Tell me more about SSL certificate forgery. As far as I know, for a device to trust it, it needs to be signed by a trusted CA. You'd either need to compromise a CA and create your own certificate for the website or make the target device trust a custom CA. In the case of a custom CA, the user explicitly needs to perform an action to trust it. How is this not enough on a public network?

As much as I hate Elmo, I still value truth more. There is 0 evidence he's behind that account. And given that the account claims to own Twitter (= claims to be Elmo), it's far more likely to be a troll than a secret-but-not-secret account by the richest fuckface in the world

I have to use Windows for work. A few days ago I pressed the button to update and shut down as I started preparing to leave. I went away for a bit and when I came back to get my stuff, the computer was back at the login screen. It updated and restarted. Windows really does do that. I hate it.

The admins will be helping us and will provide us with a breakdown of votes by account age and sub activity.

and respect the results of the poll

If the results of the poll show the community wants us to participate and protest the changes, admins have promised us to respect that will and work on our demands.

Despite the results given by Reddit administrators themselves being clearly in favor of blackout, Reddit broke their promise forcing the subreddit to reopen.

Fuck spez.

Deadlines

Throughout school I used to panic a couple days before the deadline that I had to get something done. I tried to work on the essays but didn't manage to do anything and then got a lot calmer as I told myself that I'd easily have enough time if I started the next day. Then the next day came and I panicked again, until I ran some calculations in my head that I'd be able to make it if I started in the evening. And this continued through several cycles until I went into full panic and despair 30 minutes before the deadline.

I could rarely make it on time.

Somehow the closer I got to the deadline the less time it felt like the project would take. My procrastinative brain took over and made up excuses to not have to do it yet as there was still plenty of time. I almost failed 8th grade because of that. Fucking 8th grade. And I didn't even relax while procrastinating!
