  • Well the original title is "Video gamer Electronic Arts to be bought in largest-ever private equity buyout valued at $55 billion" Which only points to "wow this is large exchange of capital"

    And the text of the article is just investor-centric propaganda like"PIF, which was currently the largest insider stakeholder in Electronic Arts, will be rolling over its existing 9.9% investment in the company. "

    or meaningless puff like"The IPO came seven years after EA was founded by former Apple employee William “Trip” Hawkins, who began playing analog versions of baseball and football made by “Strat-O-Matic” as a teenager during the 1960s"

    Ultimately concluding with "By going private, EA will be able to retool operations without worrying about market reactions."

    "Hickey is unsure if the transaction is in shareholders’ best interest."

    “The financial backing and resources of the investor consortium should enable EA to increase its focus on long-term growth opportunities that may have been viewed as too risky or expensive as a public company,”

    In other words no mention whatsoever of the ethical, cultural consideration nor even touching of the largest stakeholders in the transaction, the IP License Holders and their interest in allowing a foreign enemy nation administrative access to their computer kernel beyond their own user privileges.

    This is nothing less than dereliction of duty by this "apnews" company, obviously misdirecting the attention of the reader and quieting their non-sense inapplicable fears such as return on investment levels for the C-Suite and the interest of "Freedom Capital Markets".

    These rootless bugpersons are colonizing our attention, spamming their virulent thoughts to distracts us from real, imminent dangers while our hostile leaders are selling us out to the highest bidder, instead of being lined up against a brick wall next to a deep communal ditch.

  • I use windows 10 and debian 13 on proxmox 9 !

  • ? I see this another post in the community with the same article

    No, that post you mention, was posted 2 hours ago

    my post https://lemmy.ml/post/36863093/21361452

    Was posted 5 hours ago and came first

    Certainly, the true reason of the deletion is that my title was too evocative of the underlying consequences of this purchase.Rather than the establishment-spun neutral titled crafted my the mind washing specialists at the pseudo-journalistic outfit of "apnews" Who did not seek to cause trouble for shareholders.

    I'm sure if pushed the moderators would have rules-based legalese with completely above board reasonnable reasons for the deletion of my post, it's not even worth asking what they were. they even have catch-all overbroad rules for this exact purpose anyway. We live under the constant crush of censorship even in these nominally decentralized spaces.

    A great fire is well over due.

  • They want you to use Oracle ZFS instead, they have a lot of money riding on this.

  • Well, it's a driver and it runs in the kernel with system level privileges. I imagine as long as it remains installed the computer will be vulnerable to whatever is in there. And it's undecypherable compiled code so we can't tell what it is doing. I suspect shady bits will use the TPM cryptoprocessor to hide any malicious code so we'll never know what is in there.

    Even if you uninstall it, it just says it is uninstalled but it's not like you can verify if it really uninstalled it or just renamed the files to something innocuous.

    I will re-install windows entirely as if it had been infected by malware, and I just hope there's a way in Steam to identify all EA games and block them from every installing even by accident

  • Society doesn't want to punish when two girls do it, as long as still do it with boys.

    But if two boys do it, well, they used to diagnose them with mental illness and chemically castrate them if not jail or even shoot them.

    So, it's understandable some of this patterns remains, that if you do it just ONCE, it's still a scarlett letter on you, you are "an admitted homosexual now" you can not longer take it back. Don't worry, you won't be treated poorly anymore for it, unless cultural attitudes toward the practice shift again, but you can't "go back in the closet" as it were.

  • Oh no, you are mentally mutilating me !

    BTW, later BASIC dropped line numbers...I wonder if ABAP has line numbers though, it wouldn't surprise me

  • I told my psychologist and she said it's "paranoid delirium disorder type persecution" and gave me strong anti-psychotic pills. That there was no conclusive proof that kernel anti-cheat code contained any malicious instructions, even though bits of it are encrypted and run inside the TPM chip so it can't even be decompiled what they're doing in there. And the telemetry they're sending to the mothership has not been proven to send anything but anonymized summaries of the information collected on the computer.

  • Memes aren't just "image macros"

  • Incredible opportunity, just buying respectable root access as kernel anti-cheat to hundreds of millions of computers world wide. This is the intelligence service haul of the century !

  • I remember, it was really terrible, we had severely regimented time schedules controlled by clocks and bell. We had to go there with hours-long bus rides. I remember watching the clock, watching every second tick while one person was talking to everyone about really profoundly boring things which they could not and would not articulate the relevance of beyond an immediate examination and far of idea of "the labout marketplace" in which we would all compete against one another to avoid homelessness and death. I could read on the computer at home about the things they were saying, it was obvious at the time this information would have no practical use whatsoever to anyone but I could not imagine an alternative so I kept going until they gave me some papers after 13 years of this. Of course now I understand why, we were doing appearance of productivity, as training for our future as obedient workers who would do what they were told. The subject of the matter was not the point, it was being moulded into docility. This is why there was no clarity as to what use the information lectured about would have. It only needed to appear to be productive and useful, it did not have to be relevant or interesting as we were a captive audience, fearful of this homelessness situation we would find ourselves in if we disobeyed. This was the social stalemate that kept us from being sent to the mines IMMEDIATELY, we were supposed to be grateful and happy that we didn't have to work in the field, picking rocks and vegetables in the field with the undocumented immigrants.

    We were a captive audience, this is why it didn't have to be interesting, that was not the point, the teacher tried really hard, I could see it hurt them to be our jailors, they tried to make it fun, but we knew we were in prison even if we couldn't articulate it. The teaching prison guards had their empathy eventually dried out and shrivel, they tried spending their own money to make it tolerable for us and they were met with disinterested ungratefulness, no recognition from us nor the bosses. The cheerful colourful decorations of our jail cells somehow made things worse, like something was wrong with US for being unhappy with the situation.

    PXE Imaging server?

    Jump
  • When I last tried to setup openwrt+iPXE I kept ending up on their forum but I don't get what are they actually for ? Is that just a netbootable disk imaging thing ? Live OS netbooting ? Installer netbooting ?

    Is it like iVentoy the non-open source netbootable version of ventoy ?

  • my nesting partner just licks my teeth clean

  • I have to agree, I could not justify it to myself.If I were reduced to begging.As someone infected with toxic masculinity, I am supposed to be self-sufficient and "a provider of surplus value"So in the face of this failure, to at least maintain and defend a cardboard box home from the attacks of the policeI would discontinue my homeostatic metabolic processes.I can tell from the statistics that many people come to the same conclusion.And when not enough people come to that conclusion, our numbers get thinned out by states who engineer a world war so as to cull the excess human population.This is how a State maintains order and our physical security, you see, they are doing this for our own good

  • Makes sense, couple first times they use the weapon, they are clumsy, hamfisted about it and they leave obvious clues of inauthenticity. But each time they learn how to blend in and become more and more subtle until it becomes impossible to prove that is not authentic, that something isn't "happenning".

    And when the nuance is so blurred anyone trying to point to it, gets diagnosticated"paranoid delirium disorder type persecution"And given anti-psychotic pills until they agree, it was just a delusion,"nothing ever happens actually doctor"

  • I hadn't made the association from playing the original in 1997 in fullscreen at 800x600.But seeing this early build in 320x240, it's obvious.How the gun is held and the colour of nearly every wall gives it away

  • So, bots automatically detect the sensitivity for emotional response in humans, then they repeat and amplify this response toward sensitive issues until it becomes a movement, a roiling positive feedback loop or anger

  • So it was a rip off of 007 on N64 ?

  • The only counter we currently have to state power is leveraging other states, getting them to fight one another until they're so damage that they let go of their fascistic plans to enslave and tag the entire population. Russia isn't going to politely send delegate to advocate against total state surveillance, they're doing it, every state is turning fasch and doing it. They are to embolden, to empowered and they don't respect of fear the population.

    The only way to counter this trend is by distracting them with an existential crisis. They need "something" to save us from, when we are too safe and they are too powerful, they start treating us, as the enemy, as their pets, as their farm animal, cattle, we can't stop them doing that but we can send them to clash against enemy states to dissipate their violent, dominating, malignant energy

  • SAP anti-competitiveness mainly steams from how twisted they are that they mutilate the mind of their users, making them unable to use other software.

    In this way this is similar to the BASIC programming language, but SAP ABAP language is even moreso.

    Here is a quote about this

    "It is practically impossible to teach good programming to students that have had a prior exposure to BASIC: as potential programmers they are mentally mutilated beyond hope of regeneration."
