The issue I have with studies is that much of the funding and research is specifically toward reproducing leftist ideology and promoting itself.
Yup, agreed. They put the cart before the horse and the study concludes that buggies should be illegal.
Have you ever provided them a study done by a right leaning source? I agree with most of your comment, but they refuse to accept studies unless they agree with the presentation, metrics collected, and authors of the study. It's not really even a right or left thing, it's a challenging preconceived perceptions thing. The right does it as well, but most of us are crumudgeon enough to call bullshit when we see it.
Most of the time they use that statement not to ask for verification but to try to funnel you through the academic lens, which they know is compromised by academic leftist group think. It's one of the ways the left argues from authority rather than principle.
Hawaiipede here. Paddle out.
Anarchy is literally self-governance without monarchs, you can't really get more liberty than that. If anything, they seek too much liberty and are unable to understand that nature abhors a power vacuum. Most ancaps are just going through a phase, in which they go through the motions till they realize it's an untenable philosophy. After that they typically wind up libertarian.
communities.win is just about my favorite place online now. It's small, the people there agree politically so there's rarely any political fighting, and it just generally feels like plebbit did in the very long long ago. It's just comfy, and mostly wholesome.
The problem is that the CFAA is pretty broad, and just hitting APIs without permission to look for potentially problematic holes could net you jail time. And it has in the past.
Yup, weev got sent away for enumerating an endpoint only.
I'm not going to argue with you, and I hope what you're saying is true to it's fullest extent. I hope you left no crumbs, and wound up with plebbit 0day. However, again, I'm no longer interested in worrying about leaving crumbs myself, so I only work under explicit permission or within my own networks. I'm not going to play high and mighty, as I used to do similar shit, but when I say staying clean has drastically improved my ability to sleep at night, know I mean those words.
Kek.
