Good book. Surprisingly sympathetic to men, which makes the whole thing a lot more palatable to the target audience.
Great recommendation.

The “another” law in question
Graduated driving licences could see a minimum supervised learning period, curfews and a limit to the number of passengers new drivers can carry.
Of course reckless drivers who were going to drive drunk won’t respect these either, but also these are laws that can dissuade parents from giving/lending their cars. Surprisingly a bunch of parents are oblivious to their kids drinking and driving patterns, but a blanket ruling like this might help.
Never have I ever seen so many pickup trucks and SUV ads as I’m seeing today. Ford, built tough or something. Big truck is adventurous. Big truck is barbecue with a big block of meat. Ugh, disgusting.
To this day I’d still say muscle building is the bulk of my subconscious motivation to hit the gym. My Physio appreciates the commitment because I need to take care of my knees, but it hits home that I’ve been worried about being lean and muscular since a pre teen.
I vividly remember one judo class when I was sparring with one of the few girls in class, and while we were the same size, she was more experienced (two belts up). Mid spar, she commented how strong my grip and distance control was, proceeded to flap open my kimono, the commented “you still do need to turn it up in the gym though”. ding ding ding new core memory just formed lmao
I think that was the first time my body was so openly judged to my face, and it was pretty much about the looks since we just stablished that the strength was there
New Kurtzgesagt video, a new opportunity to improve my filter bubble by blocking anyone who starts parroting factoids about their ties with the Gates Foundation 🤭 great day
Morning Show seasons 2 and 3 condensed in a single week
Mine has been working fine, but the instance did lose all my “Mark as watched” videos, and for some reason one specific channel never makes into the Subscriptions panel, but I just have it as a favourite and it ends up almost the same. The instance I was using for Piped is now borked, so I’m hanging onto Invidious for now.

Glad someone is finally taking on a fediverse alternative to GoodReads
Firefox is just the only decent option. And while at it, use Piped or Invidious while you still can, people!
I’m in total agreement that OSS builds more secure software. What I’m saying is that these companies are not in the business of building safe software.
From there, I see no advantage to closed-source here.
I think the easiest mental map is this: doing things well has a cost; doing things poorly can be cheaper; if it’s way cheaper and there’s some method available to de-risk it even if a little bit, no matter how little effective it is, it might be financially advantageous to pick the inferior option. This is not just for security, but pretty much everything.
What a complicated way of getting a building floor reassignment
You’d still need an account, but I think you can plug Zapier into a group to create RSS feed items from posts.
From there you can use your RSS reader of choice, FOSS or not
There’s also the graph API if you want to DIY, also needs a token with group permissions
Holy guacamole, Argentina was at the precipice’s edge and finally decided to take a step forward
Sorry for the comrades who will have to deal with this hell
I think you might have read it backwards, I equated closed source with security by obscurity. And obviously you can have both, if you pay extra.
Sure, finance is not technology, but I think it’s worth it pointing out that it’s not arbitrary or just greed or whatever, it has technicalities too.
Am I going to be behind the competition by doing this?
Yes, because you are due a lot more diligence with open source, and that will slow down your releases.
If the most secure crypto algorithms are the ones that are public, can we ensure the security of a bank’s apps by publicizing it?
You trade security by obscurity for security by expert oversight. I’m not a lawyer or baking auditor, but I’d say while zero-days are problematic for open source software projects; they can be life-ending for banks.
Is there a technical reason they don’t publicize their code or is it just purely corporate greed and nothing else?
This is a false dichotomy. Financial reasons to not publicize the code are technical reasons. Finance is technical.
Who would have thought that vehicles designed to resemble armoured tanks are not a societal net positive when you think of everyone who is outside the metal box
Only in a few select shit democracies can a company push back on a government entity trying to do something so basic as to provide decent tax filling mechanisms
Is that redemption? Does the show call it that?
No & No.
Does anyone else treat it as him having redeemed himself of his earlier genocide?
Unfortunately yes. Edgy dudes out there don’t put enough weight on what attempted genocide means, despite (perhaps because?) how common that is chosen for the villain goal.
I do agree with the fundamental thesis: it’s boring to see it over and over that villains tend to have a sympathetic origin story. Villains are either branded muscle-types with a thing for violence, or traumatized victims seeking help. It’s refreshing to see something different.
I don’t agree with “The Perfect Villains, Despite Their Lack Of Depth”, though. Most villains suck because most X suck, for any X. It’s not because they have gray morality.
lol did not see that coming, MTG taking Assange’s side, is the goal to smear Biden as weak a year from now? Who knows what’s inside that strange brain
Neoliberalism is just how social studies people call contemporary liberalism.
In politics and economics, this is what most people will understand as “liberal”. Not just some vague references to liberty like the dictionary meaning, neither classical liberalism from the 1850’s.
