orion7··on Stallman: Thousands Dead, Millions Deprived of Liberties (2001)
Yes. He also regularly shares news articles from five eyes propaganda outlets like the Guardian attacking Russia, Iran, and the Chinese on social media. It's weird to see him fall for and amplify that garbage
orion7··on Google Cloud fraud defense, the next evolution of reCAPTCHA
Like many, I've already trained myself to commit to giving up immediately after the second bus or traffic light or puzzle (some of which I don't even understand anymore). Sounds like my life will not be all that different.

Worst case scenario, if this neuters my sovereign and all powerful linux desktop from some critical business I can't avoid (which remains to be seen), it sounds like I will have to have some scripts and a dummy android phone in my home lab as a sort of second router.

orion7··on Google Cloud fraud defense, the next evolution of reCAPTCHA
An increasing percentage of the dumb majority are opting for dumb phones and plenty of people still use laptops, it doesn't have to be anywhere remotely close to a majority for many analytics-obsessed site owners to see the drop in sales and opt for another solution.

In any case, sites using an extremely restrictive mode of recaptcha during ddos attacks will just be one segment of a very fragmented digital future, not society as such

I like to think every mistake I make at work is my manager's fault.
orion7··on We have a 99% email reputation, but Gmail disagrees
Kind of makes you wonder, just a little, about the quality of their email setup, too
orion7··on Hide macOS Tahoe's Menu Icons
I use Linux at home and MacOS at work; I am quite fond of every visual change in Tahoe with sole the exception of the obscenely large radius rounded window corners which make no sense on a rectangular screen and make resizing windows a relatively slow and arduous task. I really wish they could be disabled.
orion7··on An ARM Homelab Server, or a Minisforum MS-R1 Review
For those who don't need quite that much power I recently added an Orange Pi 5 to my own homelab, the RK3588 SoC packs an impressive punch for what it is
orion7··on Data Leak Exposes 149M Logins, Including Gmail, Facebook
Companies trust them with their passwords and intellectual property and remain in business. It's insane to me too, but that's the world we actually live in
orion7··on Why more American seniors are getting high
This is so obvious to me that I immediately assumed the title must have meant high school seniors
