The only crime he committed was not bribing the Trump administration enough to stay off the anti-trust radar. I hope they burn it all to the ground.

Thought Police.

Distribution, decentralization… those ideas only serve to add unnecessary complexity to a sensitive and critical infrastructure. Instead of tweeting the baby with the bathwater, let’s work toward making these institutions not rely on or be beholden to governments. Anything else is a poor man’s Band-Aid to the problem.

FWIW, I agree with your concerns, but not the proposed solutions. Regardless, these are the types of discussions we all should be having for our critical infrastructure.

Decentralizing a foundation such as CVE would do more harm than good. For things like git or the fediverse it makes perfect sense, but the last thing I want something like the CVE to be is fragmented. We need a single source of truth for this.

Now setting up a non-profit foundation and cutting dependence with governments is a good thing, but it’s not the same as decentralized.

We’re cooked if there’s tariffs on JS imports.

When you use the right gear (e.g. hearing protrction, gloves, STEEL TOE SHOES (for you crazies wearing flip flops)) power washing is mesmerizing; especially with the vibration from the water flow.

Very relaxing; very demure.

This would require a lot more than 15 minutes to file a proper report…. All of this would easily add up to 2 hours or more…

Tell you what: log the time it takes, and I will personally pay you $60/hour for your time to make a proper report.

And no, I’m not being sarcastic.

I’m not a fan of LEO, BUT at the same time doing nothing should not be an option. What I mean by that is that Johnny Law should still be contacted and a report filed (at the very least). Even if they do not follow up on it, that’s on them and not us (the fediverse).

That’s rich coming from the ghost fucker.

Yep, you are 💯 correct that this is what they did. Regardless of industry, is why unions are so very important. “At Will” employment is too easily abused, and even if this could somehow be considered a wrongful termination (ANAL, but protesting a company’s social-political viewpoints is not protected like gender, age, race, etc are) it can be costly and time-consuming to fight it in courts by yourself.

Hoarding and not sharing is the real shame in times of need.

There is nothing wrong in with being prepared for any contingency; especially when you feel you can see it coming. Even if the extra food, batteries, or water only lasts for a short time, that’s a short time you didn’t have to worry about those things. When you can extend someone else’s peace of mind, even just a bit, then all the more better.

It is a tragedy that it takes such travesty for people to be human with each other.

As a Mac user, I like Time Machine for backups. It’s not perfect, but it gets the job done. There is a Linux version.

Nb. I’ve not used this particular software, so YMMV.

Lossless JPEG would be amazing.

I shouldn’t be surprised there is an act allowing Big Brother to surreptitiously request data on reporters. Dubs and Dick really stuck it to us over with the Patriot Act and everything that followed.

I don’t see why this doesn’t constitute a constitutional crisis. This is exactly why there is a first amendment.

Is that what we’re calling coke these days?

There’s always !actually_infuriating@lemmy.world

But yeah, I’d be livid. Did you catch them in the act?

I imagine he’s looking at a payments table where there is a non-unique key to relate a citizen to each payment.
