Yeah, this is a decades old ongoing issue with companies. They see pretty much anything IT related as a money sink that needs to be trimmed to the bare bones while giving salespeople absurd bonuses. Then they get all surprised pikachu faced when they get hacked or hit with ransomware and their last backup was 6 months ago when they let the IT department go without warning and hired some guys from overseas to handle it remotely.

All month? This is the 342nd day of Halloween. All days lead to Halloween.

There has definitely been a trend in the media of downplaying CP and CSAM recently. I thought others were crazy when they said it, but after paying attention a bit, yeah, it's happening. My theory is that it is because of algorithms filtering stuff like that out.

It's an abuser controlling his victim. They will go to whatever lengths they think they need to. Nothing is too dark except maybe murder, and even that's iffy.

Waiting for the inevitable man to come in and go "But how are we supposed to unify if we keep dividing ourselves?" or "You'd have a fit if men complained about women attending a male only event."

There's a convergence of issues. First, and probably foremost, users are idiots. So it has to be able to be operated by a 5 year with a learning disability. Second, implementing security costs money up front. It is cheaper to let the customer deal with the fall out, then do damage control on the cheap, and keep going. Third, users can't be assed to access things that a 5 year old with learning and physical disabilities and a peanut butter and jelly sandwich in one hand can't access. These are all typical issues stuff is engineered towards. This is why you see this same basic issue crop up over and over again.

Dude knows he's going down hard in the next 12 months. He has managed to skirt the law this long, but that long arm is tugging at him and he's scared shitless.

This judge already appears to have an axe to grind with Trump, so, uh, it probably would have been easier with a jury.

That isn't weird. This should be default behavior for everyone. If it was fewer people would get caught by scams. I also look at the sender's email. All the ones I've ever received have come from domains not affiliated with the company they purport to represent. I've taught all my non-security savvy friends to do this, too.

There is no "but still". Here's the thing about language - it is constantly changing. Words change their meanings all the time. I cannot go to the 18th century and use modern vernacular and not be misunderstood, nor could I go to the 22nd century and use it and not be misunderstood. Quit acting like English is some static thing that hasn't changed. You're showing exactly how ignorant and uneducated you really are, even without having to use such an ignorant term as "rainbow press".

I mean, it's the cornerstone of the private healthcare system here. So much so that ER docs are actually suing private equity firms for practicing medicine without a license.

California is not right to work, that means that a person can work in a union shop without being a member of the union. You are thinking of at will.
