Apologies, perhaps I'm a bit too offensively defensive these days.

>authoritatian?[sic]

Yep, that's what xe said.

Wew lad

You saying they're the same doesn't make them the same, you're aware of that right?

Stupid racist white males!

Do I now?

Exactly what am I afraid of?

The obvious of course; I'd assume you're asking that to entrap me in a 'misogynistic' statement of 'women should be owned by their man'.

Not how I feel at all.

But sure, here's a brief summary of tasks previously(generations ago) assigned to almost solely females:

-Household chores

  ->laundry
  ->cleaning
  ->cooking

-Child rearing

Again, we're talking about the past here, women today obviously live in a different world where they are empowered.

Do I think women should have to do those things now? Nope.

Did I say they did? Nope.

Do I think women choosing this lifestyle are 'stupid' or not 'empowered enough'? Nope.

Do men owe women anything in this context? Nope.

This is equality. Men have _nothing_ to apologize for or work towards. We are equal.

Sure, but this isn't just 'men being bad'.

If you take away the mans benefits of a traditional relationship what reason is there for a man to invest in one today? Certainly not the benefits that have existed for the previous hundreds(thousands) of years while our species evolved.

Should men have had those benefits? Perhaps not of course. Doesn't change the fact that they did exist and no longer do. (it's not as if this was a one way street)

There's nothing 'evil' or 'wrong' about identifying that things which previously existed no longer do.

Perhaps there's no acknowledgement of obligation/consequence because none exists anymore, whether that's a good or bad thing is a separate argument.

Here's the equality you wanted. Time to dogfood it.

I was kidding fam... I even used 'Correct the Record' in my comment...

C'mon son.

ok.

that too :^)

Ha, funny, different kratom shills I'm thinking of then(I say shill as a joke).

Hope you join us on free/quake/ef/rizon.

Cheers~

(I'll never forgive you about the line breaks)

Humans are meta.

Do you hang out in irc often perchance?

You mean to imply you're not already using fockeros?

Handing over ICANN control to the UN was a mistake.

I have very little faith that this won't be used to censor free speech in the not-so-distant future.

Yep, not to mention our species didn't evolve under the constraint that all communication will be forever recorded.

The nature of social media, especially when it isn't (at least)pseudonymous is such that all statements are forever a part of the public record.

It's lead to a culture of going out of your way not to offend anyone(especially for facebook where your literal identity is tied to it).

The end result is a bunch of virtue signalling and oftentimes dis-honest but politically correct dialogue.

This is really well stated, completely agree.

Yes, the DNC wouldn't have called these out as fake the second they dropped were they actually fake.

C'mon son.

It's almost as if the end-game is a docile/subdued populace who is so unsure of themselves that they'll welcome basic income/restricted speech/gun control with open arms.

Sounds like a right wing conspiracy to me :)

If I could Correct the Record here, no one is trying to control the narrative on these platforms. Sounds like a Republican funded lie to me :^)

That's what I was actually asking about, specifics about this case. I was aware of the previous JS vulns.

Turns out this one was actually a .swf from an abandoned metasploit project.

It's not mentioned in the article, but I bet he didn't even cast the aluminum or fab the microcontroller either.

This. Is. Bullocks!

It wasn't my arguement. Care to clarify which argument you're attributing to me?

>The point is that either you need a new argument, or you actually believe all of those things.

No. I can't find one arguement in the thread above that requires 'believing all these things'

-children being able to work in mines(appeal to emotion) is tangentially related we aren't even discussing child labor here.

-fast food workers should absolutely be able to work for minimum wage, I did. Should it be raised? I think so, but again this is a tangentially related appeal to emotion.(seriously what did you mean with this one other than 'feel bad for poor people'? How is minimum wage relevant in this context?)

-Employees should be able to sign off on all employment rights?

Look a relevant point, and generally I agree they shouldn't be able to.

Can you please clarify exactly how this arguement of mine can be used to show the three things you've outlined?

Edit: The funny thing is I don't even disagree with you or the grandparent on the underlying issue here, I just find this constant strawman bullshit so grating.

>Modern anonymity breaks generally work by getting code to run on your local system

Would you have any reference to specifics on this? Fine if not ofc, just genuinely curious.(and agree that you're right)

Yes though, I would not recommend using a local machine to browse/etc

E.g. contrived:

Local->VPN->ssh/vnc/etc to a temp box->tor->internet

In this scenario, if the box is found and compromised before it's wiped, the anonymity of the VPN is important.

Regarding using a sim, they can only get rough location from tower usage/signal strength(I wasn't talking about using a burner phone, just the sim+a dongle(careful buying these)). Agreed this can get more granular quite quick, depending on area between neighbors it could be specific enough right away.

Like I said, last resort, shouldn't happen. I should have stated destroy sim after use, don't get lazy and reuse.

>Of course this level of paranoia doesn't really apply to your average web browser.

Agreed heh, hope we have more general awareness/prevention of commercial surveillance as well.

What is the premise of your argument here? That bad things happened in the past so there's now no such thing as too much regulation?

Because child labor existed we should now consider independent contractors employees...?

Care to actually provide a somewhat coherent response instead of baselessly denigrating the parents ideology and implying it represents forced child labor.

I find this kind of cheap, tangentially related strawman so intellectually lazy it's actually offensive.

>How about don't do illegal stuff period?

Nothing I said precludes that, or recommends breaking the law.

I, of course, always act with the highest level of integrity in my day to day life; so nothing here applies to me :^), sounds like you're the same.

Generally agreed, most laws exist for good reason and should be followed.

>Overall suggesting to use TOR for illegal activities is stupid

Disagree, perhaps some illegal ones(e.g. drug buying referenced above), certainly not others. Illegal doesn't always mean evil, sometimes it's the opposite.

>TOR has a bad enough rep as it is.

True true

Sometimes the illegal choice is the ethical one.

The main reason I posted this at all was because the article implies that properly configured TOR is safe. I personally would not trust it in the slightest against a well-funded, especially nation-state adversary.

To be perfectly honest I'm fine with the karma loss, even with a ban; it will just mean it's time to move on.

Yeah, quite a 'hack', probably why he got caught.

You're correct:

“It sounds disingenuous; it seems that what they mean by strong encryption isn’t near the same as what the rest of us say,” Cohn said.
