Yeah, I realized that shortly after I posted, so I updated the post to point out that this wouldn’t do anything against a device that had spyware installed to flag a user for what it incorrectly deems as objectionable behavior.

PS to mods: I’m not a bot, but I do post like one in the trailers community while I build out automation to do that work for me. Everything I post is 100% made by me. I’ll get appropriate permission from instance ownership before I turn anything on.

This looks remarkably grounded considering Alex Winter’s other works.

Not a trailer; removed.

This is an interview with another reporter from ProPublica who also reported on this, not an interview with the people themselves.

The speech aspect of this is really interesting.

My first instinct would be “don’t make this about me.” Think about what you would say about him, how you met, adventures and escapades you’ve gotten into and out of, and how you’ve grown from who you were when you met into the unique and interesting people you are now.

I think that’s a sly way to talk about it without making the whole speech about it.

Saul Spady—Dick’s Burgers scion, anti-tax election activist (twice over), and KIRO radio fill-in host—has filed an initiative that would criminalize “unauthorized camping and storage of personal property” in unincorporated King County.

Something to keep in mind when deciding where to grab a bite to eat.

Real talk: there is room for some legal enforcement around street camping. I’ve got some RVs in my neighborhood owned and occupied by people who are doing it because it’s cheaper than renting and they can get away with it. They’re not mentally ill or drug users, and they appear to be fixing cars for cash, so they have means. I think there’s room to make laws against that sort of thing without criminalizing people suffering from mental illness and addiction (who need medical care, not jail).

But dopey laws like this aren’t how to get it done.

For context, that’s a quote from Samuel Bendahan, a Socialist member of parliament from a separate article on RTS, sharing that he shares Proton’s concerns about state overreach but dislikes the firms tactics.

Bendahan’s concerns would make sense if Proton felt like letting the government violate a little of their customer’s privacy (as a treat) while they encourage the government to please not do that. But Proton is not interested in doing that, probably believing that their customers would revolt en masse if they did.

If Bendahan doesn’t like the consequences, he should be preventing them from happening, not whining that the consequences are unjust.

Furries:

I remember when Hulk Hogan got hurt, but I never thought the entire act was a fake. I’d always presumed that it was a legit injury from a performance mistake because a dangerous move was either served or received incorrectly, and the marketing machine just used this turn of events to its advantage.

My little brother was genuinely concerned and sent him a letter. If the injury was faked, coercing young fans into a letter writing campaign is pretty shitty.

Dear everyone, everywhere, forever,

If you are going to write an article (or share a post about an article) all about a 2-minute video, do please include a link to that video so people can see what the fuck is being talked about.

Here is the video: https://youtu.be/Afetnw70S04

You can do what the tea party did: capture a small enough portion of your voting base that covers the margin of victory (aka: the short hairs) and demand the party do your bidding.

I was floored when finally something not-absolutely-awful happened for once.

Credit where credit is due; the plot on this show doesn’t waste time with hand-wringing. It’s moving.

Newsom is a conservative-sliding turd who is actively abandoning left-leaning causes by paling around with anti-trans bigots in a cynical and harmful attempt to ride the Overton Window’s continuing shift to the right.

Fuck that guy.
