    Why are you booing? Oh yeah, right. Because it’s a shallow and superficial take - but still, the boy has a point.

    The Dems have been neglecting democratic process within their own ranks, in effect alienating their constituency - and it has been going on long before Palestine hit the mainstream. The last time the Dems held a primary was in 2008.

    All of this has culminated in a disenfranchised voter base that just doesn’t give af about the dems - and it’s well deserved.



  • TL;Dr. From Wikipedia

    IPFS allows users to host and receive content in a manner similar to BitTorrent. As opposed to a centrally located server, IPFS is built around a decentralized system of user-operators who hold a portion of the overall data. Any user in the network can serve a file by its content address, and other peers in the network can find and request that content from any node who has it using a distributed hash table (DHT).

    So it’s BitTorrent in the web browser… thanks. How is that to be competitive with CloudFlare and Quic again? It has the same network issues that the blockchain has, in that it will be cumbersome and slow - for anyone else that doesn’t have millions to throw into infrastructure. Welcome to the same problem again, but in a different way.


  • The sustainability of it is questionable. If I’m not mistaken, IPFS is based on Ethereum, which has gone over to proof of stake rather than proof of work, but it’s still a pretty cumbersome system.

    We’re talking about something that needs to compete with Quic and CloudFlare. I’m not sure that Ethereum or even crypto itself is efficient enough as a content delivery method, that IPFS - though a nice idea - is unrealistic.

    But that’s just speculation from someone who has zero knowledge behind IPFS as a technology and protocol, so take it with a grain of salt.

    EDIT: honestly, why qualify with “I’m not sure” when besserwissers and their alts roam the fediverse instead of going to therapy. Smh. Give the people a Tl;Dr at least. I’m not here for long form content.

    It is gambling, because dark pools. That is the house. You’re not trading the actual stock. The financial institutions do that. You buy stock from them, and they in turn give you a fake number and invest it in all secrecy.

    In essence, you’ll get your money, but they will handle the profits. So it is a rigged slot machine.



  • Screw the privacy policy, bruh, read that TOS:

    When you post Contributions, you grant us a license (including use of your name, trademarks, and logos): By posting any Contributions, you grant us an unrestricted, unlimited, irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, transferable, royalty-free, fully-paid, worldwide right, and license to: use, copy, reproduce, distribute, sell, resell, publish, broadcast, retitle, store, publicly perform, publicly display, reformat, translate, excerpt (in whole or in part), and exploit your Contributions (including, without limitation, your image, name, and voice) for any purpose, commercial, advertising, or otherwise, to prepare derivative works of, or incorporate into other works, your Contributions, and to sublicense the licenses granted in this section. Our use and distribution may occur in any media formats and through any media channels.

    In other words, you put any content up there, they can resell it to some movie studio AND make an AI copy of you with no consequences… at least according to their ToS.

    EU law however… well, time will tell how fast and violently EU lawyers will inject themselves into the urethra of the service provider.





  • Ah yes, the revolving door argument, the favourite of prison industrial complex barons - and also the whipping boy of conservative election cycles.

    It also created lots more crime, because being “hard on crime” means depriving families of breadwinners, giving them a new social status so that they become second class citizens, and even saddling them with debt they can’t pay while being fed through an industrial complex where they get traumatized and brow beaten until some of them turn feral, in effect actually fostring more crime and criminals - which makes “hard on crime” as a self fulfilling prophecy, and also a leftover mainstay from authoritarian nationalism and fascism…

    …because conservatives and liberals are fucking dumb. But still, vote Kamela, you stupid removed.

    “oH bUt sHe LiBrUl n NoT dIveStInG fRoM IsReAl, ThErEFoRe mAkE oUiE sAd” I know!!! I do not care, because it is a dumb argument for stupid people who huff their own farts. Trump would give Netenyahu the go ahead on complete and total genocide in Gaza, and you know it. Gtfo here AND VOTE KAMELA, YOU STUPID removed!!!

    I’m sorry, yankies, but this election cycle is just the worst in recent memory. It’s so dumb and frustrating.




  • It’s not a question of being a geek, but securing your entire supply chain. If you don’t already vet container image layers and cosigning said containers, chances are you’re already in risky rivers all the same.

    In essence the rooted mode was never that big of a risk when compared to the actual runtimes. Certain attacks don’t even care about being in a user container if it deals with breaking the kernel itself, even with SELinux and AppArmor taken into account.

    Rootless containers aren’t a magic bullet as a result. The only thing that you should concern yourself with is what you’re pushing to prod, how you layer your images and cosigning so that you can source… every mess… to every desk jockey junior…

    You…

    Do not…

    Mess with my infra.
