@FmrRepMTG fyi @CFTC

When is everyone going to start realizing that the manic on again off again war/peace rhetoric is really just insider trading? And sprinkle in some murder. Only a select few in the top tax bracket are benefiting from this, and the majority of you ain’t in it.

@FmrRepMTG @grok mention the US agencies responsible for regulating insider trading in US markets for this post and thread

Age limit for drinking is a great example. It was a result of inconsistent age limits across state lines, causing alcohol related driving accidents, and possibly other alcohol related accidents as a result of people coming across state lines. If 18 is the age of suffrage than 18 is legal enough to drink. If you can join the military and die for your country at 18. You should be able to drink or do whatever else at 18. @grok how did 21 become the universal federal law in United States for alcohol consumption?

@GutmanGreg @historyinmemes Same goes with drinking age limits.

Workers replace highway speed limit signs after the National Maximum Speed Law took effect in 1974.

Exactly some of the older vehicles were not safe at higher speeds. I agree there no headrest no seatbelts. Questionable suspension. The road conditions of questionable quality. Lack of emergency services in certain areas. Lack of ability to get help in case of emergencies. And all of those speed limit limits makes sense, but not as hard cut off more of like guidelines regulations to motivate safe outcomes of behavior for the individual

@cgore4 @GutmanGreg @historyinmemes Imagine never having driven a land yacht as your daily, then comparing today's high performance, high fuel economy SUVs with a 6,000 lb 1968 Chrysler New Yorker with ancient suspension and brakes and thinking it's the same thing 🙄

Designing something for safety as a result of a feedback loop, as in the case of road design, speed limit could be a guidance for safety, a recommendation based on engineering realities from the people who construct things, a law maker, a policy maker, have a hammer called lawmaking policy making, just because someone creates a law doesn’t mean it’s automatically valid. You can literally go however fast you want when there’s no one else on the road. Police officers and emergency vehicles and others go as fast as deemed necessary while staying safe, there is no law, if anything there is exceptions to the law which applies to everyone else. If speed limit was about safety, and then vehicle vehicles would be designed to not be allowed to go above a certain speed limit, for example 55 miles an hour +10% that would be a hard cut off. That is a reality of engineering, which could be driven by policy, a.k.a. law within a certain environment to result in a specific outcome in this case safety as a result, directly related to speed. I will stop here

@GutmanGreg @historyinmemes Additionally roads and highways are clearly designed with safety in mind. You literally cannot go however fast you like, less you put yourself and other drivers recklessly at risk.

@doktorhippy84 @historyinmemes I think you have exceeded the speed limit of your ability to comprehend what was being stated. I don’t need a law to behave like a normal person. If laws were so effective at preventing anything there wouldn’t be jails, holding people as a result of breaking laws.

@GutmanGreg @historyinmemes I bet you wish you had that 55mph speed limit now, because what you call control was saving people money on gas. I’d love to see what law states speed limits are unconstitutional. There are plenty of maniacs and morons who drive well above current limits. I’m guessing you’re one.

Uno reverse 😂😂😂😂

@furufurumoon @ThatEricAlper You win

@GutmanGreg @ThatEricAlper That was what I grew up with too, though my first experience with a PC was a Intel 8088 with IBM-DOS 3.30.

@IntCyberDigest @L1v1ng0ffTh3L4N a reminder not to store passwords in any browser, because it is one software update away from being this

❗️🚨 Microsoft Edge keeps every saved password in process memory as cleartext from the moment it launches. Microsoft's responsed when reported: "by design." All of them. Including credentials for sites you won't open this session. Researcher @L1v1ng0ffTh3L4N tested every major Chromium browser. Edge is the only one that behaves this way. Chrome decrypts credentials on demand, and App-Bound Encryption locks the keys to an authenticated Chrome process so other processes can't reuse them. In Chrome, plaintext surfaces only during autofill or when a password is viewed, making memory scraping far less useful. What makes this extra weird is that Edge still demands re-authentication before revealing those passwords in its Password Manager UI, while the same browser process already holds every one of them in plaintext. In shared environments, this turns into a credential harvest. On a terminal server, an attacker with admin rights can read the memory of every logged-on user process. In the published PoC video, a compromised admin account lifts stored credentials from two other logged-on (and even disconnected) users with Edge running. Microsoft's official response when notified: "by design." The finding was disclosed April 29 at BigBiteOfTech by PaloAltoNtwks Norway, alongside a small educational tool that lets anyone verify the cleartext storage for themselves.

@ThatEricAlper dang it bobby

Google Chrome silently installs a 4 GB AI model on your device. > No consent dialog. No opt-out UI. Re-installs itself if the user removes it manually. That is the true definition of malware.

@FluentInFinance @Delta can simply hand out snacks and drinks to anyone who wants them before boarding a flight that is under 350mi where a snack/drink won’t be offered on-board

BREAKING: Delta Air Lines will no longer offer free snacks or drinks on all flights starting May 19th (under 350 miles). Meanwhile, Delta CEO Ed Bastian received $27.1 million in 2024. Consumers lose, every single time.

@FluentInFinance @grok duration of flight for 350mi turbo prop or jet engine?
