Cardiovascular disease is a bitch, eh?

Thinks that water destroys magnets.

No no, you see: water is 2 parts hydrogen and 1 part oxygen. Hydrogen is a key component of nukes, and nukes destroy magnets. Trump was telling us in code, because the baby-eating Dems are looking for an excuse to have him replaced with a body double so he can’t give obvious messages.

A reminder: Google added support for and then subsequently dropped JPEGXL support in Chrome. Fuck Google.

It seems pretty obvious to me at this point that the DNC would rather lose than have an actual progressive win.

It’s not in their interests to let a progressive win. Just like their counterpart, the DNC takes a shit ton of bribery donations from corporations lobbyists. Bringing in a progressive who would reform the system or push back against pro-corporate policies is biting the hands that feed them.

I’m mad that Biden and the Democratic leadership seems to have put their own interests above the interest of the party people.

The interests of the party is the interests of the rich :)

The system is set up in a way that the only viable options are between two evils, unfortunately. Under a FPTP system where the only good options are minority parties that won’t win a single seat in their districts, you’re left with the choice of voting for the lesser evil, or voting for your morals but increasing the risk of the greater evil winning.

It’s a no-win situation.

The Democrat party is just as corrupt and bought out by corporations as the Republicans are, but at least they aren’t trying to get the country to circle the drain as quickly.

You have to pass new laws to match the digital world.

They did—it’s called the DMCA, and it’s working exactly as they intended it to.

The problem is that they’re trying to frame it as a better replacement for sudo when it’s really not.

In some respects, it’s safer by not using a setuid binary. In other respects, it massively increases the surface area by relying on the correctness of three separate daemons: systemd, dbus, and polkitd. If any one of those components are misconfigured, you risk an unauthorized user gaining root privileges.

With sudo, the main concern is the sudo process being exploited through memory safety bugs since it runs at root automatically.

Don’t get me wrong, sudo has a lot of stupid decisions and problems. There’s a ton of code in sudo for features that almost nobody uses, and there’s bound to be bugs in there somewhere. It needs to be replaced with something simpler, but run0 is not that.

I believe that’s called “rules for the LGBT, but not for me.”

What the fuck does it take to get bail denied in Texas?

Threatening a cop as a minority will do it. Outside of that, probably nothing.

A better implementation than run0.

Being pedantic, but…

The amd64 ISA doesn’t have native 256-bit integer operations, let alone 512-bit. Those numbers you mention are for SIMD instructions, which is just 8x 32-bit integer operations running at the same time.

If you’re willing to admit that you’re denigrating an operating system for having the same flaws as the one you prefer and are being a massive hypocrite in doing so, sure.

Only slightly related, but here’s the compiler flag to disable an arbitrary 2GB limit on x86 programs.

Finding the reason for its existence from a credible source isn’t as easy, however. If you’re fine with an explanation from StackOverflow, you can infer that it’s there because some programs treat pointers as signed integers and die horribly when anything above 7FFFFFFF gets returned by the allocator.

You’re thinking of operating systems that give unrestricted access to all parts of a computer that aren’t memory or the camera. That would everything¹, actually.

¹ There’s also Linux with properly-configured SELinux, but good luck with that on a distro that isn’t focused on opsec.

That sounds extremely unsettling to visit. If I had other “tourists” blatantly watching my every move as I walked through a museum, I would want to get as far away from that place as humanly possible.

That said, Scientologists are all over other parts of L.A. including Hollywood offering “free personality tests”

It really makes you wonder what other kind of insane, duplicitous shit they would have pulled to recruit new members had things went differently with their public image.

It’s an atrocity they voluntold Isaac Hayes to quit voice acting on South Park. Chef was a staple of the show.

Sounds about right for Scientology. I’m quite surprised they don’t have their poster boy on display with the rest of their indoctrinees, however.

Can we add an eleventh commandment?

Thou shall not entwine church and state.
