Topic | Biden Does Something Good Again |
Anteaterking 04/25/24 12:02:43 AM #25 | LightHawKnight posted...
The thing is, the only really awful thing Biden really has done is what every single US president would have done, support Israel. I'm not saying "don't vote for Biden", but he has gone far and above his obligation as US president in order to support Israel. He's more pro-Israel than Reagan was, for example. There are plenty on things that he has done that would lose him no votes but do cost him votes (no one would have been like "I'm not voting for Biden because he gave them X bombs instead of Y") --- http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b136/Anteaterking/scan00021.jpg http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b136/Anteaterking/scan00021.jpg |

I get why crypto has value, what Ive never been able to understand is what mining crypto is At a very basic level, everyone who is "mining" bitcoin is trying to come up with a value that when you plug it into a function has a sufficient number of 0s at the beginning of the output. This function is something where there isn't a "better" way of finding a value besides just brute force trying them. By changing the number of 0s required, you change how many values people have to try on average before success and so you can control it so that roughly every 10 minutes someone in the world will find it. --- http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b136/Anteaterking/scan00021.jpg http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b136/Anteaterking/scan00021.jpg |

What I mean is, if the race has a record, it's weird to me for someone who can break it to run it but as someone keeping pace for a person who hired them to help them break the record instead. Unless I'm misunderstanding and the hired guys didn't run the full race, but the article makes it sound like they did. Yeah the only other thing I could think of is if they didn't qualify for some reason? E.g. it would make sense to have a pacemaker under 40 if it was a 40+ race even if that 40 year old could crush the older people.

Topic | You have to be insane not to vote for Biden |
Anteaterking 04/11/24 10:40:07 PM #285 | I'm going to ask the people on CE who are spending so much energy vote shaming: what would you do in order to get one more person to vote for Biden in (pick your favorite swing state)?
Throw aside legality for a second, if you could pay someone on Gamefaqs $10 to vote for Biden, would you? AlCalavicci posted... I'm asking you why voting is not a waste of time for you when you know that voting third party will not ever result in a chance of your candidate winning. I could somewhat see some logic if you were voting for other candidates for other races on the ballot but you stated you only vote for President. So you are literally wasting your time by voting, because you aren't actually voting for a candidate that has a chance of winning, and you aren't voting for any of the seats. As someone who also lives in Maryland, voting the top of the ballot in the election *is* a waste of time. Thankfully it has the outcome I want it to have. --- http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b136/Anteaterking/scan00021.jpg http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b136/Anteaterking/scan00021.jpg |

Topic | the xz backdoor was caught before it could be used |
Anteaterking 04/05/24 10:11:17 PM #23 | pikakaeru posted...
tldr on what it can do? openssh is the main way that people log into other computers from Linux (e.g. I ssh into different machines at my workplace through it). xz is a dependency for things that are dependencies for ssh even though it doesn't directly use it, so when you're installing your operating system (or updating it), it gets to load before openssh does. It took advantage of this to backdoor openssh. What does the backdoor do? Ssh uses certificates the same way that when you go to sites on the internet certificates are exchanged that are like "yes you can trust me that I'm gamefaqs.com". The attacker set it up so that any message that was signed with their private certificate would be run by the system at the level of root (the most powerful permission in linux, think "admin") because ssh has to run as root even if the person running it doesn't have root permissions. So at this point they have remote code execution, which means they could run any command they wanted on any computer that had this back door and likely would have used this as vector to drop down actual tooling that lets them e.g. steal credentials, take files, etc. --- http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b136/Anteaterking/scan00021.jpg http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b136/Anteaterking/scan00021.jpg |

Topic | Do u think Israel is going to cost Biden the election? |
Anteaterking 04/03/24 12:21:39 AM #96 | Let's say hypothetically that Joe Biden's position on Israel costs him X votes in the right places and he then loses by < X votes. You can go all out blaming the X voters for that, but if Biden could have made different decisions that lost him fewer votes (for example, he's made decisions that go *beyond* what your average Biden-supporting Israel-defending Liberal would demand) and changed the outcome, it's still his fault far more than it is any individual who didn't vote for him.
As someone who will vote for Biden in a state that will almost certainly go for him regardless of my input, it's still annoying for me to see people micro-target people who are like "actually this might negatively impact how likely I am to vote for Biden" if they're not going to make a case that Biden will lose *more* votes by taking [different position]. The Biden administration should be actively trying to win the election rather than just saying "Trump would be worse" and hoping that helps them cross the finish line. The idea that the Democratic candidate can be as **** as they want to if they're facing Trump is just as dumb as 2016 when I voted for Hillary (though in Nebraska so it was basically worthless). --- http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b136/Anteaterking/scan00021.jpg http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b136/Anteaterking/scan00021.jpg |

Is that because men's brains are superior, or because men have been socialized and marketed to take up these kinds of hobbies and women are not - so therefore the pool of competitors among men is much, much larger and likely to be have a larger number of skilled competitors? It also takes time. Looking at the top of these games, we're not seeing the results of gender norms in the present, we're seeing the results of gender norms ~15 years ago. So even if you thought that everything was solved and there were no problems left (which I would disagree with anyway), you still wouldn't see gender parity in chess for a decade. --- http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b136/Anteaterking/scan00021.jpg http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b136/Anteaterking/scan00021.jpg |
