Comey likely can never face the same charges again.

As if it will stop these Nazis from drumming up some more bogus charges against him, or anyone else that dares challenge the orange führer.

I’d avoid cracking software. Every crack you download carries a nom-zero risk of infecting your PC with malware. I get your reluctance to switching to a different editing software, but it may be worth it.

I must’ve tried every free and paid photo editor out there, and none have feature parity with Lightroom Classic or Capture One. The thing most of them are missing is AI based tools like object masking, etc. Luminar Neo comes close, but I feel it’s only a matter of time before they go sub-only too. There’s a new free one called RapidRAW that has pitential.

This is the way.

Same for airfare, car rentals, cruises, etc. Cut out the fucking middle man. The booking sites used to be a nice way for consolidating your travel plans. But as everything else, they’ve enshittified themselves to a point where using them has become a major gamble.

Use them to find a deal, then go directly to the source. You may pay slightly more, but the fewer agreements you have between you and the service provider, the less chance you have of getting fucked over.

I’m gonna object that! The little fuckers are too coddled these days.

I’d argue that it hits gen pop even harder than it does us techies. How many times is a grandma going to switch video calling and messaging apps before her grandkids install WhatsApp on her phone? Is ANYONE going to touch any console Google releases in the future after the Stadia fiasco?

We techies are more open to trying out new technology, but for the other 99% of population though, tinkering is a nuisance rather than fun. They have better things to do than looking for ways to migrate their stuff out of the next Google project that’s being discontinued in 2 months.

It’s probably too late. Does anyone these days really believe that these companies actually delete anything?

After that - dubbing in realtime.

they don’t have the energy to be digital activists after they have finished a day of work.

Good news! With the rate corporations are laying off and firing workers, pretty soon they will have plenty of time for activism.

Pro-File Picture? I don’t know, people abbreviate things in stupid ways.

I’m OK with letting websites not allowing me to block ads, as long as I can hold them personally liable for content of any ads they serve up.

No? Then kindly fuck right off with this shit.

No, it’s that guy from Star Wars.

Wasn’t he also Mr. Troi, Deanna’s husband?

“You wouldn’t download a train!”

When they say “supports” they really mean “was tested with”.

People keep forgetting that “the cloud” is just someone else’s computer. You don’t want to pay for in-house experts to support your IT infrastructure? Welp, being locked out by a vendor is a side effect of that.

If you didn’t take prod down at least once in your career, are you even a developer?

Bookmarked to read later. Lots of interesting stuff that I’ve heard before (Tailscale, local auth, etc.) that I really need to consider for my own homelab.
