks and nutcases for doubting the effectiveness of the more draconian measures in play back then? Yeah, I don't think so. I'll never forget those cunts. Mother fuck the douchebags at the Atlantic and the donkey they rode in on.
