What fresh horseshit is this? Clinton Fdn is reposting what I see everywhere else on right wing sites. Fuck the Clintons. NB: this appears to be a fake site, probably not associated with that pair of assholes....

10 Ways the Communist Manifesto has Infiltrated the USA
The Republicans and Democrats are different heads of the same beast, just like Socialists versus the National Socialists. The labels hardly matter. They are authoritarians first, and then break down into factions of communist, socialist, fascist, etc. Each grows the power of the federal government, and hands that power off to the next faction when the tides turn.

As expected, more details are emerging in other news outlets about the arrest of #ShinyHunters.

One detail I noted is that ShinyHunters is suspected of being responsible for the attacks on #LVMH, which is the high-end brand associated with Tiffany and Dior, who both reported breaches this year. Although there had been some speculation that #ScatteredSpider might be responsible for those breaches, it appears that ShinyHunters was allegedly responsible.

There have been a number of hacks this year where it is not clear -- in the absence of law enforcement confirmation -- whether a #databreach has been by Scattered Spider or ShinyHunters, or whether they have collaborated with one doing the hacking and the other doing the extortion. I predict in weeks/months to come, we will be given a pretty big list of big hacks that ShinyHunters has been involved in this year.

As I reported in my coverage of the PowerSchool hack and prosecution of Matthew Lane, ShinyHunters' name has been linked to that one, too, but was not named as a co-conspirator.

This is where I should write "This is a developing story..." huh?

What are asteroids? Asteroids are rocky objects that orbit the Sun just like planets do. In fact, sometimes asteroids are called “minor planets.” These space rocks were left behind after our solar system formed about 4.6 billion years ago. Asteroids are found in a wide range of sizes. For example, one small asteroid, 2015 TC25, […]

3 Uncomfortable Facts about Israel’s War on Civilization that You Won’t Learn from Mainstream Media off-guardian.org/2025/06/25/3-…

I have an idea for the Democrats to bring them back into “play.” After years of being left out in the cold, including suffering one of the Greatest Losses in History, the 2024 Presidential Election, the Democrats should nominate Low IQ Candidate, Jasmine Crockett, for President, and AOC+3 should be, respectively, Vice President, and three High Level Members of the Cabinet – Added together with our future Communist Mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani, and our Country is really SCREWED!

It’s finally happened, the Democrats have crossed the line. Zohran Mamdani, a 100% Communist Lunatic, has just won the Dem Primary, and is on his way to becoming Mayor. We’ve had Radical Lefties before, but this is getting a little ridiculous. He looks TERRIBLE, his voice is grating, he’s not very smart, he’s got AOC+3, Dummies ALL, backing him, and even our Great Palestinian Senator, Cryin’ Chuck Schumer, is groveling over him. Yes, this is a big moment in the History of our Country!

I am okay with disk encryption if the owner of the device enables it themselves and understands at least a little bit about it.

Microsoft enabling it on people's computers without their knowledge is really scummy.

I have full disk encryption on my ThinkPad laptop with Linux and I'm okay with that... because I set it up and I know about it.

@gabriel fundamentally, the issue is that the data requires code execution to access, and that code will require the key material.

A drive that allowed you to approve access levels/modes, and used bio-metric to confirm your identity, I think would be closer to the ideal.

I had the chance to talk with an Offensive Security penetration team, and they more or less told me that, their time in Africa made them realize that, in a physical environment, the person will always be the weak link. (aka rubber hose attack)

And, personally, if I sit down and think about it, I buy very little privacy or protection from encrypting. But, I lose performance, and make the possibility of losing access to my own data much higher.

I'm excited by the idea of an NYC mayor who isn't awful.

When is the last time that NYC had a mayor who was halfway decent?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_…

I was going to post a poll, but I have no idea how far back you'd need to go to get a non-shitty mayor, and NYC has had a lot of mayors. Probably would need more than 4 poll options.

EDIT: This was not a rhetorical question, I genuinely want to know who was the last NYC mayor you think did a good job!

in reply to Nelson

I don't know (I was pretty young when he was mayor, and I'm not from New York City), but I don't remember anything bad about him. I guess that was my point.

I remember a lot of bad things about Giuliani (even before Trump) for example.

Koch seemed to be well-liked by a lot of people and I don't remember any major scandals or bad press. Unlike say Reagan (who I think was President at the time) and him and the whole Iran-Contra scandal.

Koch -- to me as a young ousider -- seemed pretty decent but maybe my views are skewed.

Definitely not Bloomberg. That guy was an ass.

The biggest media failure on the bombing of Iran is that every article should have started with: "The Iran nuclear deal signed in 2015 effectively curtailed Iran's nuclear program until the US withdrew in 2018, under pressure from Israel".

Without this context, any commentary is worthless.

Natasha Bertrand should be FIRED from CNN! I watched her for three days doing Fake News. She should be IMMEDIATELY reprimanded, and then thrown out “like a dog.” She lied on the Laptop from Hell Story, and now she lied on the Nuclear Sites Story, attempting to destroy our Patriot Pilots by making them look bad when, in fact, they did a GREAT job and hit “pay dirt” — TOTAL OBLITERATION! She should not be allowed to work at Fake News CNN. It’s people like her who destroyed the reputation of a once great Network. Her slant was so obviously negative, besides, she doesn’t have what it takes to be an on camera correspondent, not even close. FIRE NATASHA!

I ran across a reference to this book from 1961: the title piqued my interest.

The Myth of Mental Illness: Foundations of a Theory of Personal Conduct by Thomas Szasz

then I found this review of the book from the NYT from back in 1961... (things sure have changed at the old grey lady.)

“The landmark book that argued that psychiatry consistently expands its definition of mental illness to impose its authority over moral and cultural conflict.” — New York Times

I'll be picking this book up.

#Freispruch nach verbotener #Palästina-Parole in Berlin

»Dass „From the River to the Sea“ als Kennzeichen der #Hamas zu verstehen sei, sah die Richterin am Freitag nicht. Sie habe schon zuvor Bedenken über den ergangenen Strafbefehl geäußert, sagte sie. Durch die Vorstellung einer ausführlichen historisch-wissenschaftlichen Analyse der Parole durch eine LKA-Sachverständige kam die Richterin aus mehreren Gründen zu der Überzeugung, dass es sich nicht um ein Hamas-Kennzeichen handele.
[…]
Auch werde der Spruch von der Hamas in dieser Form gar nicht verwendet, lediglich Teile davon oder in Abwandlung. Und im Übrigen nutzten andere Akteur:innen, auch in Israel, ebenfalls Varianten der Parole.
[…]
Personen wegen des Spruchs „From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free“ anzuklagen, [hielt die Richterin] für die „Kriminalisierung von politischem Protest“.«
