@aral, I don’t think the @fsf has ever issue any statement similar to JS is dangerous. I think its official stand is only against non-free software, which includes client-side code. GNU LibreJS is recommended by the foundation instead of disabling JS all together.

I don’t understand why some people are confused. It’s really quite simple.

How FDA approval works:

A panel of 11 experts votes 10 "not enough evidence to show the drug works" and 1 "not sure". FDA approves the drug. 1 panel member resigns.

Brought to you by the government regulators who gave emergency authorization (not approval) for a medical experiment that's killed 5000+ people in USA.

So a few researchers from the Russian cybersec firm, PT Security, recently found secret instructions inside Intel CPUs that allow them to disassembler and modify the microcode inside the chips. This is an extremely technically impressive hack that is about as low level as you can get. But it is not inventing a new hack, it is discovering undocumented backdoors that Intel have put into their own chips going back decades.

Suddenly, BAM! The US Treasury Dept puts PT Security on the Sanctions List and accuses them of being a FSB/GRU front company--a claim that cannot be disproven, so PT Security is now in the double jeapordy situation of having no way to clear their own name.

What a coincidence amirite?

I find this whole incident and Deep State coverup to be the most bleak and dystopian news in computing since 2013 when the Snowden leaks began. We all complain now about being peasant sharecroppers who just pay rent to Big Tech Oligarchs and Monopolies who own all computing infrastructure, the software-as-a-service, your iPhones and Androids. You no longer own your own computers and the noose is tightening for what you are allowed to do with your rental computers.

The punchline to this is that you are not even allowed to know about the lowest level NSA backdoors built into every CPU in every computing device you own. And if some hacker genius does figure it out and tells you, that hacker will be sanctioned, cancelled, gulag'd and finally drone striked by the US Govt.

You are not allowed to know about the NSA backdoors inside Intel CPUs and if you do find out, you will be blackballed from the entire economy and be unable to buy or sell without the Mark of the Beast on your hand.

The guy who found NSA's backdoor in Intel chips tried to talk about it at the famous Blackhat hacker conference.

Rejected.

Fucking hilarious. Here we have one of the biggest, deepest hacks found in decades and Blackhat doesn't want to talk about it. Probably because Blackhat wants to give more time to trannies and nigs who can't code to talk about some diversity BS.

Blackhat is a intel front and a limited hangout. Their job isn't to help cyber security, their real job is to keep faux hackers distracted on meaningless high level lame hacks, while covering up the real shit deep down inside the chips that cannot be detected or blocked (until now). If you work in cyber security, you are a clown wearing a Superman costume and you don't even know what you don't know.

imagine what the NSA can do with a secret CPU instruction that allows them to modify the microcode inside an Intel chip? such as the one this guy found.

all security is fake and gay LARPing to create a smokescreen to distract you from noticing that NSA is already raping your CPU at will.

funny, somehow the secret CPU instruction that gives backdoor access to Intel chips was already been labelled by NSA's Ghidra reverse engineering tool.

how did NSA know about this years ago? LOL you already know the answer. @adam

I got a taste of the sheer volume of rubbish that makes up 80 or 90% of the fediverse on friday - lewds and worse down to stuff that is liable to get you arrested. I nearly quit, but I've simmered down a bit.

It made me realise that while i strongly like decentralisation of powers - nations not UN, states not federal ... I don't think I believe in "Freedom of Speech" as a virtue in it's own right. We earn the right to speak, nobody is born with it.

I hate what "Free Speech has been twisted into - once, it meant the right to maturely present a case and be heard, but now it means the right to publicly pursue all kinds of perverse and twisted things. To promote abuse of others, and speak about things that are shameful even to mention.

It made me realise how much rubbish @josias moderates too - mate, you're a champion and you are carrying a heavy responsibility in the work you do, creating a safe-harbour for the rest of us to hang out in. Thankyou for your perseverance and willingness to do what others won't. It makes this server the sanctuary it is, and I so, so appreciate it.

4/ actually, it's a lot like religious *repentance*. True repentance for a wiccan means things like burning all your craft books and getting rid of the stuff - to stop eating sugar i basically had to not have it in the house, put away the junk food cookbooks, and go looking for 'real' food to eat instead.

It was really hard to quit, but as i cleaned sugar out of the house and learnt new ways to eat, it felt like repentance a bit - except I didn't get any real reward, at least not yet... i just have no crutch at 3pm when i'm tired and have low blood sugar. hmph

Also then our family have literally been throwing wrapped chocolates into our front yard, handing chocolate eggs to the kids, bringing us cake, and offering us biscuits with icing on top.

They mean well and are just trying to meet social obligations but i wonder if it's a bit like that with unbelieving family in a faith context - you're invited to watch shows you've decided not to anymore, or drink more than you were going to, or whatever your convictions are

Despite threats and withdrawal of support from former and current corporate patrons, FSF has reaffirmed their commitment to keep RMS on the Board of Directors. I hate to admit I was dragging my feet on renewing my FSF membership to financially support their cause -- because of the anti-FSF FUD -- but this settles it for me. I'm donating later today after I'm done with work.

@everlastingrocks @rose_myrtle there are multiple issues with MMS support, one of the major ones being that MMS is geographically in another area as most developers are. I can't work on it because it just isn't a thing here.

The other issue is that the technical implementation of mms is kinda horrible. Some people have made implementations that work though and currently in the slow process of upstreaming it to the 10 projects in the tech stack to glue it all together

@masterofthetiger unclear. we suspect that both will be about the same - probably two years ish based on similar sars cases. but we can't possibly know until we actually see serum antibody tests start coming up negative. and there's some talk in immunology circles about memory T cell immunity being created that doesn't show up on serum tests. shrug! we'll know more in the future.

My conspiracy free reasons for not getting the vax, if someone asks:

Haven’t been offered one yet.

Provisional emergency FDA approval sounds like a clinical trial. I don’t participate in clinical trials.

The scientific experts keep changing the recommendations and tend to equivocate. I’m not convinced that they know what they are doing.

Sing, O People of God

Sing, O people of God!
His glory’s in the cloud;
Your sins thrown in the deepest sea,
He gave you purity.

Sing and shout for joy,
Return to God and know
His grace and goodness know no end;
And all your prayers ascend.

Life in Christ is yours,
From flowing grace he pours
All blessing into your open heart;
In love you’ve been redeemed.

Sen. Rand Paul:

"No Democrat will honestly ask whether Bernie Sanders incited the shooter that nearly killed Steve Scalise."

"No Democrat will ask whether Maxine Waters incited violence when she literally told her supporters" to confront Trump officials in public.

@progo I know that it would be a big risk to install KDE/Qt on my computer as I expected exactly this to happen.I only didn't expect it to happen two weeks after installing it already 😲 Let's see if KDE will make a open source fork.Well,they have to,otherwise KDE would be dead.
