On accusations of censorship in service to facilitating mis/disinformation in support of a sociopolitical agenda.

He was also entered into the Guiness Book of Records for "strangest diet."

He ate the award plaque they gave him.

If it wasn't obvious that the Debian box is a parody, here's what the ~~Japanese~~ Chinese text along the top reads on each box:

Please read the instructions carefully and use it under the guidance of a physician. It is strictly prohibited to be used in food and feed processing.

Please read the installation instructions carefully and use it under the guidance of the administrator. It is strictly prohibited to use for server installation.

so yes, the title is correct-- this is not a coincidence, the Debian box was made explicitly for this joke

edit: thanks for the correction folks, honestly thought it looked more like Japanese than Chinese at first glance and I am obviously not an expert in either. Appreciate the call-out, very deserved.

“This is an isolated, ‘one-of-a-kind occurrence’ that has never before occurred with any of Google Cloud’s clients globally,”

yeah OP needs to provide this detail specifically as it changes everything.

If the Ethernet jack was not on a desk, then it wasn't there for them to use. If they unplugged a cable to make it accessible, that is unfortunately enough to be considered tampering.

If an Ethernet jack was not expressly provided, unoccupied, at the technology access station then yes the access to Ethernet information facilities was unauthorized and illegitimate and could carry legal ramifications. Say what you want about proprietary wifi drivers, you get the access you are given and any attempts to gain further access without authorization are defined as intrusion attempts and will more likely than not be treated as such to some degree. Because honestly, the libraries aren't funded enough to have great security and Ethernet security is harder than WiFi security in practice, despite the challenges being characterized by the same principles.

I propose we take these ideas and build our own drunk driving game that gets gradually more impossible to play and with more risks the longer the run continues. Like Getting Over It With Bennett Foddy meets that DPKR Crazy Taxi clone.

Wtf does this have to do with her gender? Are you claiming she does not top the charts in celebrity carbon emissions, but is being used as the scapegoat instead of a man?

The Conservatives aren't attacking her because of her gender, it's because of ~~their~~ her influence. Misogyny has nothing to do with it, they'd do the exact same with any celebrity of any identity/orientation because they're influence conflicts with their agenda, not because of their gender.

This smells a lot like ground-laying for radical feminist arguments, I can't find any other reason you would be here making a mountain out of an imaginary anthill. Moreover, I can't understand why anyone upvoting this would care to see a non-humorous PSA in a "hello fellow teens" vaporware frame on a surrealist/(whatever it's called) shitposting community unless it is meant to be satire.

edit: gendered a pronoun to make it concise who the subject was

Some Microsoft exec: "Hey, remember when TV remotes started getting a dedicated Netflix button?"

I swear to fucking Stallman, this is at least the fourth time this past week I've seen a unique post about this same fucking shit. One dude writes an article going "xrandr let's you rotate the screen 22 degrees" and the holiday tech news cycle just loses its mind.

This is called Automatic Content Recognition and it can be disabled in the settings, highly recommend doing that. It should have asked you whether you wanted it enabled when you set up the TV, as it's legally required to be opt-in in the US opposed to opt-out. Since you're using a Roku Smart TV, it specifically is taking two full resolution "video snapshots" every second.

Sure but this is actually Automatic Content Recognition, specifically Roku's video ACR that takes snapshots twice a second.

It's not like one of the six biggest power janitors of Reddit has been caught multiple times wrongfully deleting posts, using bot armies to manipulate votes and accepting money from marketing agencies for "consultancy" in social media guerilla marketing.

It's almost like the company doesn't give a fuck what their unpaid help does to the userbase or content because they still gets investments regardless.

Fuck spez, fuck GallowBoob, fuck awkwardtheturtle and fuck Sam Altman.

Nothing to do with upbringing.

I was borderline incel. Viewed positive female peers (family, etc.) as completely different from "tainted whores" or whatever.

Bad experiences, chronic isolation are what make an incel. Lonely men without supportive friend groups who turn to the Internet for their social needs. Rejection and dismissal from real world people, acceptance and empathy from the hive mind.

Loneliness does a lot more damage than a shitty upbringing.
