Absolutely agree. An aspirational goal to an open standard is not an open standard.

Bluesky Social has pledged to transfer the protocol’s development to a standards body such as the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) in the near future.[11]

He has good taste, that’s a quiet tank.

Yeah, abjectly hate conversation view.

Looks like Peeve could use a knit cat cap…

Steel might be difficult to digest, but it is very caloric dense.

But stand-up comedy has something for everyone!

Oh, this is about the depressing nexus between programming and corporate culture. Carry on.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tagliatelle

Tagliatelle (Italian: [taʎʎaˈtɛlle] ⓘ; from the Italian word tagliare, meaning ‘to cut’) are a traditional type of pasta from the Italian regions of Emilia-Romagna and Marche. Individual pieces of tagliatelle are long, flat ribbons that are similar in shape to fettuccine and are traditionally about 6 mm (1⁄4 in) wide.[1] Tagliatelle can be served with a variety of sauces, though the classic is a meat sauce or Bolognese sauce.

As you said there are people who don’t want to switch from Chrome and Google, but at this point if you’re talking about a ten step fix-it plan, is really does make more sense to just use Firefox and DDG. Or searx, I’m pretty sure that’s still fewer steps.

Huh

Hexbear is an 8/10 on this scale

If the goal of this meme was to start a discussion pointing out all of the shortcomings or nuclear or was very successful.

Plenty of benefits, but pretty far from problem free.

When can we start talking about fusion again?

Predates the 8086, truly a marvel of the transition point of biological to mechanical engineering.

I get the attitude that when mocking shitbags anything is fair game, but this sort of thing lumps in Innocent people with the shitbag.

And literally everything else and cramming it into one universe

But don’t you know, you can’t tax the wealthy, they’ll just leave! It’ll never work, and you’ll never get more income.

That’s skipping over the fact that recovering deleted data, even if it isn’t overwritten, is not an “oops”. It it takes extra effort, and if that data isn’t being protected it would be overwritten incidentally as drives are used.

There is a big difference in a database between “flagging” data and actually removing the association of the data to the database.

The article is being disingenuous about data not being deleted unless it’s overwritten with 1’s and 0’s. Technically that’s true, but:

Most data being deleted is equivalent to a piece of paper being placed in a trashcan, and it’s “permanently” deleted when that trash gets hauled away to a landfill (or supposedly recycling but that’s another topic). Technically it’s still forensically accessible, but it isn’t accessible by any normal means. That piece of paper may not have been incinerated, but for the majority of practical purposes, it’s gone.

Apple never hauled the trash away, even though they claimed they did. There should be no way for them to accidentally restore those photos, just like there’s no way for you to accidentally get a piece of paper back in your trash bin after it’s been sent to a landfill.

Focusing on the 1s and 0s skips past the fact they failed to complete the first, obvious, essential step. If they didn’t delete it the simple way, they would never have gotten to the 1s and 0s step. This isn’t just a simple oversight, and those pictures were still very easily accessible, just not to the people who should have been in control of them.

Eh, or they just don’t want a forever history stored on their own computer any more than they want it stored on someone else’s computer.

This seems incredibly short sighted. People don’t like having their voice silenced, for good reason. Refuse them a chance now and they’re more likely to make their displeasure known in the general election when it will have a much greater effect.

Thank you!
