Not sure why the down votes for the article, maybe the article was updated after you read it but these were listed:

"DataByCloud Access — Posed as a productivity or security-related tool while secretly harvesting session tokens.

Tool Access 11 — Intercepted authentication data and blocked access to administrative and security settings.

DataByCloud 1 — Exfiltrated authentication cookies to attacker-controlled servers.

DataByCloud 2 — A variant with extended persistence and administrative interference capabilities.

Software Access — Enabled bidirectional session hijacking and long-term account takeover. "

Subpoena?!? those were for the before times. Now just say you're investigating a murder while looking for a woman calling abortion clinics, no legal access, review or consequences for breaking the law.

Ha, Marvin was anything but low esteem though! Miserable, frustrated, cynical, yes, but certainly knew how underutilized he was and constantly made reference to it because he knew his own capability. It was the idiot universe with which he couldn't reconcile.

It would probably be a short series but I wonder how a cartoon strip about a low-esteem appliance would carry.

Taking a bullet is much easier than many challenges parents have to face, take on, bear or navigate for their children. A bullet, presumably, would be fast to suffer and/or die from.

I live in a much smaller city in a different state and have presented to the traffic and safety board about rampant non-vehicular danger in nearly every point in the current system, how there is no enforcement nor education guaranteeing the problem to get worse. I stopped short of asking how many of them drove to the meeting but the question was in my mind. I've applied to be on the council many times but appointment is only done by the mayor(why?).

It's systemic and deliberate, and where it's not deliberate as you point out op, people don't even know what game they're playing or which teams they're on.

C corps, which almost any company you've heard of, North Star is money. They, in some cases legally, have to prioritize shareholder returns. Little has been done to consider short vs. long term return as part of that equation, but I digress.

Just like black lives matter, DEI, lgbtq rights/pride, being against Nazis, it's all just a mask. A sheen. Businesses as we've seen, either happy prance into supporting whatever will make them the most money politically. Look at how many companies fell in line when attempted autocracy has been pushed the last 13 months since the fanatics took power.

Coke created Fanta to have an unfamiliar brand to sell in the Nazi Germany market in the 30s that wouldn't be familiar to Americans. Why? They wanted the money and did not care who they were dealing with in power. Nothing in that lesson is new in history nor will change in the future.

Companies are not people and have no morals. Don't look for them to stand up for what is right.

App used to automatically load posts from what I recall but no longer seems to even under "all" categories so it's certainly not a "tiny communities/no new posts” thing. If I scroll back to the top of "all" and drag down to refresh, new content loads

Boost/Lemmy/android/pixel8a but seems like a server issues unless I've missed a setting somewhere?

 

Right wing media and think tanks consistently blitz the news and press when tax increases are discussed, threatened or, in the recnent instance of Mamdani, the new more progressive mayor of NY, that progressive taxation policy drives the rich to leave.

I wanted to share this article about the UK media outlets misleading, inaccurate and over representation of coverage here of the identical issue as the same schlock fear mongering without any data is done there as in the US. I assume the playbook is the same in Canada, Australia and elsewhere but would be interested to hear from those better informed.

Coordinated, well funded attacks on critical democratic infrastructure are not coincidence globally, they are the playbook.

As someone >90th percentile in height and >75th percentile in weight for the US, I've found in the last 5 years I now no longer fit into most "Large" size clothing and need to buy more "Medium" sized clothing. I haven't lost/gained weight nor shrunk(that I'm aware of). Statistically, numerically and culturally this seems strange.

Anyone else find sizes that "should" or "used to" fit have morphed and you now shop different sizes where your body size hasn't changed?

OregonLive is known for gating links after the fact, so here's the important bit for folks living under the Sinclair or Nexstar umbrellas:

"If you live in a broadcast region run by the Sinclair or Nexstar media companies, you can only watch the full Tuesday episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on Hulu (free trial) streaming the day after it airs, or you can watch Jimmy Kimmel’s opening monologue and more clips from the show on YouTube shortly after it airs (this should be some time after 8:30 p.m. Pacific Time on Tuesday)."

I assume the company, regardless of its home nation, would issues new shares for the new market and the income from equity issued would be added to the overall corporate balance sheet.

I ask; isn't this essentially, for current shareholders, a dilution? While opening new markets is generally positive for growth, existing shareholders get no stake in the new issued shares right? Existing shares they have don't gain in value at all from the price of another trade/exchange value right? Are there share classes where maybe new issuance would actually make them increase in value?

Own shares in a foreign market that I think will expand to the US soon and wanted to make sure I understood impact.

 

Using android keyboard users can easily search GIFs but get a notice the app doesn't support inserting them into comments. Would like to have this feature.

Thank you for considering.

 

Yell at your local governments to stop flushing money on tax breaks.

 

Pharma manufacturer Gilead making available at cost (2 million doses in most needed countries) while generics are developed and can later be distributed. Decent play from a Pharma company.

 

Help me understand the administration angle here. I mean, obviously, it disenfranchises American workers and corps have been abusing it for 30nyears now, no news there. Is it to pressure concessions elsewhere from tech companies as the corporate-technofascist state solidifies?

Here's an article from 2022 about how when working in VC he of course invested in companies that proscribe to the visa abuse practices he's railing against: https://www.axios.com/2022/04/22/jd-vances-investments-made-use-of-h-1b-visas-he-opposes

Is the snake eating it's tail here? Is the left hand slapping the right hand? TF.
