"Mad at the Internet" - a/k/a My Psychotherapy Sessions

So, that Tea app where women were anonymously leaving ratings on guys just had a huge security flaw that dropped a big cache of its userdata apparently bc it was coded by brazilians, the people on 4chan are doing about what you would expect

Not going to post any of the faces, but a bunch are there in that thread on xitter, apparently they used to use ID verification so they just dumped thousands of IDs out there including people who work in the government using their government ID to verify with, which is just nuts.

It's not going well


In a way, I guess there's a layer of irony to the whole situation

Here's the interest rate article:

I get that @Null spases out when he sees a brownie, but it's not the brownie saying that interest rate cutting is not a simple solution. It's a guy name Reich, which I'm sure Null would appreciate (don't look at early life).
The racism bit was more funny when it wasn't just imagining what an article was about. And it's not even some silly ideas, a rumor of Trump fucking around with this fucked with the market.

The thesis of article is wrong. Reducing rates reduces costs.

watching the new MATI and I'm at the gas can segment. I have been informed that the best ones to buy are made by a company called VP racing, and they are not called gas cans for legal reasons, but they are designed to hold fuel. They are plastic, but they are $40-50 for a 5 gallon container instead of >$100 for the metal ones, and they are also made in the US.

Picture for reference.
Also, I take offense with Josh's "Aluminium" Jerry Cans, proper Jerry Cans are made of US made Steel. Or German I guess.

I wonder if there are other economic factors involved here that could influence cost, and are written down in the article.

Surely not, brownie bad, only 1 thing ever affected cost, don't worry about the explanation and just get mad at the title!

Are the archivers still alive? I'm going into sneed withdrawals waiting.

Anyway. Man taking pictures of your government id for an app is insane. The fact these people were willing to do that. I really can't feel bad for them.

You can buy wavian, vevor or midwest cans at Harbor Freight, they make adaptors with spouts and funnels that thread onto the cans, too. Just get a standard diameter mouth one so your attachments are interchangeable. If you buy surplus ones that are metal you can take surface oxidation off with white vinegar and sandpaper/steel wool, then just repaint it with a metal enamel paint. You won't get the oxidation if you keep it in a low humidity environment, and you can add fuel stabilizer or other additives and label your fuels if you buy different octanes.

Finally made it to the superchats. Josh should think about an auto-loader for URLs from approved sources so they load in the background and are ready to go when he gets to them and then can just preview and play if acceptable, maybe yt-dlp + plain old wget.

or you can buy plastic and not have to worry about oxidation. they don't get dryrotten and shitty either so long as they're kept out of the sun and not abused
