  • People with no game blame “society” for “training” women to act as if sex is something to be withheld, thereby creating an economy where women don’t need to put in effort to get laid, thereby creating situations where shitty men blame women for their own failures, where in reality if you touch grass, wear deodorant, and have a shred of empathy there is no shortage of people you can meet that will gladly fuck you even though you’re fat and ugly.

    But I know you know this and are simply being Socratic, so carry on!


  • Do you know what a memory stack and assembly are?

    If you want code that does assembly operations A, B, and then C, you might be able to accomplish it by scanning loaded memory (or its corresponding binary) for bits that, when translated into assembly, do:

    A

    D

    return

    This set of three instructions is a gadget. In practice, it’s a location in memory.

    And then you find another gadget.

    B

    C

    return

    Then, if you don’t care about D, or D does something irrelevant that won’t screw up what you’re trying to do, or won’t crash the program, you can replace the stack with the addresses of gadgets one and two. When gadget one returns, the stack is popped and then gadget two executes.

    Since the computer did ADBC and D was irrelevant, the system executed your ABC malware and now you win.

    Is finding gadgets that execute actual malware hard? Surprisingly not!

    Declining the customer’s reasonable request disproportionately affects them. The corporation is a big boy too, and can eat whatever associated cost of accommodating (paying the customer off, resetting the “clock” the pilot is on by opening the door). In some cases, there’s no impact to any other customer (such as making up the lost time once you’re in the air and can cruise faster). These random occurrences are built into the price. If it happens too often then the corporation needs to track their own data better and not issue tickets with unreasonably timed or otherwise risky connections, because to not do so will enable their competitors to one-up them. Free market, amirite?







  • It’s just buying the dip. The crazy part is that despite how rich they are, they still need to do it. At a certain level of wealth, you have infinite money for a certain level of lifestyle. So even though they’re crazy rich, they are still living beyond their means, and in order to maintain that lifestyle for future generations, then need to cause economic crashes and buy the dip. Wild shit.




  • It’s not actually that simple.

    The difference between boycotting vs “just not eating there” is that the former is a loud movement, instead of a simple quiet preference that the free market will take care of itself.

    Kevin is implying that people who don’t band together to actively fight wrongdoing are somehow superior. However what he’s really advocating for is divide and conquer in order to maintain the status quo.

    Steve is usually funny and correct, but this time in doing so has missed a greater, more important, point.
