Scruffpuff posted:All this bullshit is why people have started going back to telling the really important secrets the old-fashioned way: in person, naked, after a cavity search, in the middle of the woods where there is no cell signal. This is Derek's procedure for his CIG sources. It's not strictly necessary but he enjoys it.

It's nice to imagine yourself stonewalling a judge to protect your privacy, but when you're actually sat in court or being interviewed by a federal agent, do you really think you'd do it? When they threaten you with obstruction or contempt of court, will you really not waver? What if you're not the one who's at risk, but the email's sender? Life is not a movie, the majority of people will not defy the system to protect another person when they realize their livelihood is at risk.

Roeben posted:The idea that CIG is "Resume Poison" is a bit ridiculous to be honest. No sane employer would value the result of a single project over the contents of someones portfolio. i can tell you that is false when it comes to this industry. people with "Ion Storm" and "3D realms" have been looked at with a wide side-eye because of that association. Its risky to hire someone from a shitshow because it's hard to find out if they had anything to do with the poo poo. its also inverted, some people with "Halo" on their resume have been hired practically site unseen, and quickly found out ot be idiots. so it goes both ways. I can tell you that CIG has driven people out of the industry completely already.

D_Smart posted:Also, it is important to note that they are not keeping it open to spite me. This is what I said back in Sept 2015. Derek you said "they are not keeping it open to spite me." Yet on your link you said. quote:As I had mentioned a few weeks ago, multiple sources are telling me that the plan is to close the Austin office by end of this year. People let go so far are Artists, Engineers, and Designers working on the PU (!!!!!). I don't have an opinion on this. But do you really think you had no influence on their Austin decision, or did you insert a "not" when you didn't mean to? I'm not disagreeing about the PU staff going, as far as I can see there's only one design developer there in addition to Tony Zurovec, plus a single producer and both of those seem rather new to their roles.

Somehow, some people simply can't even imagine that. i hear you brother. when i debriefed people i knew about cig they were astonished. I would absolutely recommend unemployment over working there. the paycheck is not worth the stress and crushing hostility of working there.

The general advice of "Don't assume your secrets are safe since you sent them via encrypted email" still seems sound, since the majority are not like you.

nopantsjack posted:didnt elite get discounted to a tenner when horizons came out anyway? They have not announced the next expansion after Horizons. Horizons is a year of updates, so anything that comes out for 2.X you will get with your purchase of Horizons. You might be confusing the Eng update with being an expansion (you get it with your purchase of Horizons). You should expect another Expansion to be announced by the end of this year, and if they follow the same pattern one at the end of the following years.

Iglocska posted:I use PGP every day too. So then why are you confusing... this: you can send email that's encrypted while in transit, but it ends up being plain text when it arrives with this: And if the person doesn't use PGP, or know how to, then you have a problem They are two COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THINGS 1) Email sent through various services (GMail, Outlook, Yahoo etc) are encrypted in transit. Can't be decoded if intercepted. It originates as plaint text from person A, is encrypted in transit automatically, and ends up as plaint text at person B 2) Email sent using PGP or similar, is encrypted at person A, while in transit, and at Person B. Both people MUST be using PGP in order to decode/read the message ergo: 1) sending private comms in #1 does not encrypt it when it's NOT in transit. Which means anyone can read it either at point A or B; but NOT while in transit 2) sending private comms in #2 encrypts it every step of the way. The downside is that unless BOTH people are using PGP, it simply doesn't work So, #1 is out. #2 requires both people, one of whom may not even know what PGP is, let alone how to use it, is NOT optimal for sharing private messages. Which is where the other services (which do NOT require ANY knowledge to use) I mentioned in my original post, come in. In case you got lost at the water cooler, here, let me post it all again for you. quote:Pay attention:
