Add some pontoons and call it a day.

English version is Found On Road Dead.

Not just for good PR - they are also using creative accounting to claim “green” initiatives (and the incentives/tax reductions that come with them) without actually doing anything beneficial to the environment. Fucking leeches…

In other words: “If we can’t lie to people about our environmental efforts then we’re not even going to try to lie.”

Rural Ontario always votes conservative.

Mike Morrice is also still in the fight.

What a mess of a title. Here, let me rearrange it:

14 years ago a 3 week old baby received a heart transplant and gained a ‘donor mom’

Yeah, and it sucks that plants can be patented. Monsanto in particular can go die in a fire.

NAL, but as it was explained to me by a lawyer: Part of a patent remaining valid is demonstrating that they put consistent effort into enforcing it. Nintendo not having filed suit against the other companies (if the games are indeed found to be violating the same patent) lays groundwork for invalidation. This is for example the reason Pepsico sued farmers in India for cultivating their patented potato - not because it would harm their business, but because it would harm the validity of their patent if they didn’t.

Facebook should be fined for election interference.

Just like you cannot vote for your country’s submission in Eurovision, you cannot vote for your instance’s submission in Lemmyvision. So if you picked lemmy.ca as your instance then the voting form should be excluding our three submissions.

Trackball gang! There’s dozens of us. Dozens!

I feel like Constant Panic 24 is more like Fox “News”, but yeah daytime CTV is not far behind.

For now. Let’s not get complacent.

Not giving the cons a federal government is the better of the long term strategies. We know the Conservatives want to emulate what’s going on south of the border, and since I want to keep funding public services I’m going to swallow my pride and vote accordingly. Yes, an NDP win would be welcome, but I’ll settle for a PC loss.

Strategic voting is still totally a plausible thing in my riding. Conservatives are consistently at 40% or so voter count, so I either vote for the liberal candidate that has been able to beat the cons by 1%, or I split the vote and hand the cons another riding.

I don’t know where you got the idea that I’m arguing that old versions don’t get new vulnerabilities. I’m saying that just because a CVE exists it does not necessarily make a system immediately vulnerable, because many CVEs rely on theoretical scenarios or specific attack vectors that are not exploitable in a hardened system or that have limited impact.

The fact that you think it’s not possible means that you’re not familiar with CVSS scores, which every CVE includes and which are widely used in regulated fields.

And if you think that always updating to the latest version keeps you safe then you’ve forgotten about the recent xz backdoor.

Just because it has a CVE number doesn’t mean it’s exploitable. Of the 800 CVEs, which ones are in the KEV catalogue? What are the attack vectors? What mitigations are available?
