If anybody needs a catch up on the facts of this case:

I tried fluoride-free toothpaste for one year during college. Came home for the summer with 12 cavities.

Fluoride works people.

The DoD will soon be requiring itself and Contractors to start following Rev 5 of the NIST SP 800-53 Risk Management Framework. In this revision are more robust controls for Supply-side security, which the DoD has been trying to incorporate for over 10 years.

Americans should know that the military and DOD and it’s contractors do their best to purchase authentic hardware from reputable vendors, but there are exceptions and alternate procurement allowances if the need is great and the standard more secure lines are unavailable or simply on back order.

It’s usually then that some of the fake hardware makes it into use

China needs Brazilian grain. The rainforest is fucked

Is Gmail still the preferred email address to use on resumes?

What’s the vision for this game? In my mind it’s like they want to create some massive P2W MMOFPS that somehow casuals will want to play despite some whales having paid into it for 10 years for game breaking advantages?

I admit I know little about the game, I’m just not sure how they’re going to attract that user base.

You got Mail Mail!

As someone who watched millions of Texans cheer on Trump as he actively antagonized the wildfire situation in California, I would like to extend thoughts and prayers to Texans as they go through this trying time.

Good thing Biden will extend disaster aid to Texas without any fanfare or ridicule because it’s his fucking job to support the U.S.

If you’re gonna pay for Antivirus, shout out to ESET NOD32.

They have gotten a bit expensive though. I’m buying a 1 year sub for $10 on Black Friday.

Like most Chinese products I wouldn’t trust their quality or their customer support, and would expect the thing to spy on me 24/7.

The findings in a nut shell:

“Heterosexual men who play extreme metal guitar do not seem to be doing it to attract women, as has been suspected about musicians of other genres,” DeLecce told PsyPost. “Instead, it seems they are trying to impress and/or intimidate other heterosexual men with their skills.”

Also researchers mention their study suffers from small sample size.

Ukraine used to be one of the most corrupt countries in the world. It dates back to the dissolution of the Soviet Union in '91. All of those Russian satellite countries, including Russia itself had to deal with organized crime and oligarchs and the turmoil and discord they sowed.

This is not a criticism of Ukraine as much as it is an attempt to show those issues don’t just go away in war time, in fact it can extrapolate and make matters much worse as criminals and oligarchs engage in War Profiteering.

I’m actually quite proud of Ukraine and Zelenskyy for keeping a lid on many of those unsavory elements and leading a very effective war against a foreign invader.

China… because China is a black hole of information and will steal anything and everything for hegemonic advantage. If that DNA belongs to family or friends of powerful people, that could lead to a future blackmail advantage

Russia, because fuck the West.

The State is absolutely necessary to U.S. interests in the Middle East.

Tell me you’re getting dark money by Putin, without telling me you’re getting dark money from Putin.

Okay, deal. But they keep everything from Season 1 and 2 exactly the same, and then take seasons 3 and 4 in a new direction.

Y’all have to general strike or something

I was on reddit for 12 years. My time spent on that platform and posting directly correlates to when I first found it (posted a lot) vs. when I quit earlier this year.

Reddit in it’s infancy was great and the users and the subreddits, with a few notable exceptions were great too.

Once it got too big/popular… About 6 years ago you could note the decline and quality of the posting

“Anyone not powerful, rich or politically-connected enough to scrub their names from the record will be shown.”

This is 100% going to fuck all of the victims and none of the perpetrators.
