slowhadoken··on ICE Releases RFI for User Tracking Tools
A state and federal judge’s personal information is privileged to protect them from reprisals. Some of the most vulnerable people in the legal system are witnesses, hence witness protection programs which can involve plastic surgery.

slowhadoken··on ICE Releases RFI for User Tracking Tools
A U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent is authorized to use deadly force by the Department of Homeland Security only when an officer has a reasonable belief that the subject poses an imminent threat of death or serious physical injury to the officer or others.

I’m liberal so I believe in governmental regulation which includes legal immigration and labor rights. I believe illegal immigrants shouldn’t be exploited by private businesses and citizens should be paid a living wage.

Doxxing is the first and most obvious reason. Federal agents aren’t directly subject to the public, their respective agencies and the President hold them accountable.
slowhadoken··on ICE Releases RFI for User Tracking Tools
People want to know the identity of law enforcement to dox them. Police, federal agents, lawyers, and judges can be pressured by criminals and organized crime. That’s a thing, you know that right?
slowhadoken··on ICE Releases RFI for User Tracking Tools
I’m not making a point, a made an observation.
slowhadoken··on ICE Releases RFI for User Tracking Tools
Well it’s weird because there are a 195 counties on the planet and they’re all, to one degree or another, negatively effected by illegal immigration because all countries require legal citizenship.
slowhadoken··on ICE Releases RFI for User Tracking Tools
Correct me if I’m wrong but aren’t there 195 countries on the planet that all have legal and illegal immigrants?

Also please keep in mind I’m a life long liberal that voted for Ralph Nader and Bernie Sanders.

slowhadoken··on Outside, Dungeon, Town: Integrating the Three Places in Videogames (2024)
Most of my video game theory is based on manipulating these distinctions.
slowhadoken··on Ideas aren't getting harder to find
I’m working on it.
slowhadoken··on The past was not that cute
People arbitrarily point at periods in the past to say they were worse or better. Some people idealize the Middle Ages over Rome. A Ren Faire is a hodgepodge of Medieval/Renaissance larping. But the past as a sum total is usually worse, hence the concept of progress. While the beginning of someone’s life is usually best and the end is worse. Historically speaking it’s complicated.
slowhadoken··on The past was not that cute
Today will be the brutal past in the future.
slowhadoken··on Anthony Bourdain's Lost Li.st's
No, it’s sexist to read about men being abused by manipulative women and assume misogyny. It stinks of a bias that favors women so intensely that it treats dead men as simply some kind of social breakage. That’s sad.
slowhadoken··on Anthony Bourdain's Lost Li.st's
That's a morbid and sexist thing to say.
slowhadoken··on Anthony Bourdain's Lost Li.st's
She was clearly enabling him and playing him, that’s predatory. A similar thing happened between Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love. The friendship between Heath Ledger and Mary-Kate Olsen was very suspicious too.
slowhadoken··on Python is not a great language for data science
Sounds like a skill issue
slowhadoken··on BlackRock's Larry Fink: "Tokenization", Digital IDs, & Social Credit
Like forcing ESG wasn’t creepy enough. Social media is already too much herd mentality.
slowhadoken··on How hard do you have to hit a chicken to cook it? (2020)
You don’t have to hit a chicken hard to cook it you just shoot it at a wall.
slowhadoken··on Choose Your Own Adventure
I played them in and around the California Bay Area but I guess similar games were set up all over the US. They were free too. Every time I watch the movie Treasure Planet (2002) the narrator for the holographic bedtime story reminds me of the phone games.
slowhadoken··on Choose Your Own Adventure
I miss the old late 1980’s/early 1990’s choose your own adventure phone games. They had an early 1940’s radio show vibe to them with sound effects and voice actors. The felt like old laser disk arcade games too. No one seems to remember them and I can’t find them online.
slowhadoken··on TV Time Machine: A Raspberry Pi That Plays Random 90s TV
Reminds me of old school 2000’s internet tv.
slowhadoken··on Ask HN: Has anyone else been unemployed for over two years?
Yeah but I’ve never been more busy and productive.
slowhadoken··on A shift in developer culture is impacting innovation and creativity
Learning and exploring has been my whole life and it’s not without its costs.
slowhadoken··on CubeSats are fascinating learning tools for space
The Portland State Aerospace Society built Oregon’s first satellite OreSat0 back in 2022, it launched in March of the same year and stayed in low earth orbit for over 2 years and a half years https://www.pdxaerospace.org/
slowhadoken··on Court rejects Verizon claim that selling location data without consent is legal
I feel like a cop looking at this company’s behavior. “If you’re not guilty why are you acting guilty, Verizon?”

Pretty soon you’re going to need insurance for your paycheck. When people are poorest that’s when corporate types turn the screws lmfao smh
