DNC releases 2024 autopsy, with chair apologizing for ‘creating an even bigger distraction’ by MoonMelon in c/news@hexbear.net

Seems unfinished and lacking specifics. Gotta love the annotations.

"Trump fucking plastered us"

^^^^ SOURCE??!?!?

Just fantastic analysis here. Love the Redditisms and corporate nonsense language. There's some genuine nuggets of truth about how the party needs to actually represent the people and not just the rich that I'm sure they'll pretend they didn't see. This is the most milquetoast analysis of their failures and you can still feel their seething petulance to every page.

Edit: God damn this is just terrible. Why wouldn't you finish this before releasing it? Ken Martin and the DNC thinks the pressure will be off now? They look like total fucking idiots.

Disney sued over facial recognition at parks by MoonMelon in c/privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

[-] MoonMelon@lemmy.ml 2 points 7 hours ago

At this point to become a Disney "cast member" you probably have to give up tons of biometric data, hand over every piece of sensitive personal information you have, and install one or more sketchy apps on your personal smartphone. If the public wants that data they can just wait for the inevitable data leak from one of the thousands of "partners" who purchase it.

‘Lesson learned’: Arizona college’s AI system botches graduation, gets booed by MoonMelon in c/tech_dystopia@lemmy.ml

If you're the head dean, or whatever, isn't this one of the best parts of your job? Why would you want AI to do this?

18 years after Californians voted for High Speed Rail, with the SF-to-not-quite-LA segment still >12 years off, state is now exploring *High Speed Buses* to connect SF and LA in 3h at 140mph (225km/h) by MoonMelon in c/nottheonion@lemmy.ml

Even if the vehicle itself is possible nothing is taking the existing highway curves at that speed. Either they need to have a huge radius or be banked. It's just ridiculous. It's like reading the hyperloop propaganda all over again.

It's pathetic, especially so because the busses will not happen either.

Linus Torvalds says AI-powered bug hunters have made Linux security mailing list ‘almost entirely unmanageable’ by MoonMelon in c/cybersecurity@sh.itjust.works

You know those bug reports where the user somehow didn't see the huge bug report right on the front page with 100 comments, pinned to the top of the issues page, and they duplicated it? Where they didn't provide a log or a stack trace, or even their system specs? The kind of report which caused the developers to implement a massive issue template that the user just ignored?

We automated that 😎

That template? — Filled with garbage.

That stack trace? — Contains methods that don't actually exist.

It's not debugging, it's deblowmyfuckingbrainsout.

Native kids with disabilities were held in wooden boxes | schools on St. Regis Mohawk Reservation locked Native kindergarteners in wooden crates like animals. In 2025. Not 1825. Fucking *2025*. by MoonMelon in c/landback@slrpnk.net

I clicked before I read the title fully and, like you, I thought this was from 1860 or something. What the fuck.

In this episode Butters is visiting Niagara Falls as a tourist, but he is arrested for being a foreigner. Nobody cares about his passport or the fact he was there "legally" and he gets funneled into a huge prison facility called "Alberta Alcatraz".

After several scary experiences he is in line for a phone call. When he gets to the front the guard pretends to not understand what he is asking for.

Guard: WELL, what do YOU WANT?
Butters: Uhh I want to make a phone call, please.
Guard: Puh-hone call? Puh-hone? What's that?
Butters: I don't understand mister. I'd like to call someone on that phone.
Guard: Oh THIS? DO YOU MEAN-

The guard lets out a long, trumpet-like fart that sounds like, "fooooooooooone".

Butters: Wha--- what?
Guard 2: YEAH! YOU MEAN- (farting) foooooooooooone!

Apparently this is how Canadians make the word, "phone".

Guard 2: HEY THIS LITTLE YANK CAN'T SAY- (farting) ffhhhooooooone!!
Guard: HAHA!!! (farting) fuuuooooooooooooooone!

All guards start laughing at Butters and farting "fooooone". They can all apparently do this quite naturally.

Butters: B-but, I don't have to fart right now.
Guard: IF YOU WANT SOMETHING YOU NEED TO LEARN TO SPEAK CANADIAN!

Butters resolves to save up his farts to get his phone call. Several days pass. Now trembling and sweating, a pale Butters can barely stand in line.

Butters: Oh man... I gotta make it...

The inmate in front of him effortlessly farts "foooooooooone" and is let ahead. Butters is up.

Guard: YEAH? WHAT DO YOU WANT THIS TIME?
Butters: I want... I want... I... uh... UH.... ahhH!!

Butters loses control of his bowels and sprays shit in all directions, then collapses. Everyone around yells in disbelief and disgust.

A large inmate walks up and looks down.

It's OK little buddy, my cousin had that same speech impediment.

Then I woke up.

Reddit and FaceID Verification by MoonMelon in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

There's no way they want to eliminate bot traffic, it would kill 2/3rds of their traffic instantly. So this just means, "bots that aren't paying us."

Does using Cloudflare's cdnjs compromise privacy? (lemmy.ml)

Prefacing by saying I'm a total noob to webdev.

I'm trying to move my personal portfolio site off of Squarespace and onto some sort of static hosting. Since I know nothing, I'm cobbling together hugo templates and using LightBox2 to show image galleries. The blog I'm referencing includes LightBox2 using this:

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.4.1/jquery.min.js" integrity="sha256-CSXorXvZcTkaix6Yvo6HppcZGetbYMGWSFlBw8HfCJo=" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/lightbox2/2.11.1/js/lightbox.min.js" integrity="sha256-CtKylYan+AJuoH8jrMht1+1PMhMqrKnB8K5g012WN5I=" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

I would prefer to not subject people viewing my page to any external tracking if I can avoid it. My page has zero tracking/analytics for this reason. I briefly tried downloading LightBox2 and directly including it instead, and was able to get it working mostly, but some things were broken that I would need to debug. Before I do that I was wondering, is this even a problem? Is including stuff from cloudflare cdn like this sketchy? It's possible I'm being overly paranoid but I have no idea.
