@ComEd hi so my mom is elderly and needs her power. is there any estimate when the palos area will get the power turned back on? shes in palos heights

Crews continue working in the hardest-hit areas where damage requires more complex and time-intensive repairs. More than 3,000 ComEd employees and 2,200 contractors are in the field, supported by an additional 400 mutual assistance personnel, all working to restore service as safely and efficiently as possible. Here’s the latest updates: ⚡As of now, power has been restored to approximately 623,779 customers—about 90% of those impacted by Wednesday and Thursday’s storms. ⚡Customer Care Vans are being deployed in Streator, Hickory Hills and Chicago's South Side, including the Stony Island and Gresham neighborhoods to provide on-site support and resources for customers. ⚡Forecasts for northern Illinois indicate a chance of isolated storms late Saturday into early Sunday, and we are actively monitoring conditions and preparing for potential impacts.

@questionableway my last apartment wanted $250/month per pet in pet rent. i didnt get a letter, i just didnt tell the landlord about my cats

you all need to stop doing this. it is becoming monstrously difficult for people with actual service animals to get them approved because of how many of you are lying. just pay the $20/mo

@BARFMUSEUM i will pay pet rent the day my cat is able to find a job and has paychecks coming in

are people actually telling their landlord they have a cat + pay pet rent or are we all lying

helo

foote sucking timely

@IRONICHANDLE lmfao

CAN YOU PISS OFF MAN

At an aquarium in Japan, after closing time, some clever little otter pups help their grandpa tidy up their toys. As a reward, he gives them ice cubes

@GregoryKBovino maybe you should concentrate on doing your job in el centro. they just let everyone through the 4 different times i went through the checkpoint on SR-86 lol

ICE Agents at Delaney, hang in there. You have the world watching and supporting your efforts to hold the line. Every one of us wants to be shoulder to shoulder with you. In speaking with the Mean Green Team, they send you support and are wishing you the best. Give them hell and live the moment!! 🇺🇸 💪 🤠

@rnovak1988 @ManaByte

@ManaByte Oh, and when the companies tweets get entered into evidence, their tweet BRAGGING about "bricking" people's hardware is going to nullify your pathetic attempt at post-hoc rationalization.

The sheer confidence it takes to lecture someone on the CFAA while fundamentally misunderstanding its most basic legal definitions is truly spectacular. Since you want to talk about things you’re "unfamiliar with," let’s actually look at the legal reality of what you just typed: "Exceeding authorized access": Under the CFAA, this means accessing information in a computer that the accesser is not entitled to obtain. Vanguard checking your local BIOS security flag to see if IOMMU is enabled, a requirement you explicitly agreed to by launching the updated client, is not "exceeding authorization." It is doing exactly what you permitted it to do in the EULA. "Intentional destruction of property": For the hundredth time, enforcing a built-in Windows security feature that blocks a third-party cheat card is not "destroying property." The computer is completely unharmed. The motherboard is fine. The CPU is fine. If you unplug the illegal hardware exploit, the machine boots perfectly. A security system refusing to interact with an unauthorized exploit device is not property damage, and no court on earth would define it as such. You are trying to twist federal cybercrime statutes to protect people who bought hardware-level video game cheats. If a security patch that enforces standard AMD and Intel virtualization protocols violated the CFAA, then every single Windows Update issued by Microsoft would be a federal felony. Please stop trying to play a lawyer on X. It’s embarrassing.

@Joshn4d @LeviathanGunha in 2005 my mom did this to me and everyone laughed at me and i got hired at 0 places lol

@LeviathanGunha I’m old (gen x) and honestly that used to be the best advice, maybe like 20 years ago. And now it’s the worst advice and actively pisses people off

one time my dad locked me out of the house for 8 hours so i could go drop off my resume and not a single place accepted my resume and one place even called security on me 😂😂😭

@CataArce212 @MarcyBelowFloor i gotta say, as a woman who had her male friends come in with her to public bathrooms many many many times in my life, its not that big of a deal as you make it out to be

@MarcyBelowFloor What should the response be if a biological woman is alone in a female only bathroom with a "transwoman" and insists that the "transwoman" leave?

My enemies are illiterate donkeys and I have wasted my life considering them morally weighted

@curebores @c___________11 @fawnnivalen its ok you don't have to be embarrassed. reading is hard for a lot of people. phonics can help though! theres a lot of resources online. good luck! you can do it!

@meowsandra123 @c___________11 @fawnnivalen Nope. Such authorisation is not there.

If you are genuinely worried about Vanguard blue-screening your PC, the solution is incredibly simple: Stop buying $200 DMA cards to cheat in a video game. Riot isn't being "too intrusive," they're finally making cheating have actual consequences. If you ruin competitive matches, you deserve to have your OS wiped.

@curebores @c___________11 @fawnnivalen you gave authorization when you clicked "agree" to the ToS....wait. i just realized. i'm so sorry i didnt realize you had the literacy level of a preschooler. i'm sorry for using big words before and confusing you. i should have known better. sorry

@meowsandra123 @c___________11 @fawnnivalen 18 U.S.C. § 1030, section (a)(5)(A)

@curebores @c___________11 @fawnnivalen show me the law and exactly how they broke it then. which law in which country and exactly how you think riot broke it. not your stupid "they modified the OS" because they didn't. nothing was modified ever by riot. since you are so sure about this, explain it to me

@meowsandra123 @c___________11 @fawnnivalen They did. They changed the security policy on people's operating system without the authorisation to do so, and in doing do did a big boy cybercrime.

@curebores @c___________11 @fawnnivalen but they didnt break the law. theres no law that says you cant enforce security policies of your own software. if you don't like it, your recourse is to not install it. theres nothing illegal about it, in any country anywhere on earth

@meowsandra123 @c___________11 @fawnnivalen Point's pretty simple. In getting cute with trying to punish cheaters Riot broke the actual law.

@curebores @c___________11 @fawnnivalen i dont even know what your point is tbh. i just said riot is enforcing security policies, and it has nothing to do with modifying anything. you're the one claiming its illegal to enforce a security policy because you don't understand how computers or operating systems work

@meowsandra123 @c___________11 @fawnnivalen You yourself were earlier claiming they were. You just didn't know they were doing it illegally.

@curebores @c___________11 @fawnnivalen if you didnt use them but could prove that riot was modifying the OS in the ways you are claiming, it would be a huge payday. you really think the people who make the DMA cheats and know the game code in and out are just not suing...for reasons? they would be set for life lol

@meowsandra123 @c___________11 @fawnnivalen Whether or not I personally sue them or has no bearing on whether or not Riot have broken the law.
