The Century of Self - documentary by Adam Curtis
The Century of Self, by Adam Curtis, discusses the emergence and rise of psychoanalysis as a pivotal means of persuasion for corporations and governments. It covers the work of psychoanalysts Sigmund Freud and Anna Freud, as well as PR consultant Edward Bernays. The series reveals how those in positions of power have used Freud’s theories to influence and control the public.

It’s literally the end of thirties.
There are many exits, some clearly marked, others less so, but none of them lead anywhere.
I think that change only comes through a big, imaginative idea
This seems overly optimistic to me. I think the historical record demonstrates that broad sociocultural change primarily happens after some great destructive crisis (war, famine, plague, etc) during which the status quo breaks down and a lot of people die, and the survivors have to pick up the remains and try to patch some form of society back together like a jigsaw puzzle where half the pieces have been burned in a fire.
Sometimes, the survivors get together and try to imagine a better future, saying to themselves, “we don’t want our children to have to go through what we just went through.” More often, the person or people with the most resources left after the crisis take control, attempt to form society such that it sustains and increases their current power, and repeat the same old cycles of exploitation and selfishness.
11·8 days agoOnly one claims ownership of the land where TSMC is based, and threatens to conduct a military invasion to enforce that claim.
The US’ interest is in maintaining the status quo for Taiwan - independence. The US has not attempted to dictate trade relationships for Taiwan or threatened to take military control of their country.
The most immediate question is probably, how long can your country remain functional without TSMC?

What Is MAS?
MAS (Microsoft Activation Scripts) is a fully open-source Windows and Office activation tool distributed as batch scripts. It implements multiple activation methods that operate against Microsoft’s software licensing subsystem (SPP / OSPP / CLIP) to activate Windows and Office without a purchased product key.

Hmm, there are some products that should have a defined “end of life”. For instance, computer networking hardware which will eventually be outdated and no longer get security updates. The trick is, the EOL date should be clearly marked on the product at the point of sale so that the buyer can make an informed decision.
This is built-in obsolescence, but it’s better than the current situation where Cisco will sell you a firewall at full price and then decide 6 months later that they aren’t supporting that model anymore and you have to buy a new one.
but… but… that’s what the man is for… that’s all the man knows how to do…
If you’ve ever heard the phrase “drinking the Kool-aid” it’s a reference to this incident: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonestown
Hmm… is the giraffe centaur an obligate herbivore?
I… what the fuck am I looking at… ?
Please draw a diagram of this creature’s digestive system for me. Also their spinal structure.
If this is true:
That means there’s a software switch that dumps a plaintext copy of a supposedly encrypted message when flipped.
Therefore, all you need to read any WhatsApp message is the ability to flag the message as “reported”, and access to wherever the plaintext copies get sent.
Considering how often security is an afterthought for corporations, the access part is probably easy.
