There are instances (such as mine) which have downvoting disabled, which helps somewhat.

I honestly kind of doubt what you say in your first paragraph. Their country is getting glassed, why would they hold back? Do you think that they’re thinking the US government will stop if they breach a mid sized company? Besides, it’s not a great “warning shot” when most of the general public has no idea what the company is (this is America we’re talking about).

What I think is more likely is that it was found on Shodan (or similar), researched, and since it’s a sizable US company with clear attack vectors, they took action. I don’t think they specifically sought out this company.

Targets like the US government, banks, and tech companies generally have the money to defend against such exploits, to a point. To be clear, I’m not saying that these large organizations do not have exploitable infrastructure (especially the US govt these days). I’m saying that they have the money, employees, and capacity to reduce their attack surfaces, and also have alarming for when something abnormal is detected. It’s a similar strategy for homes and businesses with prominent security cameras in plain view. The security cameras can’t physically stop a burglary, but they do make the location less of an easy target and cause most criminals to find somewhere without them instead.

For a little bit of context and without doxxing myself, I’ve worked for several large fortune 50 companies on the tech side of things, and many of these attacks were caught and dealt with internally without the need to notify anyone in the public. There have been a ton of non-publicly disclosed attacks from state level actors in these organizations, and they’ve only been increasing, even before this illegal war.

Again, not to say that Iran doesn’t have some tricks up their sleeves in regard cyberattacks. I do think that they will eventually breach and damage some huge companies in the near future, I just don’t think that this was any type of warning shot.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe the Canadian one is even more broad. There’s nothing in it that seems to say that the relatives need to be alive, nor is there anything saying how many generations you can go back.

Edit:

“There’s no limit on how many generations you can go back, as long as you can prove it,” Fultz said.

So, if this goes back all the way to the colonies, then I probably can apply, since my great-great-great grandfather was born in Quebec. So long has his birth record still counts (it was logged in a church’s record book)

Impeached maybe, but I doubt he’d have been convicted and removed.

They launched it with a rootkit which conflicted with Riot’s rootkit, then they later implemented micro transaction popups a couple of months later. It’s no wonder to actual consumers as to why their player numbers plummeted.

Yeah, they’re just a prick who can’t understand that people are trapped here. They cannot understand that the billionaire class intentionally trapped the lower (and much of the middle) class, and think that everyone here is perfectly content with what’s happening. So much for class solidarity, funny that they call themselves a leftist.

They’d rather see the lower class either get murdered one by one in the streets (because unless there’s millions of us at once, that’s what will happen). They haven’t thought very far ahead, and for some reason they think that if the government cracks down on us that it’ll cause the collapse of the US. I don’t think that’s true, and in fact, I think it would only give the feds a tighter grip and allow them to fight additional illegal wars.

It’s interesting to see them be happy that their supposed fellow leftists are losing their right to vote. Not just happy, in fact… they want left leaning voters to fear voting. Just like Trump and the GOP. Funny how that works.

Agreed, but I think most of the Americans here on the fediverse aren’t the ones that need to hear that.

My flight tomorrow should be interesting…

They just replied:

What gave you the idea that this was a full rewrite? I moved things around with AI and added postgres support for the queries. Nobody has ever reviewed and tested anything more thoroughly than I did with this branch.

You are twisting what it actually is. You are assuming something that is not true.

This makes me think that they didn’t review or test it at all, lmao

Huh? Where? And how could support of these bills be tied to ‘llm bad’?

I don’t expect to retire.

Not by choice, if that wasn’t clear.

us-east, classic

It gives Assistant (to the) Regional Manager vibes

Probably caused by slop generators again I’m guessing

Don’t remind me…

That’s a first, lol.

Jesus Christ that’s a lotta dough

This is the twelfth cm0002 account that I’m blocking. They don’t just repost stuff from ml (this has been posted to at least 5 communities on various instances), and they have dozens of accounts that they switch between to evade user blocks. They think that you must see their effortless reposts, and that otherwise you should block their dozens of accounts. They’re entitled and spammy.

Despite signing it, Newsom issued a statement urging the legislature to amend the law before its effective date, citing concerns from streaming services and game developers about “complexities such as multi-user accounts shared by a family member and user profiles utilized across multiple devices.”

Then why the fuck did you sign it if it wasn’t ready and needed amendments? Is this what you’re going to do as president too?

Rhetorical, of course. Note how he doesn’t say he disagrees with the bill, just that it needed to consider family devices.

If this is who wins the primary, we are done. We’re basically already done, for sure, but him winning the primary would be the final nail in the coffin.

Wrongful detention sounds familiar
