France passes bill to allow police remotely activate phone camera, microphone, spy on people
  • Also, those statements appear to conflict. Why are they automatically excluding 'sensitive professions' yet stating 'it depends on the seriousness of the crime'?

  • funny title
  • Looks fine to me.

  • Favorite Spaceships
  • The black cruiser from before the fall of the Hegemony in the Hyperion Cantos tends to be the one that appears in my dreams the most, even 30 years later. Also the fucking tree ships.

  • pastor and chicken tacos from one of my favorite local spots
  • Yum.

    Had to get that in before the vegan appears to bring everyone down.

  • How does everyone feel about Oneplus phones?
  • I had a OnePlus One, and a 5, and I'm currently rocking a 9Pro. Fantastic phone, great photos, I don't mind OxygenOS. The only problem I have is because it's not supported by carriers in Canada (had no problems in the US), VoWIFI can be flaky which sucks.

  • The FCC wants to know why data caps are still a thing in 2023
  • Or when CallerID was an additional $8/month. It's fucking DNS for telephone numbers. Can you imagine if ISP's had charged extra for DNS and everyone decided to just memorize IP addresses instead?

  • Reddit says it’s ‘not acceptable’ for communities to go NSFW in protest
  • I left Reddit and deleted my accounts a few hours after the subs went dark and my feed dried up. I don't use mobile apps, I have no horse in that race at all.

    It just wasn't an enjoyable place to be anymore, and that's all because of spez.

  • Reddit Goes Nuclear, Removes Moderators of Subreddits That Continued To Protest
  • Best part of the article:

    “If this community remains private, we will reach out soon with information on what steps will take place,” Reddit said in a message to a small subreddit called Hentai_in_Peril

  • Reddit admins removing the NSFW tags from subs with porn in them
  • Is it though? It kind of feels like you broke up with someone but are still getting constant updates about who they're currently fucking the minute you left.

    I guess that's some people's kink.

  • KRAVEN THE HUNTER – Official Red Band Trailer (HD)
  • This will be one of the movies of all time.

  • Are there any IDEs or Extensions that emulate Visual Basic?
  • You can try RealBasic or TCL/TK, though I haven't used either of them in over a decade.

  • Canada’s plastic ban has a big hole in it. What can we do about grocery stores?
  • Right, but the volume of plastic entering landfills would have to be less now. While I appreciate that someone buying a half dozen peaches or tomatoes might need to double bag, the main purpose of those bags (at least in my mind) is to keep the contents separate from the other shopping items.

    No one wants their lettuce brushing up against that box of laundry detergent, or their plastic wrapped chicken leaking all over a a loaf of bread.

  • How screwed am I?
  • The biggest problem with that approach is your team loses their roadmap, funding for new initiatives, and ambition while that's happening. Your sprint backlog has nothing but minor tech deficit tickets in it, and overall it becomes a chore to get anything done.

  • Canada’s plastic ban has a big hole in it. What can we do about grocery stores?
  • Those statements conflict though. If the store buys thinner plastic bags to reduce costs, and more plastic is ending up in landfills as a result, then the store would have to be spending more on plastic bags.

  • Remove one letter from the title of a video game; what is the plot now?
  • Words With Fiends - Travel through the planes of Hell debating the denizens.

  • Remove one letter from the title of a video game; what is the plot now?
  • Warfame - The Hague simulator where you play as the former leader of a child army.

  • Brain chips to be tested on humans this year, Elon Musk says
  • It's pretty funny to see someone in the wild who actually thinks because those were Communist countries, the persons in charge must have been 'Leftists'.

    And damn those Leftists down in North Carolina, Kentucky, and Tennessee for growing all that tobacco using slave labor and then lobbying the government for the right to sell their product even though they knew it killed people!

    115 comments and -320 karma. Stay woke guy, you'll get em next time for sure.

  • Reddit claimed to have been hacked by BlackCat, and it has threatened to leak the data
  • If I stayed awake at night thinking of the habits of stupid people, I'd never get any sleep.
