This is an issue as there is a large sigint site at the Truman Annex. Makes me think they are seeing what antennas and other items exist there watching Cuba. Maybe China has some interest in Cuba now? As far as sigint sites go, this one is the most accessible due to being the southern most point in the USA. We always had problems with tourist wandering up the beach and around the fence.

Specifically "which infamously used stolen Facebook data to target voters for President Donald Trump’s campaign in the 2016 U.S. election" from the article is inaccurate.

There have been many bugs in NetBSD code that are found and fixed. Quite often these bugs are in code shared with OpenBSD, but you never see them list it as such, as they import said fixes from NetBSD.

Greetings, Lynx users. There is a reason this page doesn't use ALT tags on the images. The reason is that the bozos responsible for both MSIE and Netscape Confusicator 4.0 decided that they would display the ALT tags of images every time you move the mouse over them -- even if the images are loaded, and even if they are not links. The ALT attribute to the IMG tag is supposed to be used instead of the image, not in addition to the image.

This looks absolutely terrible, so I don't use ALT tags any more in self-defense.

If they wanted to implemented tooltips, they should have used the TITLE attribute to the A tag. That's in the HTML 1.2 spec and everything.

I had to decide between making this page look good for the vast majority of viewers, or making it be readable by the miniscule minority of you stuck in the 70s. Those of you in the retro contingent lost. Sorry.

We call it "culture". Public restrooms don't help, people do it despite those, and often near them. We've had people come in during a change window late at night, and go right outside our office door. The custodian said he passed the person on their way out, and had to clean it up. Then there is that moment you realized someone tracked some into your office after walking to get lunch. It's very offsetting.

Why is it every answer to this solved problem involves someone new playing go between in social networks? "Come to my alternative to X, where instead of X-corp handling all your data, Y-corp will!" The internet was not suppose to be like this...

Been here ten years, and cycling to work is a nightmare. Between every shop owner spraying down the sidewalk with a chemical bath into the street. Then pigeons bathe in it and take flight when you pass. Ensuring you get wet. There are public restrooms everywhere. It's just nonsense to have to deal with. Almost all the banks have studded areas outside to prevent camping. It's been referred to as "celebration of bum culture."
