Reading about incidences such as this has made me think critically about all cloud services in the United States, and the conclusion is simply not to use them. Sure, the probability is lower than getting struck by lightning. I certainly do

It is not overblown. I refuse to be a perpetual suspect in the possession and transfer of child pornography. Having these checks on my phone is just a short hop to checking everything the camera sees. I worked with a guy who was convicted

They very much did own them, you need to look at the history of ampr.org, who sits on the board and “who” applied for the /8. These did not belong to amateur radio, TAPR, the ARRL or anyone but this organization.

We all stand on the shoulders of those who came before us. Yes, they are bad ideas. But back when those old COBOL people were on the job, it is what they had in their tool kit. It is easy to make light of decades old ideas from a modern la

It is an absolutely horrible way to die. This may appear to be over the top for 25 cases, but should the vector be via puppies who very much chew and bite their owners, it would certainly be more than 25 cases. It is very prevalent in rac

What makes you think Keystone and this pipeline are the same in any way? They are not, and you should know the difference before dragging political nonsense totally irrelevant into the topic at hand. I know, some people just can’t help them

You are using one local example to bolster claims of fraud across at least four states, if not the entire nation. Trump lost by what, 8 million votes? Does dirty shit happen? Absolutely. Was it in this election? Yep. Was it enough to sw

Maybe the right needs to understand that no corporation is required to give them their platform. It isn’t “censorship” to toss your ass off Twitter for violating their TOS. It is censorship for the government to demand Twitter shut ya down
