Droppie [infosec] 🐨
in reddit, sometimes in fedi, i still see peeps who like to think they're hoopy froods, saying nonsensical crap involving "based", eg
- (that's a) based decision
- (you are / it is) so based
humans rooly are doomed 🙄🤦♀️
ah yes, that bloody merkan mangling yet again
I had seen a couple whales in the area
🙄🤦♀️

peeps who use "shutter" as a verb...
have you always been monsters?
🤷♀️🙄🤦♀️
DroppieOne of 1,500 Cold War bunkers found in UK castle, was built to monitor nuclear blastswell this is exciting news; the first documented case of a castle built with exclusive

TardisTech 🤭 1500 bunkers in one castle; amazeballs! so one was for nuke monitoring, were the other 1499 in this castle used for wine cellars perhaps? https://interestingengineering.com/culture/cold-war-nuclear-bunker-found-uk

what, are you four years old? speak like an adult pls.

MG has covered strayan politics for 5000 years give or take, yet still makes basic errors like
& apparently no sub-editor bothered to notice either.

on the general thrust of her article, i just shake my head in despair & ask again, #whythefuckislabor ?
journo spends entire essay whingeing about the ai-enshitification of social media, without once addressing actual social media, talking only about cesspit media
we are surrounded & overrun by abject pig-ignorance

oh dear. once again, in the eternal battle of MSM & pollies vs facts & science, the former win, ergo further stupidifying & cretinising #TheGreatUnwashed. Sigh.

yep, sure, it sounds bad, doesn't it, coz "ooooh, 'negative'; that's bad & scary, innit!"
well, nope. the term has been purloined in complete ignorance from control engineering. in fact, negative feedback loops are the desirable arrangement, whereas the term the dopey pollie & journo should have used, is "positive feedback loop". but ofc they're not gonna do that, are they, coz "ooooh, 'positive'; that's all light & fluffy & good & wholesome & unicornie, innit!
no, you ignoramuses...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_feedbackNegative feedback (or balancing feedback) occurs when some function of the output of a system, process, or mechanism is fed back in a manner that tends to reduce the fluctuations in the output, whether caused by changes in the input or by other disturbances.
Whereas positive feedback tends to instability via exponential growth, oscillation or chaotic behaviour, negative feedback generally promotes stability. Negative feedback tends to promote a settling to equilibrium, and reduces the effects of perturbations. Negative feedback loops in which just the right amount of correction is applied with optimum timing, can be very stable, accurate, and responsive.
Negative feedback is widely used in mechanical and electronic engineering, and it is observed in many other fields including biology,[1][2] chemistry and economics. General negative feedback systems are studied in control systems engineering.
Negative feedback loops also play an integral role in maintaining the atmospheric balance in various climate systems on Earth. One such feedback system is the interaction between solar radiation, cloud cover, and planet temperature. sigh, get orf my bloody lawn!

Moderates despair as the Liberals enter a ‘death spiral’ egged on by Murdoch
Matt Kean, the former Liberal powerbroker and New South Wales state treasurer, despairs at the state of his party. “If people aren’t voting Liberal on economic grounds,” he asks, “then what’s the point of us?” Kean, who now chairs the Climate Change Authority, is referring to the authoritative Australian Election Study, released this week, which found for the first time that voters trust Labor more than the Coalition on economic management.
late last night finally got around to ordering a new USB stick [256 GB]. just now received thank you email from vendor, which assaulted my sensibilities with the repugnant merkanism
Hey Droppieinstead of the properG'day Droppieor even, at a pinchHi Droppieipso facto this vendor is now #D2M, & will receive no further orders for me, in this & most future existence-times#WriteGooder #fuckmerkanmangling #fuckmerkanculturalimperialism
'Loved by everyone': Shark attack victim remembered as community 'keystone'JFC, MSM journos remain rhetorically pathetic. Just for once i'd like to see one of these saccharine reports written in a different style, after someone's death by shark, car, health, space-junk...'Loathed by everyone': Shark attack victim remembered as complete arsehole, a stain on society, a festeringly pointless waste of space. "Personally my only regret is that this turd wasn't ripped to shreds years ago", giggled ecstatic wife. "The only way this could have been better was if the gobbling had happened on the mongrel's birthday, or xma$, or anniversary, or..". #WriteGooder
