Bit-breaker working in cybersecurity/IT. Only languages I know are English and Programming ones.

Sometimes I write things about technology.

If I told you the SHA256 for this sentence starts with 'c, 5, four, a, and a', would you believe me?

  • Trump and His Minions Are Eyeing “Wholesale Destruction” of Environmental Science

    Jump

  • Let's be clear, Trump is the minion in this equation.

  • how's your week going, Beehaw

    Jump

  • Horrible. Just when you ask the Universe and Supreme Architect for a break, they conspire to plan J of making you decide to unalive. I ain't doing that, but just tired boss of the absolutely hectic insanity of life, with the added benefit of extreme costs just to exist in this country. I am tired, broke, busy, and it ain't getting better any time soon.

    Fuck it.

  • Locked

    If you found someone attractive, would you date them if you found out they were trans?

    Jump

  • Appreciate the in depth reply. I don't have experience being a trans person or dating one or even hitting it off enough to get to that point. So my words are purely from a heterosexual male perspective without evidence to support it.

    For your bullet points and me specifically.

    • possibly. Sexual intimacy is an important component of a relationship, to me. I cannot have sexual enjoyment or attraction with another penis.

    • I don't feel there would be any hangups, just would want to make sure my lady is happy and medically safe, though that means more work as a partner

    • don't see an issue with this either, as long as it was disclose it. same as above for potential concerns. Finding out after a wedding or a few years dating would definitely cause me some issues.

    If I hit it off with a woman and before we got to the stage of dating offically, and we had that conversation, no it would not be a deal breaker for me. Communication is important though

  • 'Climate Change Greatest Con Job Ever': Trump Praises "Clean, Beautiful Coal"

    Jump

  • I what universe is coal considered "clean". I don't want to live in it, if there's worse in that reality.

  • Locked

    If you found someone attractive, would you date them if you found out they were trans?

    Jump

  • No. Starting any relationship with a lie or withholding the truth is not kosher to me. Now, knowing form the start, an attractive lady is an attractive lady. Let's have that discussion. But I am also biologicaly a male and I quite enjoy the female form and all associated enjoyment with such. I do not find androgynous or males attractive at all, just not wired that way.

  • Sinclair Will Not Air ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ Upon ABC Return Tuesday

    Jump

  • See: Fox

  • you should know /e/os is highly insecure

    Jump

  • Graphene is the most secure Android OS, hands down. Nation State actor tools like Cellebrite (and others) have difficulty or an impossible experience trying to Crack it. No saying it can't be done or ain't done already, but they claim an inability to do so.

    That ranks pretty high and counters the FUD.

  • Kirk Assassination, Propaganda of the Deed, and Luigi

    Jump

  • OK thanks. Generally casings or shells refer to the spent cartridges, which is why I was confused.

  • Kirk Assassination, Propaganda of the Deed, and Luigi

    Jump

  • Why and how did they find three casings if it was only one shot? Doesn't add up.

  • Texas passes bill banning abortion pills from being mailed to the state

    Jump

  • Exactly my thoughts. It crosses state lines, it's Federal. The mail system is Federally run (for now). The state has no jurisdiction over federal mail. It's also why if you cross state borders with drugs or mail them to another state, you get Federal charges.

  • CEO who snatched boy's hat at US Open says he made 'huge mistake'

    Jump

  • No shit. Still a greedy piece of shit.

  • Medialabs is pissing off the users at Imgur

    Jump

  • I prefer other image hosts myself, but thought this was funny and noteworthy. The enshittification of social media continues, and ramps up when a business entity decides to piss off their long term user base.

  • Best Routers for Privacy?

    Jump

  • Is there any way to get a new router to work without connecting an account to it

    Yes. Look at Mikrotik offerings. You'll need to have an understanding of networking, it's not plug and play. But it's fully self contained and powerful. No external accounts needed, just a local/device admin account and password.

  • Federal labour board deems Air Canada flight attendants' strike 'unlawful'

    Jump

  • the union can be dismantled under court order.

    So the government can declare your legal option to collective bargaining as illegal when it doesn't suit them. So then, what is the point of the union and legal protections when they can remove it at a whim...

    This is fucked. Yes, I know US did it before too. Same question and reasoning. If the government only allows you to do something, when it doesn't harm their pockets.. it's a useless, feel good 'right' or protection.

  • ICE Adds Random Person to Group Chat, Exposes Details of Manhunt in Real-Time

    Jump

  • SOP these days.

  • Trump is losing his foolish trade war. This will cost ordinary Americans greatly

    Jump

  • I didn't say anything to you previously about this topic. YOU SAID

    There are over 300M Americans. How many voted for this?

    I answered your question and corrected your math. How many VOTED for this.

  • Trump is losing his foolish trade war. This will cost ordinary Americans greatly

    Jump

  • Trump is losing his foolish trade war. This will cost ordinary Americans greatly

    Jump

  • 174m voted.

    So 77/174 = 44%

    So, about half voted for this, is correct.

  • It’s getting harder to skirt RTO policies without employers noticing

    Jump

  • I have never met my manager in person. Going on 15 yrs. He manages, I do the work. All remotely. Works just fine for technical knowledge work.
