Our Response to Hashicorp's Cease and Desist Letter | OpenTofu

This is unrelated to this topic exactly, but I don’t know what OpenTofu is nor what it is for, so I looked at the FAQ.

What is OpenTofu?

OpenTofu is a Terraform fork, created as an initiative of Gruntwork, Spacelift, Harness, Env0, Scalr, and others, in response to HashiCorp’s switch from an open-source license to the BUSL. The initiative has many supporters, all of whom are listed here.

This is practically a meme…I have no idea what all of these are (coming from my area of expertise).

People who park in the handicapped ramp boil my blood.

So people are aware: If you are handicapped, you CAN park in the striped lines. In many cases, it’s the only feasible option for that person to safely exit.

For example: If directly to the left of the spot is a wall and your vehicles’ automated ramp deploys to the left, they have to park in the stripes.

Adding insult to injury in this case, it’s possible the handicapped person can’t enter their fucking car.

Ukraine says it has uncovered major arms corruption

All of those opposition parties banned have explicitly been in favor of Russia annexing Ukraine. Literally every one.

Not only that, you make it sound like he did this by himself. There has been a ton of parliamentary agreement and has also been upheld in numerous appeals (incl by judges not having any associations with Zelensky).

I’m by no means a “Zelensky-stan” and have my own criticisms, but either you are seriously being misled or are being malicious/spreading misinformation.

Not only that, Ukraine runs a parliamentary government. There is no “opposition party”. Americans for some reason always view foreign government political parties through the lens of American politics. This is not like the government banning Republicans. This is like banning the “Socialists for the release of Alaska to Russia” party.

Do you utilize a dedicated AV like Bitdefender when sailing? Or do you still trust Windows Defender to take care of the higher risk while doing this?

I don’t (generally) sail the high seas, but I’m surprised that people don’t use SysInternals tooling on windows. Of note:

  • ProcExp - A way better process explorer and has a built-in VirusTotal scanner for all running processes. 100 times better than standard process explorer. This in combination with windows defender is nearly always enough.

  • AutoRuns - A tool to see what automatically runs on your system. Included image hijacks and such. This is for handling potential post-infection scenarios.

How Hidden Nazi Symbols Were the Tip of a Toxic Iceberg at Life Is Strange Developer Deck Nine - IGN

It most definitely takes a lot longer than one minute to check asset files for changes. That’s like saying you can just pop open 200 revisions of a 300MiB PSD file in notepad and see what change it happened in quickly. I don’t imagine somebody will write in their changelist description “submitting Nazi flag, lol” either.

Definitely a long arduous process to determine it.

How did we get humans on the moon in 1969 and are still struggling to get the Starship rocket to launch properly?

There was no need to produce the items in question, so we lost the expertise and the underlying manufacturing facilities/experience/etc. Stuff like: The company that made the windows no longer exists. The company that made the panels still exists, but they can no longer source the strictly defined % alloys as that company no longer exists. Stuff like that.

The Government that can't seem to work out that invading someone else's sovereign territory resulting in them sinking your warship with regular weapons is not illegal.

The issue in question was that Britain designated a specific area around the Falklands as a “no sail zone” and the destroyer was outside that area. It was sailing directly into towards the zone, however.

Even so: As mentioned elsewhere, the captain of said ship even said he was a legitimate target.

EDIT Shit, this is NCD….all according to plan? Destroyer upgraded to submarine.
