Tell me again about how Biden is to blame for high gas prices."The stock repurchase program will kick in April 1 and will be triple the size of the previous authorization unveiled in early 2019, the company said in a statement Wednesday. The program is equivalent to almost one-fourth of the company’s market value and five times the current level of annual buybacks."Like my Memaw used to say, "Them as has, gets."https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-01-25/chevron-raises-dividend-plans-to-buy-back-75-billion-in-stock?srnd=premium&sref=KkPzpZvz

From @pluralistic:"Everything we do is mediated by gigantic, surveillant monopolists that spy on us comprehensively from asshole to appetite – but none of them, not a 20th century payment giant nor a 21st century search giant – can bestir itself to use that data to keep us safe from scams."I'm so weary of constantly being on defense against scam artists.https://pluralistic.net/2023/02/24/passive-income/#swiss-cheese-security

This reads like fscking sci-fi. Mind. Blown."All that’s required to steal the private key stored on the smart card is an Internet-connected surveillance camera that can be as far as 62 feet away from the targeted reader. The side-channel attack on the Samsung Galaxy handset can be performed by an iPhone 13 camera that’s already present in the same room."https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2023/06/hackers-can-steal-cryptographic-keys-by-video-recording-connected-power-leds-60-feet-away/
