  • Palantir may be engaging in a coordinated disinformation campaign by astroturfing these news-related subreddits: r/world, r/newsletter, r/investinq, and r/tech_news

  • It'll be interesting too as federations are a bit of a wild-west right now with some domains dropping off or being federated, while others may still be created in the future

  • Hell yeah. We've even got people who voted Trump despite illegal immigrants in their family, or being married to one because: "he's only going to deport the bad ones".

    There's also people who themselves came in the same way but eventually did get legal standing/citizenship yet are in full support of what's going on now.

  • Watching their recent coverage of LA and NY I was kinda astounded by the slant on it.

  • She's not wrong, but also not 100% right. Racism plays a part, but there's also a good helping of "I've got mine" along with a whole lot of money tired into the military-industrial complex

  • That sounds kinda cool. I'll have to check it out. It's kinda hard sometimes to push FOSS stuff in a largercorporate environment but this looks like something I could recommend/build for small-mid private SOHO clients.

  • We've had the same thing with politicians in Canada. It's gone from "he's an asshole" to "but he's OUR asshole".

    I think congratulation politicians - whether you live them or not - when they do good things is well warranted. Keep in mind that while many couldn't give a shit about you or I, they DO like ego-stroking and attention so positive reinforcement can actually work well.

  • Honestly I'd rather less of him being f'ed by the bear and more demonstrating how he's fucking the country while calling it patriotism

  • 'Arrest me': California's governor unfazed by threats of arrest from Trump administration official

  • No, the "well they're both corrupt/bad so fuck it" without acknowledging that bad/corrupt is a scale not a binary is how we got here.

  • Used to run OpenVPN. Tried Wireguard and the performance was much better, although lacking some of the features some might need/want fit credential-based logins etc

  • I didn't really get the allure of it TBH. For most home-based nerds a simple Wireguard host (or OpnSense, OpenWRT etc running such) should be fine, and there are better options for commercial from better-known vendors in the network security space

  • California Gov. Gavin Newsom is floating a federal tax boycott

  • Realistically though, if you're not a f***ing moron and don't have a criminal record, it's not hard to get your PAL and the ability to have long-guns. It's a day-course.

    The RPAL is a bit more work and more restrictions in terms of transport etc, but it's not necessary for most people that would just want to go hunting or target shooting (except target shoots with handguns).

    IMO - as somebody who has a PAL - the rules around responsible ownership in Canada are pretty reasonable. Some of the recent stuff over particular firearms is dumb especially with the lacklustre enforcement against trafficking etc, but stuff around safe storage and use 100% makes sense to me whereas the "public carry" stuff in the US is kinda horrifying to me.

  • Honestly other than a fingerprint lock, I've found the apps suck compared to just a browser on a PC anyhow. Half the apps could just be webpages, and a bunch of those are just wrappers to a web rendering layer anyhow

    Just woke up vomiting, choking on vomit, not drunk or on drugs, heart beating slightly off. Is this ER worthy?

  • This was me when I had Norovirus, though the puking was preceded by firehose-level shits until I took an Imodium, after which it switched ends before deciding on some rather unpleasant alternating events

  • I can actually believe that the two would get in a fight about who gets to fuck us in which end. Their narcissistic personalities are kinda exclusive and I'm surprised they've gotten along so far. Even in the earlier days Trump didn't look like he enjoyed sharing the limelight
