You live in a fantasy if you think hipaa protects you from data sharing.

When you agreed to medical service and signed the hipaa notice, that you didnt read, it was you agreeing to allow them to share it for business purposes, you are not allowed to opt out and get service ... then it gets mixed in with other data and sold.

You have this false fantasy that anyone cares about hipaa beyond getting you to sign the contract.

The town can simply ban that sort of surveillance. Contract can go fuck itself if the law supersedes it, yes retroactively.

This retarded idea that a company can do whatever it wants because of a weasely contract is false.

The residents control the town, not some secretly foreign run mass surveillance company these idiots keep getting bribed by.

Flatpak, Snap and containers in general need lots of drive space. Good thing storage is cheap these days OH WAIT

Yes, sadly, they do not cure mental illness.

Truth Social I'm sure. As hard as it is to believe, there are still people who think Trump is a genius, and still want to "own the Libs".

Thats cute. Now put it in front of the public without the person on the other end following your demo script...

All of the sudden its shit.

My company has done this as well, and it works great for the guy who made it, who talks to it with knowledge of its capabilities and nuances... but then as soon as anyone with a slightly different choice of words comes along ... its fucked.

Because they're the most powerful and easy to use, and likely only, data manipulation tool a person with no hint of computing-specific education is likely to run across.

How are these people not in prison?

Though, to be fair - this really isn't an important announcement - its just an improvement developers will appreciate - and a few guys that truly understand hypervisors. The rest of us, at best will say ... 'cool ...'

While not entirely true in desktop land yet - increasingly, more and more things are containerized, then run inside virtualization ... this does matter to everyone, even if its not immediately apparent.

How does CBP know where the upload is? Is the uploaded file publicly accessible or would they need another password to even get their hands on it?

Defending the concept of a constitution-free tyranny zone for foreigners (where US border patrol somehow still has legal authority?) is fashy enough, but it's really freaking bad when you use it to strip an American citizen of the rights their own country affords them.

From an encrypted container file that was uploaded from your device to anywhere convenient.

Fuck yeah buddy, that was badass! The fascists who see any problem with this can suck it!

40% of Canada's land area is covered in forests. It is simply impossible to "manage" that much forest, and it's utterly fucking absurd to suggest otherwise. And to try to take climate change out of the equation is just a way of misdirecting away from the actual fucking cause; GHG emissions raising surface temperatures.

When will humans stop buying the most trivially fucking moronic red herrings? What a disreputable idiotic species.

It's almost as if allowing emissions to ramp up with little meaningful effort to control them is having the inevitable consequences predicted decades ago. But let's not deal with that, because it's hard. Instead let's have the President of the United States demand Canada hold back the tides.
