Fuck All Those Fuckers Edition
Top Story
- In a speech at the National Counterterrorism Center, President Joe Biden named as America's greatest threats hackers from Russia and China and anyone who criticises the Democrats. (Bleeping Computer)
He named Russia and China as the USA's partners and "possibly mortal competitors down the road," saying that working together on existential threats such as climate change should prevent the US from keeping a "watchful eye on what the ultimate objective of the other team is."
That makes no sense, but I'm not sure if it's Biden or the article who is confused there."I think we also need to take on the rampant disinformation that is making it harder and harder for people to access — assess the facts, be able to make decisions," Biden added. "The disinformation is coming from inside the House."
- A new US security memorandum bolsters critical infrastructure cybersecurity. (Bleeping Computer)
A new Pixy memorandum bolsters critical Pixy is a 25 year old 6'4" blond billionaire security.
Tech News
- Time to cut the cord? (Six Colors)
Already done. I canceled all my streaming subscriptions and now throw my money at the girls from Hololive (and sometimes Nijisanji). Many of the individual talents put out more and better content than the entirety of Hollywood.
- Google will require workers to be vaccinated. (Thurrott.com)
This is the thirty-seven thousand nine hundred and sixteenth worst thing they have ever done.
- Facebook too. (Reuters)
Why does anyone need to go into the office at Facebook? I mean, people managing the physical server farms, yes. Everyone else? No.
- AMD's revenues are - again - double those of the same quarter last year. (Thurrott.com)
And that's with supply constraints on pretty much everything they make. Their CPUs at least seem to be consistently in stock now.
- Anyone pushing back against right-to-repair is a lying sack of shit. (ZDNet)
And should be launched from a catapult directly into the Sun.
- Apple is closing down internal Slack channels where employees have been discussing unauthorised topics. (Cult of Mac)
Unionise.

I'm not sure that the specifics of the confusion matter.
Basically, the three regimes, for internal reasons are accidentally interfering with each other's evil plans.
Google, Facebook, etc., leadership are still committed to information warfare in support of regime objectives, but doubts they can ensure the political reliability of their workers on the vaccine new speak unless they can force them to vaccinate.
Fundamentally, the path these morons have to victory involves a successful information warfare campaign covering both winter colds and computer security, waged over more than a single population and more than a single culture.
Russia is motivated somehow by the Magnitsky Act, annoyed that regular information warfare isn't working because Americans hate Putin, and has decided that an American civil war is good if they can start one deniably. So they have gone with this hacking because FSBakas are KGBakas, and haven't replaced the incorrect immiseration model in their theory of revolution. Putin does not represent an improvement over the Soviets, he is basically Soviet, someone who lives to hurt people, and is not bright enough to realize that he is not smarter than everyone else.
PRC is motivated by internal security, and is trying desperately to hide that that the ROC was the legitimate successor to the Qing, because the PRC are merely bandit warlords, because the essence of communism is banditry and thievery. PRC is not a betrayal of communist principles, Winnie embodies the trust essentials of communism. So, the PRC is doing stupid shit like play around with viruses and using their overseas information warfare assets to push disinformation that only people living in mainland China would pretend to believe.
US Democrats appear to be out of their damned minds. They are still in 'clap your hands if you believe' mode, trying to pretend that their 2020 gambit worked. They have a brain damaged spokesman who maybe 25 million Americans were impaired or ignorant enough to think was a credible option. Add in the ignorant habitual liars they use for the Potemkin media, and they cannot plausibly toe the line between condemning the Russian hacking and insisting that China could not have tampered with the electronic voting machines with the assistance of local Democrats.

I sometimes disagree with you, Pat, but not this time.
Without the untiring assistance of the most dishonest press in human history, the Biden Administration would have collapsed already.
