He / They
In which case there are still ways to make it work, like putting in an SSO bypass rule for the IP of your other property. Point is, under no circumstances is it impossible to both have it be protected against scanning attacks like the ones described in the gh issue, and keep it available to use over the internet for authorized users.
You should already be fine in that case.
Your smart TV is (presumably) on your local network, so you should be routing the requests locally (point the client at the local ip, assuming it didn’t autodiscover it) not through the VPN/ tunnel.
Put the instance behind another authentication point like a VPN or reverse proxy with SSO. That will prevent the wider Internet from accessing it without legitimate users being cut off. You should be doing this with any server you operate (like Plex), but definitely one that may have legal implications.
There is no such thing.
The person is the one who pursues, builds, and implements policy. A bad person will not be a good ally, no matter their professed policy beliefs, because it is only integrity that binds a politician to work for their constituents once elected.
Without a good person, you have no way to trust that good policy will follow.
There are piece of shit Democrat voters who won’t vote for any women.
But the 2 women candidates that the DNC has put their weight behind were massively unpopular compared to many other well-known Democrats who are women.
So it becomes hard to actually suss out which is the bigger factor in their losses.
On one side you have people like my dad, whose conclusion is that we’re all still too sexist… so we need to just stop running women, so that we don’t lose.
And on the other side you have people like me, who think that kind of cynical politicking is exactly what lost us 2016 and 2024, and a popular, inspiring, progressive, female candidate is exactly what we need to counter the fashies.
I actually do feel bad for the very real sexism that Hillary has obviously encountered in her career. Everything else aside, that is (by definition) never deserved or justified. But she is very legitimately a huge warhawk, a close personal friend and advocate for at least one major war criminal, thoroughly corrupt, a huge pusher of cutthroat capitalism for workers, anti-M4A, and just an all-around condescending asshole when being candid (everyone forgets her being caught joking about young people being basement-dwelling losers at a private fundraiser).
Even if we didn’t now know for a fact due to Donna Brazile laying out in writing, that Hillary had control of the DNC during the 2016 primaries, and used it to box Sanders out, she still ran such an unlikeable, uninspiring campaign, with outdated and out-of-touch messaging, that I don’t think she has any right to be smugging about anything.
If she had not chosen to (whether successful or not) attempt to ostracize literally ever demographic aside from 50+ white women by being actively antagonistic towards most of them (Millennial voters? Just laugh if someone asks how you’ll appeal to them!), she very well might have won. Not to cast aspersions, but I sure don’t call that ‘smart’.
The sad thing is that our current predicament was mostly perfectly understood back in 2016, even prior to the election. But no one in the DNC, Hillary included, seemed to have bothered to learn from their mistakes, and are all still making the same mistakes.
…the fear is that if younger voters really are committed to a host of ideological positions at odds with the mainstream of the Democratic Party, then that Party, without a Trump-sized cudgel, is doomed. It should not escape anybody’s notice that politics by negative definition—the argument, at bottom, that “we’re better than those guys”—has become the dominant electoral strategy of the Democratic Party, and that despite the escalation of the “those guys” negatives, the mere promise to be preferable has yielded diminishing returns. At some point, the Democratic Party will either need to embrace a platform significantly to the left of their current orthodoxy, or they will lose.
There are only so many times one can insist that young voters capitulate to a political party’s sole demand—vote for us!—in exchange for nothing.
“Are you now, or have you ever been a member of…”
There’s a lot more COBOL folks out there than people realize. It also is still being taught in some universities.
UNT has an entire mainframe-focused course track:
Texas A&M has at least one COBOL class as well: https://catalog.tamusa.edu/search/?P=CISA+2354
I haven’t checked other unis, but I suspect there are plenty more.
That’s not to say these clowns know anything about it though, or they wouldn’t have been working for Must in the first place.
I looked through their comments going back 2 months, and I can’t find that. They are clearly very bitter and anti-US, but I don’t see anything from them that is anti-minority. The US is en route to doing those things you listed, and yet I don’t see us on the Left out using force to prevent it currently. I think they are just indelicately stating their hope that our current trajectory is enough to wake us up collectively as Americans from our ineffectiveness in opposing our government’s evils abroad.
Not a question, but you can probably appreciate this: I got to see Juno Reactor as the closing show at DefCon several years back, and they were AWESOME. Ridiculously good performance, very theatrical. Only concert I’ve been to that topped it was MCR. ;)
Holy shit. I’d ask why he wasn’t arrested, but sadly it’s obvious.
Who is going to learn from this?
This video is blowing up, so it’s not like only Beehaw users are going to see it. Plenty of Centrists and neolib democrats are seeing this behavior, and it has the potential to disabuse them of the notion that the US government is good. Will some of them look at it and just think, “anyone but Trump and this wouldn’t happen”? Sure, but plenty will realize that this is the same government that did Rodney King, Kent State, Blair Mountain, etc (as well as all the international abuses and evil we enable and perpetrate), and it’s just a matter of time before it turns on them.
So chomping at the bit for “just desserts,”
Once again, saying “look at what they’re actively doing to you right now, that’s what they’ve been doing to us non-Americans all along”, is not advocating or wishing for that abuse, it’s advocating and wishing for people to wake up to the abuse.
I don’t think they advocated for it, I think they said, “now that you have it, learn from it”.
I was going to mention GameStop (I think most of us got it for ‘free’ with our GameStop trade-in subscription thing), but I couldn’t remember if it was always owned by them, or if they just bought it after it was big.
I’ll preface this with saying that I’m half-German, half-Mexican, who is “white”/ white-passing (and who has pro-Trump hispanic family members).
But “white” is still not real. It’s still a homogenizing social force, and not a singular culture.
In my experience, “White” is just a tool for otherization. It’s definition has historically changed to include or exclude purely to serve the purposes of whoever is weaponizing it at any given moment. Are Jewish people white? Irish? Italians? Catholics? I’ve personally heard all 4 of those called “not white” by other white people, and it made me realize that there is no fixed definition.
Obviously in your day-to-day interactions, your ability to visually “pass” as white is what will prompt other (usually, but sadly not always white) people to give you privileged treatment, but the moment a self-identifying white group needs to attack someone, they will adopt a rigid definition. “White” as a word works best for this precisely because there is no objective definition. “European-American” can’t be used by white-passing hispanics (or at least, it wouldn’t be) to justify colorism or racism. It can’t be used to exclude Europe-originating Jewish people.
Some calls for the dismantling of whiteness
Whiteness/ white supremacy is not something you can dismantle, unless you purely mean institutionalized whiteness. Whiteness is not the only supremacist ideology, it just enjoyed far more ‘support’ and growth due to its ability to absorb new groups due to not being rigidly, objectively definable. There’s a reason that you see “white-passing” hispanics voting for Trump in Florida, and its because they like the privilege they think they gain over non white-passing immigrants.
The problem with privilege is that you can’t “opt out” of how someone else treats you, except in the most blatantly egregious ways (e.g. if a white cashier allowed you as the only other white person in a cafe to come to the front of the line, you could/should decline). Just calling myself “German-Mexican” won’t stop this either. The only way to dismantle whiteness/ white privilege/ white supremacy is to lessen the influence of the people who propagate it until whatever privileged treatment they enact no longer has the ability to result in institutionalized systems of privilege, or create statistically-noticeable economic differences.
Basically, stop electing white people, white people. And stop excusing or ignoring assholes, everyone.
It was the game news source in print media, for many years. It often used to come with demos on a CD in the back of the magazine, so it was also the best way to try games for yourself.
I don’t think they’ll ever get back there, if only because honestly having a magazine to read was better than a website, imo, but I’m always tentatively hopeful to have another reputable news source in the gaming space.
social media
Well there’s your problem! Honestly, other than Beehaw I don’t have any digital comms apart from texting, and none of my friends or family are here. It’s so much nicer than when I had Instagram, or even much further back, Facebook.
Not one iota of surprise in my body. I never understood how people didn’t get the ick from him.
