I worked there over 35 years ago so what I saw then is no longer valid now. I just don’t shop there now because they’re even worse assholes than back then.

But this probably has nothing to do with safety and everything to do with employee surveillance with a pinch of voyeurism.

Yup. I worked for them many years ago. The shit I saw made me forego ever shopping there again.

Experts generally believe a small mount of stable explosive was carefully implanted into each sabotaged device. Alan Woodward, a professor of cybersecurity at Surrey University, said: “There wouldn’t need to be much explosive, as proximity to a human body means it would cause injury even if it was a few grams.”

The first wave of explosions – which occurred from about 3.30pm local time on Tuesday – appear to have been triggered by a special message from Hezbollah leadership, implying, Woodward argued, a specific modification of the pagers’ embedded software. This meant it would trigger an explosion when the appropriate message was sent.

It may have been a default setting on the pagers, but the trigger message came with a cynical twist. Eyewitnesses say the pager bleeped, then paused, then detonated – giving enough time for them to be brought closer to the owner’s face – which is why Lebanese doctors reported treating multiple hand and eye injuries after the blast.

This is how LGBT should be accepted. Proud of Canada for this one.

Congrats to the couple!

Maybe getting a job and affordable housing anywhere would be helpful.

To help a company that’s been banned by the gov’t.

I guarantee you if it had been the American gov’t that banned a site and Cloudflare did this, they’d be called into Congress to answer questions immediately.

Israel’s pretty clearly targeting Hezbollah here, not random Lebanese.

Do you have proof for that statement?

The Mossad planted explosive devices in the walkie-talkies prior to Hezbollah receiving them so …

It shouldn’t be tho. Cloudflare is a single business and no single business should EVER have that kind of power over a gov’t.

It’s Cloudflare’s hubris showing in a very unstrategic way … and I hope Brazil/America/the world calls them on it.

Proof?

That’s a reasonable compromise.

… in your opinion.

The union did not immediately include other details about the polling, including how many members participated. Source

Not everything.

On Feb. 8, Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, chairman of the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, wrote a letter to the leaders of six Class I railroads, urging them to guarantee at least seven paid sick days for all of their workers.

“Last year, the companies you lead made over $22 billion in profits,” Sanders wrote, noting that they had cut 30% of the workforce over the last six years. “Guaranteeing seven paid sick days to rail workers would cost your industry just $321 million.”

Russo is grateful that Sanders stepped in. “We truly compliment his effort to bring dignity to workers in the rail industry,” he said. “Without it, we very likely would not have gotten what we have gained today.”

The NYT says X is bypassing the block using Cloudflare, but if they block Cloudflare it means they block 24 million sites in Brazil. (I find it strange Cloudflare is jumping into this mess.)

Now, those same regulators are trying to figure out how to fight Mr. Musk’s latest workaround.

Technical experts said it would not be simple. X’s new approach relies on Cloudflare, a major internet-infrastructure provider based in San Francisco, to deliver its site in Brazil. Cloudflare helps route traffic for millions of websites, so blocking it in Brazil would have major consequences for internet users across the nation of 200 million.

Think of it as if X’s car was blocked in Brazil and so it just began using Uber to get around — and now regulators are weighing whether to block Uber for everyone in response.

“You can’t just block Cloudflare because you would block half of the internet,” said Basílio Perez, president of Abrint, the trade group for Brazilian internet providers. He said Cloudflare supported more than 24 million websites, including those of the Brazilian government and banks.

But they ARE in the same ballpark tho.

I don’t see the vast difference you do.

Can’t/won’t be led by a black woman (or any woman for that matter).

I worked in a unionized saw mill previously and you have no idea how misogynistic places like that are … still … in the 21st fucking century.

just as Zelenskyy could end the people fleeing Ukraine by accepting a peace deal.

But no bona fide peace deal has been put on the table. Putin’s demands have and that’s it.

So not the same things at all.

… and the more Russians flee, the more they have to do to get labor and troops.

Well technically they don’t ‘have’ to do that, ie: if Putin put his dick back in his pants and shut down the war, Russian citizens wouldn’t be leaving en masse.

Well fuck. :/

That’s fair. Don’t know why you’re getting downvoted for stating the facts tho.
