    @evacide@hachyderm.io seems like the baddies broke into the Wordpress admin panel or the host’s cpanel page. Not terribly sophisticated, but quite consequential. It’s always the small things that get missed and create a huge problem…

    This is my comment for #alto public feedback page: I understand the concerns some people have about the project, they&amp;#39;re totally valid, but we need to consider the broader context. Not building a HSR system means we continue building new highways, widening existing ones, endless suburban sprawl, bigger and louder airports, and continuing to turn high value farmland into walmart parking lots. What we&amp;#39;re doing right now is not sustainable. We&amp;#39;ve lost about 18% of Ontar...

    I&amp;#39;m not 100% certain, but I think this is about my silly router experiment. :p &amp;gt; “Even if you can’t get a router, you can do anything with a router!” I am an engineer who speaks fluently. What was his unexpected idea? https://kn.itmedia.co.jp/kn/articles/2604/10/news030.html

Maybe it just sucks in general? It regularly recommends a “faster route” that involves turning left from a side street across a six lane megastroad, often with a concrete median. Going for a drive in the country in January? It knows a faster route (by 1 minute) that takes you down a gravel road that hasn’t be...

    No other nation has ever, and probably will ever, build as dangerous and terrifying of a surveillance apparatus as the nexus of #Ring #flock and #Palantir.
