This is why every JR Engineer I’ve mentored is handed a copy of Sysadmin Code Ethics day one along with a copy of Practice of System and Network Administration.

We really need a more formal process for having the title of engineer and we really need a guild. LOPSA/USENIX and CWA are from what I can tell the closest to having anything. Because eventually some congress person is going to get visited by the good idea fairy and try to come down on our profession. So it’s up to us to get our house in order before they do.

And NextDNS too!!

Fucking poor people!! Have they tried NOT being poor!? Bunch of lazy entitled poors!! /s

So everyone using FF just had to start visiting more .gov websites (using the correct user agent) ?

Agreed. The letter of the law vs the spirt of the law. So legal but not right

People shouldn’t have to not use or rip out their infotainment systems to have privacy. The automakers know that people are just going to take the path of least resistance and know that people aren’t going to read the fine print

That’s pretty neat! I’m not a chemistry expert by any stretch of the imagination, so I’m curious how those salts work. The article does an okay job at explaining it but I’d like more information because it’s super interesting!

Translation: “I totally didn’t piss away $44B on a plaything so I could finally name something x.com. It’s totally not my fault in away shape or form. In fact I was forced to buy it because no one can take a joke. There’s no other possible reason why Tesla is doing poorly other than people not buying them to drive into the an office.”

Also, I’m totally wearing clothes, you’re just not [rich, smart, good] enough to see them."

Meh, realistically I don’t think Jon does it because he needs money.

He seems like the kind of person who does things because it’s the right thing to do. So taking away his platform isn’t going to make him go away or shut him up.

It might take a while for him to get another one but I’m confident this guy will be on his deathbed telling people in power they suck & should do better.

We need more people like him

YW!

Voyager allows you to do that and since it a PWA you can use it and/or install it on any platform. https://vger.app

That’s … actually pretty neat.

Makes a lot of sense given the amount of power needed to run a data centers like that. Definitely cleaner in the long run too.

They’ll still need backup power/generators but they’ll need a lot less of them and they’ll mostly be needed for the nuclear parts.

Meh, I assume I’m always on camera anywhere I’m in public. I don’t like it and I really don’t want to be recorded. I’m also realistic and understand that public spaces are… well public.

I understand privacy fears because there’s nothing stopping someone in my private space from recording me now other than mutual respect and consent. If all it takes is the ease of use of some fashionable frames then it’s time to rethink your relationships.

This also applies to semi-private spaces. So think at the office or a cozy booth in a coffee shop. Assume all public places are recorded (because they often are) and establish boundaries within your relationships.

Fines mean legal for a price and it’s only effective if it costs more to pay it than the profit made from it
