  • What did you get fired for?

    Jump

  • Was in the hospital for two months with mono. In ICU on a respirator for 4 weeks of that.

    Was fired from my job, evicted from my apartment, and my girlfriend at the time decided to cheat on me while I was in there.

    Good times.

  • Preventing their shitty brute force protection from allowing someone to get a users MS account password because they are FORCING users to use a non-local account?

    The computer would have to store a hash locally to authenticate that account offline, so this is very likely why this is here. Because they've enabled a path to brute forcing their cloud accounts without their servers knowing.

    The windows shithole is just layers of bad design all the way down.

  • Documenting the descent into madness

  • When I first started learning PCs and Linux, I just went to the local thrift stores and Value Village. Even today people turn in all kinds of perfectly working compute hardware, mostly just old. Consumer stuff doesn't retain much resale value and many cannot be bothered with trying to sell it, so it ends up in the dump, at the recyclers, in thrift stores, or on classified ads like Craig's list, kijiji and the like.

    EBay usually only sees the stuff that can fetch a worthwhile dollar.

  • Yeah this was way more traumatizing than anything Signs had.

  • It says "seen over" which means in the sky, not sure why people keep guessing things on the ground.

    It looks like either something leaving or reentering the atmosphere. Could be yet another Starlink sattelite deorbiting.

  • Before that oil was moved through pipelines it was moved by train, I'm sure that could be arranged to bridge some of the demand. Not perfect by any means, but it would help until we could solve the pipeline problem. At this point we need to plan for a "when" scenario.

  • U.S. bill calls for more integration between Canadian, American border agents

    Jump

  • You mean the information sharing? No its just data they can use if they decide to go through with annexation of the country so they can find all the people they want to send to the Gulags or prosecute for thought crimes right away.

  • U.S. bill calls for more integration between Canadian, American border agents

    Jump

  • Bill C-2 covers information sharing, and petition e-6838 is opposing it, and this is the second time I've heard of this cooperation between border control agencies and last heard of it being discussed between Carney and Trump, though I do not recall agreements made. If this is being introduced in the US, then it seems likely some agreement was made or is expected to be made, so I'm asking if someone knows of existing corresponding legislation or petitions.

    Jump

  • Where is the Canadian side of this legislation? Where is the petition to stop this shit?

    I'd email my MP but unfortunately NDP lost in my region and we have Aaron Fucking Gunn who is just a little PP Parrot that wants stronger ties with the US like all the Conservatives.

  • I'm not sure why he's wasting time on that orange turd. He should be getting the rebuild of our lost industries going and telling the americans to GTFO and eat dirt at this point. Stengthen ties with EU and Mexico now.

  • Fuck trump and the USA.

  • We needed EXPERTS to tell us THIS?

    Universe help us, how stunned are people that this wasn't IMMEDIATELY obvious.

  • A Canadian politician is openly spreading Nazi propaganda

    Jump

  • He's just the latest in Rupert Murdoch's line of pets he has trying to spread his shit across Canada.

    Harper was one too but thankfully his plan to implement Sun news, which would have been a news channel that was the Canadian equivalent of Fox, was never brought to fruition.

    But sadly much of rural Canada drinks the Fox news firehose.

  • Why do you use what I gave you?!

    Jump

  • I love my field, I hate the majority of jobs in my field because while tech can do many cool and wonderful things and could be solving many more issue, most companies are busy doing what one percenters want and pushing for the least effort solutions and everything is always a cram. No breathing space, no time to enjoy the product and reflect on what to do next. Just cram, enshittify, add tracking, automate away your peers, do more with less people so we can fire more people.

    I'm so sick of the efficiency rat race that capitalist investors demand.

  • flohmarkt a federated alternative to ebay and facebook marketplace

    Jump

  • That's fair, and people will use things different than the intention of the thing if it suits them. My point was more to highlight that you cannot group all things where buying and selling happen as "marketplaces" and expect the same protections/moderation etc.

    This new tool is to replace the local ads/garage sale like equivalents with something self hosted. EBay is not one of these, regardless of how people choose to use it. As an auction site it is on a different level in both functional and legal experience. You cannot expect that from Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace Kijiji, or you local newspaper ads or garage sales.
