@jeffcliff I got a good laugh out of that other guy calling you a Putinoid because he can’t acknowledge that even some on the left are not satisfied with the current US administration.
That doesn’t have to mean that you support the other US #Twin_Parties candidate, especially as a foreigner.
@mattg Sounds good in theory, but in practice, many high managers can’t accept any organizational criticism from employees. Speaking plainly about such issues is a quick route to the unemployment line.
The latest Risky Business episode on Recall is good, but one small correction - it doesn’t need SYSTEM rights.
Here’s a video of two MSFT employees gaining access to the Recall database folder - with SQLite database right there. Watch their hacking skills. (You don’t need to go this length as an attacker, either). Cc @riskybusiness
@foo From what I saw, the Walmart self checkout lines took just as long to get through because most people needed assistance from the single employee. But the Target self checkout lines were even worse. I used to go through a full service line and be leaving before some of the customers who were already waiting in the self checkout line before I got in line.
@disarray I've never tried, but I suspect your biggest hurdle will be TSA inspection. Those $9/hour crotch gropers aren't expected to know anything about expensive electronics, so they may just decide it is suspicious and put you in the interrogation room.
@pluralistic Until some anti-competitive corporation screams to their paid-off congressionals and Congress forces the FTC to back off.
In all honesty, if we want corporations kept in check, we have to depend on the New York State Attorney General's office. They do more than all the federal agencies and 48 of the 50 states combined.
@freakazoid@emacsen@clacke Part of the issue with corporations is that they have an unchecked survival instinct and an unchecked growth instinct, but none of the self-sacrifice, compassion, concern, caring that real beings (human and otherwise) have.
I honestly think one of the best things we could do is cap their lifespans and their size and require dissolution of assets when EOL occurs.
Ok the option to turn it off is tucked away under Privacy -> Advanced but it warns you that you might experience painful side-effects if you turn it on.
