Fuck your Mitsubishi, I’ve a horse outside!

Kowai yo…

Either that, or every company has woefully underpaid/incompetent IT people

It’s this one. Cox Communications, one of the largest telecommunications companies in the US with $11 billion in revenue, recently patched a bug on their self-serve portal that allowed anyone to access any customer’s profile. The bug was that server requests weren’t being authenticated. If you entered the right info into the URL bar you’d be given a page with anyone’s customer info. No login needed.

This is going to affect hard working Canadians (who make more than $250,000 a year in capital gains)!

Chess player Andrea Botez started an onlyfans page where she posted videos of herself being mated.

You hear about that gay Irish couple? Gerald Fitzpatrick and Patrick Fitzgerald.

I couldn’t read the OP paywalled article but other similar articles mostly cite students from low-income families struggle the most. My guess is there are now more kids living in low-income families than before, and declining literacy rates is just a byproduct of growing wealth inequality.

It’s like I’m looking at the man in the mirror

Fun game! Swap “AI” with “blockchain” and put it into a search engine. You win if you can find the same headline from an article a few years ago!

Square Enix says Embracer sales will help it invest in blockchain (2022)

I got a friend in game dev. They’ve worked for 3 companies over 6 years. None of the titles they have worked on were ever released.

The title they’re currently working on has had its funding cut (by Embracer Group) and the CEO of the studio is desperately trying to find another source of funding. Everyday they go into work expecting to be told the studio is shutting down.

Game dev certainly seems to suck the souls out of creative people who just want to make something fun.

It’s probably one of the more fair ways for people to get paid for sex work. I’ve read stories of porn actresses making $5,000 a month through big name studios switching to OnlyFans and making $30,000 a month.

I’d say even in general it’s better for people who create content to sell directly to consumers instead of working for a corporation.

I cast Pot of Greed

Restricting democratic positions based on an undemocratic process isn’t good. If a corrupt government wanted to keep someone from being voted out they could just deny security clearances to their political enemies and suddenly the people can’t vote for who they want.

Like others have said, Poilievre could get security clearance if he wanted to. He’s not a foreign agent, he’s just an asshole. He’s currently arguing that those who read the classified documents detailing interference by foreign spies are doing nothing to fix it. He loses that argument if he reads the documents, because now he’s just like everyone else.

Well there’s your problem

He spends a lot of time discussing why pedophilia isn’t rape.

Of a woman having sex with a minor, he said “I wish an attractive woman had ‘abused’ me that way when I was 14.” He directly addressed child pornography by saying that “making such photos should be a crime, and is a crime, but that is no reason to prohibit possessing copies of the photos.” He defended pedophilia, in general, in saying that “there is little evidence to justify the widespread assumption that willing participation in pedophilia hurts children.”

It’s a UK law firm filing the class action suit. They’re also suing Sony for £5 billion for the same thing. It’s just lawyers looking for money.

Worst one is probably Apple. They just announced “Apple Intelligence” which is just ChatGTP whose largest shareholder is Microsoft. Figure that one out.
