TIL that you can prevent a process from being killed by calling NtUserSendInput at just the right time. At this point I've got to ask if we're comfortable admitting that this whole protection mode business may have been a mistake (especially considering that Ring 1 and 2 are unused these days).

You know shit got real when the LLM uses the term "BS" without being prompted to.

Still thinking about that discussion that terminated with them talking about "clean code". The more I think about it the more I'm convinced they had no idea what they were talking about themselves. I mean, what is "clean code" in the first place? Is "clean code" using fopen instead of NtCreateFile?

Does anyone else get filtered by phone verifications? Like, I don't *have* a mobile number, and even *if* I had I wouldn't share it with you. Like, go fuck yourself with a cactus, and stay fucked forever and ever.

Privately, many Senate Democrats conceded that their leader was doing his job by protecting his members from a tough vote and making a politically painful decision. But the backlash from his party was...

If you're feeling down about the recent stock market crash, just think about what Chinese billionaires who hid their money in the US economy are going through. The idea of rule of law was exactly why those billionaires came in the first place.

Here's the bush everyone keeps beating around:
Only the House or a bullet can remove the asset from office, and the House won't do it for another two years. That's plenty of time for the asset to do whatever the hell it wants to do, like, say, amend the constitution to get rid of impeachment.

The current US constitution is like an old 8086 processor: no protection against rogue or faulty programs/administration. Without upgrade (like the 80286, which had four protection rings) you will always rely on the goodwill of your programs/presidents.

I for one am hopeful that the asset defies more court orders, because then we can actually call it a tyrant: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyrant
"A tyrant [...] in the modern English usage of the word is an absolute ruler who is unrestrained by law"
And we all know what Jefferson had to saw about tyrants.

So the asset wants to end the legal status for 240,000 Ukrainian refugees. Just end whatever lives they've built up there.
Is that a good time to do a "SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED" LARP?

I can't wait for the asset to attempt to tell the Europeans not to build up their nuclear arsenal, on behest of the Russians. Then again the Europeans are so dumb and easily intimidated that the asset might actually be successful at it.

I already see Europe and Canada eyeing each other for trade relations, but why forget about Mexico? They have developed a lot in the last thirty years and would certainly be worth the effort.

Just once I'd like to see nations not falling over themselves to appease whatever brainworm the US government is being affected by. It'd be really interesting to see how much GDP is actually adding value, and how much is just money laundering.

Trump: Ukraine has to work towards peace.
Ukraine: we could do a ceasefire for starters.
Russia: we don't want a ceasefire.

So you take away all vector registers because the compiler can't produce proper code for beans, and as a result GCC croaks when encoding a VMOVD: godbolt.org/z/PT3n9Gc6E
Yeah, sorry, but I don't have the years necessary to wait for any of your fixes.

I cannot help but admire Trump's ... guts, or dementia, or narcissism, or whatever it is that makes him go out and paint a bright red target on his face. The man already almost got Kennedy'd in front of a live audience, yet he acts as if his nemeses won't be fully pardoned.

Since the tariffs are now in effect I wonder why Canada doesn't just purchase all the fentanyl they can get their hands on and ship it off to the US. Gotta make up for the deficit somehow.

It honors Zelensky that he's willing to swallow his pride and placate Trump, but his efforts are wasted. The president is ideologically aligned not only with Putin, but with dictatorships in general. His only interest in Ukraine are its natural resources and how to get them for himself.

Can someone explain to me how anyone expects Ukraine to not start working on nuclear devices now? If your conventional capabilities will last you six months, and Europe won't get its arse in gear, what do they have to lose? In fact I would've already done so ever since Trump's election.
