This depends. A subpoena is only binding if the registrar is in a country that is legally liable. Some privacy focused registrars purposely locate themselves in countries that keep them legally insulated.

I feel like the people who should write an identifier on their body during a hurricane are the same people who wouldn’t bother to listen to government officials advise.

The most common way for a an employer to pay in cash is through a check mailed to your address on record. That check can then be cashed either by the bank on the check, which is required to exchange the check for cash or a check cashing business which will take a fee for the service. Both ways will require identification.

The only other legal way is get a job with an employer who is willing to pay in cash, usually at a cashier window. Most common in labor jobs in the mining, manufacturing or agricultural fields, some higher education institutions, and occasionally in construction.

Otherwise you’ll have to go the illegal under the table route. Which is easier to find than you would think, there’s a whole lot of people avoiding wage garnishment and or immigration enforcement.

You computer has a feature for Out of Band management. Either WoL as others have mentioned or vPro(Intel), iLon(HP), iDrac(Dell), as well a few other less popular systems depending on who makes your mainboard or NIC.

This leaves the power on to the network card so that it can be used even with your computer off. It does not have access to your normal computer in the this case. Just the ability to turn on/off the system and sometimes options to update BIOS/UEFI firmware and send a console image to either a client or browser.

The lights are blinking because broadcasts packets from other devices on your LAN are sent to every device. This is normal and expected behavior.

I think there is some confusion here between copyright and patent, similar in concept but legally exclusive. A person can copyright the order and selection of words used to express a recipe, but the recipe itself is not copy, it can however fall under patent law if proven to be unique enough, which is difficult to prove.

So you can technically own the patent to a recipe keeping other companies from selling the product of a recipe, however anyone can make the recipe themselves, if you can acquire it and not resell it. However that recipe can be expressed in many different ways, each having their own copyright.

Logseq has Org Mode…

Yeah that’s it, this website explains it.

Tech companies are operated like any other company and have a wide range of employees. Also not every tech position is highly employable. I know from personal experience in tech middle management that many employees are very easy to replace and have very common skill sets that are oversaturated in the market. Many many tech workers are absolutely operating in survival mode in 2024.

Psychopath is being used in a colloquial way here and not an exact diagnosis. Even if they are actual psychopaths they are known for being very charismatic and there are a lot of sadomasochistic people in the world who are motivated by punishment.

Further the people who work directly for these people want to be them, so they see it as just part of the process.

Another factor is money, it’s a motivator. Those who work lower down the org chart can often be desperate, struggling to get by and get used to the punishment, convincing themselves that it would be worse elsewhere.

The Idea that life is short and work just isn’t worth it comes from a place of privilege and the luxury of time for self reflection. Something not everyone can afford when one lives in survival mode.

I think the issue here is there is the rule book and then there is the reality we all live in. Like when you tell an adult as a kid you’re being picked on at school and they say “just tell the teacher”.

Sometimes the situation doesn’t work out in your favor when you play by the rules.

It could be argued that this person feared for her life because the man that was abusing her was caught and now free and he blames her. If he is intent on finding a way to murder her, a restraining order won’t stop him. So in her mind it’s either play by the rules and allow for the potential of having this man murder her at any moment, living with this thought every day of her life or take care of this problem herself and deal with the consequences which is spend time in prison alive or live in fear of death.

I honestly sympathize and understand where this might be less revenge and more pre meditated self preservation.

Therapist, hospice, nursing , sports medicine, massage… a lot of jobs require some level of physical or mental intimacy.

You are not making sense here. Please try to clarify your point because it seems to be disconnected from the comment you are responding to.

I don’t know about that. Her medical issues was like 6 years ago, I think what your seeing is she has matured and has a very different perspective on what’s important in life. She seems happy and doing well, she’s just older and isn’t being as silly and giggly as she was in the beginning.

Dad! come now, I told you 15 minutes ago it was time for bed.

Micay did not step down nor is it a symbolic gesture. He removed himself, at the demand of others within the organization, from any public relations duties he once held. He is an excellent and talented engineer and an absolutely horrible representative.

He has no people skills. He does continue to contribute and guides the project privately. It should have been done long ago because I think he has done a lot of damage by overreacting and fostering a community of toxicity by being a bad example.

Since his departure it has been improving and GrapheneOS is becoming mature and a far cry from the Copperhead days.

I see what you mean now. I should just ignore it. I shouldn’t have called him out. He did nothing wrong. In fact he made the post more entertaining and his references were really fun. I was demanding him to do things this whole time and that was wrong of me.

I was so mad he didn’t research his joke, because you know jokes don’t really need to make sense. I was being silly. You were right this whole time. Thanks for setting me straight over these last couple of days. I’m so stupid.

No, yet again, I am saying when he was corrected and down voted by multiple people he didn’t just acknowledge his mistake, he went on to try to pretend to be something he is not, and try to save face by exaggerating and deflecting. He is not concerned with anything but being right.

He is wasting peoples time who have voluntarily engaged with him. He is not contributing to the discussion and making flippant lazy comments.

I can spend my time how I choose and if I choose to have a discussion about his comments then that’s my decision. I have not bullied anyone, I just made two comments about this to him. Haven’t engaged with him since.

However you have said I am over reacting, being stupid and now bullying, because of my opinion of someone’s behavior. All the while you dismiss my opinion, disregard my points and apologize for his behavior like his mother. If it’s no big deal why are you still talking about this. You’re the only person still concerned. This ended two days ago for me.

You’re correct, it is very reasonable for someone not remember details about a language that was used in schools for education decades ago, that he himself said he played with as a kid, as I have done myself. AGAIN it’s not that he didn’t remember, it’s that anyone who has worked as a programmer for decades, and I mean without exception, would ever in any circumstance post that code from memory. Because anyone who has done any coding knows you only remember syntax when you have been practicing in it daily. No one remembers the syntax to BASIC, it isn’t a useful language. You would just search for “hello world” loop and you would find endless examples you could copy pasta. Which he himself says he likes to do with that creative commons nonsense he tags to every post.

Sure pop-ups suck. Sure interface design needs to be better, it’s not the point. The point is he claimed that the site was paywalled, he was wrong, that’s okay. He was told by multiple people he was wrong, including one person who went as far as to post a screenshot. Even after all that effort from the community he doesn’t just say “ah my mistake, I see it now”, he goes into an excuse of bad UI design, even though no one else had the problem. It simple, just say you made a mistake without making excuses. Really easy to do, and way less effort than this whole deflection thing he does.

He’s a shit poster, who bullshits people because he doesn’t want to be wrong. I am under no illusion anything will change with this guy. His shitty behavior continues today just as it has in the past. I just made the mistake of saying something about it.

He said he ran it through compiler and it didn’t complain (which he later claimed was sarcasm), then he said he couldn’t remember the syntax because of all the different languages he used over the past forty years “That’s how long I’ve been programming, so long that I can’t even remember the syntax anymore.” and then went on a long rant about all the computers he used as a kid.

He didn’t admit the mistake on the paywall he said “Young webpage developers designing UI for younger aged eyes, and not thinking that when people get older they increase the font size of everything on their device so they can see still, which affects the layout of everything being displayed.”

He never once said he was wrong in fact he double down on it with “I’m not going to change my original comment, and I still stand by it. If they obfuscate the way of closing the pop-ups by making the close button so small and insignificant compared to the other likewise texting around it, to me that still paywalling, as they’re trying to trick people into signing up for an account to read the article.”

Again, I am not worried about the mistakes. He also certainly doesn’t need to apologize. A simple acknowledgement without deflecting into some long excuse as to why it’s not his fault or he’s just so experienced that he got the details mixed up would be fine. Also again, if this was a one off example, I wouldn’t have said anything, it’s a trend I’ve seen him do a few times on a few different posts and it rubbed me the wrong way so I decided to call him out on it, like many others have also done.
