• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MD = oMega Dumbass⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s definitely false. Only a small percentage of people globally die while in water, while nearly everybody dies in a gas.

  Plus, you are ignoring the addictive properties of gasses. While withdrawal symptoms of moderately addictive water take days to get serious, the withdrawal symptoms of much more addictive gases occur within only a couple minutes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨McDonald’s AI Hiring Bot Exposed Millions of Applicants’ Data to Hackers Who Tried the Password ‘123456’⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think you were quite grasping the scope the McDonald’s operates at. That’s only a couple hundred per location, and fast food restaurants tend to have extremely high turnover, so that’s definitely not an unrealistic number.

  Hey, at least being fat doesn’t create an aura of stench that makes anyone nearby miserable.

  Because drones are expensive, and it would be a waste of money to use them on poor people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Operation Narnia: Iran’s nuclear scientists reportedly killed simultaneously using special weapon⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, if I was a key part of the nuclear program of the US, and there was another country specifically targeting the US’s nuclear program, I would assume myself to be at Target.

  I feel like heat would start to become a serious issue at that point.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This new 40TB hard drive from Seagate is just the beginning—50TB is coming fast!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s what I use, but I don’t think anybody would say that next cloud is a simple app.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Have I Been Pwned owner, pwned.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Most companies add an email header like “X-PHISHTEST” to the phishing tests (and a corresponding spam filter rule) to ensure they don’t get caught by spam filters. If you look at the headers of a spam email, the company test emails will have that header.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Have I Been Pwned owner, pwned.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If you look at the headers, you can tell which ones are fake phishing and real phishing.
