it would be cool if there were a public wiki for how to lobotomize modern cars.
like:
software to enter dealer mode to reset or disable location history,
the CAN message to disable a biometric / tracking system,
how to physically unplug the 5g radio / antenna,
remove all phone contact info
Would be nice if NHTSA spoke about road safety as clearly as Jalopnik.

#Trump is not only saying he only needs Christians to vote this once, because then he’ll ‘fix it’, he’s also saying people don’t need to vote at all for him to win.
He’s saying the election will be determined by something other than votes…the crooked officials he’s already got on board to certify the results.
He’s not even bothering to hide his fascism.
Rachel Maddow rounds up instances in which Donald Trump not only assures his supporters that if he is elected they won't have to vote in the future, but also that even for this 2024 election he does not need votes.MSNBC.com (MSNBC)
Just waiting to see what happens if Republican voting officials refuse to certify Democrat wins doesn’t seem like a great idea given Trump’s previous. How else can the integrity of the election be protected? Can it be done from within the US given the Supreme Court is also compromised?

@revk and many of those places will conveniently include bonus as something to be considered in the overall package.
Either it's a bonus or it's pay. Problem when it is pay is that reducing it makes people really mad.
I wonder if pc power supplies are able to taste different flavours of power being fed to them.
Maybe like Spain has a specific high frequency ripple voltage that makes it spicy or sweden has a very low .02hz +/-1v fluctuation that has a calming effect on capacitors.
(I am hoping nothing goes wrong plugging in my PC to Sweden's grid XD)
A "qualia" I do not like is when you search Google for something and your first result is a forum or Reddit thread on the exact subject asking your exact question and the top response is very abrasively going uhhhhh, why didn't you just Google for it??"
No, john
You are the Google

Much of frontend security design is hostile in a way that reduces security.
Most people doing security design are bad at what they do.
I recently ran into an old pro-planet t-shirt from
the early '80s – over 40 years ago we knew,
we even yelled and screamed and signed petitions
and tried to get that difference made
What is wrong with people?
One of the downstream effects of the AI boom that I hadn't really thought about is that sites are starting to introduce anti-crawling tech as standard, because they don't want all their bandwidth going to training chatgpt7.
This is going to make life harder for people who run benevolent scrapers. How many sites are going to be blocking the wayback machine now, just because it looks too much like an AI scraperbot?
I'm blocking those AI bots but intentionally exempt the wayback machine.
To me, the issue is not the crawlers themselves, nor bandwidth nor content. The issue I have with GPTBot and Facebook's bots is they come as a flock, to the extent that my server can't handle. They are rude and never care to learn how search bots behave.
"Men are afraid that women will laugh at them. Women are afraid that men will kill them."
We bring up the Atwood quote all the time to explain why women are careful when rejecting men, but we seem to have forgotten the first part
*This* is why the right aren't bothered when we use adjectives that suggest we fear them, but are melting down over being called 'weird'
The thought of being laughed it is a fascist's kryptonite

I cannot believe I’m still having to say this five years into this pandemic, but COVID doesn’t make an exception when you take a mask off inside to eat or drink.
Like what exactly do people think this is?
There isn’t like a hydration / nourishment transmission exception field.
Hello Britishers; remember to wear sunscreen!
I saw lots of people going bright pink yesterday. Even if our weather is nice and mild, it’s still the sun, and burning is no fun.
Chap at FWA24!

Just realised that on Mastodon, boosting *is* the algorithm.
There's no code trying to cleverly show me stuff it reckons I'd be into, based on what my contacts are into, instead my contacts are saying "I like this, I bet my contacts would like it too" and that is way smarter than any algorithm.
Thank you, boosters!
It's jarring to think that we've only had homosexuality be fully legal in most of the UK since about 2003, and the first gay marriage in 2014.
To underscore that, it's only been about 10 years since you could say gay people have had comparable rights to straight couples.
And we're still fighting for the right to be who we are, and for our trans friends to do the same.
Would it be such bad idea if #Biden were as his last gift to democracy request assistance from the UN with election monitoring?
When #Trump says he doesn’t need votes…I think so.
‘United Nations electoral assistance is provided only at the specific request of the Member State concerned or based on a mandate from the Security Council or General Assembly’
