No, it's not, as there are ads that pay per impression, not click.

Opera Mobile.

But this government was just collecting the worst of the worst from the streets.

Or were they lying all along?

(Narrator's voice: they have been lying all along).

Can't read because someone on that website thinks Opera is "not acceptable":

"Not acceptable. Your browser is not supported. Please upgrade your browser to continue."

"-> Publisher is not harmed"

How? Publishers do need revenue and this can deprive them of this income.

Ads pay in different forms. Some pay per click (PPC), some pay per thousand impressions (CPM).

Clicking with the intention of helping doesn't help. Only clicking with genuine interest helps.

The writeup says it right there:

"The security exper’s analysis indicates the attack ceased on November 10, 2025, while the hosting provider’s statement shows potential attacker access until December 2, 2025. Based on both assessment, I estimate the overall compromise period spanned from June through December 2, 2025, when all attacker access was definitively terminated."

Using whataboutism doesn't negate the fact that the first amendment is being trampled over by the US administration.

Buying TikTok to censor it is the move of a fascist government.

Narrator's voice: "Unfortunatelly, they will be waiting forever, becase that help will never come."

There are few, Spain's King Juan Carlos I being crowned king after Francisco Franco's death, and Chile's Pinochet leaving power after the 1988 referendum for example.

If only the directors didn't make everything so dark and hard to see. Also stopped messing with sound, making it impossible to hear dialogues.

I won't link it here, because... but the author has an active LinkedIn profile.

So there's that.

Hilarious. Anthropic saying the WSJ was a great red team.

Imagine this on the hands of Facebook scammers, then. It wouldn't last the two hours it took WSJ journalists to exploit it.

We have an OS security update that is only release to users of a specific hardware, once approved by their mobile operator. It may be added to vendor-specific OS versions some time later (weeks, month or never). The vendor-specific may not be approved by a telco if the vendor doesn't have a relationship with that telco.

Now think that millions of people use the same OS on many different flavours, on different hardware, on multiple operators.

What an inneficient way of doing things.

The people who planned this are evil. People who voted this are evil.

On the homepage screenshot, there's an "it's" where it should be "its".

Details matter if teaching language.

So, instead of making sure the code is optimised they just decided to use more memory?

Again, the end user pays for it, through hardware and power needed for this "solution".

This is similar to compromised sites showing a fake Cloudflare "Prove you are humand by running a command on your computer" dialog.

Just a different way of spreading the malware.

Why was this flagged?

From the screenshot "...if they are open source, we support them. Regardless of their political stances outside of their alignment with us in increasing the adoption of open source" (NRP).⁩

That's damning.

"If approved, an individual must make a gift of $1 million, which has been determined to provide sufficient evidence that the individual will substantially benefit the United States."

So much winning... Seriously, what a joke.

Some time ago there were estimates on the number of people still paying AOL but using a broadband service.

I wonder if AOL will stop charging people on dial-up only, or if they will later claim "oops, sorry..."

Isn't the answer to this obvious? They lost the war, they were the bad guys. The older generation who fought WWII and the Cold War is all but gone, so now these people want to rewrite history, with "alternative facts".

Matariki (1): "In Māori culture, Matariki is the Pleiades star cluster and a celebration of its first rising in late June or early July (Southern hemisphere). The rising marks the beginning of the new year in the Māori lunar calendar."

Says the person running a social network website where I see one of my friend's posts amid eight "suggestions" that bear no interest to me.

I have kept my FB account open just to contact some members of the family that live far away. Or to check someone I know in my circle that I haven't heard from a while.

But scrolling? Nah. I don't have the app and only open it once a month.

There's a word for it: enshitification. Blame yourself for making it a crap experience, Mark.

My second job, in the late 80s and early 90s was with a mainframe company. Not the Big Blue, but the red one.

I mentioned to my uncle, a MD. He was happy for me because I had "found a job for life".

This was his world view. Being a self-employed, practice-owner MD he had a job for life. He thought this was the same in other careers.

I worked that job 18 years, in two countries. Then I left and have had three jobs since then. Changed careers. But I never thought being loyal gave me any credit with the employers.

One of them dropped me like a lead balloon as soon as the acquiring company found someone in another office to kiss someone's behind.

Congratulations on your fascist state.

I think it is the fear of being detained instead of just put on a flight back. There were a few documented events like this in the last few weeks.

Pure evil. People voted for evil. But tell me again how egg prices are going down.

The party that claims to support the constitution seems to not support the constitution. They also seem to not support education, health and sciences.

Talk about going back decades.

No accountability, no transparency.

Shame. Shame. Shame.
