…exactly the kind that discourages 60-something, non-technical family members.

Nah - you’re complaining that you “were forced into handing your password to someone else” when there were at least six ways you could have avoided that:

  • you gone to the computer,
  • they send the computer to you,
  • you remote in to the computer,
  • you tell them “suck it, you should have blocked iCloud sign-in with MDM” or, as others mentioned,
  • you sign out before handing the computer back or, my favourite,
  • don’t sign in to personal accounts on work devices even if they bug you to.

Finally, we release devices like this all the time through our ABM account. It takes 5 days maximum. Your IT team led you up the garden path.

You couldn’t remote in to type in your password?

There are a couple of studies that show less PTSD in drone pilots but there’s only a few. One interesting take is the moral gap (see here) where killing people from home potentially makes far less normal home lives (predictably).

Still have to explain them.

It’s kinda funny that, like Russia, this invasion is just showing how a an ‘elite’, ‘gold-standard’, ‘most-moral’ military in the world is simply incompetent at actually running a war.

Given individual missions, soldiers can shoot their way in and out but they can’t handle communication between units.

I have to imagine the groups coordinating the safe passage of aid trucks are either shitting all over the missile teams in the post-op briefings or filled with absolute dumbasses.

Just fyi, it’s “incumbent”

Between 20 and 30 officers and soldiers are implicated…

Pretty sensationalist headline.

They are only clean and have GPS or even apps since Uber. Before they had competition, only premium cabs were vaguely healthy to use.

Surely 80-90% of Daniel’s job is teaching languages to the other teams. Especially after Children of the Gods when they discover that the whole network is run by the Goa’uld/Jaffa.
