Ya it's almost like consistently committing to and conducting operations to murder your neighbors for 20 years will lead them to engage in ways to mitigate those deaths.

Has the ever been a war where one side was expected to fund the other side's government and military?

RCP has Harris at a 1.8% favorite in its polling average. At the beginning of this month Trump was winning in these polls (granted partially because of Biden's degraded mental state). So opinions could legitimately change.

Additionally, Kennedy is still at 4.5%, and generally 3rd parties support degrades the closer to the election it gets. It's difficult to say where that support will degrade to. If Trump's support falls to 1% and Trump takes 3% of that support, he'll be ahead in the polls.

Finally, all the national polls have a margin of error between 2-3%. It's just as possible that Harris is up by 4.8% as it is that she's down by 3.8%.

So the chance of Harris losing the popular vote is significant.

Literally convenience. Before ads it was just easier to stream the shows.

Bibi has gone in and out of power as leader of a major coalition. Putin has been a dictator since I was in middle school.

Not really equivalent beasts.

Hamas is doing more damage to Israel than has been done in generations, just of a diplomatic sort.

People believe that?

They only bring those policies out when they're not in power

If your support is never on the table, your support doesn't matter.

I actually consider pirating movies I have the rights to stream just to cut down on advertisements.

So your saying Sanders has an anti-government ideology? To say another way, Sanders want to maximize the amount of dismissed problems in the government?

No. What about what I said makes you think that? Sander's intent is pro-government and pro-grovernment control of healthcare along with a wide range of other economic and social industries. Just because the effect of his actions makes us less likely to want government control of healthcare doesn't mean that was the intent of his action.

I haven’t heard or seen anything from Bernie that indicates he is authoritarian.

Except for the one time that he was given power over a system and expressed authoritarian tendencies?

The Politics of Religion (news.gallup.com)
 

Everything else being equal, the more religious the individual in the U.S. today, the higher the probability that the individual identifies with or leans toward the Republican party. I called this the “R and R rule” in my 2012 book on religion, found the phenomenon alive and well in my 2014 review of Gallup data, and now, nine years later, Gallup’s data confirm that this religiosity gap is more evident than ever.

Americans’ political identity is a powerful correlate of a wide range of Americans’ attitudes and behaviors, including, in particular, a wide range of attitudes about hot-button political and social issues. And we know that political identity is related to views of the national economy, views of the nation’s institutions, happiness, perceptions of the nation’s most important problems, and a variety of other measures. It is thus not surprising that political identity would also be related to religion.

Mobile Application Security Cheat Sheet

Mobile application development presents certain security challenges that are unique compared to web applications and other forms of software. This cheat sheet provides guidance on security considerations for mobile app development. It is not a comprehensive guide by any means, but rather a starting point for developers to consider security in their mobile app development.

MySQL 5.7 Extended Support from Oracle ends in October 2023 (source 1, source 2). For those of you that initially selected MySQL to retain some degree of vendor neutrality and affinity towards open source, the Oracle track of migration to MySQL 8.0 and on to Oracle Heatwave and Oracle Cloud may not suit you, and you may want to consider a switch to MariaDB Server. Obviously, not all migrations are the same level of effort. Thanks to compatibility with MySQL protocols, it’s easy to make the switch to MariaDB Server and gain the added benefits of Oracle compatibility features, open source columnar storage and enhanced features such as MaxScale database proxy, advanced audit capabilities, and temporal tables.

This blog walks you through how to do an in-place migration from MySQL 5.7.43 to MariaDB Server 10.6.14. The commands and instructions shown work for any version of MariaDB Server 10.6.14 and greater, and work for both MariaDB Community Server and MariaDB Enterprise Server. It will give you some general pointers on how to perform a database migration project and two options for migrating tables with partitions. Plus, it goes through upgrading an environment that has database replication running.

The MariaDB Foundation is pleased to announce the availability of MariaDB 11.2.1, the first Release Candidate in the MariaDB 11.2 series, and MariaDB 11.1.2, the first stable release in the MariaDB 11.1 series. Both are short-term series and will be maintained for one year after their respective G.A (stable) releases.

The Arizona legislature last year passed a law (H.B. 2319 codified at A.R.S. § 13-3732) banning the video recording of police activity within eight feet of officers, making doing so a class 3 misdemeanor (which would allow for up to 30 days in jail). The law included some exceptions, such as for “a person who is the subject of police contact.”

A coalition of news organizations and the ACLU of Arizona sued state and county government officials in federal court arguing that the law was unconstitutional. EFF filed an amicus brief in support of the plaintiffs in the district court.

We are happy to report that the court in the case, Arizona Broadcasters Association v. Mayes, recently entered a stipulated permanent injunction in favor of the plaintiffs, pursuant to a settlement between the parties. The order prevents Arizona government officials from enforcing the law.

Story Highlights

  • Public confidence in the U.S. military continues to decline
  • Drops seen across party groups, but Republicans remain most confident
  • Independents least likely to express confidence this year

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Americans are now less likely to express “a great deal” or “quite a lot” of confidence in the U.S. military, with a noticeable decline that has persisted for the past five years. The latest numbers are from a June 1-22 Gallup poll that also captured record lows in public confidence in several public institutions.

We all deserve privacy in our communications, and part of that is trusting that the government will only access them within the limits of the law. But at this point, it’s crystal clear that the FBI doesn’t believe that either our rights nor the limitations that Congress has placed upon the bureau matter when it comes to the vast amount of information about us collected under FISA Section 702.

The latest exhibit in this is in yet another newly declassified opinion of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC). This opinion further reiterates what we already know, that the Federal Bureau of Investigation simply cannot be trusted with conducting foreign intelligence queries on American persons. Regardless of the rules, or consistent FISC disapprovals, the FBI continues to act in a way that shows no regard for privacy and civil liberties.

According to the declassified FISC ruling, despite paper reforms which the FBI has touted that it put into place to respond to the last time it was caught violating U.S. law, the Bureau conducted four queries for the communications of a state senator and a U.S. senator. And they did so without even meeting their own already-inadequate standards for these kinds of searches.

How many times will the FBI get caught with their hand in the cookie jar of our constitutionally protected private communications without losing these invasive and unconstitutional powers?

If you’d been quietly chasing down cryptographic bugs in a proprietary police radio system since 2021, but you’d had to wait until the second half of 2023 to go public with your research, how would you deal with the reveal?

You’d probably do what researchers at boutique Dutch cybersecurity consultancy Midnight Blue did: line up a world tour of conference appearances in the US, Germany and Denmark (Black Hat, Usenix, DEF CON, CCC and ISC), and turn your findings into a BWAIN.

The word BWAIN, if you haven’t seen it before, is our very own jocular acronym that’s short for Bug With An Impressive Name, typically with its own logo, PR-friendly website and custom domain name.

(One notorious BWAIN, named after a legendary musical instrument, Orpheus’s Lyre, even had a theme tune, albeit played on a ukulele.) 24/7 threat hunting, detection, and response delivered by an expert team as a fully-managed service. Learn More Introducing TETRA:BURST
