The other day, a guy on X posted that you can get trapped in a Tesla Robotaxi with the power off. That’s not true. Check out how easy it is to get out in case of power loss.

One of the reasons I am a liberal and not a leftist is that leftist morality is about power, not rights. Good actions reduce power imbalances, bad actions exacerbate them. Murder, theft, and discrimination can all be justified if they harm a “powerful” person or group. Liberals condemn these actions because they violate individual rights and dignity. Liberalism seeks equal rights, leftism seeks equal power.

maybe a weird thing to be worried about, but man I hope the switch 2 gets cracked sooner than later I don't even gaf about free games or running homebrew, but if the switch 2 is the first console to never see a hack? that's going to be worrisome for game preservation

I like how I have two different YouTube essays in my feed reminding me that Jimmy Beast is the antichrist

Noah Hawley says his ‘FAR CRY’ series won’t be adapting any of the games as he thinks audiences skip the story cutscenes in those games. “When you play a video game, you only really move forward through the gameplay section, and then you have these cut scenes that you can skip, so when you go to adapt those games you have to be aware that makes the human drama kind of irrelevant to the storyline.” (Source: Deadline)

It should NOT be this hard to buy a privacy-respecting printer. Seriously. A printer should be one of the simplest devices in the house. You send it a document. It puts ink or toner on paper. That should be the whole relationship. Instead, the mainstream printer market has become a swamp of cloud accounts, mobile apps, subscriptions, cartridge DRM, remote diagnostics, vendor lock-in, and “smart” features nobody asked for. HP is the canonical example of how bad this got. HP+ ties the printer to an HP account, an internet connection, and original HP ink for the life of the device. Dynamic Security can reject cartridges based on vendor-controlled firmware rules. Instant Ink turns printing into a subscription relationship. Why does it need to talk to the vendor just to do the one job it was built for? And from a security perspective, this is a nightmare. A Wi-Fi printer is a computer on your LAN. It has firmware, network services, a web admin panel, default settings, cloud features, and sometimes stored documents or saved credentials. A compromised printer can expose services. It can: - advertise itself to the LAN - store print jobs and scans - keep address books and scan destinations - hold credentials for scan-to-email, scan-to-SMB, scan-to-FTP, LDAP, or remote management And it usually sits on the same network as your laptop, phone, NAS, smart home devices, and sometimes work machine. Used printers are worse. Assume the previous owner left behind Wi-Fi settings, scan destinations, address books, stored credentials, and cached documents. One reason to prefer black-and-white: many color laser printers can embed machine identification codes into printed pages. Yellow dots are the famous version. The broader issue is forensic marking. Good intel on this is weirdly hard to come by.
