  • How the Signal Knockoff App TeleMessage Got Hacked in 20 Minutes

    Jump

  • Later in the article, it talks specifically about the server-side archives being stored in plain text. That’s why the hacker was able to access messages. This isn’t about the local copies on phones.

  • Food For Millions Rots in Storage After Trump’s USAID Cuts

    Jump

  • When people started saying “The cruelty is the point.”, I was skeptical and thought there had to be other motivations that we just weren’t privy to. But every day brings more evidence that the “cruelty is the point” folks were right and I was just overthinking it.

  • They All Signed the “Harper’s” Letter. Where Are They Now?

    Jump

  • Every person who legit supports freedom of speech made fun of the Harper’s letter and it ruined Harper’s reputation (to the degree it had one in the 2020’s) for a generation. I would guess fewer than 10% of the signatories signed it in good faith or knew they were signing something that people like Bari Weiss’s clownfraud ass were even asked to sign. She’s not a public intellectual. She’s a public buffoon.

  • YouTube's new ad strategy is bound to upset users: YouTube Peak Points utilise Gemini to identify moments where users will be most engaged, so advertisers can place ads at the point.

    Jump

  • We might need a few reforms to our economic model where the stupidest sociopaths alive get lots of money and teachers and nurses do not.

  • Cartel Makes Secret Deal With Trump Admin So El Chapo’s Family Can Cross U.S. Border

    Jump

  • And people said Trump could never live up to Reagan’s legacy. He’s already half senile, making shady deals with cartels and despots, ruining the tax code, and trying to build a missile defense system that will never exist.

  • WATCH: Ben & Jerry’s Co-Founder Gets Dragged Out of RFK Jr. Hearing in Wild Protest Scene

    Jump

  • Good #lifehack I’ll have to try.

  • WATCH: Ben & Jerry’s Co-Founder Gets Dragged Out of RFK Jr. Hearing in Wild Protest Scene

    Jump

  • Ah, shit. My wife and I use Jif peanut butter and Knorr bouillon cubes in bed and I eat a Vaseline and Q-tip sandwich during my lunch break at least once a week. Can just one global conglomerate be ethical so we can enjoy life’s little pleasures?

  • Malcolm Kenyatta says David Hogg is distorting DNC decision

    Jump

  • I have bad news about the DNC being a functional organization. There’s a reason Obama setup a whole separate organization and actually won. Neera Tanden runs the Center for American Progress again despite fucking it up last time and everyone they put on TV is somehow the least charismatic 75 year-old centrist in the entire caucus who just says whatever.

    The DNC and entire Democrat establishment could just not exist and more Democrats would get elected. Their learned helplessness expired in like 2003 and they’re still putting it in their coffee as if nothing went sour.

  • Max pivots back to HBO Max as WBD rethinks ability to compete with Netflix

    Jump

  • I like how he’s pissed off every major and micro-demographic. Prestige TV fans. Sports fans. Comic book fans. People who watch reruns of Bones at 2am to help them fall asleep. Old men watching Shawshank Redemption for the 300th time because they’d rather die than pay money for digital media. Probably horse girls, somehow.

  • Max pivots back to HBO Max as WBD rethinks ability to compete with Netflix

    Jump

  • The app I sometimes have to use to watch a basketball game really shouldn’t rebrand as much as it does. I’m starting to think the CEO might be the dumbest fuck alive.

  • 'Totally F**ked Us': Top Dem Adviser Goes Off On Biden

    Jump

  • I’m torn on whether to give a single fuck or two shits about what any Democratic consultant says. (It’s David Plouffe to save you a click). They’re all like 75 years old and insulated from the consequences of policy. They just go on cable TV for 15 minutes a day and read from a script as if nothing has changed in 25 years. (Plouffe was an Obama campaign advisor so maybe not 25 years for him but well over a decade.)

  • Democrat ousts incumbent Republican in Omaha mayoral race

    Jump

  • Microsoft laying off about 6,000 people, or 3% of its workforce

    Jump

  • Who will fuck up the settings, control panel, registry, etc. interfaces now? The person who keeps putting Candy Crush on the start menu like it’s their life mission?

  • Chief Supreme Court Justice Gives Biggest Sign Yet of Trump Disapproval

    Jump

  • I trash the judges all the time. I’d invite them over to discuss it but I take a maximalist view of the third amendment and worry I’d have to be a true soldier1 without permission if I got any sass from Alito or Thomas.

    1 Courts have yet to rule on whether No Limit Soldiers count and I don’t want to start the case in the 5th Circuit.

  • What's your hot sauce of choice?

    Jump

  • Crystal and Sambal, depending on the dish. Tabasco if it’s gumbo or soup or whatever but Tabasco is more concentrated and I like it best as an ingredient than as a sauce.

  • Microsoft laying off 3% of workforce in biggest round of cuts since 2023 - report

    Jump

  • That’s it. The last straw. I’m putting my Zune on eBay and investing in a Creative ZEN X-Fi2 64 bit.

  • Is it generally safe to be openly gender non-conforming in big cities? I'm tired of hiding in the closet.

    Jump

  • I’d say in the U.S., no one will even notice in New Orleans, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Miami, maybe Chicago and NYC but a place like Dallas or Jacksonville would be less tolerant. A place in the northeast like Boston or DC would be culturally less permissive but you’d be safe. They’re tolerant but have a puritan history (Boston) or are culturally sort of conformist (DC), for lack of a better term. DC is very much not hostile but it’s small-c conservative in the sense that everyone wears suits to work and it’s not counter-culture.

    I live in New Orleans and am cishet — so don’t take my word for it — but even my “boring” high school friends own multiple dresses because of Mardi Gras and Red Dress Run and events like that. No one cares about gender conformity here but drive more than a hour away and it can get unsafe quick.

    I can’t speak for coastal California but I’ve been there a bunch and it seems similar. No one is even gonna notice in San Francisco. It’s just expensive as fuck.

    Most urban centers — especially coastal ones — are pretty chill about it in 2025, I would say. But you should ask residents. New Orleans and San Francisco are, in my experience, not even going to notice. But most cities aren’t actively hostile. If you prefer suburban life, I’d look at college towns.

  • Trump Is Said to Be Getting Qatari 747 for Air Force One, and Post-Presidency Travel

    Jump

  • God willing they put a camera and microphone in the presidential loo and have to deal with the consequences of their actions.

  • What is the dumbest tattoo you have ever seen?

    Jump

  • This is hardly the dumbest one originally but I worked construction in high school and college. One old dude had gotten “RESPECT” tattooed on his abs in his youth. By the time I met him, he had a beer belly and had had some injuries and surgeries. It was just a completely different font/message.

    By contrast, the best tattoo I’ve seen is a friend who is a musician. She has musical notes tattooed behind her ears. You wouldn’t even know if she did her hair a certain way (for a job interview or something) but when she was ready to party, the musical notes were on display.

    I also knew a guy who was an artist who had an amazing sleeve. He obviously cared about the artistic aspect; he literally flew to Japan multiple times to have it done because he cared that much about being a canvas for the specific artist he chose. That was the most impressive. I like the subtlety of the music notes but I’m not against going all out. It’s really the middle-ground — like a drunk tattoo that meant something at the time — where people regret it later.
