It's almost as if reality news is converging with Onion news. Each passing year it just gets worse.

This is real? This isn't the Onion?

Striving for peace and equality is reserved for liberal, commie pinkos.

WinRAR was what I used in the 2000s. Around 2011, 7-zip was my goto. I haven't looked back since.

I wasn't aware of pea-zip until this thread

From civillians getting bombed, to this, to soldiers expecting to die as they lay in trenches outside of their cities being burned.

And then you have the civillians inside Russia who are brave enough to protest against the war, but at what cost.

It's depressing.

and requires a kernel level always on spy driver to watch the Chrome process to prevent tampering with it?

That would be one method, yeah. The attester supplies a kernel driver and uses that to generate the auth tokens communicating with it via some protocol or via scanning memory.

The driver is just chilling in the machine, perhaps even evasive to lsmod, such that the only way to detect it is to have your own driver monitoring for some specific signal before the attestor driver gets installed, and then using that signal to track its installation.

There's always a way. But, as you say, with phones it's not as simple.

GrapheneOS or some other ROM on an unlocked Android phone is probably going to be the only way of bypassing it.

Nothing new here.

Same old shit.

They're gonna do what they're gonna do.

There will be ways around it.

Be patient. It takes time to "get going".

If you know how to program, you're in a good spot. If you don't know how to program, start with fundamentals.

SICP is good. It's Lisp. You'll probably never write a line of Lisp professionally, but it will help shape how you reason about solving problems.

Develop some solid fundamentals.

They're important. People found value in the questions or answers she provided on the site.

People who receive backlash/hate are often put in positions where they have to work harder to prove themselves.

Jon Skeet on SO was treated like a God and a meme because his score was so high it reset.

Her using whatever form of merit that we have to demonstrate her skillset is totally valid.

Anyone can learn how to code. What separates the hobbyist from the professional is the amount of time they're willing to put in.

No, it isn't fine.

And no, I don't think I'm "very smart".

but if it starts to be used to censor information and rate humans, that's the line.

That line has already been crossed. Since it's already been crossed, it's inevitable that this will be used in that way.
