Using the gay dating app Grindr and the screen name str8 curious, McGee allegedly arranged to meet a man at his apartment in Eugene. There, McGee is accused of bludgeoning the man with a wooden club known as a tire thumper, resembling a small baseball bat." [02:53] DaemonFC "The alleged attack was interrupted by local police who were summoned by neighbors that heard the mans cries of pain. The man survived but suffered life threatening injuries, according to court documents, including head trauma that included the removal of part of the scalp covering an area of roughly four inches by five inches on the back of his head. [02:53] DaemonFC " [02:54] DaemonFC There are serial killers on these apps, schestowitz [02:54] DaemonFC Obviously nobody screens for that, and do you think that the police are usually going to solve any of it, much less prevent it? [02:57] DaemonFC When I was on Grindr I had a lot of bad stuff being sent to me. [02:57] DaemonFC One guy started sending me pictures of cocaine and asking if I wanted some. [02:57] DaemonFC Some blank profile messaged me and said he was 14 and wanted to know if I would pay for sex. [02:58] DaemonFC I mean, this app is just bad, bad, bad. [02:58] DaemonFC And there were lots of obvious police honeypot profiles too. [02:58] DaemonFC Like, they had very similar looking profile pictures with partial face and they'd all say things like "young, in hs", and were obviously copy/pasted. [02:59] DaemonFC Some would message you and say they were like 14, 15, 16, and ask if you wanted to meet. [02:59] DaemonFC Obvious setup. [02:59] DaemonFC It's the cops.

[03:06] DaemonFC There's no such thing as "banishment" from a city or state under the US legal system. ;) [03:07] DaemonFC The Chinese government's position is that if you insult the Communist Party, you insult "all 1.4 billion Chinese people". [03:07] DaemonFC They just say it over and over again and it's fucking stupid. [03:07] DaemonFC I know they have no control over their government and I know that many of them are horrified by it and are watching their tongue because they don't want to be disappeared and murdered.

Well, I don't think the civilians were ever seen as the enemy. [03:10] DaemonFC You get fooled into going too far down a path like that, and you can't vote your way back out again and you can end up as much of a victim as anyone. [03:11] DaemonFC The Nazis and the Chinese Communists are similar in that they had roots going deep down, total control of the state, and no individual people were powerful enough to do anything to get them back out at that point. [03:11] DaemonFC So they just stay quiet. [03:12] DaemonFC The Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States is only recently waking up and realizing that the Chinese owning all of our stuff is probably not good. [03:12] DaemonFC So we're starting to engage in just a little protectionism. [03:12] DaemonFC But it comes after years of de-industrialization. [03:13] DaemonFC The US has been weakened into depending on foreign sweatshops and now the lies of the "service economy" are exposed. [03:13] DaemonFC schestowitz, It's not that recovery is impossible. [03:14] DaemonFC It's that none of the current politicians are interested in doing what's necessary, which is immediately repealing the "trade" deals that enabled this, putting the corporations that use these sweatshops on notice.p [03:14] DaemonFC Biden recently stopped Intel from expanding chip production in China, apparently.

[03:17] DaemonFC Android really has nothing to do with GNU, and Grindr is dangerous, not just to privacy, but because the cops are trying to bait gay people into jail cells, and there's all sorts of perverts and serial killers on it. [03:18] DaemonFC Illinois has no close in age exemption. [03:19] DaemonFC So conceivably they could arrest an 18 year old who agrees to meet a 16 year old.

[18:59] DaemonFC schestowitz, I got an Apple fanboy comment on my blog, so I responded. [18:59] DaemonFC Anyway, they were defending the "no sideloading" thing. [18:59] DaemonFC I think they missed my point about Windows. ● Dec 07 [19:00] SomeH4x0r what is sideloading about? [19:00] DaemonFC NSIS is probably the closest thing to a reliable installer framework Windows has ever had. [19:00] DaemonFC Certainly the most reliable, and affordable (gratis and open source) option for independent developers. [19:00] DaemonFC what is sideloading about? [19:01] DaemonFC Like, if you install a program onto your computer that's not from an "official" source, they've termed this "sideloading". [19:01] DaemonFC It's just another way to install software. Of course, it's more dangerous to use local packages if you have no way of authenticating the source, but what's usually in those packages are binaries built from god only knows what. [19:02] DaemonFC So you have a much bigger problem with proprietary software than what package method was used. [19:02] SomeH4x0r I see, e.g. BitTorrent? [19:02] XRevan86 SomeH4x0r: It means getting an application not from the default repository in that operating system. [19:03] XRevan86 SomeH4x0r: It's a very Android/iOS kind of term. [19:03] DaemonFC Well, the official client "BitTorrent" and "uTorrent" (same company) are no good. [19:03] DaemonFC The protocol is in the public domain, and so anyone can implement it. [19:03] DaemonFC The official software is proprietary and has, off and on, definitely included a malware bundle. [19:03] DaemonFC Coin miners, adware, etc. [19:04] SomeH4x0r oh, I see, was confused a bit about Windows which only recently added a package repository afaik [19:04] SomeH4x0r no, I mean the protocol, which is called BitTorrent too. I don't trust the mentioned clients. [19:04] XRevan86 SomeH4x0r: Technically not installing through Microsoft Store is "sideloading". [19:04] DaemonFC But if you get QBittorrent or Transmission, for example, out of Debian's archive or Flatpak, it should be safe. [19:05] SomeH4x0r qBittorrent sometimes starts using a lot of my CPU for unknown reason. I think I need to switch to something else, maybe something CLI. [19:05] DaemonFC The less you have to "take their word" for what's in it, the more you can generally trust the program. And, also, Web browsers have been cutting off download methods that are unencrypted. [19:06] DaemonFC So, one threat over like, FTP, is that the data gets replaced by a "man in the middle" attack. [19:06] XRevan86 SomeH4x0r: There's also such a thing as ADB sideload. [19:06] DaemonFC You think you downloaded something from an FTP server, but an attacker somewhere along the way slips you something else. [19:07] DaemonFC There's a million ways to trick the user. [19:07] DaemonFC And that's almost always easier than attacking some software directly. [19:07] SomeH4x0r I think it is easier to encounter a MITM which works even with encryption (e.g. Cloudflare) than to get a specific file replaced by some attacker. [19:08] DaemonFC Best practices all around include remaining vigilant about where you dig up your software, using open source software that is out there for all to see, and using efficient software that is written to be small and possible to audit for security, and installing patches quickly. [19:08] SomeH4x0r I only had a little experience with Android, eventually I quit after I realized something is out of order there. Like a device not receiving updates, while there is no reason for it not to be updated. [19:08] DaemonFC Debian ticks off most of the "software" part, except that Mozilla is becoming a hostile upstream and difficult to keep up to date. [19:08] DaemonFC So I use GNOME Web and Brave. [19:09] SomeH4x0r Brave is based on Chromium iirc. No idea about GNOME Web. [19:09] DaemonFC It's a shell around WebkitGTK written in GTK and C mostly. [19:10] DaemonFC The browser part is just like a couple of MB. I hate to compare this to IE or something, but the shell is not the majority of the browser. [19:10] SomeH4x0r oh, WebkitGTK is familiar to me as well. So it seems no real choice.

[19:12] DaemonFC Gecko hardly even changes at all this time around. [19:12] DaemonFC Other than the security patches, hardly any reason at all to update. [19:12] DaemonFC This is months of work, you know. [19:12] DaemonFC It's all grinding to a halt after the layoffs. [19:13] DaemonFC This is awful. [19:14] DaemonFC They justified these stupid rapid releases by saying that the Web changes so fast, we need to keep up. [19:14] DaemonFC And then scarcely any big updates. [19:15] DaemonFC "Weve added a User Agent override for Slack.com, which allows Firefox users to use more Call features and have access to Huddles." [19:15] DaemonFC Yeah, they can act fast on UA changes when it's proprietary software that they use now instead of IRC that's shutting Firefox out and annoying them. That's nice.
