- Comment on Lady Gaga bomb plot: Thwarted plan lifts veil on the gamification of hate and gendered nature of online radicalization 1 day ago:
I’m not saying it’s reasonable per se, just that it’s not as rare as one might hope. People have been killed for much less all throughout history.

Was it? Ooh damn, that fits the profile to a “T” then. I don’t follow celebrity news, I guess that she’s a pretty staunch/vocal supporter of LGBT+ issues?
- Comment on Lady Gaga bomb plot: Thwarted plan lifts veil on the gamification of hate and gendered nature of online radicalization 1 day ago:
Valid point, I guess, but it’s not exactly the internet specifically that’s the source of the issue IMO. I’d say that people hating specific musicians whose music they don’t like/annoys them has been an issue for aeons, but it’s harder to completely escape their tunes now that it’s played practically everywhere 24/7 - mall PAs, the cell phones of people passing you in the street, etc.
The 'net is just the most recent forum to gripe about how annoying so-and-so’s music is, although in a sense it seems to have gotten more extreme in the vacuum provided by online forums. It would take quite a bit for a conversation about an annoying lutist, opera diva, etc. to escalate to plans for murder in the 1st-19th centuries by comparison, despite it presumably happening a few times probably.
- Comment on People have private conversations on speaker phone but if I participate then I'm the crazy one 1 day ago:
Make random jungle and peacock noises close to them. Nothing makes them want a more private conversation than the person on the other end saying that it sounds like they were lying about where they are. Sex moaning and sloppy liquid pulching sound effects optional depending on others nearby.

If the Reagan administration’s legacy is any indication, no, no it won’t. Things will continue being fucked and getting worse decades from now.

Exactly right. I still can’t believe that George W. Bush was permitted to run for the Republican party. The man’s mind is like Newton’s Cradle with the five brain cells clacking together, it was brutal to watch.

- Comment on 4chan’s ‘cesspool of the internet’ is down after apparently being hacked 4 weeks ago:
User’s data was breached, I laughed because I’m not one of them. This isn’t a doctoral dissertation, I don’t care how it works.
- Comment on 4chan’s ‘cesspool of the internet’ is down after apparently being hacked 4 weeks ago:
Sure, but lying during a process involving security clearance would essentially hang over their head the entire time that they used the credential as a means to get work. It’s not like lying about whether or not you like the food that someone served at a dinner, it sticks.
- Comment on 4chan’s ‘cesspool of the internet’ is down after apparently being hacked 4 weeks ago:
If you say so, I’ll take your word for it.
- Comment on 4chan’s ‘cesspool of the internet’ is down after apparently being hacked 4 weeks ago:
I’ve been told that for clearance above reliability that social media use becomes an issue. 4chan was specifically cited to me by the person with whom I spoke. I’d assume that this means any/all alphabet government agencies, but Army was all that I heard about specifically.
“Do you browse or use 4chan?”
“No.”
“OK, good, because you weren’t advancing beyond this stage if you said yes.”
- Comment on 4chan’s ‘cesspool of the internet’ is down after apparently being hacked 4 weeks ago:
Heard about this just a few hours ago, and have been laughing ever since. This is going to be brutal, there are people who registered with .gov e-mail addresses. As the use of 4chan has been cited to me as potentially disqualifying people seeking security clearance for government, police, or military careers, this hack single-handedly has the potential to torpedo thousands of edgy bois in one fell swoop.
