Tell that to my mother. Stopped maturing sometime in her teens and never started again. Her immaturity is the reason she wasn’t present at my wedding (her eldest son and first of the children to get married) and why she has not contact from me at all.

Definitely try watermelon, it’s a nice simple flavor that doesn’t get too boring.

Miami nights is so good. Haven’t tried health potion, but I’m a big fan of watermelon and blue bomber slushie

Which flavor of GFuel are we rocking tonight?

That feels immoral if not illegal

Can someone help me? Is Mr WordPress just snorting a shitton of coke?

I can understand the frustration but I don’t see that as much when I’m playing more indie games. Are you playing more quintuple a titles, if so have you considered going for more independent stuff instead? I could give some recommendations

Set up a redirect for all Texas IP addresses. Point to Fuck Texas.

Not sure which country you live in, but renter’s insurance covered a stolen item for me when I was renting. Worth a check if you have a similar thing.

I would pay money to keep Firefox foss for other people who can’t afford to do so.

Catch me up on the drama please?

Wrong. Gimme a black woman to vote for and I’ll do it.

I’m pissed because we pissed away the emcumbant advantage but what’s done is done, here’s hoping we get to celebrate the first female president instead of orange Hitler.

Gotcha gotcha, I’ve had to go from zero to hero more times than I can count. It was a mandate at the start ups where I was the sole DevOps guy. It’s been a boon at my large well established company. I’d say I’m not a fan but first I did it I got an unexpected raise so life was good

Homie, I work in IT. I graduated from college with a degree in network security. So please consider that experience as your read my response.

This is a problem caused by companies putting in the minimum of effort to secure their systems and no effort to have a valid server back up strategy.

I’ll try and keep things high level since I don’t know if you’re in the field or not but you sound like you aren’t. In short, a driver (something low level used for an operating system to interact with a piece of hardware usually) got released which was full of bunk data. That caused a blue screen of death. This is a fixable situation you need to reboot your computer into a mode called “safe mode” and delete the bunk driver.

That’s not the problem though, the problem is when you use another piece of security software called bitlocker to enceypt your enterprise equipment AND servers. You can’t reboot into safe mode without a decryption key which most companies store on a piece of server software (called active directory) on a server … which is also using both crowdstrike and bitlocker.

Your data is inaccessible and the best option is to restore from a backup which as we’re seeing, few people have.

This isn’t a cyber attack. This is human incompetence and business greed.

I have contact with someone trying to float the idea because she doesn’t understand tech.

To her, it’s because it’s the biggest IT outage ever and it happened 6 days after the failure to assassinate Trump.

Wasn’t the failed assassin a registered Republican?

Rock on, thanks!

Is there a good/decent android app? I’m game to give things a try particularly because fuck lemmygrad jr (lemmy.ml)

That’s a fair question.

In consideration, take the Jim Crow laws from the USA. These laws enforced racial segregation and allowed for abject racism and abhorrent conditions/treatment of black people. In short, they supported racism.

Now one could say “but the people were the ones to carry it out” which sure, but then we might as well start asking ourselves how much government really matters and other philosophical questions. I don’t think the people are innocent, but to focus on your question, that’s an example of how political policy and laws can support things. The laws enable the legal environment, the people then carry it out.

Gotcha gotcha
