I think who you and GP are looking for are the Black Panthers. They're still around and didn't take kindly to the ICE goon squad.

That sounds socialist.

AI is a metric fuckton of cons and a tiny pinch of pros. Typically we allow bad things to happen if they come with a greater amount of good, not the other way around.

Some scientific studies have found that permanent DST is about 2/3rds as good as permanent standard time:

And others have found that permanent DST is the worst option:

Considering Trump is pushing this it's probably lucky that he's not manually adjusting the time zone to suit how he feels with no warning.

As we used to say in the security profession, the weakest link is not the software, or the hardware, it's always the wetware.

Because unlike software-based solutions, it can successfully hide the information from the user (barring any hardware vulnerabilities). The problem isn't just that hidden information can exist on the system, the problem is that the root user can't access the information. Being able to access the information is what made DRM crackable. Without that, it could be possible to make a DRM system that actually works, which would be the worst invention in the history of computing. If the user can clear it but not see it, that does nothing to make that less viable.

No strawman, it happens almost every time I express concern at the possibility of TPM enabling a working DRM system.

Anyone care to once again reassure me how TPM, a system for hiding information from a computer's user regardless of privilege level, can't be used for DRM again?

Just be evil . . .

I find it difficult to believe that you are quite so uninformed about the real situation on the ground, but if you're a professional troll you're really bad at it.

Exactly.

Oh, you got a job as one of the Pentagram's force of "Cyber-warriors" I take it? I'd rather live under a bridge than become a war-whore, but to each their own I guess.

It's between Chums Corner and Interlochen (Interlochen State Park also hosts one of the few stands of virgin white pine in the state.)
