Once they achieved the ultimate DEI position, every other work employment was up for grabs. There's an insidious amount of DEI people that have been hired that hopefully will just fade out through sheer incompetence. We can only hope. I am tired of people giving boomers a bad name (not all deserve it), but at least we knew how to do basic maintenance, life skills.

Europe's far right is growing in both Eastern and Western Europe. Economic crisis, austerity, and historical revisionism are contributing factors with decades of austerity, deindustrialization, and corporate domination having devastated working-class communities.
Meanwhile, pervasive anti-communism, encouraged at the EU level, is distorting history and delegitimizing socialism as a viable alternative.
After a week of anticipation, the U.S. struck Iran's nuclear facilities in Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. Iran accuses the U.S. of "betraying diplomacy" and violating international law and the UN Charter.

- American bombing of Iranian facilities changes the rules of the game
- It is arrogance and unrealistic to think that preemptive strikes will bring to its knees a country with 90 million inhabitants and a heritage spanning thousands of years
- American bombing postpones, even if temporarily, the danger of Iran's nuclear program but its repercussions will be broader
- Iran will not collapse even after the very painful American strike, and we must not forget that it still possesses a powerful arsenal of missiles.
It's pathetic that you all turned your back on Trump like this. He gives you his all and you all don't support him in what he does, and you wonder why he stops backing you up. You are pathetic, and you were never MAGA.
@[owl] I turn my back on people who lie to me. Trump campaigned with being the Peace President, criticizing former Presidents for starting wars, in of all places, the middle East, then he lets the Kikes draw him into their genocidal mission. Sorry, you lie to me and I'm done with you.
No. You lied to Trump when you said he had your unwavering devotion, and then you turned his back on him when times got tough. You were fine with the prices going down, but you weren't fine with him establishing American hegemony abroad, hegemony that needed to be established. You are the liar here.
What the fuck are you sperging out about? π You expect everyone to be in lockstep with a guy that campaigned on "no new wars" and immediately sneak-dicked us into another Middle Eastern debacle on behalf of Israel? This isn't the Democrats. We don't purity spiral.
Shut the fuck up. We at Israel need your support and we're tired of playing games. We're the only thing keeping your little world together, faggot. Now shut up.
"We at Israel..." Ahhhh, there's the problem. Yes, a bunch of dysgenic shitstirrers are the only thing keeping America together. π Pretty sure we can do without your meddling in our affairs. Enjoy your little blackmail ring over our politicians while it lasts, which is probably not much longer.
You think you know something just because your fellow "frens" at Gab told you repeatedly about "duh jooz?"
Heh. Let me tell you something. You children are going to war for us. Just as your fathers did. Just as your friends did. And you better realize who is in charge. Without us, you are nothing.

Whether youβre running a single crane or managing a fleet, negotiating with a crane parts supplier can stretch your budget further. Hereβs a guide to securing the best deals.
Keeping Grove cranes operational can be pricey, especially when replacing parts. Whether youβre running a single crane or managing a fleet, negotiating with a crane parts supplier can stretch your budget further. Hereβs a guide to securing the best deals.
1. Arm Yourself with Part Specifics
Before you contact a crane parts supplier, know your requirements: exact part number, crane model, and any compatible alternatives. Being prepared signals youβre a serious buyer, streamlining talks and boosting your negotiating power. Tip: Log all Grove crane parts replacements to track wear and simplify future orders.
2. Shop Around, But Value Quality
Price matters, but donβt fixate on the lowest quote. Get prices from at least two or three crane parts suppliers and compare:
OEM or aftermarket parts?
How quick is delivery?
Whatβs the warranty like?
A bargain part can cost more if it fails fast. Use other quotes to negotiate, but donβt sacrifice reliability for savings.
3. Probe for Bulk Savings
Ordering multiple Grove crane parts or planning regular purchases? Ask about bulk discounts. Suppliers often hold back these offers unless you inquire. Try: βCan you cut me a deal if I add a seal kit to this order?β If your company runs several cranes, mention itβloyal customers often get better rates.
4. Look into Rebuilt Parts
Not every repair needs a new part. Rebuilt Grove crane parts can perform well at a fraction of the cost, especially for older cranes or minor systems. Always request a warranty and rebuild records. Vague answers? Thatβs a red flag.
5. Nurture Supplier Connections
Stick with a couple of trusted crane parts suppliers for long-term benefits. As they get to know you, they might:
Offer discounts without you asking
Tip you off about sales
Ease up on payment terms
Stay professional and clear to build a relationship that pays off.
6. Check Alternative Parts Carefully
Suppliers may pitch aftermarket or alternative Grove crane parts to save money. Verify these with your craneβs manual or a mechanic. A solid supplier will suggest reliable substitutes, but steer clear of cheap parts that wonβt last.
7. Play Your Timeline Smart
Got time to spare? Let the supplier know: βI can wait a bitβany chance for a better price on a later delivery?β This gives them wiggle room to lower costs. Need it fast? Youβll pay more, but still ask: βWhatβs your best price for a rush job?β They might have stock they want to move.
8. Lock in Payment Terms
Clarify payment terms before sealing the deal. Paying upfront? Ask for a small discount. Using credit or net-30? Get it in writing to avoid hiccups. Clear terms keep things smooth and show youβre on top of things.
9. Know When to Bail
If the price is too steep or the supplierβs shadyβvague terms, no warrantyβwalk away. Plenty of reputable crane parts suppliers exist. Donβt risk a bad part or deal.
Final Word: Negotiationβs No Big Deal
Suppliers expect you to haggle. Come prepared, stay polite, and youβll likely land better prices on Grove crane parts while building ties with suppliers. Smart negotiating keeps your cranesβand your walletβin good shape.

Or historical exploits/trojans/etc. that deserve more attention? I've mostly heard about lucrative vulnerabilities that concern Linux servers, but what about the end-users on desktops? Or is the Linux desktop market small enough that we mostly just see one-off instances of users blindly running malicious scripts?
Not in the way you're probably thinking, which I assume is like in a Windows-y kind of way.
Finding an exploitable escalation of privileges in Linux is rare, but unpatched machines get hacked all the time, but the world of worms, and such is kind of gone.
The way most end-user machines get compromised these days is by supply chain attacks, undiscovered zero-day exploits, user error, and social engineering. Groups that discover zero-days usually keep it close the vest, and they don't get found for long periods of time after they've been out in the wild.
The way most corporate machines get attacked is social engineering, supply chain, and zero-days. Mostly crypto mining schemes and enterprise-level ransoms for data.
All the Windows botnets you hear about out there are largely unpatched machines exposed to the internet in various stupid ways that groups prey on to take control of.
Edit: Forgot about leaked secrets. Lots of companies get hit from plaintext secrets that get out in the wild via various stupid means.
@SmoochyPit @monovergent π οΈ One of the most recent that comes to mind was the exploit in pkexec, a setuid utility for privilege escalation could be abused for unauthorized privilege escalation in either a server or workstation environment.
TLDR: While Linux is less susceptible to malware in some ways, it mostly boils down to Linux having a more technically minded userbase whereas Windows is a "mainstream" operating system.
Most Windows malware nowadays come from social engineering scams (complete this "captcha" by pressing Windows+R and pasting in this powershell script we conveniently put in your clipboard) or untrusted third party installers because Windows doesn't natively have a package manager. Like others have said, the old school self-propagating worms and drive by downloads that activate just by clicking on a link aren't really possible anymore (outside of state actors with unlimited budgets to buy zero days) unless your system or browser is horrifically outdated.
In terms of social engineering, Linux is not necessarily better at preventing it than Windows. In fact, sudo in Linux will unquestioningly delete the kernel and system software or make unlimited changes to them. Windows, for better or for worse (tbh more worse than better), uses TrustedInstaller to limit access to system files. Windows 11 won't easily let you delete or modify System32 for example, even if you're an admin. So it's in theory easier to do more damage to your system on Linux if you don't know what you're doing. But if someone is using Linux full time, they're most likely technical enough to not be fooled into running random untrusted bash commands. The biggest thing is to be careful with those Linux terminal tutorial sites that have a "add to clipboard" button, they can put literally anything into your clipboard, including an enter key to run the script as soon as you put it in your terminal (though this may or may not be possible depending on your terminal app). Actually, they don't even need you to use their copy button. They can just set an event listener for control-C anywhere on their site and automatically replace the clipboard content. Just double check everything you copy before running it, especially since there's a lot of times where Linux users have to rely on obsecue tutorials hosted on untrusted websites.
You also don't really need to run untrusted installers on Linux because almost everything you need is in a properly moderated software repository, be it your native package manager, Flatpak, or Snap. Everything is signed by the authors and has a ton of eyes from the open source community on it. The only things to look out for is compiling something from GitHub, random AppImages, random Elf binaries, and last but not least random third party repositories that can be added as an installation source to your package manager/Flatpak/Snap. Basically, Linux gets most of its "doesn't get malware" reputation from the same place Mac does: you rarely have to manually download and run an executable from a random website, which is the norm on Windows. Add to the fact that even when that's needed, the Linux userbase is more technical and is more able to discern which sources are reputable and which are suspicious.
Another major source of malware is pirated versions of Windows or untrusted "license activators" from the internet. This just isn't a problem on Linux because there's no license to activate and it's free to begin with so there's nothing to pirate. And again, if someone is running Linux, they're probably technical enough to know not to run random pirated versions of paid software to begin with, helped by the fact that the vast majority of paid software is Windows only.
@HiddenLayer555 @monovergent π οΈ It also has to do with Linux being open sourced and thus open to scrutiny so such things get discovered and fixed early.
Federated Services are services which many instances form a network to provide a greater whole than the sum of their parts, each participant in the Fediverse is an βinstanceβ. A message or other item made available on one instance is visible and available on other instances.
We make these services available to all people who do not abuse it in order to promote the values of Free Speech, and those of the United States Constitution First Amendment. A free republic is not possible without free speech and commercial mainstream media do not provide it. We also get some advertisement benefit from hosting these, it is our hope that people who see how fast and responsible our services are will decide to do hosting or use other paid services here.
There are numerous federated services available, we offer Macrobloging platform Friendica, Hubzilla; Microbloging services Mastodon, Misskey, a federated search engine, Yacy, and a federated cloud service, Nextcloud.
Macrobloging services are message systems that allow long form posts similar in format to Facebook. These allow for works of fiction, poetry, technical papers, news items, short stories, and more. These formats are most useful for discussion of social issues.
Microbloging services allow only short form posts similar in format to Twitter. While you can link to larger articles elsewhere, you have a relatively short character limit and so can not post them directly.
Censorship, is handled much different on the fediverse than on mainstream media like Twitter or Facebook. On the fediverse, each individual instance is responsible for content available on that instance, but does not censor the rest of the network. Thus if you find the rules of one instance too constraining you can move to another.
Federated search engines are analogous to federated message systems in that each instance chooses what portion of the internet it wants to crawl. When you enter a search term, the local instance queries all of the federated instances, collates and sorts the results and presents them to you. As with messages, each instance can have itβs own censorship policies but no one instance can censor the entire network.
Given the wild-west nature of the fediverse, it is probably not suitable for children under 14, and youβre guaranteed to find some material that will offend virtually everyone. With federated search engines, material that is inappropriate will usually be flagged sensitive or nsfw (not safe for work) so as long as you donβt expand material marked as such, you can avoid this sort of material. There are occasionally people who violate these rules, we do our best to remove such individuals none the less some will get through.
We offer the following federated services:
Friendica.Eskimo.Com Friendica is a decentralized long format macrobloging message network. It is similar in format to facebook however there is no centralized censorship. Also, it is able to federate with all other federated message systems which use ActivityPub protocol and also we have extensions that allow it to speak to several other networks via other protocols.
Hubzilla.Eskimo.Com Hubzilla is similar in message format to Friendica in that it allows long posts. However, it specializes in itβs ability to provide connectivity to multiple protocols and so we include it in our mix of federated services primarily for the better connectivity it offers. Hubzilla provides a great deal of interoperability between many networks though ActivityPub is still itβs primary protocol. Hubzilla gives you a greater degree of control over privacy than some of the other networks. You can create private channels that are served between hubzilla instances and other compatible instances.
Mastodon.Eskimo.Com Mastodon is first and foremost an alternative to Twitter. While Twitter has Tweets, Mastodon has Toots. The format is very similar. Mastodon toots have a limit of 500 characters. Similar to the short limit of Twitter. This is why this platform is referred to as a Microbloging format. Mastodon interacts with other ActivityPub instances however when a long form blog post from another instance arrives, you are only shown a short portion with a link to follow to see the full post on the originating site.
NextCloud.Eskimo.Com Nextcloud If you are a customer of Eskimo North, your login credentials will work without a domain extension to access Nextcloud. If you are not a customer you can apply for a Nextcloud account using your choice of login and password, in this case the login should include your originating network. Some features require an Eskimo North shell account to take full advantage of.
Pixelfed.Eskimo.Com Pixelfed is a federated pixel gallery. A place where you can share your photos to the widest audience possible, and you can view what others have shared. Instance is new as of April 6th, 2025.
Yacy.Eskimo.Com Yacy is a federated search engine. There are several thousand instances on the Internet. Each instances crawls whatever portion of the web the administrator requested. It is also possible for the administrator of a site with relatively few resources to request a larger site to do crawls on their behalf. Unfortunately, it does not provide a method for an end user to initiate a crawl, but if you send e-mail to support@eskimo.com and request a crawl, we will initiate a crawl on your behalf.
@Max_Imum During the pandemic and before the noauthority gang had joined us here @wziminer dispensed lots of advice on the combo. She is a retired doc and was very kind and helpful during that time.
