メカニカル忍者 I follow some video games, law, politics, infosec, and metal. I am so far left of Bernie that I can't see him without help from JWST. He/him, but as the end of the old joke goes, just don't call me late for dinner.

I will say, I appreciate the honesty here that the current radical majority on the Supreme Court has zero respect for precedent and has just made up a brand new standard of "history and tradition" and then invented bullshit versions of history to fit that.

They’re not “gifts.” They’re bribes. Clarence Thomas took $4 million in bribes from billionaires. Everyone understands this, and yet he still holds a lifetime position as one of the most powerful people in our country. Unrig the Supreme Court.

It sure would be comical if Samuel Alito had recently published an opinion in which he expressed strong feelings about flags and wrote that passersby viewing a flag flying over a building would naturally assume the flag conveys some message on the owner's behalf

For those keeping score at home, 22% of the justices with lifetime Supreme Court appointments had a partner who either (a) texted the White House supporting the insurrection or (b) flew a flag supporting the insurrection outside their house. What would you say if you saw it in another country?

Our dog lived to be 12, somehow, while eating more chocolate than me. Every time we thought we had chocolate out of his reach around e.g. easter, we came home to him laying in a pile of wrappers.

When I talk about digital privacy, there is always some smug genius who shrugs and tells me, "Who cares? We all know we don't have any privacy anyway." Nothing could be more wrong. Convincing you that the fight is already over to the way people in power get you to stop resisting.

Threat models matter. When a platform/service/app tells you they are “private” or “secure” always ask “from whom?” Criminals, domestic abusers, law enforcement, data brokers, and intelligence agencies are all different attackers with very different capabilities.

Do we have facts in evidence that he's sexist, as opposed to just a tantruming billionaire? Forgive my blind spot - it is so exhausting trying to keep up with his nonsense.
