wtf Temu's email unsubscribe link goes to a webpage that says your WiFi is disconnected Image
Here's the link, stripped of my identifying information. If you click unsubscribe on Temu the website says your WiFi is disconnected. Over HTTPS.
temu.com/bgms_unsubscri…
Image
It appears Temu's latest email has an unsubscribe link that works, but for whatever reason this old one is saying your WiFi is disconnected how would you even code that
This was a known problem until some time in the last year.
The most rational explanation for this is Temu is using a Javascript framework that also expects to be run offline (it's localized in multiple languages), they are querying some dead resource that shows this naive lazy error, and never redirected the page. Explains everything.
Update:
Sweet googly moogly I made Temu fix their website

I have to be careful with my platform, but the latest experimental GLP-1 "Retatrutide" has seemingly addressed an underlying deficit that is resolving multiple physical and mental health issues now at increased dose, completely unrelated to weight loss of previous GLP-1's...
It seems not unheard of: It's better even when I don't take them, but over the past five years I've had increasing issues with my ADHD medication having a little effect. Eventually switching to one of the most powerful at a high dose with essentially no impact. That's... fixed.
I don't know if I should be posting this you cannot legally or provably safely get this outside of prescription trials right now. But. It's like changing my life and I don't know what to do with that information.

I'm gonna tell you what happened to IPv6.

It is maybe the most important thing that's ever happened.

And that is NAT. Which is really port address translation but we're not gonna get into that right now.
NAT is the hack that made 15 quadrillion devices fit into the space of 4 billion.

And did it while making them protected.

NAT ruined the world of ideas as to what the Internet was, as it built the Internet we have today.

NAT is the greatest hack that has ever been hacked.
NAT is the greatest sin. It is an imposition on the idea of heaven.

NAT made your world. It is why you need a fundamental understanding of networking theory.

NAT broke it, and remade itself in its own image. It is the idea of something you could do, shouldn't,

but did.

I'm gonna do something stupidly earnest here.

I'm going to make an analogy as to what Taylor Swift is allowed to do with her seniority and autonomy. others would likely shy from.

And I want to make an analogy to my own experience watching and performing professionally in IT.
Taylor Swift is allowed to write about random characters in Shakespeare, and not care you have no idea who they are. She's allowed to write indulgent songs of purposely cringe lyrics about getting ravaged by soulmate.

But permission is something ENTIRELY different from audacity.
What Taylor Swift has is not permission. She has audacity.

The fact that she has transcended permission is sort of immaterial to my point.

So much of life is not about asking permission. It is having the audacity to simply fucking do it.

This is a constant across any subject.

USCSB ‼️⚠️ ⁦@chemsafetyboard⁩ proposed to lose all funding under Trump budget. A rare agency with true bipartisan and industry support, recognized for how cheap it is in prevention analysis and education materials. grist.org/energy/trump-q…
From 2020 when Trump admin tried to kill @chemsafetyboard for reasons literally nobody could understand even Congress.
@chemsafetyboard ~$14m/yr for teams that work on stopping incidents that maim/kill and cost hundreds of billions of a year in capital alone, not to mention downstream societal impact. They are broad advisors, tell industry and regulators what went wrong and how to prevent it.

The thing about Active Directory, is you can't understand any of it unless you begin from the past before it. You cannot examine it from the future. You will get only nonsensicals.
And that's really where most commentators fail. They don't know why. Because there is a reason.
The reasons Active Directory fails is deeper than technology. It is from inception, to ironically be more open than you conceive. It is the sourcing of philosophy in staff whose only job was one portion. Whose users, absolute experts. Whose salary paid one. This... didn't happen.
Active Directory is truly beautiful. But it's a beauty you can only experience in the world it was envisioned for. Outside, it is a horror of hacks trying to address things you can only ascribe hate. Decades later. But trust me, it is beautiful. I wish you could see it, how I do.

I live on a secluded area of my street with little traffic but I purposefully make it evident my surveillance and you know what every dog walker picks up their poop. Image
👏Always👏be👏engineering👏perception👏

Even on gate I don't lock I have a fake one that makes it appear always padlocked. I have spike strips that are just plastic on areas you could boost over my fence.
I do the same thing in enterprise security. We appear to have three different top-tier antivirus, running on a malware analysis VM, with debug tools running, and more traces like that.

This is your playground they're in and stop denying yourself the freedom to fake it.
