We gotta stop calling it a presidency. It’s an authoritarian oligarchy not a presidency. Let’s get terminology right so the minority of literate maga retards keep reading it until their 1 brain cell clicks and understands the long words.

100% agreed but for the short term I’d rather ensure I don’t starve when I’m older than like Musks pockets with my social security payment

Wow lot of tech illiterate people in this thread. Jesus Christ what a waste of time

At this point it sucks but wish we could just opt out and put that same amount towards a private retirement account. That way at least a group of braindead inbred sister-fucker cultists living off welfare, bud light, and racism can’t fuckup my retirement plans because a Russian plant at their favorite news slop feed told them it’s good for the price of eggs. Jesus Christ are trumpers retarded

Don’t you know the world is Europe and America and “secluded tribes in Africa” only. This guy is running on pure vibes lol

Okay you’re still projecting American sensibility on the rest of the world … what you’re saying is a vibe and not objective reality.

If you want to launch into a completely different and separate conversation about safety and street legality of the cybertruck here we can but the short of it is - I agree that swastikar shouldn’t be road legal.

HOWEVER, your initial claim was about how the design should not be recognizable under a tarp and that it’s a bad design if it is. That’s just objectively false.

It’s not an IT fix for HR problem. It’s literally just a best practice in IT security and has absolutely nothing to do with people. It’s a priciple of least required access. It’s not just for website filters, it applies to all aspects of security. In this case, it’s to prevent fishy websites being visited by accident - for example your finger slips and you misspell a company website address and all of a sudden it redirects you to a phishing version of Microsoft SSO login portal you always use to sign in to work. You didn’t notice it and you input credentials compromising your system.

These websites are rampant, constantly finding new ways to social engineer ways for people to accidentally visit them and can’t be added to a filter as fast as they pop up. That’s why you block by default. It’s a lot easier to make a list of websites required for your work than to exclude every potentially harmful website that’s getting generated magnitudes faster than any internal company portal.

This is a very simple example of applying the “least privilege” security principle. It’s akin to you not leaving your front door open and unlocked just in case one of your friends drops by, but instead giving the friend a set of keys and locking your door.

I should note that I don’t think that’s what musk is doing to our government but since you seemed to have misunderstood what the security principle is actually meant for I wanted to add some context.

I find it so hard to have good messaging on this topic because we first have to convince half this country that helping others is a virtue not a weakness. How do we convince a deeply selfish population that helping neighbors and keeping our nation healthy and educated are not “communist plots to make everyone poor” but just basics of a successful society. I can argue politics all day but once someone thinks empathy is a weakness or a sin, I just don’t know what to say anymore. We need a fundamental societal shift and that has to start locally I think.

Just your average extortion scam ran at country wide scale. The motivator is literally pay or die… that’s just mafia with extra steps.

Again we’re just over generalizing for no reason. A large part of what? America? I don’t think the trends here are the same exact thing as mainland china or Africa my dude. You can’t find that moment in history at all because you’re just projecting an America/western Europe centric view of the world onto the entire world’s population.

Usually I’d let this go but by all principles of design and all historic reality you’re just wrong. You want “optimum shape” wtf are you even talking about? Optimum for what? You talking aerodynamics? Because newsflash, check last 30 years of F1 with as optimized aero as it gets and it’s a spec car … yet they still have brilliant unique and recognizable designs. Idk what a designer did to you to be so salty about this but you’re just wrong and it’s a very weird hill to dig yourself onto

Okay if it’s due to porn than why has this trend been cyclical and dates back to ancient Egypt at least? There’s evidence of people shaving their pubes in the Roman times as well. It’s maybe come back in style because people saw it in porn but that’s just a trigger not really an explanation given the historic context

Restricting websites and whitelisting the ones you’re supposed to have access to is literally like one of the fundamental rules of it security. What are you talking about?

I don’t think this particular case was about security but pretending that block-by-default is not a good security practice is dishonest.

That’s part of why trump got elected lol. Rather than trying to fix the issues while retaining some level of government, some people were like “let’s have a brutal authoritarian dictatorship and change things for the worse. That will show democrats!” Meanwhile nobody votes in the primaries or their local elections

That’s the same as 2nd option

Because they make the product worse to gate working features behind a paywall without spending development time and money. It’s the opposite of innovation, it’s going backwards. The parasite class (investors) reward that behavior with more investment because now the company has increased profits by selling the working used-to-be-free features at a premium. They couple that with buybacks and layoffs to juice the stock price … and then discard the husk of a company and start a new one

Same shit?

If republicans want to root out fraud … as is often said “suicide is always an option”. That’d be the best way to both drain the swamp and root out corruption by republicans lol
