Ed Sheeran tour drops Macklemore after his onstage support for Palestine

Reply in thread

Fuck this though, sheeran is a fucking human person with a public platform. He has ingested over half a century of socially and politically aware folk music, stripped it of all its depth, context and activism, and shat out gallons of vapid slag that made him unfathomably personably wealthy. Growing a fucking pair of balls on this issue would have been the absolute minimum amount of effort he could have possibly done. Christ, like it would have honestly costed him a fucking cent to speak out against genocide one time. How the fuck are these the people we have chosen to elevate as a society

Bill Gates Admits ‘Affairs’ With Russian Women as He Apologizes to Foundation Staff Over Epstein Ties: Report

Reply in thread

So he met both these accomplished adult Russian women just going about his billionaire day, nothing to do with his good buddy Jeff whatsoever. When he caught the nasty clap from one of these only two accomplished adult Russian women, he ran straight to his good buddy Jeff for help spiking his wife, even though his good buddy Jeff had nothing to do with trafficking procuring introducing him to these exactly two, definitely adult, women.

I have no further questions, just glad we can finally put these "BILL GATES IS DEFINITELY A PEDOPHILE" rumours to bed. Phew.

Are you people all bots?

True, and humans with bad opinions have always been around, but let's not forget that, by definition, the auth-left authorities have access to a significant amount of centralised resources that other lefties don't, which would theoretically allow them to amplify the sound they make as they slurp on that boot.

Another fucking health app hack

Reply in thread

Yeah mate i think it's fairly likely that many of us on here don't go around installing bullshit apps. I haven't been affected either.

The previous hack (manage my health) was not an app that people installed on their phones, it was a health management portal that patients were signed up to when they enrolled to clinics and practices that made use of that platform. These health providers used this as a database to store the medical information for all their patients. Molemaps, xrays, doctors notes, everything was uploaded, not by patients, but by their medical care providers.

If you're enrolled at a gp it's likely that your data is sitting in a similar system. MyIndici is an example I'm aware of, although it hasn't been hacked to my knowledge.

The concern doesn't stop with health apps either. Any third party data portal/platform is theoretically at risk, and kiwi companies love outsourcing risk to these private corps. Imagine the fallout from a RealMe hack, for example? It's no less likely at this point, and because of the lackluster regulation around these data platforms, they have no real incentive to beef up security. That's the issue here.

Can you explain what you mean about winter ground level intelligence?

Edit: you don't have to explain why Laura is a moron, to be clear. She's doing a fine job of that herself. I'm just curious about that phrase, I've never heard it before.
