Right? Jan 6 was a taste.

A decade ago, I worked on POS systems as a software engineer.

The selling point was absolutely hawking gift cards. Since we saw the data from companies, and we had a clause that gift cards expired (before the government stepped in) I remember being blown away by how many millions it was in pure profit.

Gift cards. Bleh

“Hey look buddy you’re being unreasonable right now. How about a light 'beating you nearly to death, but you get to watch TV while we do it?”

It’s the “just Google it” response

Your frame of mind is “dangerous”. If you are browsing on your servers as root, you need to not manage servers anymore. If that sounded harsh, learn about attack surface area first and then I might let you back in the server room.

You sir/ma’am hit it right on the head.

The “run root on Firefox” isn’t the issue, it’s the red flag. Security is a mindset. Failure to understand the core philosophy of why we have roles and permissions means you’re untrusted. It really isn’t personal. It’s security.

Pretty much.

Republicans also brag about not feeding hungry school children.

They don’t gaf

I didn’t even know about avocado toast until it was used as a joke. Then I tried it and holy shit it slaps.

Gimme dat good fats boi!

Fun fact - presidents pay out of pocket to host these dinners. It’s not a write off or anything, it’s straight cash.

Other fun fact - Trump absolutely loves McDonald’s.

So this trashy guy hosted a fancy dinner with McDonald’s, and paid about $1000 for it.

Can someone message the editor and share how because of this backlash, many moved to other platforms - like lemmy?

So many comments/posts look like bots.

Reddit always had a “repost” problem. But this time, not only am I feeling like I already saw this post, but also all the top comments? Just regurgitation of posts from years ago.

Smelly ex-president thinks he can still give orders?

Back in the 90s, saying the earth was flat meant you were open to talking through hypothetical science and creating wild theories. You knew the truth, but you never wanted to break kafabe. The sheer sillyness was part of the fun.

Today, saying the earth is flat means youre a flat out moron who lacks other critical thinking skills. It’s a warning sign that you also have other troubling thoughts.

The root issue isn’t quality, it’s the security issues with backdoors to the Chinese government.

Maybe you don’t care about your own data. But companies, hospitals, and financial institutions do.

Hell yeah C’s get degrees while perfect A students tend to burn up in the world

Im screaming right now.

Reminds me of the meme that told people to submit [object Object] to mess with JS devs.

What makes me laugh is the Trump team going on full defense. Like even former GOP allies say he reeks.

If this is fascism… I’ll take it.

Compared to what Mr. Trump said about illegal immigrants “poisoning the blood of our country,”

This was my biggest wtf.

Companies like reddit used to love that shit - make something awesome to get a massive audience… And THEN monetize. So what the hell is he talking about “business”?

Gonna say 50/50.

This past week, it’s been really bad.
