Don’t worry, they’re gonna eat themselves doing shit just like this. It’s not a matter of if, but when.

“AI” has it’s uses (medicine, engineering, etc.), but 99.99% of the snake oil they’re selling are just gimmicky cash grabs. Classic cases of Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.

Let them burn their money, I say. Fuck it. Just sit back and enjoy the fire.

Yeah, I gave mine (a whole $7) to Make-A-Wish. Don’t even use PayPal so…

Oh really? That’s good to know.

I wonder how they justify that on taxes lol…

“Yeah, we paid out $500 to 1337snipergodx6969@gmail.com. You’ll need to verify the other details with PayPal.”

That’s true, ICE & Co. are also all over Mexico right now because of the cartels. The whole border lock down and immigrant round-up thing is only half of their current force. And one of the big things they’ve been doing down there is monitoring/tapping their communication networks.

So yeah, never mind, probably not a good idea. If it was just for torrenting or something it’s probably fine, but beyond that I wouldn’t push it.

I’m honestly hoping for a repeat. Hopefully Microsoft goes down this time too, since they’re heavily into AI. Twitter, Meta, Google and Amazon too. It’s really just the worst of the worst.

It’s more about the latency since it’s right over the border (<30ms). It’s also a full 10Gbps so I can let family/friends use it and don’t have to worry if a few of them are pulling the full 1Gbps from home connection. Doubt I’m gonna be able to match both of those with a Chinese VPS :/

Honestly looking at Mexican datacenters right now. Some are basically the same distance, just in the opposite direction lol

Oh ffs… my best VPN server is in Canada lol

So Canada?

(They do have a history of going a little overboard with the homicidal stuff. But they’ve come a long way in the last few decades.)

Perfect for letting your buddies outside know when Tony’s wife comes to visit. Tony’s the guy you’ve been beefing with over your tater-tots every Tuesday btw. Oh hey, what’s this, his exact address too? Sweet!

Yeah, that’s for their ad-free Premium thing, which gets rid of ads and lets you skip the nag screen you’re talking about. Which, fun fact, you can use uBlock Origin and a Greasemonkey script to skip (I’d recommend ViolentMonkey to run the script) ;)

Which reminds me, the top mods every game/month are eligible for a small cut of that money if you opt-in and give them your real personal info. I’ve only ever made the cut once so I completely forgot about it.

Long time modder here, so I’ve been keeping up with this very closely. The owner (Dark0ne) really just handed control over to the people that were already running everything with him. The company (Black Tree Gaming Ltd.) is still exactly the same, they just have a new owner/parent company now (Chosen Something). And I’m sure he negotiated ahead of time that they’re limited in how much they can interfere, because I’ve seen nothing on my side indicating they plan to. (There’s no option for me to monetize my mods outside of donations or Patreon, for example.)

Cellebrite was used to crack the first Trump shooter’s phone. At the time, they openly talked about the latest iPhone being uncrackable and still in the “In Research” phase. So if the shooter had one, they’d have been screwed.

You’re thinking of FreeDUMB, where you’re allowed to believe whatever you want. But Trump has to approve the position first (as stated) and it has to be the opposite of whatever the data/proof clearly shows. It’s like the Wish.com version of Freedom_TM, but that’s geared more toward Teaparty Gun Nuts and Libertarian Potheads.

Edit: Huge caveat I forgot about. Joe Rogan also has the ability to dictate FreeDUMB positions. So long as the guest making the claim (1) has no degrees and (2) they’re being suppressed by The Establishment. Also, Jamie has to be able to Google some random website that agrees with them in under 25 seconds.

It’s encryption has been broken for some time now, which leaves it vulnerable to some pretty serious security issues. On top of the obvious issue of people with the right know-how just listening to your calls and reading your texts, which you probably don’t want.

(It’s also how most cops/feds tap phones these days.)

I’ve actually seen medical offices setup similarly. Some random computer in a back office with all of their patient data on it, completely exposed to the internet, protected by nothing but a few Windows Firewall rules limiting the connections to a few IP blocks. Just so they can share information office-to-office for say… a root canal and dental crown to be done on the same day, but at 2 separate locations due to limited space.

I’d run out of fingers if I were to count the number of times I’ve seen similar setups, 3-4 toes would be needed at least.

Fun Fact: I once worked with a team that were mapping Iran’s internet infrastructure… for reasons. One of the ways we were able to zero in on the more important systems was because we kept finding these weird Cisco routers that had Telnet exposed to the open internet. All of which just so happened to share neighboring IPs (or close enough) with some pretty serious government systems. Fun times.

I’m not a CISCO tech, so I don’t know the specifics beyond that. But I do remember that the Telnet connection would permanently ban any IP that failed even a single password attempt. So they had that going for them, I guess lol

Because this is just a PR bust. All of the sites that are actually worth going after are all out of their jurisdiction and/or properly cover their asses (cloudflare, self-hosted reverse proxies, etc).

Gotta show The Boss-man something to justify their budget.
