Every state office in Texas flipped last night. Texas is a blue state now. They’re ALL gone. Governor, lieutenant governor, attorney general, railroad commissioner (yes this matters), Supreme Court justices. If they were up for reelection, they got beat last night by democrats.

And that’s a shame I’ll have to live with for the rest of my life.

It would have cost you nothing not to say that.

I gotcha bud.
It’s a riff on the olive meme.

256 bit and 512 bit encryption are somewhat common. A 256 bit private key is 64 characters long (I’m simplifying this, don’t @ me about it being hex). A 512 bit private key is twice as long. That long string of random characters is what gives this type of encryption its power. It’s essentially unguessable, even with a computer and a lot of time.
Using “4” as your private key would significantly undermine security. Hackers can’t check every possible option for a 512 bit key, but they can certainly (and trivially) try simple numbers padded by 0’s, like our “4” private key.
You’ve taken a strong and proven system and made it trivially weak. That’s the joke. It’s not that funny, but that’s what you’re missing.
Hope that helps.

I read this as they are inspired by cosmic brownies, not made from them. It wouldn’t be unheard of, but blending an already baked and processed brownie into a drink seems…bad.

If this is real, my guess is it’s a fiber issue. Would definitely be thick and if you aren’t used to eating a bunch of fiber, it’ll really mess up your guts.

Yes. They text you promotions, when you go somewhere new and different rules are in affect, and you can often get basic support via text as well.

No. This is just about purchasing power of the dollar. The amount of assets you own doesn’t factor into this.

Yes. Although it’s not factual. It’s more like 30%

Pretty wild stuff.
The 32-year-old nurse, who works in wound care at a hospital in Billings, Montana, did a self-assessment. He was alert. There was little pain or blood. And the pole wasn’t moving. The group used a satellite-based communication device, a Garmin inReach, to contact local authorities and inform them of their plan to self-rescue.

Wild to go full cans except for a single 2 liter. Gotta wonder the reason behind that.

I’ve never understood the ghouls who tell me I’ll get “more conservative” as I get older. It baffles the mind how I’d go from believing everyone has a right to healthcare to “actually, fuck you, I’m good”.
Definitely preferable to get a bit fatter instead.

It’s what the other commenter said. Generally if you’re a good customer they refund you no questions asked.
I actually had a food delivery guy drop off my food but steal a package from my porch. Even with the footage, you should have seen how fast they clammed up.
So food theft, no problem. Other theft “get a subpoena”.

This is “country crock” which is a brand of American margarine. The meme is showing them eating the oxidized top layer.

You said it hasn’t materially changed software development, I’m showing how it has from a cyber security angle. I’m also half replying to others which is why it’s not directly connected. I got massively shit on and wanted to reply but I’m not really interested in replying to each specific comment calling me a fucking idiot.

Yeah, you’re so right. Nothing has changed.

These people are all probably hacks and the worst coders at their jobs. Right?

Coding.
As a life long software developer, the speed at which I can build things is increasing significantly with AI. I’m not talking about vibe coding specifically, but even for maintaining existing projects, it’s a pretty powerful tool.

I did a few reverse image searches and found this image, but couldn’t really find any attribution. The timestamps on the results I found were quite old. Pretty sure this isn’t AI.

there’s a clearly visible Coca Cola bottle shown attached to the gas price sign. This style of bottle wasn’t produced until 1977. historyoasis.com/…/coca-cola-bottle-design-histor…
-
for gas to be 22 cents, this would need to be pre-1950’s. In 1977, gas was around $0.60 on average. energy.gov/…/fact-741-august-20-2012-historical-g…
I’m pretty sure this is a modern image and the price shown is $2.11 (and 9/10’s of a cent).

This is not entirely accurate.
If you clam up pre-Miranda warning, it can be used against you (if you didn’t specifically exercise your rights).
Case law about this: supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/570/178/
Post-Miranda warning, there’s no issue. The warning literally advises you of your right to be silent.

I registered a domain and wrote an article to try to get a submission through. It worked for a few months, but was removed after that. Very vigilant.

Well yes, those are the rules. But if I see someone ripping out invasives themselves…
I didn’t see it.
- Comment on Snitches get switches 10 months ago:
I’m from the states and I took this as “national park” (or perhaps state) land. It’s land intended for ecological conservation.
- Comment on Snitches get switches 10 months ago:
I think the general idea is that you shouldn’t mess with conservation land. The general public isn’t educated enough to know what is invasive and what isn’t, so the rules say don’t disturb stuff. But if someone who was educated was in the park removing invasive species, they are almost certainly “breaking the rules”, but doing a net positive thing.
So if you see it…you didn’t.

I never understood either. To me, gas was always about convenience. It’s faster and easier than charcoal, but does it taste better?
