OnlyFans has steadfastly maintained that it is not explicitly a pornographic site. I imagine if a ruling went out that every tipped interaction on the site was considered pornography, they would step in on behalf of the content creators to try to whittle that down to case-by-case rulings, for no other reason than PR alone.
Tipping into the silly now…
I can’t wait until someone issues a FOIA for the deliberations over whether certain things are pornographic or not.
Well first, I was on drugs at the time.But second, you don’t think that wide nose with the flared nostrils, the hooded eyelids, and the smarmy smile that screams “I have no respect for humanity” makes them resemble each other?
I feel like I would empathize with the situation you describe, but I’m so cynical, I just imagine the father telling the frightened child that the friendly ice cream man was hiding a terrible secret - that he is a criminal and was here illegally; that he is taking jobs from people who need the work, and will then use the nearest white homeless person as an example of the type of person who could be working, in clean clothes, and not struggling on the streets if only we facilitate this vision of a white Christian ethno-state.
And while that narrative is complete and utter nonsense, it is a common one, and it’s one that impressionable children believe and adopt as a core part of their worldview. Many never recover from that intellectual poisoning.
And here’s the FBI’s web page over it, which notes they diverted resources to other investigations in 2016, but specifically names McCoy as a favored suspect: D.B. Cooper Hijacking
As far as updates go? I only have sardonic comments about what the FBI is to these days. But I don’t think they are going to work on this one anytime soon.
Everybody hates the government, but that take is not applicable.
Reading the incident report -A privileged user got spearphished into downloading a compromised system administration tool. After the compromised tool was detected by industry standard (and modern) intrusion detection software and removed, the backfire it installed, which was not fixed, was (eventually) used to install a keylogger. Shortly thereafter, another privileged user had a keylogger installed. Afterward, the harvested credentials were used to create further compromises in their network and to move laterally throughout it.
The age of the equipment or software is not a factor when your admin accounts get compromised. The user that got compromised should have known better, but they literally failed one thing - double checking the veracity of the download website. They didn’t surrender credentials, or fall for any direct attack. It’s not really a government bad, private industry good sort of thing. Heck, if that had happened to a non-admin user, the attack wouldn’t have been possible.
The why is sort of at the limits of my knowledge. I can tell you a ‘close enough’ what, though.
By default, Windows tries to install programs to the program files directory, but that requires admin, which triggers user account control. However, apps that do not require admin to install or run can still be installed to the users profile. Clicking cancel from a UAC prompt will just try to install the program locally instead of for all users.
My assumption is that many system administrators believed UAC was enough, or that programs installing locally (as in, just for that user) and not requiring admin were not a big deal.
Was going to comment at the top level, but I wanted to share my thoughts here.
The OP is a really talented writer (I assume in this day of AI) and their ideas have been pretty top notch, even if they are getting some form of assistance with the writing. I genuinely think once they have a body of work, they should launch a website to monetize their efforts or parlay this into future opportunities. Assuming that’s what they want, anyway. The talent is there.
That’s kind of fucked up if there’s not an indication that it’s a replica. Akin to yelling fire in a theater if someone used one of them maliciously.
Perhaps it could be kind of neat as a curio if it’s a highly engineered/beautiful work of art (that is maybe too expensive to use for malicious ‘jokes’). But I’d still want it to have some sort of indication that folks aren’t getting dosed/they don’t have to trigger a response by your local atomic energy officials.
Editing to add that before I picked Krakatoa (fingers crossed on my inability to predict natural disasters), I actually searched for “disasters with no death toll” to use as an example for a potential model without much success. It is in poor taste and my comments are definitely parody.
This isn’t aimed at Russia or China, whom the article calls out by name.This is a dick measuring contest with Iran and North Korea.
I mean - he made the announcement in South Korea.
Diplomatically, Trump (well, his administration) has stated to learn that befriending and allowing tinpot dictators to humiliate the U.S. is non-viable. So they’ve moved to cold-war era tactics of arms races and implied threats of nuclear holocaust.They, of course, are focusing on smaller nations that while powerful in their own right, aren’t actual threats to the U.S. global hegemony. Not that I support continued U.S. dominance on the world stage, but it’s a weird priority.Maybe by the end of the admin, they’ll be caught up to Clinton, who realized the best way to apply pressure was economically and via international partnerships — assuming the U.S. has an economy and international partnerships to leverage by then.
The social contract is that we do not tolerate intolerance. If someone is intolerant or they tolerate intolerance, they are violating the social contract.
If she’s calling for tolerance of his views (she is), or is clear that she’s tolerant of his views (again, she is), then she’s breaking the social contract.
As his wife, she would know his medical history, and would know if he underwent a personality shift. As a politician, she’s expected to represent all of her constituents and have sound judgement, especially in matters of conflicts of interest.There’s no more story to know or no mitigating factors. Throw the baby out with the bathwater on this one.
The ADHD goblin steals memories, tells me to eat when in bored, tells me that every minor rejection is a major judgement against me, and all the other symptoms I can’t think of right now.
