Remember the security firm that Ubuntu hired to audit the (ill-advised, highly buggy) Rust-rewrites of all of the GNU Coreutils? Turns out that security firm is run by @gf_256, who: - Appears to be a man who thinks he's a woman ("trans"). - Uses an anime cartoon of a girl as his avatar. - Appears to have an OnlyFans page. I repeat: Ubuntu hired a "Trans" man, with an anime girl avatar and an OnlyFans page... to audit Rust code. It's hard to get more on-the-nose than that.


We get this a lot and it's a non-sequitur. Many people run marathons or 10Ks or have hobbies which don't pay the bills but consume a considerable amount of time. But it gives them a sense of achievement and being part of something bigger.



⚠️ Definitely DO NOT point a 1000nm wavelength green laser at Flock cameras. It totally won't damage the sensor and render the camera ineffective. So please don't consider it, okay?

@analogreset It was more a one-time catch-all charge to teach him how loans work, rental space on the barn, usage of my FB account to sell the rugs on Marktplace, and some “consulting” assistance. I didn’t wanna do all that for free and have him feel like I did a lot of the work.

This is my son. He is almost 16 and wants a vehicle. I refuse to buy him one and told him he needs to pay for it himself. He got a job as a rec basketball league referee and quickly realized how long it would take to save up enough money to get a $3k car making $12/hour. Then I showed him some cooler $6k options on Bring a Trailer and he got the itch to make more money. I gave him countless ideas to pursue. He wasn't feeling any of them. Then I decided to show him some podcast episodes from @mhp_guy (he's listened to some from Chris before and was a fan). No ideas were really hitting home until he heard an episode between Chris and @ShannonJean about reselling. He fell in love. So I showed him a few more and he was convinced that that was the route he should take. We started browsing B-Stock and then realized we need a state tax license and some other stuff so we got that all set up. Then we browsed some more. Endless deals. We settled on buying 115 rugs at an average of $13/rug after shipping. They're all Costco returns. Various sizes, some in better condition than others. He now has to figure out how to sell all these through my Facebook Marketplace account. I won't be helping him at all, other than answering questions and casually giving him strategic ideas here and there. If he can sell the rugs at an average price of $35 (keep in mind some are brand new and are 10' x 14' large), he'll make $2500 in profit. Then we can start car shopping :). P.S. Chris and Shannon - thanks for the motivation!!!





White parents are still making them slave at dead-end jobs to "learn the value of hard work" while Indian and Chinese parents are hiring ghostwriters so their kids can plagiarize their way to straight As and Ivy League acceptances. And you wonder why so many zoomers are fed up.
