Ooh ooh ooh do Klan hoods next! I can’t tell if they’re doing some COVID era social distancing or not! Man what insightful journalism!

Note on timelines: The security exper’s analysis indicates the attack ceased on November 10, 2025, while the hosting provider’s statement shows potential attacker access until December 2, 2025. Based on both assessment, I estimate the overall compromise period spanned from June through December 2, 2025, when all attacker access was definitively terminated.

I’m only aware of the one (somewhat extended) time described in the article. The dev(s?) has been upfront about what happened and provided updates as they learned more information, hence multiple headlines on the subject.

With these changes and reinforcements, I believe the situation has been fully resolved. Fingers crossed.

Bitwarden has a account custodian feature that will give my wife all the info she needs to access essential accounts and hardware, however, realistically the homelab will only continue to work until things start dropping - there is likely no easy recovery of crashes.

I haven’t talked to my wife about it directly, you’ve reminded me this would be a good conversation to have, but the first thing she should do when the insurance money comes in is (after paying off the assassin) buy a bunch of dumb light bulbs and pay to print any photos she cares about in case our digital backups die.

I uhh… I don’t think that’s right… But I also dont know enough about the idiom to prove you wrong…

Oh boy, this is gonna be soooo helpful for… Uhh… Hmm… Well like… You can… Perform… A lot more… Faster… And stuff.

Startups are hiring all of the time, they’re just harder to find because they’re always a company you’ve never heard of, and their job descriptions are sometimes a little more niche than they need to be.

In terms of implementing a vision without political power, the best impacts I’ve had have always come from forming a consensus with all of the different stakeholders at my level in the company before trying to move the idea up the ladder.

If the ideas are good they will probably benefit multiple departments. If your leader isn’t receptive to new ideas, working with other departments to get their leaders excited about the idea may be a way to move forward.

It’s not worse. It’s carbon neutral

So replacing their gas with carbon neutral gas will improve the situation by 100%.

Referring to things as carbon neutral is typically shorthand for net neutral CO₂e (or net-zero) CO₂e.

You’re pedantically right that the machine is not creating or destroying carbon atoms, but the things it does create have massive “carbon dioxide equivalence”. Or, phrased differently: the emissions of this equipment are equivalent to emitting significant amounts of carbon dioxide.

They also reek havoc on people’s lungs.

This is worse than air, but better than doing nothing I suppose. The situation is not “improved by 100%”. It’s marginally better, but definitely not 100%.

Any carbon it takes in will be released exactly back to where it was.

Except it won’t be. Combustion is not a perfect CxHy O2 > CO2 + H2O reaction. Theres a bunch of other side reactions happening, NOx, unburned hydrocarbons, particulate matter, carbon monoxide. There are lots of challenges to continuing to utilize hydrocarbon fuels, especially in mobile/small scale applications where you can’t clean the exhaust stream.

I absolutely see suffering everywhere. None of this is lost on me.

But I see that suffering amplified under the current administration in a way that it wouldn’t be under another leader.

Progress takes time and ignorance of this fact is what conservatives feed on. Dividing people is their specialty. They want you to feel hopeless, to give up, to waste your voice on infighting so they can further secure power even though they are in the minority.

Republicans cheer for every vote for Jill Stein. Every person who believes each candidate is somehow equally repugnant and chooses not to vote. These things help them cling to power and they have 0 incentive to change the system.

I’d take four years of nothing over everything happening today in a heartbeat.

Suggest Pop!_OS for the fearful.

Mint, I think you mean Mint.

Oh yes, Jill Stein! The people’s President! I had totally forgotten about Jill Stein, the candidate who is totally not propped up by Republicans to siphon away Democratic votes in swing states.

I’ve been living under a rock for the last year - how’s her administration been going? Has she ended all the wars and state sanctioned kidnappings?

Thank God so many people voted for her, can you imagine if anyone else had won? Good those votes weren’t wasted on someone with a statistically significant chance of winning.

Agreed! They helped elect Trump - look at the impact he’s had! They should be proud!

I blame the people who enable the perpetrators. While the US is still a democracy, that includes people who voted for the perpetrators, as well as those who threw away their vote allowing the perpetrators to win.

The blame doesn’t stop there, I also blame the DNC’s bungled handling of the election, but regardless, I have zero doubt in my mind that there would be fewer government kidnappings under Harris regardless of how shitty the circumstances of her nomination were.

In what way did voting for 3rd party candidates last election stop perpetrators? In what way will voting for third party candidates stop perpetrators in future elections? By all means campaign for them, raise awareness, but if they can’t make it past the post your votes are wasted.

Until US moves away from FPTP system, you have to work with the system we’ve been dealt, while pushing for reform. Just wishing it was different doesn’t help anyone but the worst candidates.

Single issue voters and third party candidates because “both sides bad” is what got us into our current predicament.

Don’t be a single issue voter for third party candidates because “both sides bad”. Feel free to vote that way in the primaries, get out and campaign for the candidate you think is best, but when they don’t make it to round 2, don’t throw away your vote - that does nothing for US elections.

Also, fuck ICE, but “my opinion gets lots of upvotes on Reddit” is not a basis of government.
