Systemd merged age verification to comply with California state law. If you want to enter a birth date, I recommend "Friday, 13 December 1901 20:45:52". I like this for a few reasons: 1. This is the earliest date possible for a 32 bit datetime integer in C. 2. It's malicious compliance. 3. It's obviously faked. https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/40954 #linux

Taking a few seconds to entertain myself by reporting emails from campus police as phishing. The university does phishing tests, encouraging everyone to examine where links lead before clicking them, and telling us to never trust a link we don't recognize. University cops, I think, are using some kind of external email distribution service, which has a link to acknowledge receipt of the police email. The email is within hours of announcements about a campus situation (vague "individual in custody" thing).

I suppose it's possible IT is capitalizing on the situation to really seriously test our phishing savvy. I kind of hope not. I hope it's the cops using an unverified email distribution and tracking service that is almost certainly stealing some data from every click, and that I'm calling attention to how shitty this is by reporting all these emails as phishing.

@dalias If there is an audit trail, it would not shock me if it is being watched with the same intelligence and diligence as the leadership who would impose a requirement to use #GenAI. (That is, none.)

If the boss is dumb enough to make that rule, they are dumb enough to miss a subordinate sidestepping the rule.

More powerful actions than people might assume :)

The declassified "Simple Sabotage field manual" generously hosted by the CIA https://www.cia.gov/static/5c875f3ec660e092cf893f60b4a288df/SimpleSabotage.pdf
Is a delightful read on malicious (or incompetent) compliance.

For the Americans who might not understand, cheques are not really a thing in most of Europe and have not been in a very long time, even less so in a foreign currency.

This is just so Amazon can say, "We tried, it is not our fault those communist Europeans do not take our Freedom money" to the FTC.

They never had any intention of paying anyone in Europe, hence #MaliciousCompliance
