This article really is just reheated leftovers from the early craze days. If you pulled out the couple lines that acknowledge the historical negative sentiment you could label it as posted in 2020 and no one would question it.

Code trained by the Internet no less. This is "exactly" the behavior I expect.

Looks like you already know what to do with that Nutella. My only alternative suggestion would be to low heat toaster oven or microwave them to give the leftovers more of crunchy breadstick consistency.

It's absolutely hacking those computer, just not the site. I just don't want to get overly excited for something that doesn't have much meat to it.

Unclear from the article but, while a bit pedantic, this sounds more like it was potentially a DDoS attack rather than a proper "hack".

I mean this does make sense for places where you have a client and you want them to be able to see you doing the math to some degree to give an air of transparency and encourage trust.

From a protest standpoint though, what about all the tourists that are staying in normal hotels? Targeting tourists truly in general, just seems kind of dubious.

One attempt, one success.

Kind of building on the D&D subject, if you look up your local game stores that have playspace, they probably have a calendar on their website listing lots of "Open Play" events or something similar. Mine also has craft/hobby nights.

You normally just show up to these and play.

The card and army based games may expect you to have your own stuff, but I would get in touch with somebody because a lot of the time there's going to be somebody who will let you try the game with their stuff and teach you how to play in hopes of getting you interested long-term.

Most game shops host some games that are open to people signing up.

At one of my local stores, they specifically have the "D&D Adventure League" once a week. It does have a $5 entry fee.

Ok, this doesn't sound too crazy in context.

They aren't owners, they are suing to be released from their lease contracts because they feel they suffered "direct and concrete" damage from the way Teslas are now associated with "Elon Musk's actions".

Whhhhhyyyyyyy??????

I take it as the other MDR employees and their work being valid but foundational or middle work, while Cold Harbor was a specific capstone.

You do want to minimize your kidnappings if you want to stay under the radar. A radar that one might assume is extra aggressive since this is not a normal company by any stretch.

Let's be frank, Lumen is a corporate cult. I mean they have a department dedicated to raising sheep for literal sacrifice in a religious ceremony to guide souls to the company founder.

That angle alone, with the mural and all, it would be so easy to argue that they saw this final step as vital but too "holy" an act to sully with redundancies. It would practically be an admission of a lack of faith.

I don't entirely disagree but at the same time, some projects just don't scale well. There is a clear implication too, IMO, that the interaction of Mark and Gemma in specific, is particularly key by the end of the project.

Seems to be a kind of online conference. For being open source focused it's opening is very salesy/buzzword salad-ish.

"Open protocols, not closed platforms. The Fediverse, Mastodon and ActivityPub. ATmosphere, Bluesky and AtProto. Human connections, not AI bots, nor fake news nor manipulative algorithms. New funding models. New forms of governance. Better trust and safety. Direct relationships to stakeholders and customers. Interoperability across social platforms everywhere, and so much more.

After a decade of stagnation, next-generation social media is breaking out of the closed silos and connecting the world into a global, open social web. It’s a wild world full of opportunity.

FediForum brings together the leading thinkers and doers who build this new Open Social Web."

Too close to a real response for me to upvote in good conscience. 😩

"...I forget..." End season 1 of SAO, never forget, never forgive.

Unfortunately I assume that's now going to turn from delayed aid to no aid for a while.

Correct, it is mobile only. Unfortunately, I think I must be misunderstanding what you're saying about the OP stuff. This is my view, the way I think about it at least, these are all "OPs", ones with a plus sign next to the leftward arrow have comments.

And then if I tap, I get the op with its comments underneath it.
