Idk. PewDiePie actually liked the tinkering aspect of it. He is a techie who didn't know it yet. Not the same as a normal user.

I like Linux but it's hard to recommend it to anyone who doesn't care to learn how their computer actually works.

Yep. Once sat through a 1hr/day for 3 days training for a Microsoft Intune service, where I knew more about the permissions hierarchy than the Microsoft employee conducting the training did.

for those who violate it.

For FERPA rules, I know we can't let anyone in unless they're supposed to have access. Also we have to destroy both RAM and storage devices from computers and copiers before we send them off to recycling.

Problem is trying to hold them accountable. Most of the checks and balances have been eroded in the past week and a half.

I work at a public university. I know that we're governed by extra data protection rules under FERPA, but I'm sure the fed gov has extra rules too. Sometimes it's prison time...

No need to get defensive. I know a few small plane pilots, they don't get out enough to comment on whether or not things have changed in the last week. I was genuinely curious.

I know there's small plane incidents all the time. Which is why I commented that it was prob a control surface failure.

Sad. Condolences to the families involved.

Hopefully the investigative committees will be able to reveal what happened without resorting to blaming DEI.

My guess: Flight control surface failure.

have you flown in the last week?

Slowing down to safe speeds from 55+ mph can get SCARY when you suddenly lose all traction. Experienced that once, hope to never do it again.

I saw it and liked it. Since my viewpoint pretty much aligns with yours, as an IT Specialist.

I get that there is a need to cut government waste. But there is a graceful and proper way to do it, and it's not anything like how Trump and Elon are going about it.

Even them backing Trump in his disbanding of the CSRB, when it's clear-cut retaliation. Whole new level of crazy. Democrats ain't got nothing on that circus.

Especially given the current timing of not having a CISA chair to place compensations or publicizing any of their current findings.

Likely a blog post to follow for more details.

Drivers of other brands don't have to pay a political notoriety tax either.

Tesla's main advantage was how advanced their EV motors and batteries were.

More established automakers have almost caught up.

Now Tesla's pushing the envelope on self-driving, but in some ways GM is already ahead.

I think this is why.

I've gotten edit notifications on Facebook too. They may have learned or stolen it from Mastodon though.

I agree on the post limits.

I guess the workaround to the missing edit function would be to really proofread posts before clicking the post button.

Banning one specific entity doesn't do anything except aid the business efforts of its competitors.

So if the government really wants to do us good in the cybersecurity front, then they really need to write consumer protection and privacy laws with real teeth. Like the GDPR in Europe, or California's CCPA.
