Members tend not do their own research and only live to complain about the existence of it.

But then

lets me know to look for certain things on the article before I enter so I know if I should take it with a grain of salt or not.

You are talking about yourself in the first sentence.

I was at a bar a while back and the talk stuck with me. He was a Israeli who moved to America about twenty years ago and still visits Israel to see his family.

He said, "Americans have to stop seeing America as being #1 at anything." We talked about Israel and Palestine, we talked about the current White House bs, and afterwards, I finally understood what he was saying, especially with the lens of him being an Israeli.

America is America. It's a place that exists. The rest of the world has a lot better everything. It's like living in a small backwater town: You know it's shit, and it wont magically become something it's not, especially if the Mayor and the Sheriff are inbred hicks who bang each other's sister wives. Maybe you grow your nestegg until you can move. Or maybe you carve out a piece of the shit hole. But know that it's a shit hole.

That's America. Just keep milking because the lunatics are out of their cage.

Thanks to all these bad decisions, hundreds of jobs are gone, our stock is shit, our games aren't selling.

But fortunately, we gave those bad upper management a nice severance package and they'll be taken care of!

Thanks Ubisoft!

Summary

Alan Filion, an 18-year-old from California, was sentenced to four years in federal prison for orchestrating 375 swatting incidents between August 2022 and January 2024. Operating under various aliases, Filion charged clients for making false emergency calls that prompted significant police responses. His hoaxes included threats of school shootings and bombings, targeting institutions across the U.S., U.K., and Canada. Despite being questioned by the FBI in July 2023, he continued his activities until his arrest in January 2024, where he pled guilty to multiple charges.

 

A project called "Remove-DEI" shows the tweaks used to remove "forbidden words" from a database about childhood school readiness.

The updates, shown in Github commits, are to a database for the Department of Health and Human Services’ Head Start program. They show a project called “Remove-DEI,” which reveal some of the back-and-forth that is happening behind the scenes to align federal agencies with Donald Trump’s executive orders that forbid almost anything having to do with race or gender within federal agencies. The Github pages show software engineers discussing amongst themselves how to best remove all instances of “forbidden words” from a specific database, and the code updates they used to do it. The changes also show that, while thousands of government datasets are disappearing from the internet, even ones that remain are having parts of their utility deprecated or broken in a way that may not be visible to those outside the government.
