@inthehands
Time seems to agree substantially.
“That said, the impact is similar. By taking the floor for such an extended period, Booker is disrupting the normal functioning of the Senate, drawing attention to what he and many of his Democratic colleagues view as a dangerous political climate under Trump’s leadership.”

@inthehands but he’s not actually filibustering anything?!
Don’t get me wrong, these things need to be said and as prominently as possible, but normally this kind of display was used to hold up legislation or nominations.
(Normal died a long time ago, and this particular bit of normal was strangled by McConnell because he wanted to hold up genuinely popular bills and nominations indefinitely.)

@dalias @whitequark @ryanc @filippo this is apparently exactly what happened to all previous expansions to copyright that vested in the creating individuals.
“You have new rights according to the government; isn’t that nice? Sign them over to us or we’ll make you starve [now, rather than later].”

@dalias @foone right?!

@ZachWeinersmith I really need to read this copy of A City on Mars that’s on my bedside table, but I thought you’d enjoy this.

@eaton neat, does that predate @cstross calling corporations “slow AI” on the same premise?

@mcc A COMPUTER CANNOT BE CHARGED WITH PERJURY

THEREFORE A COMPUTER MUST NEVER FORCE A PERSON TO PERJURE THEMSELVES

@ryanc oh noes. I forgot about that whole thing for a minute and thought you were just goofing around. Spent a minute or two tossing around whether I thought it constituted any kind of weakness on the part of a server using one and decided “probably not” especially given how some keys were generated in the last with an eye towards having fewer up bits to reduce processing time.

@GossiTheDog I recall the uproar about this one. Did they get cited for experimenting on people without their consent, or did that just go away?

@ryanc @b0rk @jackie but those are the ones I need meld for.

@ryanc @b0rk @jackie the only reason I’ve had to get a graphical session on my remote development machine in recent memory. I really should learn how to use vimdiff.

@eaton I am going to try to document effectively the trade-offs of my new project (as I understand them at the time). Otherwise, I (let alone a third party) will never know why I did anything.

A spokesperson for Microsoft denies that the Windows installer hacks into people’s WiFi networks saying:
“It doesn’t do that. Any wireless decryption or cracking routines only come into play if the password spraying attempts all fail - like the one that we were breached by last week. So, really, it almost never happens.”

Upcoming Windows 11 anti-feature:
- automated wireless intrusion in the setup environment. Don’t have an internet connection? Don’t worry; we’re sure we can break into one of these networks!

@siderea @dalias @warthog9 this is like the opposite of Microsoft’s approach which seems to not count moving emails to the Junk folder the same as reporting emails as Junk - I get a lot of spam in my Hotmail account.

@thomasfuchs @noracodes I’ve been toying with the idea of “display name” and “pronounceable name” (optional) that when present sets an aria attribute so that the screen reader doesn’t render my display name as see zero deck zero deck zero duh
