TBH, 98% of security problems in the Python ecosystem boil down to mission critical projects using old versions of libraries or straight up unmaintained libraries, where the library in question is 100+ megabytes of who knows what, but the project only imports one function, the utility of which the devs could have recreated themselves in 15 minutes without needing to use the library, especially lately when everyone just imports what the AI tells them to import.

Montgomery Scott, Geordi La Forge, T'pol, Jean Luc Picard, Jadzia Dax, Julian Bashier, Beverly Crusher, Trip Tucker.

Is there actually any biologic mechanism to generat and conduct electricity at a high enough voltage and current that it can ionize air over a distance as large as that (looks like at least 1/2m) without damaging the actual animal doing it?

Midichlorians. The ability to cause an extinction level event is insignificant next to the power of the Force.

They have to afford that avocado toast.

I think it would depend on how much attention it gets. Given that both MAGA and Progressives want this out there (although I bet MAGA won't like or believe what they see if it DOES come out), it could be dangerous for ANYONE to vote against it, and interesting to see who does.

My guess is

• Centrist media tries to cover it as little as possible and everyone hopes the story goes away. (Hopefully Elon's antics and both progressive and red cap media make this difficult to the point of absurdity)
• Congress (Mike Johnson) tries to quietly shut it down in way that's not obvious why nothing ever happened and the doofuses on the right don't understand who's responsible (somehow blame Biden). We need to keep telling them "Your boy Mike kept the vote from happening. Why?"
• If Congress IS forced against the will of the establishment to vote on it, they'll try to make it as procedurally confusing as possible, or make noises about how they are going to vote on it, but not for a while and then they just never do.
• If it passes in spite of all that, Trump won't comply and no one will hold him accountable and MAGA probably eventually WILL move on to other conspiracy bullshit and this will get left in the dust.

It's infuriating that the ignorance and stupidity of a huge chunk of the country is what keeps enabling these bastards.

And I went to Venus, to get more...

Their explanation for why it can't be on Android is that the nature of Android push notifications is such that they (the developers) would need to maintain a database of device IDs that could be tied back to physical devices and potentially be used to deanonymize which users received which alerts.

To me, this sounds lazy and like something that could be mitigated with End-To-End encryption.

The cruelty is the point.

This, potentially.

Except Bezos is known to be a reptile.
