This column from the ABA gives a good history of PDF redaction. Written in response to the fuckups with the Manafort docs And yeah, it's generally either highlighting in black or putting black bars over things without removing the text quote:Do I think this column will prevent future embarrassment caused by ineffective redactions? No, I have no such illusion. As the task of redacting falls to others in the future, we can expect more mistakes similar to those described above. Those errors will lead to embarrassments for the principals, which will lead to . . . well, you get the point. To paraphrase Benjamin Franklin, the digital age is upon us and has an appearance that promises permanency; however, for now, nothing in this world can be said to be certain, except death, taxes, and redaction failures. We will hear more about all of them in the future. stringless has issued a correction as of 10:52 on Jul 31, 2020 |

eshock posted:Did Dersh's grandson go to Harvard? There was a Cum Town episode where they told a story they heard from someone at the Harvard Lampoon: they had a friend who lost their virginity on Little St. James, and he flew there with his grandfather on the Lolita Express. I don't remember anything else about the episode sorry. yep also has a staff page for the Harvard Lampoon

inferis posted:the 5g stuff drives me crazy because obviously the claims about it have nothing backing them up, but what people object to is being suspicious of new technology and implicitly trusting that the government wouldn’t pursue dangerous technology if it serves their interests crazy eyes mustafa posted:It’s apparently millimeter wave radiation (same as the airport scanners that are supposed to be kept at a lower frequency but the TSA cranks up to actually be able to see anything- and yes they can see everything in great detail and share the images amongst themselves) which I don’t think the effects of being bathed in it all day every day have been studied enough so we get to live the experiment instead. If it comes down to just not wanting to be a part of an experiment (similar to being a pedestrian on streets where self driving cars are plowing through crosswalks) where the effects are literally unknown then I can understand that. i remember reading about how 5G was going to interfere with weather satellites since it can get close to the frequency used to detect water vapor, did anything ever come of that? besides "money said 'no'"

OutOfPrint posted:Aliens that look like white people have been reported since at the latest the 50's, but that is most likely because white people are descendants of the first human/grey breeding program. Just like how the Hollywod ideal of beauty for women is white with large eyes and small mouths to subtly guide standards of beauty toward alien/human hybrids, which is actually a thing people actually believe.

Proust Malone posted:I know people who do this and it is very clockwork orange even without being domestic gladio. The assessment portion is pretty straight forward. the plethysmograph is a ring like a blood pressure cuff around the duck and the person is shown various forms of porn, the point being to distinguish how much a person is turned on by say adult consensual behavior vs non consensual or kids vs adults, boys vs girls etc. The “treatment” though is making the dudes jerk off while like mantra-ing appropriate sexual encounters and then after they cum, continuing to jerk off their now flaccid dick to inappropriate fantasy scenarios. “I am touching the buttocks of a ten year old boy...I am touching the buttocks of a ten year old boy...” it was an elastic wire ring that measured my physical response to various spoken word sexual situations (which were mostly "deviant" or that other similar term that starts with a "d" that nazis are super concerned about but i can't currently remember) it was incredibly creepy then and in retrospect it's fully horrifying, super happy to recall this, thanks

imo the best bit is how the Veiled Prophet in 1972 was unveiled by a protester (who accomplished this via a rope descent) to be the VP of Monsanto (it's in the Atlantic article) quote:The 1972 Veiled Prophet was unmasked in what was one of the most dramatic guerrilla protests ever organized by local civil-rights leader Percy Green. The Ball that year was held in cavernous Kiel Auditorium. Activist Gena Scott, dramatically sliding down a power cable a la Mission Impossible, unmasked the enthroned Prophet. It turned out to be the then-executive vice president of Monsanto, Tom K. Smith. Scott’s car was bombed and her house vandalized. https://twitter.com/devintoshea/status/1283123649902514176 stringless has issued a correction as of 07:04 on Jun 1, 2021 |

lovely biblical literalism almost always leans into the antisemitic + detached from reality zone so maybe they split the difference? like the Serpent Seed doctrine is 100% "Jesus was white and The Jews are descended from Satan"
