lmao bad luck, time to pick up that posting tempo.

Stomp Stomp Stomp

I dance the best.

Oh my bad. It's what I was doing for several months, hiding the element that shows notifications in my browser. lol I assumed you were doing the same thing.

I might have to revisit and re-evaluate. Maybe I missed some sequels to the original that I only half remember. I know I replayed it a bit with the bad PC port which definitely further ruined my impression of the past efforts.

With this one simple ublock trick you can pretend you never posted cringe

this is so affirming lol.

This post makes me miss streetfightradio.

hAmberger.

That massive three part (?) reflection of MMA / UFC stuff was pretty good, I thought. He's good when he's in his wheelhouse.

edit: er, again tho not a CTH production so yeah. I dunno. He's like a colour commentator or something, in the pod's dynamic.

Yeah but how long have you managed to maintain that exact number for?

edit: wait only 22 days ago. wtf it feels like months and yet time is flying by. I think I've broken my brain again.

If you were a shareholder in Amazon, do you think you could you sue them for pulling out of the large, developed, and wealthy market of Quebec?

Dunno enough about the law to say, but uh, based on vibes. Yeah sure you could try, if you were a big enough shareholder to be able to afford the lawfare.

And yes, in more recent years there are corporate charters written up that include lip service to environmental obligations and in some cases various social issues, so even the corporations (and in particular the large investors who are picking which horse to back) are sort of recognising the truth in your observation. But the cold logic of it all still generally discounts like, the welfare of workers in all but a tiny number of cases. I guess the "increase shareholder value" as the one true purpose of a corporation has kind of developed a bit since the 80s and 90s.

I'm probably not really adding anything useful to the discussion with these thoughts and observations though. Just acknowledging the correctness of your post.

I like Void linux quite a lot. No systemd to worry about.

But tbh there is never a guarantee that a clever backdoor doesn't exist or hasn't been found and not disclosed in any code. You don't have to necessarily code one in overtly so much as write some sloppy code that passes the smell test as being useful and not obviously malicious. Some major CVEs get discovered in very important and widespread software every year and who is to say whether the person who discloses them was the first to find them or whether they were intentionally crafted. 0dayz can be sold to the intelligence agencies via their contractor corporations for big money.
