Exactly, nothing that justifies indefinite jailing. Doing a weekend in jail or something would be fair but life in prison for being late is nonsense.

MSOP opened in 1995. For the next 20 years, the program did not release a single person. Almost a hundred people, however, have died inside. Ruby Brewer, a therapist who resigned after three years working at MSOP, told The Appeal that staff sometimes refer to the deaths of the people confined there as “graduations.”

These places are, allegedly, treatment centers but have failed to rehabilitate a single person in 20 years?

They’re not, they’re simply a way to give someone life in prison without calling it that.

I read it as “This is a silly Android thing that I don’t have to deal with because I use custom roms”.

I use Graphene and use this feature, but I can understand why it would seem silly to some people and I can think of use cases where you wouldn’t want it to happen (like using your phone as a security device with Haven (https://github.com/guardianproject/haven)) installed.

Most Android users don’t understand the BFU/AFU states and the security implications, it is good that default android is including a sane security default that’ll be pushed out to the standard Android users.

Welcome to the club :)

Safe gun handling and storage practices ensure that, in the event of an emergency (like a home invasion), authorized people can readily access the weapons that you have stored. Firearms have no value for home defense if they require the owner to be physically present when they’re accessed… home invaders are not going to wait for your mother to drive home and open the gun safe.

This wasn’t a minor child, or some random person breaking into her house to steal firearms. It is perfectly reasonable to store weapons and allow the adults who live in the household to have access to them for emergencies.

The person who is in the wrong here is the man who took weapons into a public place and started shooting.

It is not enough to lock the phone.

An advanced attacker that has access to forensic imaging tools can pull data off of your phone as long as it has been unlocked the first time after boot.

There are some models and some OSs (like Graphene on the newest Pixels) that are safe, for the time being, in AFU mode. You still want to power the phone off if you have the chance.

In your friend’s situation, his phone can be powered, isolated from RF to prevent remote wiping and kept in a lock state in order to preserve the keys in memory until an exploit is found for that model. If the OS automatically reboots after 3 days, it prevents this kind of attack.

You want to do this even with custom roms.

Having your phone automatically go into the BFU state ensures that there’s only a small window for a thief to extract data from your phone.

If you ever think your phone is about to be stolen or seized you want to power it off for this exact reason.

It’s frustrating enough to make you lay colored eggs 🤔

I learned how to make a dual boot machine first.

My friend wanted to get me to install it, but he had a 2nd machine to run Windows on. So we figured out how to dual boot.

And then we learned how to fix windows boot issues 😮‍💨

We mostly did it for the challenge. Those Linux Magazine CDs with new distros and software were a monthly challenge of “How can I install this and also not destroy my ability to play Diablo?”

I definitely have lost at least one install to getting stuck in vim, flailing the keyboard and writing garbage data into a critical config file before rebooting.

Modern Linux is amazing in comparison, you can use it for essentially any task and it still has a capacity for customization that is astonishing.

The early days were interesting if you like getting lost in the terminal and figuring things out without a search engine. Lots of trial and error, finding documentation, reading documentation, etc.

It was interesting, but be glad you have access to modern Linux. There’s more to explore, better documentation, and the capabilities that you can pull in are still astonishing.

The headline is using ‘was’ as a weasel word.

They know it’ll be click bait because it will be read as:

“The weapon used is a weapon that is the service weapon of a deputy”, and not:

“At one point, in the past, the weapon used was a service weapon but isn’t any longer”.

Him using a service weapon implies that there was a lapse of security on his mother’s part. That’s why it’s being mentioned in the way that it is because, if it were true, it would be outrageous.

The fact that an adult Florida man was able to access privately owned firearms isn’t news. But making it seem scandalous by implying that he killed people with a weapon issued as the service weapon of an active duty cop gets clicks.

The shotgun story is based on first hand accounts that I’ve heard from the FSU students that I work with. I’m obviously just a random Internet person, so don’t believe it until you see other sources.

I’ve seen a full on homeless man, with dreadlocks and scruffy blanket (urban Ghillie suit) sitting outside of a Waffle House. The local clubs were letting out and there were gunshots in the parking lot.

Dude stood up and radioed in shots fired and pulled an AR from the bag he was sitting on.

Tons of unmarked cars around campus with lights mounted in the grill and illegally tinted windows.

It’s a heavy security presence that you wouldn’t notice unless you were around it a lot.

That doesn’t mean that people are entitled to invent an alternate reality.

It’s one thing if there was any evidence to the contrary, but to just assume that they’re lying without any evidence is just social media brainrot

It wasn’t as bad as some (2 dead, 6 injured).

He originally started with a shotgun but it jammed without firing a shot. He grabbed a pistol from his vehicle and fired into the bystanders.

Police were on scene quickly (FSU is always crawling with plain clothes officers and unmarked cars) and shot and wounded the shooter.

Oh god, my brain

Never underestimate the power of shenanigans

Of course, but fight them with facts.

Misinformation is in nobody’s best interest.

The recent local mass shooting (FSU) really brings this point home

Childhood memories are trying to unlock 😂

I’ll check My Anonymous mLibrary for you later, OP

Important to point out that it wasn’t her service weapon. An officer allowing their service weapon to be used by others would be an additional serious violation of law.

This was a weapon that she purchased from the Sheriff’s office when they were upgrading gear. It was, at one point, her service weapon but at the time of the shooting it was just a personally owned firearm.

It’s an important distinction since this kind of misinformation implies that she was careless in securing her service weapon.

Her son was an adult and had legal access to a legally owned firearm and chose to kill people. Trying to make it about his mother because she’s a cop is a pointless distraction.
