"No real brains on board" describes more than 70% of the people I am forced, by convention, to interact with
Mon Jan 11 2021 06:21:09 PM EST from Nurb432That would be my assumption. Basically a cloud terminal. No real brains on board.

I know that at one DefCon, they discussed how easy it is to hack Crossing Light systems of a particular sort - that are widely deployed in Phoenix.
I'm picturing a take of 'intel inside' 'brain inside'

When I worked at the Folsom campus, out at the smoking area I took a stone and carved an "Anarchy Inside" logo onto the backpad concrete. Someone sent me a picture years later, and it was still there.
As far as I know, I'm the only person who has successfully done graffiti on an Intel campus.

Now that flash is dead....
What was the name of that website that was a repeating animation of where the subject was all powerful, all knowing
I don't remember if it was "I am xxxxxx" or "This is xxxxxx" zeeboo or something.
Every time I remember I am not near a computer to look at the site again.
The site still works. They updated it to not use Flash. The spinner looks a little different.
Yes, that was it. I thought it began with a Z, and Mombo kept entering my mind, but I didn't put the two together. That is good that it still exists, it is important for the new generation.
I don't have a Reddit account and I rarely visit. The other day in a YouTube channel that I revisited someone said there is a Reddit thread on the channel's videos. I visited Reddit to look around. I did this several times. Something I noticed while the page was idle was that the number of up votes and the comment count numbers seem to rise. This is odd because no matter what topic you scroll down to the numbers rise. If you click on the topic the number of likes do not match the numbers on the landing page. You scroll through the messages and they are old messages. You just watched the message count increase, yet the messages are all several days old. If you leave reddit, return at a later time, the numbers are back down and start increasing again.
What the fuck is the point of doing this?
Reddit, like El Goog, follows the new math. Sometimes two plus two is four. But sometimes it's three, or five.
Inaccurate numbers? I'd rather have no numbers at all.

I don't have a Reddit account and I rarely visit. The other day
I was in Reddit only for visiting a sub that was, let's say, socially unaceptable. When it was forcefully closed, I simply ceased to log in.
Then they made Javascript mandatory so I would not bother to browse their threads as a guest at all anymore. Before that, if I was duckduckgoing for some piece of info and Reddit had a thread about it, I would check it, but not now.
What is the point of having a script that falsely increases the number of up votes or comment counts?
To gaslight you into no longer caring about pesky things like facts and numbers, and to get you to quit believing your lying eyes.
This. The things that get buried and promoted in the "Libertarian" threads makes it obvious the numbers aren't right.
People attacking cops and burning down Seattle? Libertarians!
People attacking cops and threatening the Senate? "Dangerous insurgents attempting a rebellion and threatening the sacred institutions of the US Democracy!"

It is a trick. They're another "Front Page of the Internet" site that uses "user weighting" to create top articles and bury bottom ones.
But it is all rigged, and all biased.
It is a cesspool.

It probably counted as that back in the day.
It certainly was a great place where you could talk about the really dark stuff in your life that you could not discus elsewhere.
As anything popular, it was moron ridden, but overall they had it very well managed. Until they yielded to pressure and turned it into useless trash.
Just browsed Reddit using lynx, but did use the old.reddit.com hostname. Seems to work without JavaScript (for reading at least) not sure about posting.
I read r/syadmin and mainly to watch for people stubbing their toes on the monthly updates as it gets stickied every month and is a good first check on botched MS updates. Not so much on reading other stuff on Reddit, but the counts of posts seem to match on threads on that subreddit.
