oooh, oooh! I know, I know! biden can just tell the judiciary to go screw itself now that america has a king!

its presidential pokemon and, now that they have trump, they plan on breeding him hard.

looks like the house of saud has placed its bet.

no one is trying to swing them - they are completely lost to rationality. mobilization is the goal and, I can tell you, there is zero fire out there to mobilize an anti-trump turnout.

many may vote for the genocide enabler over the actual clown-fascist, but we are fucked as a country when, in the face of blatant authoritarianism, the best we can put up is biden. un-fucking-real.

?! and this is supposed to be good news? no change against the narcissist, sexual abuser, traitor, convicted career criminal trying to squat in the seat of power that controls one of the most lethal nuclear arsenals?

are you kidding me?! this is what the Democrats are accepting? anyone proclaiming this as positve news is as delusional as the magas, perhaps more so.

I am shocked this had not (yet) been downvoted into oblivion like so many other posts clearly pointing out the obvious path we are on.

anyone blinding cheering this farce on is as complicit as the actual fascists.

no, I don’t have any answers. decades of slow corruption of anything approximating democratic rule have brought us to this point and don’t see a sane path forward.

indeed, but your SSH ports should not be hanging out in the wind for any old IP to hit.

damn, that was rough.

ONE OF US! ONE OF US!

but seriously, modern FOSS distros (yes, debian is modern, damnit!) are amazingly good. you have an exceptionally high probablility of switching and staying switched.

Don’t switch one senile old fuck out with another.

to be fair, Bernie has not lost a single step but, as a pragmatist, I think he would say his most effective position moving forward is in the senate.

I think a shit flinging monkey is a step up from drumpf, but unfortunately the electoral system may disagree with us.

the fact that we are here, facing down a possible loss to the worst shit-stain of a proto-human is an irreconcilable indictment of the current democratic party and its owners.

phew! good thing I still have a few 386sx AMI BIOS boards handy. no ones shopping around zero days on those anymore, right?

post links to the comment page (which on ars is always good), but here is the actual article link

been doing this for decades, and yet…

from the same comedy troupe that brought you last seasons blockbuster hit, “the sanctity of marraige” comes the sequel, “for everyone but you!”.

Most of the people who were on the hook for these policies were just being preyed upon and squeezed for money.

thats sad as hell, man. I am glad your empathy took you in a better direction and you are no longer feeding the beast. stay safe and thank you for the education.

hey, thanks for the detailed run-down on this scam! your background in a portion of this chain sounds pretty damn interesting if you ever want to explain how you got in/out of it.

again, your comment was an absolute eye opener - thank you.

there was a mental word search, glitch in the matrix moment right at that point - read into that what you will, cuz these days all options are valid.

“insinuate” is absolutely the very best word, but publicly one has to walk the fine line between complicity and hair-on-fire alarm, and so “initiate” came out of her mouth.

for the record, I think we are past the face-melting stage.

from the video…

I think we need to be very cautious with the AI narrative where we are being lead to confuse mass surveillance with intelligence and by doing so initiate these corporate technologies into the core of our social and governmental institutions.
