Everywhere. Even if they have warrants. Seriously. These are Nazis and should be treated as such. Do not let them kidnap people. Shame them until there are enough numbers on your side to fight back.

If you don't know the victims name. Learn it and keep repeating it. Yell "they are trying to kidnap !". It humanizes them further against a masked person that won't identify themselves. It can help attract people around to help.

And it has to be you. Everyone else is in "freeze" mode as they don't know what's going on. You do. You know. You gotta be the one to start resistance. But you won't be alone long.

Fuck these Nazis.

Oh man. You should see the source code for IOS (the Cisco one not Apple).

Spent 5 years working on it out of college. I think it's the most cursed code base you can imagine.

Not necessarily because of the massive struct defs everywhere. They are kinda needed when you're running an entire OS as basically a set of interacting Linux processes pretending to be an OS.

At some point Cisco realized they could not compete without putting a Linux kernel as their base. So they basically just copy and pasted the old code written in the early 90s for the IOS and put it into a set Linux processes.

To be clear. It's not just the front end. They didn't really change the code much from the old IOS. Its a cluster fuck of interprocess communication hacks that probably seemed like a good idea at the time.

It is a massive pain in the ass to code because you're basically doing everything on the Linux kernel and then frustratingly have to write the CLIs for IOS just so Cisco can continue to sell their proprietary OS with some of the most unnecessary hardware locks. Massive learning curve for any new engineer.

Literally, no one on the entire switching team knew how to send a message from a specific process to the IOS process. I had been assigned something that needed it. So I somehow figured it out and was "the guy" for that for the time I spent there.

Fuck. I'm gonna start ranting more if I go any further. But yeah, sometimes you need a massive struct because some idiot decided that forcing a closed source CLI on the market is a good idea for profits.

Definitely not a good idea for coding. But you learn quickly that no one actually cares about good code in this industry. There is no time for it. There is no reason for it. Just spit out garbage until it works and your manager won't care.

If you want clean code. Go write an open source project or a personal project.

Yes. But unironically. We finally found out what it would have been like if Bernie has won the primary. The Dems would have thrown everything at him losing the general. Probably calling him antisemitic along the way.

Took too long to type my comment but basically just said the same thing. Most of these models are the same exact thing with different biases and hard coded prompts to guide it's behavior.

But grok. It's obvious it's just being fed a prompt directly written by Elon. Probably with a mountain of 4chan links to guide it's behavior.

Oh man, you'd be surprised how many Latino white supremacists Nazis there are out there.

So, while I agree with the "vote away Fascism" being bull shit I do still think that working class momentum can be built through wins like Mamdani.

Not really. Could be something entirely fine but requiring monthly medication. If you can't afford that. You're fuck.

We have people rationing insulin in this country for Christ sake.

Because he was a child. Sadly he wasn't even given the chance to grow up and learn what the police really are.

This. People can make more in the US because the country doesn't give a fuck about it's people. It's like gambling the health and wellness of you and your family to horde up some Cash.

If there is ever justice for Palestine the trials will be short. These bastards are so proud of their support for genocide.

Plex still good for the boys that bought the lifetime pass. I understand why people would change. But it's still the best plug and play option. Waiting until they break the "lifetime" thing and fuck us over.

Just got let go from Microsoft for speaking out. Not that it would matter. But now the UN is at least on my side too. Garbage company. Never even wanted to work there. My company got bought out by them and suddenly was a Microsoft employee. Fuck em! All their leadership should be in prison or worse.
