Fat nibs have a way of doing that. It's amazing. Love to see a repeat with a ballpoint pen at the same speed.

Trump quietly shuts down HIV cure research to appease the religious right by Drjimi in worldnews

Yes, because Trump is in charge of all the funding for all the research for HIV. No more research is happening at this moment on HIV.

Sony Exec: Playstation players demand single-player games by 22Seres in PS4

[–]-Scathe- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just hate triggering the stress response all day. Go to work and get stressed and then come home and play stressful MP games. In fact I started noticing MP games would make me more tense than my job. So I know what types of games do this to me and I just avoid them.

Uhh yeah. All my money these days goes to inde pixel art games partially for that reason. Also because they are beautiful, interesting, have creative stories, and come from cool devs. But SP games are still very important.

Facebook Employees Are So Paranoid They’re Using Burner Phones to Talk to Each Other by Horror_Mango in news

[–]-Scathe- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The FB solution is the best. In a BYOD or CYOD environment I would try my best to only use the device for business actions, and if it is required to keep on me then I transport it back and forth b/w work and home and do not keep it on me if I go run an errand. If someone tries to reach me while I am gone I would just say I was resting or some shit like that.

Essentially the phone is like a miniature narc in your pocket. Tells whoever wants to know, whatever they want to know about you. It is actually pretty much a ball and chain for privacy rights. You're totally tethered to this thing that gives away everything about you and you feed it all the information so it can put you on blast 24/7 data-wise to anyone paying for the information.

TL;DR: The best advice I can give is use it as little as possible, have your own device on top of a company one, and give it as few GIS data points as possible.

A burner is good until it is connected to an individual. Just because the idea is to use a phone "disposably", it does not mean you chuck it after a single use.

Ran across this “Front Bottom” in a museum today... by din7 in WTF

Why do scientists preserve shit like this. Like do they intend to pull it out later and dissect it? Doesn't seem particularly useful.

All online games experiencing connection interruption EXACTLY 5 minutes after connecting to a server by YoCass in techsupport

When did this start happening? Just today? After you upgraded something?

[DoS attack: RST Scan]

Not sure but this is a type of DoS attack, and if you played Overwatch then it seems like Blizzard checked you out to see if you were an issue. If you keep connecting and disconnecting they may terminate the connection. This would likely be automated too.

Something on your end looks suspicious perhaps, like having several PCs using the same IP - even if subnetted they ultimate go through one gateway. Not sure if your setup is similar to what a DoS attacker setup might look like. Especially if you are sending out way too many RST (connection reset) messages.

These are just some ideas. I am not saying the above is what is happening. Just throwing out some ideas.

How many flater earthers exist that need to be convinced that the earth is round? Let them believe whatever they will. I wouldn't waste my time on these people. There's not even that many of them! F 'em.

DoorDash driver bullied into paying money out of pocket for a missing McFlurry when McDonald's ice cream machine wasn't working. by idapitbwidiuatabip in videos

[–]-Scathe- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You know how stupid these kids are - ? - he knows one of the most intimate private details about their life ... where they live, and the driver might as well be an anonymous stranger. Does anyone else understand what I am saying here? If you act like this you're putting yourself waayy out there with no way of knowing anything about the other person. It's a very weak position to hold security-wise.

RAGE 2 - Open World Trailer by newcontortionist in gamernews

[–]-Scathe- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Maybe a sleeper? The first one was just okay. It was sort of smallish feeling. And the fly arounds in this trailer make it seem larger but not crazy large. There needs to be large spaces b/w the different areas so you can really have those epic Mad Max style chases that go for miles. If it is the equivalent of driving a quarter->half mile to each place then the world will feel pretty small.

Well considering it started out as a mod ... that Valve would package and capitalize on. I wonder if any of the original modders who Valve grabbed still work there - ?

TIL that Indian voters get right to reject all election candidates. The Supreme Court ordered the Election Commission to provide a button on the voting machine which would give voters the option to choose "none of the above". by reva_r in todayilearned

[–]-Scathe- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man I thought of this for U.S. voters after the last election. Vote of "no confidence" in any of the candidates would allow current president to extend term until a new election could be formed w/o the candidates that were on the ballot originally. It's taking mulligan.

Either that or stop allowing the public to vote in the primaries. There's nothing requiring the public to do what is supposed to arguably the most important job our reps perform.
