The demand for evidence in the wake of all the NSA leaks is laughable.[0] What does evidence of the NSAKEY being a backdoor look like to you, a provably malicious CSA shim, signed by the key, hand delivered by James…
It was a debugging symbol that a Microsoft developer either negligently or heroically included in a public release... so that explains away the "nobody would be so stupid" argument. You are aware of how the Intel ME…

This is one of those situations that makes me wonder at how obvious the right way to go is, and how unlikely that is to happen. Offense/defense costs are not even close to being symmetrical, it is insane that the USG…
This, unfortunately, occurs so infrequently that it can safely be ignored by 99.9% of the economy. Businesses have really enjoyed having their cake and eating it too with the transition away from a highly involved…

There is a good chance they subscribe to a blocklist, so you could be blocked by anyone of a thousand people. Image the old PGP web of trust, but for crafting perfect echo chambers. I wonder if anybody has ever done the…
The insane spike is for low traffic sites, so I'm guessing a blog platform defaulted RSS.
Wow, to base such a lengthy article on a google trend search of "rss"... Queue rekt.webm: https://trends.builtwith.com/feeds/RSS
I'm curious, how are you defining "the like"? The list of people denied service looks a lot more like those you wouldn't want preceding your Coca-Cola ad buy. Why would Patreon care? Because payment networks care. 8chan…
I'd say the former, but it really doesn't matter - the point is the subjectivity of collective "good" and "correctness". Also, a lot of people are under the impression that these things are numerically based - the…
One literally defines the other, so no. Unless you are speaking from a universal perspective, which unfortunately isn't really part of the collective consciousness - and therefor inconsequential to daily life and the…

Hopefully it gets better with time for you. My complaint wasn't with pain, but numbness. I developed this problem very early on, in SOI, and kept it to myself because I knew that it would get me medically discharged.…
It sounds like you never got to use the original SAW barrel. We got issued those stubby paratrooper barrels while in Iraq, which are nice for maneuverability, but it was at the cost of accuracy. The M249 was always a…
I disagree. The USMC doctrine on this matter has remained the same for generations, so that doesn't explain the increasing loadout. Also, and I don't know what the official Army guidance is on matter, but we took over…
For a long time I was pretty irritated about landing in a line company instead of a mounted weapons company... but after a combat tour, where the majority of KIA was from roadside IEDs, I didn't mind walking so much.…
I actually wrote an essay that dug pretty deep into this topic, many years ago, after I finished my enlistment as a Marine infantry machinegunner - likely the most overburdened MOS. I'm surprised this didn't get a…
