It has always been my dream as a white man to apply to a job created for a young black man from a low income family. Some day I will be able to do so without fear of persecution.

Long past time to do it. It’s not even congress but the market share of the internet has been centralizing around the handful of FAANG or whatever acronym. Unfortunately too much of the tech nerd population have been seduced by the dark side. A reconstructed world wide web would be very hard to gain enough traction without enough nerds backing it.
This will all blow over and the families of wealthy cronies will live in luxurious estates built on that prime green space.
Part of me wishes the more enterprising types out there never let them have a moment of peace and quiet on that land.
I think social media is inherently incapable of fostering good content. By nature it is social as in interpersonal drama slanted. That’s not considering shareholder factor yet. Early years reddit was an oddity at the unique intersection between message boards and the social media era. In the beginning they were in the money burning phase. Not concerned with making profit. So maximizing engagement at the cost of content quality wasn’t on the table yet.
Quite frankly old reddits reputation became something larger than life sized. The expertise on reddit was never really that great. There was a lot of bad info but try telling a big headed neckbeard that.
Better content is to be found on the internet outside of social media. Find that person who hosts a site to share their content from a technical basis. The people who will not suffer fools. They want to talk about inner working of their widgets. They don’t care about likes and subscriptions. They don’t have shareholders to answer to.
Lemmy seems to be taking the route in attempt to rapid expansion by stuffing it with low content memes. A flaw is in trying to mimic social media when most people want message boards of yesteryear.
Jagmeet has run out the clock too. The NDP should be making moves. The time is right. As usual they will not. Conservatives will fall ass backwards into power.
Whether this lock being broken will have any meaningful impact on the Nouveau developers remains to be seen
Unless something changed since it was first posted it was described as the flasher binary on Windows having a built in bypass. They used that to enable flashing anything to any card. They did not reverse engineer the signature check algorithm or actually crack it.
One dude traced the binary to the point in code execution where he found the bypass. The other dude tried to do some more complicated methods of finding the bypass and then rushed to release whatever he had because the other dude found it in one sitting.
It doesn’t sound to me like this would be very helpful other than trying other signed firmware on a card.
Remember when the internet used to be wall of texts. People used to write like writers do. Sentences and paragraphs that comprise a distinct idea. A collection of paragraphs that elucidate the point of view in their head… These days the style of writing online is some kind of line-by-line disjointed train of thoughts. Something resembling a collection of 140 character social media posts. I find it more difficult to grok. Impossible at times. It’s like people aren’t writing for readers. They’re brain dumping one liners off the top of their head.
If apple pie is American. Real estate investment is Canadian. I mean mom and pop Canadians. It’s an elephant in the room. Immigrants who are wealthy enough to invest such way are merely doing as Canadians do.
“More than ever, this kind of dangerous situation shows how having more access to trustworthy and reliable information and news is vital for so many of our communities to be informed about the current emergency.”
Facebook isn’t trustworthy. Tech bros can’t be trusted.
It’s not like the internet has been removed. Social media isn’t the internet. News sites are still accessible. As is the whole internet. People need to get their head out of their asses already. This problem is farcical. Life threatening situation, ‘oh no my facebook is broken what will I do?!?11’. How did we even get to this point. The internet circa 90s and early 2000s is laughing their asses off at all this. PEBKAC.

They managed during the 45th administration. And through COVID with them too. Another concern is if there will be adults still in charge here in the first place.
Probably a testament to the effectiveness of conservative regressivism. Over the years I’ve heard parents of the Harris generation say there is night and day difference between the children of before and after the destruction Harris wreaked on the education system. They’re perpetuating a class of poorly educated will continue to vote against their own interests.
What will policy change? Policy so nobody wants to live or do business there anymore?
Toronto and Vancouver will remain very expensive not matter what. Inherit your parents mcmansion or place your bets on some other region that might become prosperous in 3 or 4 decades.
Covid and the vaccine was a microcosm for societal behavior. A small percent of the population just won’t give a fuck. The majority will do a thing based on self preservation. A small percent will do a thing for the collective interest.
The tough thing about climate change is there isn’t an immediate and tangible threat. There’s no virus in your face. It’s a long slow erosion of the living planet. In that sense it’s very difficult to convince people to act out of self preservation. There’s no queuing for an inoculation and you’re done. You saved the world too. Give yourself a pat on the back. The species as a whole has to modify its behavior with out immediate personal gain. That’s a tough proposition.
Especially for us. The part of the world that exports its pollution from both ends. Manufacturing exists out of sight out of mind. Disposal exists out of sight out of mind. We’re the global NIMBYs.
