Sigh, further proof that we have been so thoroughly and completely propagandized to the point where its easier to imagine the end of the world, than the end of capitalism.

How about we just make money irrelevant when it comes to subsistence? Free food, drinking water, a cot, healthcare, education, transportation, library/internet. Most of those things we feel are important to provide prisoners, but not grandma?

Its almost like a socialist revolution or death are our choices now. Any hint of the first choice is met with arguments that socialism is a terrible choice and will lead to a worse life for all, like that argument is somehow defensible when the chpice can be boiled down to "Non-zero chance of death OR 100% chance of death for 90% of the population."

These Malthusian psychopaths can fuck right off.

Open and community driven firmware is great. Combine that with open source SOC designs its even better, but firmware runs on a chip, and many of these chips are the product of mostly semiconductor industries in China or Taiwan. Cisco or Netgear may have IP on designs and schematics, but they send these schematics to chip forges out East, and they will run volume batches for clients. Along the way, any number of unknown subcontractors get their fingers into any part of the manufacturing process, and you got a nice little hardware baked attack vector just waiting to be exploited. Basically, you cant fix a poop covered lasagna by adding more layers.

Well to be fair, he did promise to return America to its former state. A depraved godless nation of wickedness and greed, built on the foundations of exploitation and slave labor.

The only reason crypto is useless is because it is easier for folks to imagine the end of the world before they can imagine a world without a central bank. It says a lot more about how effective propaganda is than the utility of bitcoin.

There will be almost no jobs for them anyway. At least no juice worth the squeeze. Techno Feudalism is all the rage.

Evil like the "seeing stone" that Sauraman used to remain in contact with the dark lord of Mordor, Sauron. What was it called again? Oh right, the Palantir. Strange coincidence or an arrogant taunt at the powerless and disenfranchised?

Respect. Ex-PNC as well. I used to think all corporate was like this, but it wasnt until I got remote jobs in cities outside of PA that I realized that region of the country seems to make a huge difference.

I was a child prodigy who skipped a grade, not dissimilar to Sheldon Cooper, except I was better socialized, and excelled at athletics and was a leader in the Boy Scouts.

I had a real problem getting to sleep at night and waking up in the morning. I would read in bed until late at night and be late in the morning.

At some point in my early 20's I experienced a period of unemployment, and at my doctors advice I started tracking my sleep. We determined that I had a 27 hour biological clock. He said it was unusual, but happened to some people, mostly young men, and that I would grow out of it as I got older. Which didn't really happen, but kind of happened. I have a 24 hour clock but I only sleep 6 hours a night, sometimes less.

Shame on the editor for leaving out the most important piece of information on this story. Before his death, he literally went on a local affiliate news station and stated that if he were to die in the recent months that we should expect he was assassinated. He was warning us.

No. I do not. The polar deserts are becoming valuable real estate. I don't need to persuade anyone of anything. I need to secure property rights, build fences and buy guns to protect my claim from those who clued in late. I'm really just making conversation.
