This system goes down more often than a two-dollar whore.

9/11 gave the NSA an excuse to do what it "had long wanted," says EFF's Executive Director Cindy Cohn: "To ‘sit on the wire,’ to watch all internet traffic and pick out whatever they chose. Now they finally had the crisis they needed to make it happen.” theguardian.com/world/2021/sep

@terryenglish

but Trump was right about Afghanistan. he got the process started and I praise him for it. no matter what you think of the evacuation, the Taliban was going to be in control. everybody knew it. so you can't now complain about that! ugh.

Hardcore #MAGA folk now bitching about the Taliban running Afghanistan is seriously frustrating. I thought the outsider left and right agreed on ending the forever wars, you lying partisan little shits.

The anti-SJW to right wing pipeline grift is still surprisingly profitable in 2021.

I love that all Gnu.org pages include a Last Modified date at the bottom, makes it very easy to include them as a source. Lots of pages give no indication on what to put in that 'date' field so I usually just take the Copyright string.

I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it's for or against. I'm a human being first and foremost, and as such I am for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole.

@terryenglish Yeah the wide range of supported standards on USB-C without any visual difference (maybe apart from cable thickness), and the challenge with being able to tell which cables support which standards makes it a bigger problem than I ever had with USB-A.

USB-C is annoying. I thought my laptop dock was failing--the screen blanked out whenever it moved on the hinge and it kept getting worse. I initially blamed a weak wire between the screen and base but on a whim replaced the USB-C cable with a new, higher quality version and all the instability went away instantly.
