I was just listening to this. It’s an interesting track. I’ve never heard FKA Twig’s music before, and I’m definitely intrigued. Planning to check out more of her stuff.

100% this. Everything else is just a distraction meant to divide us so we cannot effectively act against them.

You’ll never be able to buy that at like a Walmart of Best Buy type retailer. TVs these days are already just spy machines to serve ads. It’s a lovely idea, but it’ll never happen.

You’re welcome.

Capitalism/the profit motive is how physicians get caught in these systems of apathy. My comment isn’t an over simplification, it is the root cause.

Is the entirety of the healthcare system incredibly complex? Absolutely, and within that complex system there are all sorts of problems that could be teased out to study and address. None of that will dramatically change the outcome of a system that is designed solely to extract as much profit as it can.

When profit is the primary goal of a healthcare company (and the legally mandated responsibility of that company if it is publicly traded) the end result is the system we have.

If it’s a MacBook that no longer gets updates from Apple then it’s probably from around 2014ish, and is definitely an Intel Mac. This is a great candidate for Linux. If you want an environment that is similar to Mac, go with gnome as the desktop environment. Outside of that, any of the major distributions should be fine. I’ve run KDE Neon, Ubuntu, and am currently running fedora on a 2014 iMac and all of them worked without issue.

Color me shocked that a meta product is sacrificing trust so the line continues to go up.

I mean, you could charge like $8 and then give the totally real people that are paying that money a blue checkmark? /s

Seriously though, I like the idea, but the verification has got to be easy to do and consistently successful when you do it.

I run my own matrix server, and the most difficult/annoying part of it is the web of trust and verification of users/sessions/devices. It’s a small private server with just a few people, so I just handle all the verification myself. If my wife had to deal with it it would be a non starter.

Our two party, first past the post system is fucking awful.

Also, I don’t see how eliminating the deductions helps. And I don’t mean that in a snarky way. I’m genuinely asking how that would make the situation better.

The profit motive needs to be removed from healthcare, or patients will continue to get fucked.

Healthcare needs to be separated from employment, and the profit motive needs to be removed from healthcare.

Should the government run it? Maybe not, but what’s the alternative? It’s like every election. Choosing one of two bad choices and hoping you choose the less bad.

And in the case of healthcare, I’ll take government run, profit free, tax funded healthcare over what we have now.

Edit: autocorrect error.

It’s not pure capitalism, but it’s definitely crony capitalism. Us plebs get fucked either way.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t there have to be a code layer somewhere in there?

It’s like all those “no code” platforms that just obscure away the actual coding via a gui and blocks/elements/whataver.

I am like you, and love the idea of starting up a food truck business. I wouldn’t do it unless I was already wealthy enough to just pour money into it, hire people to deal with the admin, and leave me the fuck alone to cook.

I ran my own (non food) business for a decade. My experience is anecdotal. I don’t pretend I reflect the reality of running your own business, but it fucking sucked.

I spent so much fucking time on admin. I worked 80+ hour weeks, for what amounted to less than minimum wage. After a decade I burnt out and shut it down and now I work a dumb job that I give no fucks about and cook at home with my wife for us and for friends for the sheer pleasure of it.

Edit: my business was based on something I loved to do, and I hated all of the “business” parts of the business.

Capitalism.

Healthcare and insurance are for profit industries and the corporations running the healthcare and insurance business don’t give a fuck about the health of the patients. They want all the monies and want to move patients through as quickly and cheaply as possible to maximize their profits.

I love a good Báhn Mì

Definitely. Not to be ignored, but for lots of yubikey users, also not something to be overly worried about.

I went into the article thinking I’d need to replace my keys, and after reading decided I’m a very unlikely target for this attack. My threat model doesn’t include nation states, so I’m gonna keep using my yubikeys for the foreseeable future.

I have been thinking about new hardware key(s) that can handle more than 20 passkeys, but that’s not a high priority for me right now.

It’s due to a cryptographic library implementation in a controller used in the yubikey. It’s a third party controller, and this isn’t exclusive to yubikeys either, a shitload of other stuff uses the same controller and is likely vulnerable to the same attack.

Also, the attack requires around $10k worth of equipment and physical access to the yubikey, so while a valid attack vector, it’s also not something to get into a panic about.
