This Twitter thread implies it’s related to his “siding with” Jacob Applebaum of the Tor Project, when he was accused of sexual misconduct. https://twitter.com/mjg59/status/1452714046218649603?s=21

There’s also the issue of half-assed murder boards qualifying people before they’re actually qualified.

Most Sailors on ships work in watch rotations. If you’re lucky it’s three shifts, but more often than not it’s “port and starboard” shifts of 12-on/12-off. This is especially hard for those who work nights. Even if your shift ends at,

I can’t upvote this comment enough. It really speaks to something I’ve felt for so long about AOL. You are right that it was a different Internet, one where we teens could make mistakes while coming of age on a new communications medium wit

Have you reviewed the data yourself? Very few of the domains containing Nazi or far-right terms have ever actually been live sites. The ones that are/have been live are a very tiny subset of the overall customer base. There was a recen

A mail server is one of those things I consider way too important to trust myself with. How do you run one without constantly worrying about it being compromised?

Thanks, it looks like I’m going this route. It’s a bit pricey to transfer all domains at once so I have to pick and choose. For anyone else in the same boat, they offer a promo code “TLD21TS8” which reduces the transfer costs by 64%.

Why would you be inclined to believe the latter? I don’t host anything on Epik, just use them as a registrar because they offered free Whois privacy. None of the domains I have are anything political or offensive in any way. I’m innocent co

They offered free Whois privacy. I was paying for it annually with GoDaddy so I moved.

I hadn’t heard any claims about unsavory customers until I was already a customer myself. I joined them because their Whois privacy was free while I had to pay for it on GoDaddy, nothing else.

Well this is shitty. I have several domains registered through Epik. I think it’s bullshit all of my personal information is now being shared in a torrent because there were other unsavory customers. I, and likely countless others, have not

I said “only” in relation to the myth that hundreds of unarmed black men were being shot by the police. I’m not saying 13 is good, but it’s objectively better than more than 13. There was a poll some months ago, which I can’t find, that ask

At no point did they say anyone was being paid to be gay. Only you stated that, twice. They are saying people can be influenced. Take LGBT representation in contemporary media. A casual interpretation would be that nearly 1 out of 4 people

I suppose you are correct in pointing to their faith not being an issue, but their allegiances are still questioned by some. Why do Malays disproportionately make up the bulk of police/SCDF during NS? https://www.quora.com&#

Since the author is using his Singaporean military service as the analogy, Singaporean-Malays need not apply. Their faith supposedly makes them an inherent risk, so they’re likely only eligible for low-level software developer positions, or

Even if all of the citizens of the US did what you said tomorrow, would it really make a difference with China producing (as of 2015) 29.4% of all CO2 emissions? Even if the US (at 14.3%) somehow cut emissions to zero, there are still the n

It’s not just checking files you are sharing, it’s also scanning files that exist on your device. The worry, or slippery slope argument, is that it’s one step away from scanning your device for other types of content, like memes critical of
