IIS. So so so much IIS.

Don’t get me wrong - I love this, but who has 3 dozen moths in a paper bag?

What’s absolutely wild is that lots of people voted for this guy bc they firmly believed he was the moral high-ground as opposed to those scary devil-loving democrats. It’s mind-boggling…

And if you can’t use MoCa - say, bc the cable installers cut all the other coax cords on the house (true story!) - you can also consider powerline adapters to send Ethernet over your electrical wiring. It’s a crapshoot depending on the quality of your wiring but I can usually get at least the same speed as my wifi with it.

[Win+x, i ], my brother in Gates! But yeah, I share your cynicism of their priorities.

Microsoft built the encryption in Windows so know how to get around it. In theory that remains a closely guarded secret but there are the warrants and the NSA and…

That’s basically what I thought when I saw this - there’s no way anything is happening that quickly, this is just outputting “done!” over and over.

I assume they meant sonar

I don’t disagree, but the article also mentioned that they’ve already sold their first commercial deployment so I don’t think it’s entirely vaporware…?

But that would never happen because, you know, money.

Didn’t Biden basically issue a preemptive blanket pardon for people (his son, maybe?) before he left office?

I realize captchas are to prevent bot behavior but I wish there could be some sort of threshold on the backend where if you fail enough times it should recognize that a bot would’ve moved on by now and only an actual human being would be dumb enough to have persisted that long.

Plot?

[Dietrich Bonhoeffer has entered the chat.]

I don’t necessarily disagree, but I feel like its worth pointing out that gerrymandering was first used in Massachusetts.

Sometimes devs are pretty good at their games. Other times, they bring QA who are typically really good at their games.

There’s no monopoly on the government-intelligence-villain look

Isn’t that arguably the nature of encryption, though? If you lose the key, you’re SOL by design.

John Oliver did a segment on this about a month ago, but yeah, you just nailed it.

There was a weird smear campaign against him about that but it wasn’t true - multiple people (including the actor) detailed his training regimen.
