@Willjum1 @blooprintgames How does @blooprintgames look like a 32yo father of 2 AND a 22yo rust content creator at the same time?

Apple managed to remove the only Find My feature that I have ever used. Why would you get rid of Bluetooth location from find my AirPods? That’s just the worst possible product decision.

@AndyXAndersen @IanColdwater @Grady_Booch there's no indication that compute cost will decrease without significantly sacrificing quality. The $/good answer is too high, and they're subsidizing that cost with investor funding

@heyitsalexsu Assume a fully booked 1st year will bill ~40 hours/wk (it's possible to bill higher) x 50 working weeks/yr (again, staying conservative here) - that estimate is $8.95M/yr. Is that associate making over 100k? Maybe? Probably a little less? So the firm pulls $8.85M...

@Drinkthelion @RiotSupport @taxfraud4 you're playing their game using the game client they wrote. you are connecting to the game server that they own and operate. your voice comm data is passed through their servers in order to reach the other players in the game. how could you possibly expect privacy in this situ?

@JANPAi_ lag switch. they are inducing packet loss so you can't play the game, they get delays but it's smooth on their end

Why do I feel like I’m in a Saw movie every time I need to call @cvspharmacy it can’t be that their phone systems literally just don’t work right?

@SonRebell You kept a ballsy hand, I probably would have mulled that.

@jaylagorio @cyb3rops @TrapaSecurity @Francisckrs What are the chances anyone working on their products saw ur DC talk?

[Thaddeus Walsh @thaddeuswalsh]

@jaylagorio @cyb3rops @TrapaSecurity @Francisckrs How dare you engage with people in a reasonable way? Don’t you know ppl need TIME to PATCH? 🤣

@wizards_magic Could be a great opportunity to talk about PMCs, the history of the Pinkertons, and your take on criminal or civil liability (wizards, their distributor who made the error, Pinkertons, the YouTuber, etc.)

[Thaddeus Walsh @thaddeuswalsh]

If the entire exec team isn’t fired, you’re never getting another dime @wizards_magic - you hired mercenaries to raid someone’s home bc you didn’t like the idea of leaking a set. The problem was w your distributor, not the customer. Absolutely disgusting behavior.

[Thaddeus Walsh @thaddeuswalsh]

@LegalEagle not sure if you think this is worth a video, but Wizards of the Coast hired the Pinkertons to raid a youtuber’s house bc they had sent him boxes of magic cards from an unreleased set instead of the boxes he’d ordered

[Thaddeus Walsh @thaddeuswalsh]

@SilverMoogle YouTuber ordered booster boxes, was sent boxes an unreleased set in error. YouTuber publicizes what he received and made a video posting unreleased cards. Wizards big mad, hires mercenaries to raid youtuber’s house and intimidate him & fam. Error was made by MTG distributor.

@PCzanik @openSUSE @fedora @obshq Random ? about the elasticsearch-http module, yum install syslog-ng doesn’t seem to include that module. Doesn’t work with @module “elasticsearch-http” in the syslog-ng.conf, or by changing default modules. Am I just missing some simple config here?

[Thaddeus Walsh @thaddeuswalsh]

@gmiller @Grady_Booch just because you don't know how something works doesn't mean *everyone* doesn't know how it works it takes a matrix as an input and outputs a different matrix, then different code takes that output matrix to a word:matrix table to get the word. It's not skynet

[Thaddeus Walsh @thaddeuswalsh]

@Grady_Booch That thread reads like someone once heard a drunk person describe the plot of I, Robot at a loud party and decided that was real life.
