Yeah, this is a decades old ongoing issue with companies. They see pretty much anything IT related as a money sink that needs to be trimmed to the bare bones while giving salespeople absurd bonuses. Then they get all surprised pikachu faced when they get hacked or hit with ransomware and their last backup was 6 months ago when they let the IT department go without warning and hired some guys from overseas to handle it remotely.

All month? This is the 342nd day of Halloween. All days lead to Halloween.

There has definitely been a trend in the media of downplaying CP and CSAM recently. I thought others were crazy when they said it, but after paying attention a bit, yeah, it's happening. My theory is that it is because of algorithms filtering stuff like that out.

The average Republican voters doesn't care what the facts are.

Honestly, if he hadn't smack talked them the day after they got that 45 day budget passed, they probably would back him. Hell, if we didn't need to get the big budget passed in 45 days, they'd probably do it just to fuck with the Republicans. Or they could fuck with McCarthy by voting for him and making the GOP think he's cut a secret deal with the Dems.

It's an abuser controlling his victim. They will go to whatever lengths they think they need to. Nothing is too dark except maybe murder, and even that's iffy.

He's likely hoping one of his nutjob followers kills the judge. It also lines up to imprison the judge if he gets back into the White House.

Yeah, no, that is a direct violation of his 1st amendment rights. He knows he's playing catch me if you can with the court and his mouth because the court can only gag very narrowly defined speech. For instance the court could say he can't talk about pickles, so he talks about cucumbers soaked in a brine. The court tells him he cannot talk about cucumbers soaked in a brine. So he talks about a green vegetable roughly the size of a pickling cucumber that you then put into a mixture that contains seasonings, vinegar, etc. Will he eventually run out of ways to describe a pickle? Sure, but he'll have wasted shitloads of the judge's time and distracted from what was actually happening in court. And it's working. Do you know anything about what has been presented so far in the case? You probably don't because those articles don't bring the clicks and views like stories about his latest shenanigans on social media.

Waiting for the inevitable man to come in and go "But how are we supposed to unify if we keep dividing ourselves?" or "You'd have a fit if men complained about women attending a male only event."

I, for one, welcome our new zombie overlords.

it’s never, ever, ever going to happen

That's been said about a lot of things that have happened in the last 7 years.

And it is so ironic in the context that they used to screech about liberal justices doing that and that they needed to be reigned in.

There's a convergence of issues. First, and probably foremost, users are idiots. So it has to be able to be operated by a 5 year with a learning disability. Second, implementing security costs money up front. It is cheaper to let the customer deal with the fall out, then do damage control on the cheap, and keep going. Third, users can't be assed to access things that a 5 year old with learning and physical disabilities and a peanut butter and jelly sandwich in one hand can't access. These are all typical issues stuff is engineered towards. This is why you see this same basic issue crop up over and over again.

Whenever you point a finger, you got three more pointing back at you.

The US has been a rich shithole country for a while now. It started back with Nixon and got supercharged with Reagan.

I mean, they really aren't. They're a death cult in sheep's clothing.

Just like in the days of the founding fathers! Praise be!

What's more likely to happen is they will loosen the rules as to who can be a "medical provider."

No it isn't.

I'm sure they investigated themselves and found no trace of wrong doing.
