Isn't this illegal?

Or he could have avoided the whole thing by complying with the congressional subpoena. 🤷‍♂️

These people are something else.

Then why did the wasp go in her shirt?

Fuck this wasp propaganda trying to justify their illegal war on humans.

Yo, just want to say: good on you and good advice. I think you nail the problem with the constant thoughts thing, and that also explains why so many people will talk about how they met someone after they "stopped looking".

I feel bad for the reasonable employees at SpaceX - this sucks for decent people.

... because rapey stuff seemed to start happening and may have continued if one of the girls didn't text someone?

dude was checking them for consciousness, something unnecessary if he only wanted them to sleep.

if he was checking them to ensure they were alive, then he deserves a serious ass prison sentence as well, because he then clearly understood how risky what he was doing was.

so ... yeah, as far as I am concerned this guy seems like prison is the right answer.

Actually, I am.

Using rootkit anti-cheat is a shortcut that reduces cost for both dev time and hosting time at the expense of your customers' security and CPU. You also have to lay your cards on the table for those who are attacking you. It is not the right solution for this problem.

Authoritative servers. Never trust the client, especially with information the player shouldn't have right now. Look at behaviors and group players based on if you think they cheat or not - let the cheaters play together, no need to spoil their fun and let them realize you know they cheat.

People do some or all of this on the server now, but root kitting all machines to try to solve this problem to play video games is one of the dumbest approaches ever and we will realize it one day when a state level actor pops their zero day against a big install base.

Used to recommend Roku to others. I will never buy anything from them or recommend them to anyone again.

Someday maybe boards will figure out that "business" people have no idea what they are doing.

There are still some errors where you just need to know the fix. In that case it's a baseball bat.
