That's the Sinclair Broadcast Group forcing the news orgs they own to read from the same script. They also had "must run" news segments that include conservative commentary. That doesn't mean Russia isn't a threat t

We set up a pleroma instance on OpenBSD a while back. It works pretty well. Kind of a pain to get set up due to version mismatches of elixir and Erlang and what not, but it wasn't too painful. I imagine it's a lot easier on a supp

Note the .004 overall "Symptomatic Case Fatality Ratio". Quite a few conservative outlets are indicating a true IFR of .26% based on this, instead of the .4 - .6% a lot of recent studies have indicated. Interesting stuff. I think

I'm not sure this is the case anymore. McConnell and Trump have been rapidly filling the courts with young, right leaning justices. See: https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2019/02/28/thanks-tru..

I'd argue he's narcissistic and his motives may have both been self-serving, but also not strictly financial. I'd also argue he probably doesn't have the foresight to predict weather or not this would end up being good o

Even if they had 30% immunity, that still leaves the majority of the population exposed. I'm sure 30% would be very much preferable (if it's even true), but probably not good enough to allow things like concerts or maybe even sit

That's super interesting. It's hard to imagine what a legitimately authoritative anti-disinformation campaign would look like. Back when Operation INFEKTION was big, in the 80's iirc, the U.S. Department of State was involved

Use Alpine or something then. I use Alpine as well on a server, OpenBSD on a server, slackware on a server, slackware on my laptop... There's some options. We even use Devuan to host OP's essay, although we'll eventually move

Slackware doesn't use it, and Patrick Volkerding recently got a Patreon account set up so Slackware 15.0 or 14.3 will hopefully be out soonish with updated packages. I'm writing this on 14.2 and have been running it since it came

I'd say software doesn't always win out on it's merits, there's almost definitely some social aspects regarding what does and does not get adopted. I do agree the commercial interests probably played the largest role, th

In some cases it can work remarkably well, or so I've been told. The more people who reach out, the more fearful said rep will be of backlash.

For me, protecting people from themselves should never be a policy priority. I have struggled with depression, probably still do, but I genuinely don't think the ideal solution to gun related deaths is to take away the right to own a g

There's reviews, seller ratings, and often test results from some EU lab or via store bought tests. It's kinda like amazon and could probably be gamed but it's probably less likely whatever you're buying will be deadly.

You'd need a longer term study to see if the group's recieving it are better off than a control group after x years, assuming that's the specific thing you want out of this study.

Agreed, to an extent. It's incredibly frustrating for things as small as a paraphernalia charge that was thrown out ending up on a local news site, especially for employability reasons. It'd be nice if there were a way to redact n

Wordpress plugins get injected with crap all the time, same with joomla, pretty much any site running a super old php version with their CMS, etc.

I work for a competitor and we definitely do not do this, so I don't think it's ubiquitous at any rate.

I always recommend namecheap when I can. Even though I technically work for a competitor lol. They're working on U2F: https://www.namecheap.com/blog/true-totp-2fa-and-u2f-are-com...

Ya, I've got a CS degree and I'm slowly learning web dev. Learning JS is really nice, but I feel like I need to know so many frameworks and other things, not to mention algorithms, to land an actually decent job. Idk how accurate

The senate site has had SSL issues for me for years. It's very weird. If you go to: http://www.senate.gov/senators/leadership.htm and try SSL, it redirects to http. Strange. Like it's not set up recursively o

The claim is that it does change behavior, but only temporarily and it doesn't change the culture in a positive way / doesn't motivate people. It ends up feeling like a way of manipulating. That being said, according to this

Set up nextcloud on my home network and share stuff with friends and family that way, never got into federation but that's pretty awesome! Especially since it supports encryption and privacy in a pretty easy to use way.
