We live in the era of the Reckless and uninformed.

The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

Yeah that is his point he is trying to make at some point you just have to come to terms with that trust since you are right it’s not feasible to build your own hardware.

No worries , but i think I’m not being clear if you build it from scratch. how are you going you going to compile it ?

Your welcome but that’s the point he was making even if you build everything on your own. The backdoor would be in the compiler. So even if you built /bin/login for example he would just inject it at compile time when compiling your code. But then you asked I will just compile the compiler but you have to compile it at some point and he can inject the code back into the compiler at that point.

If you read this you will never trust anything again. If you aee not familiar with him that is Ken Thompson one of the father’s of Unix.

Its why they call it a vain not what it really is a poop tube in shrimp

It’s important to remember when they say US intelligence is also the combined intelligence of US allies with intelligence sharing agreements. Whenever things were working before it was all blown up the intelligence worked so well because NATO+ block worked as a unit. That’s why it was so important for Putin to deploy his operative to blowing up that alliance.

I kind of think of it like big give a penny take a penny tray.

Yeah you are right, i blocked them . thanks I guess I lost my head there for a second.

I don’t want it as it makes posts feel hollow and evaporates any desire to engage. Since the Ai is not going to have a real option i value. So it just adds to noise and just looks like more sophisticated spam.

Agreed

Yeah the company I work for is unlimited pto and it’s the UK so i can deduct my UK tax from my usa tax. The weird part of not having an uk income. But die to having dual citizenship i don’t need to show an income for immigration.

This is 100% correct but it’s good as I got older it’s the characters that make it interesting so the mystery is just a bonus.

What’s next, fucking frogs. Hasa Diga Eebowai 😩

If I have a remote job in the US but also have dual citizenship with the country I’m moving to do I still have to pay taxes on that income or does my employer have to do anything for my move.

Yes but for me it was 1998. There was so much hope the internet was coming into it’s own web 1 was peaking. PC gaming was unreal. Diablo , half life , quake 2 were in heavy rotation. Online was fresh and new. Heat.net was such a cool place to dial into. The world had its problems but being able to communicate across borders was ment to heal the world’s problems. This was before the internet got centralized and the powerful could use it as weapon.

Smashed pennies

Yeah me too if nothing else I tag people on here if nothing else maybe find a few penpals.

Thanks it’s not all bad I have had a few surgeries to remove lymph nodes and I got a cool scar out of it. Makes me look like a bond villain Lol I always try to take the good out of the bad every chance is get. I will say the only down side of lemmy is the lack of support group boards like reddit had. It was always nice to talk to people with similar experiences.
