She would have been amazing as a president, but if you really want to trigger a red wave of insane Trump voters foaming at the mouth about “her emails!” bringing back Hillary would definitely be the way to do it.

TBH, I support him more now than I did in the 2020 election, having seen him in office. He’s working the system to get some stuff done, even with the clown show congress he is presiding over. Is he perfect? No. But no elected official is ever going to be perfectly aligned with what everyone wants, unfortunately. Maybe we can get AOC to run in 2028?

But yes, the alternative of Trump basically dismantling the government and replacing it with some crazed shitshow is definitely a motivating factor too.

Wow, I totally see what you did there!

Spot the difference

As opposed to out in broad daylight, mid-interview and mid-speech, like Trump?

This is the stupidest thing they could possibly do. How in the hell would Trump be any better on that one specific issue?

Meanwhile, on every other issue he’s going to be a demented (literally) nightmare tearing down the foundations of democracy in any way he can so he can keep power this time.

EDIT: Meanwhile…

Hahaha, yeah I only buy books that I know I will be rereading down the line, because otherwise the foundations of my house would crumble under the weight.

My library allows requesting new books 3 months before they come out, so I usually try and be the guy requesting it and getting the first hold on it that way…

Gosh, that’s $1000 per year they tried to give that poor black woman that failed to caste a single provisional ballot, let alone 9 successful votes.

If you want to read something slightly closer to “normal” SF by him, The Embassy is good. Although my absolute favorite is still The City and The City, which is all about social mores and to a degree, castes.

LOL. So are you planning to vote Trump and basically let democracy fade away? Because I promise that is what will happen if he’s elected.

How in the actual fuck is this douche blaming Biden when the GOP have fought tooth and nail against ANY kind of positive change in this country under a DEM president??

The fact he’s managed the reforms and infrastructure and economic rebound that he has when the Supreme Court, every state GOP state attorney, and the GOP-led House have been walking anything he does accomplish back as fast as they can is practically a miracle, frankly. I mean, look at what he has accomplished despite the odds.

This is such clickbait. Let’s see, on the left, a candidate who is “old” but has done a ton of good studf in the last 4 years (but not all good stuff, obviously). On the right, a guy a couple years younger but obviously suffering a touch of dementia and Russian blackmail, who has promised to be a dictator on day 1, who has made extreme efforts to hold into classified documents, who has fraud cases, racketeering cases and various other cases pending against him, etc etc.

Which to choose, the decision is so harrrrrd!

Everything you’ve said aside from the CSAM scan doctor thing has absolutely nothing to back it up so far. (And for the record, I absolutely agree CSAM scanners can be wrong—a human needs to be involved at some level, which they were in the system Apple devised. At any rate, I guess this convo is over as we obviously inhabit very different worlds.

*blink blink*

Scan private iCloud images? What part of the E2E did you miss? Also, if this is the plan I think you’re talking about for CSAM, they actually abandoned that, even though it was a pretty decent plan…

Well, it would most likely show up in the network traffic if they were doing that for starters. And no one doing security analysis on iOS has ever mentioned that AFAIK. And since Apple bases about 90% of their marketing on protecting your privacy, that would be very bad for them as a company.

I mean, what’s stopping someone poisoning a library on open source? That’s actually provably happened.

Which is not to ding open source, which I quite like too. Just saying you are running certain risks no matter what you choose and in a phone OS, if you just want it to work and not think about it, I personally feel like Apple is a decent risk still.

OS 9 on macOS did me dirty when I tried to delete it for the final time. The OS X operating system folder is named System. And the OS 9 folder is named System Folder.

So I typed rm -rf System and then tried to type the \ character so I could put in the space between the two words. Which is right above the Return key. Guess what I hit instead of \…

I hit control-C almost immediately but it still got through C inside the System folder. Apparently nothing absolutely vital lives in the A-C folders, btw. I was able to even reboot and it all came up normally. Only thing was I couldn’t run any Carbon apps (which was kind of crucial at the time) so I still had to do a reinstall of the OS.
