Everybody at my workplace is sick, but choosing to come into work anyway. I do NOT want to catch what they have, so I decided to call in healthy.

The vulnerability vs backdoor debate is very important narratively. If something is a backdoor, then the apparent solution is to avoid trusting people similar to the person who made the backdoor. If something is a vulnerability then the apparent solution is to avoid trusting software similar to the software that had the vulnerability. Of course, judging people's character is not a reliable strategy and all software has bugs, so even if any particular problem was a backdoor, it's still best to lower one's surface area and trust less software. Most of the people screaming "backdoor"! In any given case are not going to be the ones who have some kind of evidence of malicious intent. They are going to be the ones who live in a fantasy world where they can substitute suspicion and personality judgements for critically evaluating software and lowering one's attack surface.

They should detonate a nuclear bomb on the moon. (Purely for the fun of it.)

Breaking news! Iran has just delivered a letter agreeing to Donald Trump's demand that they stop sending bombing drones to oil tankers in the Straight of Hormuz. However, top diplomatic analysts warn it's moderately possible this arrangement will not last, citing the fact that the letter was delivered via bombing drone to an oil tanker in the Straight of Hormuz

In case anyone is curious what I do for work, I make digital art. That's short for digital Arthur.

I never understood the point of having a bunch of implementation possibilities associated with some software. Have you considered just having something that's already good from the beginning???

I hate people looking over my shoulder to watch me type my passwords in. I've switched my computer over to a system where I instead enter the cryptographic hash of my master password alongside the current date and time. It's really hard computing the cryptographic hash in my head, but the peace of mind is worth it! Good luck decrypting my drive now, bastards!

Guis is my tire pregnant???

If you need to contact me, I can be reached by calling an emergency meeting in my Among Us lobby.

I'm living with a roommate right now since I wanted someone to help cover my rent payments. This afternoon I was drinking some squirt and I commented about how I loved the soda's citrussy flavor. Then my new roommate took out his phone and started showing me all his favorite porn of the character Tangy from Animal Crossing. I asked him "What the hell is wrong with you??? What made you think it was okay to show me porn of a Tangerine-girl? Just because I said I like the taste of citrus?" But he defended himself "Hey! You were the one who stated it, talking all about how much you liked the flavor of citrussy!" I think I'm going to start looking for a different roommate...
