I don’t think people realize how dangerous CR is 👍🏿
[WATCH] President Cyril Ramaphosa says municipalities will no longer have an automatic right to provide water and electricity. Instead, a compulsory licensing system will be introduced, with revenues from utility sales ring-fenced for infrastructure maintenance. He addressed the local government white paper launch today.

Wow that's wild I wonder how there were so many vulnerabilities. Did something change in the last few years about how people do code or something? Did big companies get rid of half their coders and stop hiring more? Idk man it's a mystery we'll never solve
This is the most serious 48 hours in cybersecurity history.

The timing of this, just ahead of elections in Israel and the US, is not ideal

I don’t think “no one is owed forgiveness” and “people are capable of change” are mutually exclusive statements

Cyril must've sold us for big money, man 😂✋🏾. This is masked as an infrastructure first and capability measure exercise, but once you're unable to meet requirements and/or perform, it opens up the door for private providers.
We're so screwed and I'm tired of being angry.

I always think its odd that the focus was only online violence and not also transphobic violence.
One of the killers had explicit transphobic motivation.

Journalism has reduced itself to parroting, summarising and amplifying. Little to no criticism, critical editorial, investigative reporting, probing and analysis 💔

Turns out that using a no AI hashtag attracts bots, pro-AI discourse, spam and not at all the cozy attitude we try to have in our socials. So, we locked the replies.
We take pride in human-made work, OUR work. Defending it against pro-AI users is just not worth our time.
This is what a handcrafted game with no AI looks like ✨

President is a pedophile who tortures migrants and starves poor people and all these idiots care about is gas prices.
Q: You voted for Trump all 3 times?
Michigan voter: I did vote for Trump. Little disillusioned these days. I'll put it this way. I've got a Grand Cherokee and I never had to pay $100 to fill it up until last week. A lot of overpromising and underperforming by Trump.
