My guess is the DDoS attack Arch has been dealing with.

Trump has had several GOP "rhinos" primaried because they wouldn't bend the knee.

• Rusty Bowers: The former Arizona House Speaker was censured by his state party and targeted by Trump after he refused to help overturn the 2020 election results in Arizona.

• Liz Cheney: As the former chair of the House Republican Conference and a leading critic of Trump, she was a primary target. Trump endorsed Harriet Hageman, who defeated Cheney in the 2022 Wyoming primary election.

• Doug Ducey: Trump called the former Arizona governor a "RINO" for not engaging with his efforts to challenge the 2020 election outcome in the state.

• Larry Hogan: Trump has repeatedly labeled the former Maryland governor a "RINO," though Hogan has remained popular in his state.

• Brian Kemp: The Governor of Georgia earned Trump's ire for certifying the 2020 election results in his state. Trump endorsed David Perdue in the Republican primary, but Kemp won re-election.

• Mitch McConnell: Trump has repeatedly attacked the Senate Minority Leader, though he has not been able to directly replace him.

• Lisa Murkowski: One of the few remaining senators who voted to convict Trump in his second impeachment trial, Murkowski has faced heat from Trump's allies and activists, though she was not successfully primaried.

• Ken Paxton: When the Texas Attorney General faced impeachment charges, Trump defended him and called his Republican opponents "RINOs".

• Ben Sasse: The former Nebraska senator was another Republican who voted to convict Trump. Sasse later left the Senate to become president of the University of Florida.

• Pat Toomey: The former Pennsylvania Senator, who also voted to convict Trump, retired from the Senate at the end of his term.

Well, not entirely true. They do it in the US based on your public voter registration data, giving rise to companies that only exist to suck up and sell that data to groups looking to game the system instead of giving people what they want/need/deserve.

[Disclaimer: I'm not Jewish] This seems more antisemite than boycotting Israel does, because this (IMHO taking into account the disclaimer) seems like someone that can't separate a government from a people, or basically "everything Jewish is the same". Similar to how many in government can't separate being Muslim, or Arab, from [insert US declared "terrorist country"].

Doubling every year would be crazy unsustainable at Google scale, but to tell employees you need to do so every 6 months seems like a fever dream of someone that doesn't understand what they are asking (or knows they aren't responsible for actually doing it). The old "just throw it over the fence" approach that corporate kool-aid drinkers love because they can take credit and shift blame.

Never forget Contra, though I have forgotten the Mike Tyson code. 😭

Oh man, the conspiracy theories that would have come out of Trump deep frying his paws. The Right wing propaganda machine went crazy when Trump had issues at his UN visit over stuff the UN said was at least partly due to his own team. If he burned himself they'd have put that franchise owner on a plane to El Salvador that afternoon.

Trump marveled repeatedly about how the fries are packaged, with the aid of a scooper-like device.

“Never touched by a human hand,” he said at one point. “Nice and clean.”

Is a small clip of him making fries between 24-50 secs of the video at the top of the page.

Just go CachyOS if you can't be bothered with Arch proper. Running an insecure container layer that brings another whole distro so you can run an app is weird when flatpaks exist for this purpose, and are much better suited for this. Seems like you're creating a "problem" that doesn't exist and then coming up with the most complicated way to solve this made up "problem".

If he actually goes through with it, everyone will know because it shows up on seismographs, something he's apparently ignorant of...

Remember, this is the same man that thinks the stealth bomber is literally invisible, or that you neutralize a magnet simply by getting it wet, or that you take fries out of the boiling oil with your hands (he learned you don't while doing his pretend day at McDonald's).

When companies have to start funding their own networks because ISPs are all down, or just known to be compromised due to bad actors, it's going to hit capitalism over the head pretty hard. This is a great way to tank the stock market though if you are betting against "Tech" companies.

1. Short all Tech stocks
2. Allow "free market" to regulate itself (because less regulation and capitalism always work so great together)
3. Make $ hand over fist when market begins to tank because ISPs can't be trusted to route their traffic because of all exploits

Carr said the vote scheduled for November 20 comes after “extensive FCC engagement with carriers” who have taken “substantial steps… to strengthen their cybersecurity defenses.”

Well if they say their doing it, then surely they are, and not just because the law your trying to change required them to. It's like when Republicans want to deregulate the banks because they are doing so well not exploiting predator loans and/or over leveraging loans trying to make even more $. Deregulation cannot, and will not, work in a capitalist environment. Regulation is the guard rails required to keep capitalism from cannibalizing itself.

Yeah, but that is a task made more difficult by my reluctance to be social.
