  • Well, uh, try training your AI with the lessons learned, and hope it doesn't instantly pretend it never happened the very next day.

    The one value proposition for juniors is that though they screw up a lot, they learn by screwing up. High turnover and curtailing your junior experience using AI are major technical mistakes on management's part.

    Luckily this malware was relatively benign, changing bitcoin addresses to malicious ones in the clipboard, so if you don't use crypto then you're fine against this attack. No one's funds have made it into the attacker's wallet yet.

  • Then they fight you: How the ‘No Kings’ protests are winning America | A massive turnout of 7 million and a panicked White House showed Saturday why the No Kings protests matter, a lot.

    Jump

  • Trump posting a video dropping bombs from his asshole on the protests shows that he does, in fact, care a lot about the protest so he is doing as ridiculous of a thing as he can to counteract it...

  • Bring that message to your local No Kings rally.

  • Maybe as a Christmas gift to myself. My current one is an EIE pro that came with my guitar second hand. The linux "driver" only sort of works.

  • The Trump administration is positioning the upcoming No Kings protests as an excuse for crushing dissent

    Jump

  • I agree on much of your points and definitely acknowledge the risks of movements losing steam after achieving only modest wins. My take though is Tantrump's compulsive need for attention is why I think No Kings is not going to peter out on its own. Canada's boycotts were thought to have gone away but constant remarks of annexation have helped people en masse to maintain it.

    I think it's important to recognize everyone's tolerance is different and Americans aren't used to protesting and striking like they do in Europe, Québec, parts of Asia and South America. Even top level commenters here voice hesitancy for the risks to their safety from the gestapo or provocateurs escalating things. The size and all-inclusiveness of these protests and sufficient advance preparation against violent provocations have kept it peaceful, and have successfully slowed down ICE agents' escalation. Despite federal agents still acting recklessly, if only the most dedicated and prepared folks were there then the media narratives of 'militant antifa rioters' would be believed by the general public.

    Portland has laid bare Trump's entire plan is to "aura farm", and that it falls flat when it gets turned into a joke. The goal seems to be to project power when his government sends in the military to end all the crime, homelessness, drug use and dissent. Trump is weak, his government departments filled with incompetent hacks. His strongman image leaks air each month the US survives, so the further the momentum can be sustained the better.

  • If you want to delay your switch to Linux, there are scripts to enroll in the ESU, but unfortunately the local account script stopped working on the one I used. Have not tested massgravel's. Other options are to get Win 10 LTSC, or keep your system disconnected from the Internet.

    An aside: My main desktop is Linux but I am currently trying Winboat to get the last piece of my hardware dependence off (my 20 year old DAC and rocksmith 2014) to work. Then, I can finally nuke Windows off of my secondary laptop because I'm sure as hell not giving it Win 11.

    Not sure who still buys Trump products other than people who want money to be taken away from them.

  • The Trump administration is positioning the upcoming No Kings protests as an excuse for crushing dissent

    Jump

  • I like No Kings because it lowers the barrier of entry for regular people to become politically active, and it completely undermines the narrative in the article that someone had enough money to pay for hundreds of simultaneous protests across the country and in Canada Mexico and Europe.

    Each person should participate to the level they are comfortable with and can manage their own group's safety. But I also think that since it's been a few months, the conversation should shift towards, "How can we help the immigrants and legal resident non-citizens in our city? How can we make the most of the power we have together to stop the actions of the fascist government? Can we raise funds and get support to pull off a national general strike? Can you sign a strike card?", since by next year a "Pokémon GO to the polls" type campaign is way too little, far too late.

    Let Fox News doublethinkers doublethink and portray whatever false narrative. The solidarity of people is built over time and I think they will feel more empowered each rally and be able to take more effective action. It's up to all of us as much as core organizers to harness that energy into something useful.
