Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Where tasty lettuce and good mustard aren’t elitist.

It’s the corruption, stupid.

The house always wins.

Shocking, but not surprising

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

False Scribes! False Scribes!

Tick tock motherfuckers! Tick fucking tock!

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

I can’t take this shit today. I just can’t.

This fight is for everything.

I personally stopped the public option…

Hot air and ill-informed banter

Women: they get shit done

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

All your base are belong to Tunch.

They traffic in fear. it is their only currency. if we are fearful, they are winning.

There will be lawyers.

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

Naturally gregarious and alpha

This blog will pay for itself.

If you tweet it in all caps, that makes it true!

The willow is too close to the house.

Call the National Guard if your insurrection lasts more than four hours.

The conservative site “63red” created a safe space app that allows MAGAts to find places where they can wear their red caps without being called names. You know, what they make fun of liberals for doing. Anyway, predictably, the guy who created it (Wallace) fucked it up from bean to cup:

  • Wallace had left his username, email, and a plaintext password in the code—twice.
  • There is no authentication for any of the application programming interface [API] calls, so someone could spoof any user—essentially giving them administrative access to the API.
  • […]By using the “Get user by ID” API call, someone could retrieve the user name, email, ban status, and other details on each user account.
  • Passwords were not in this data, but the entire user database could be retrieved by iterating through all the possible first letters or digits of an account ID.
  • Any user could be blocked using an HTTP Post to the “block” API.

If none of that makes sense, the simple summary is that the app is a security catastrophe full of baby-level errors. Of course, Wallace’s response to the security researcher who found all of these issues was to threaten him, and to lie and say they were fixed when they weren’t.

I’m wondering what “63red” stands for. Is it the Pantone color code for the shade used on the cover of the original edition of Mein Kampf? Maybe someone who speaks more fluent wingnut can help out in the comments.

    “63red” may refer to the nearly 63M that voted for Donnie, and the red color that is used to represent GOP areas in maps.

    These folks always want to claim that they’re more popular than they actually are, so that sorta fits, also too.

    Speaking of MAGA spaces, I was out in the DC exurbs waiting at a Panera during a specialty vet visit, and a guy walking past leaned over and said “make ‘merica great again” as he walked out the door.

    I had been focused on my laptop, so I kind of looked up blinking and then he was out the door. I realized it was because I have a “Love Trumps Hate” sticker on my laptop. It wasn’t hostile, more like the tone someone might take it they saw a jersey for a rival sports team. But it was still weird.

    63red is also trying to build a MAGat App Brand with news and other conservative “tools”.

    Welp, UK wanders further down the Trumpistan pathway.

    Theresa May’s EU withdrawal deal has been rejected by MPs by an overwhelming majority for a second time, with just 17 days to go to Brexit.

    MPs voted down the prime minister’s deal by 149 – a smaller margin than when they rejected it in January.

    Mrs May said MPs will now get a vote on whether the UK should leave the EU without a deal and, if that fails, on whether Brexit should be delayed. She said Tory MPs will get a free vote on a no-deal Brexit.

    “I’m struck, as the British parliament moves towards the endgame on Brexit, with the number of times Australia, Canada, New Zealand and India have been advanced by the Brexiteers in the public debate as magical alternatives to Britain’s current trade and investment relationship with the European Union. This is the nuttiest of the many nutty arguments that have emerged from the Land of Hope and Glory set now masquerading as the authentic standard-bearers of British patriotism. It’s utter bollocks.”

    https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2019/mar/11/commonwealth-save-brexit-britain-utter-delusion-kevin-rudd

    “If Britain proceeds with giving effect to what future historians will legitimately describe as the longest suicide note in history by leaving the union, the cold, hard reality is that the mathematics simply don’t stack up in terms of credible economic alternatives to Europe. Much as any Australian, Canadian and New Zealand governments of whichever persuasion would do whatever they could to frame new free-trade agreements with the UK, the bottom line is that 65 million of us do not come within a bull’s roar of Britain’s adjacent market of 450 million Europeans.”

    @?BillinGlendaleCA: He probably saw an image at hubblesite.org and was frightened because it could be called mayonnaise colored, because in some of those it almost looks like it has a similar hue.

    Doesn’t take a seer to suss out your feelings towards Caldwell 39.

    I figured the real purpose of this app was to finger and harass businesses that didn’t toe their line.

    Even sample web apps typically have better security. That stuff is laughable

    Incentive for me to spend more time at the local branch of my bank, which instituted a ‘no hats, no sunglasses’ policy after a robbery there quite some years ago.

    @Jay: I don’t think the EU will allow any delay past May 22. May 23 is the EU Parliament election, and they don’t want a lame-duck UK voting in pro-Brexit reps.

    Provided that hard Brexit fails tomorrow, an extension to May 15 should be enough time for UK to hold a new referendum that pits May’s Brexit vs. Remain.

    @Omnes Omnibus: SgrA* doesn’t care, it’s a super-massive black hole. If you get too close to it, gravity is the boss of you. It’s the law.

    @BillinGlendaleCA: Do you know what’s going on with the Event Horizon Telescope? This time last year they were taking the images of it, so I figured they’d have had the thing decoded by now. The last I heard, they had a big blast of x-rays where they expected to see a shadow (I would think it somewhat odd for its jet to be pointing at us)

    @Spider-Dan:

    What May wants, and says she can get, are different from reality.

    I’ll be surprised if the EU allows May to kick the can down the road.

    @Andrew: FWIW, site I found discussing first edition identification of editions of Mein Kamp states:

    The first volume of Mein Kampf was published in 1925, and it sold 9,473 copies in its first year. In 1927, the second volume on national socialism was published. The first edition of the first volume is marked by a red cover subtitled “A Reckoning”. The book had relatively mediocre success until 1933 when Hitler became Chancellor, upon which sales of the book skyrocketed.

    https://www.biblio.com/mein-kampf-by-hitler-adolf/work/82968

    Early edition seem to be available for fans, like the current GOP, at quite reasonable prices.

    “63Red” is actually the codename for the wingnut plan to turn every state red in the next election.

    @B.B.A.: Nah, we should just pick a couple of them to use as playpens for the legacies who don’t want to be there and let the serious students occupy the slots in the others. I vote that Dartmouth and Brown be two of the serious student schools.

    (Sez the person who said No to Yale and is glad she did.)

    As any trump would tell you, the point of any con is to get a big enough haul fast enough to fund a lavish lifestyle and fund the next con. Duh. Fail. Sad.
