Just another voice yelling in the void.
I’ve probably protested for your rights. I’m definitely on at least one list.
I believe firmly that everyone should have a fair shake and as much freedom as they can be afforded - so long as it does not encroach on the freedoms of others.
Occasionally a wordy cunt who will type a book when a sentence or two will suffice.

Pinball and that one Weezer vid would like a word.


I find that outside of chasing diminishing returns - the biggest boost to upload speeds generally involves getting service that isn’t from spectrum or comcast.
The speeds you are suggesting seem to imply you are on some cable carrier. Be consciously aware that there is frequently fine print stating up to on your meager upload allotment. You may be optimising against unseen forces.
It looks like you put in some effort on tuning which is awesome - and hopefully is helpful to some as a starting point… but from experience tuning is often very unique to each individual setup. That said: kudos on drawing that much out of your setup.


You don’t always get what you want…
Here we have a rare picture of a lobbyist in its natural habitat - congress.


Dont forget how many of these twats name their companies after shit that literally screams “we are the baddies.”
Goodness who ever would have thought that “child crushers inc :)” would be crushing children?


It was always about control. No tin foil. Just reality. When you get to these levels of disproportionate power, greed, and corruption… you need to be able to quickly “stamp out” anything that even vauguely looks like a threat.
They dont want us to communicate. Obviously. Communication leads to revolution. No secrets. No encryption. No rights. Be a good drone and keep your head down. Smile for the cameras.


Middleman all the things. It pains me to say that, in all likelihood, this period of time will be known for nothing but reinventing something that already exists - making a worse version of it - then enshitify.
What blows me away is while most people read dystopian stories and view them as cautionary tales… these rejects are using it as a framework.


The other 39% are optimistically hoping the bubble will pop within that 2 years and there will still be a market to buy from.
I have no such illusions - but a bit of me wonders if, possibly, this may drive the pc market back in the direction of its origins:
Devs were incentivised to write more efficient, leaner code because resources were expensive.
PC users focused on squeezing every. goddamn. drop. of performance out of their existing gear. Overclocking wasnt about making your 200 fps into 300 - it was about making that aging beast play something it had no right to even run.
I dont look forward to the coming days with any optimism… but maybe this whole scene needed a purging fire to foster new growth and diversity.
Or maybe we’ll just purge the source of these issues. Or both. Both would be nice. I can dream.


This is a feel good poison pill to set precident. How do you stop developers from fiddling in their own hardware to adjust settings? Allow the poor defenseless manufacturers to lock down the system and give them more legal ways to attack people researching it. Wouldnt want someone to figure out that the subscription service we installed in their car is locally controlled! Goodness an error? Only our certified dealers can…
This is being approached in a way to weaken right to repair and ownership rights.

Sounds like the residents are free and clear to start a lawsuit of their own and name both the officials and the datacenter as the targets of it. A little something to say fuck you to the datacenter and a reminder to the civil servants as to who they serve.


Really appreciate the trailblazing done by Firefox here…
Can we just normalize beating ceos with blunt objects so we dont need to shuffle browsers every year? In fact I think that one simple trick may just fix society… And if not: it’ll be fantastic stress relief.


France successfully destroys encrypted messaging and immediately begins work on the rampant credential / financial / personal information theft. They believe that this “plain text” hacker is responsible. Who is this mastermind?


Dude is just a wealth of interesting videos.
Edit and speaking of which… He dropped this doozy today: https://youtu.be/lA8WuXDXfcI


Or just sleep on the job. Collect a paycheck and waste their time, money, and resources hopefully hiring another person who will do the same.
Fuck em right in the wallet.
It is morally correct to research executives from companies such as these and give them all the undesired attention they deserve until the problem “works itself out.”
Roach problems get solved faster in the light and when you go for the root of the infestation.





Makes fire pretty efficiently, oddly enough.
Every home labber will eventually have that coming of age trial: ritual combat with the monster they have constructed. Glad to see you got the best of yours haha.
