It's getting pretty crowded under that bus, but please make yourself at home, Lisa.

I hope you are right, but this administration is not backing down from anything unpopular or unconstitutional. This signals that they are not concerned about future elections, similar to how Russia and many other dictatorships have 'elections'.

Voting will be for optics only, the whole system will be fully compromised by the time mid terms roll around, they won't give up all this power, ever.

Metallica have never been politically polarising. They are about their music and the Metallica family, accepting of both sides, because at the end of the day we are all just people, not fkn sports teams.

The Constitution is just optional reading now. Everyone keeps banging on about it, but as there's no actual consequences for ignoring it, that's exactly what they'll keep on doing! Republicans are the Zero Accountability party!

To be fair, Netanyahu has been claiming an imminent threat from an Iranian nuclear bomb for more than 30 years! That doesn't mean though don't, but little boy cry wolf much!? The disturbing part is that Trump would be easily convinced by someone he himself aspires to be!

Can't we just buddy up to the EU instead? 'Deport' them from Australia and handover the military foothold to the UK, France and Germany perhaps? I don't know how these things work, but that can't be any stupider than that fkd country is right now!

You realise that Trump is a team, with puppet masters. I'd never give him that much credit, because you are right ,he's not smart enough BUT the people around him know exactly how to manipulate him and the American people, he's just the frontman with an exploitable ego..

The National Park Service is retelling the Underground Railroad story as an episode of "Black/White cooperation," and has removed a photo of abolitionist Harriet Tubman.

This was a fantastic episode, amongst many! Your ability to educate in such an easy and approachable way is extremely effective! I'm sick of the format used by popular anti-maga YouTubers, your episodes deliver valuable historical context with a factual lens in such an entertaining way! Epic! 👏🙏

If by some miracle Democrats get back in, this performance will make them look exceptionall! Assuming all is not lost and they manage to turn it around of course. More likely, the country will be burnt to the ground by then. Good luck America, it's been a fun ride!
Schikitar (@schikitar.bsky.social) reply parent
Ran out of characters! 😅 I've not deployed via web portals (had no need to), and have only used half a dozen different implementations, so my knowledge is likely limited on this subject.
Schikitar (@schikitar.bsky.social) reply parent
That's mostly true, I'm not talking RADIUS here (root certs also need to be trusted in the certificate chain). I'm specifically referencing SSL inspection, assuming of course that SSL inspection is being performed! MDM enrollment may be another way to get additional certs installed though..
Schikitar (@schikitar.bsky.social) reply parent
Yes, correct, it's a 'to join the wifi you need to install this cert' situation. Whether users are informed as to why they need to, well that's another story ..and if a device is just handed to someone in IT to 'just make it work', then they'll likely just install that cert and not say a word.
Schikitar (@schikitar.bsky.social) reply parent
Doesn't matter, personal devices would still likely have a cert installed to decrypt all traffic for inspection. That's what we did in the last school I worked at, except we didn't intercept sensitive services e.g. banking sites. This was purely so we could provide duty of care to students.

Even better, get a burner laptop, join their wifi, install malware, put it in the roofspace and let it go wild!! 😅

MAGA controls all three levels of government and Trump is doing whatever the hell he wants and getting away with it, so I'd like to see the ten step plan to "stop the bleeding"! PS. Don't bother putting midterms or the next presidential election down on that list, gonna need something more radical!
Schikitar (@schikitar.bsky.social) reply parent
Well I certainly want to agree with you, but my point is there may not be another chance to rebuild for some time! Look how long any installed dictator rules for, it's much longer than 4 years, so if you think there will be another fair election that affords that opportunity then that's the naivety.
Schikitar (@schikitar.bsky.social) reply parent
You would hope not, but it won't matter, there won't be another fair election so it literally could be any puppet!
Schikitar (@schikitar.bsky.social) reply parent
I wouldn't count on that, just look at the long list Project 25 contributors, or tighter within his circle, I wouldn't even rule out Don Jr or Musk himself. You give Trump too much credit, he is just the CEO of EvilCorp and 'the Board' will easily replace him to ensure returns to 'the shareholders'!
Schikitar (@schikitar.bsky.social) reply parent
I thought Bernie should have been president back in 2020 - he was stronger than Biden, more 'radical' which America clearly wanted (one way or the other), and he's still going strong with no sign of slowing down! Respect!

Schikitar (@schikitar.bsky.social) reply parent
It would be extremely naive of anyone to assume that with Trump out of the way that everything would go back to the way it was. This is an iceberg movement, and Trump is 'just the tip', he would be martyred and replaced quickly by the MAGA underbelly.

In case you didn't notice, no one is playing by 'the rules' anymore. This decision was grossly miscalculated, neglectful, and in self-service to your pride. Letting 'the enemy within' blackmail you with your own stubbornness serves no long term strategic value. On the senate floor it is war, fight!

The lack of basic cybersecurity knowledge here is frightening! I ran school laptop programs for over 15 years (Win/Mac), so I have some thoughts - the most important being that parents should prioritise the safety of their children, and that starts with device security and good digital hygiene!

The hypocrisy MAGA exhibits when they themselves bang on about protecting their own rights and freedoms is insane. Unfortunately those same expectations don't extend to non-MAGA, aka 'other' Americans.

4) MAGA succeeds yet again in establishing a new distraction every day/week from the issues that matter, that people should actually be focusing on. It's his whole 'smoke and mirrrors' playbook.
