I say let him do that and then let congress legislate this once the grim details of how the human subjects died creates a scandal and political unity across the aisle. It’s the American Way®

Dark mode issues hahahahaha

Oh that’s sad. The nature of commerce and competition means that proprietary stuff will never go away because making closed stuff is the way MBAs are taught to create “competitive advantage”

What’s holding GNU/Hurd back? Can’t be hardware anymore since it became blazing fast

That was not the UNIX way… True UNIX way would end silently and have zero as $?

Thanks for reminding me of this masterpiece of writing about management of social networks

People point fingers at Meta for “allowing” this but there’s no amount of money that can reasonably moderate 3 b-b-billion users.

This is a prime use case for AI technology

I hate packing because I have to make many decisions and remember of previous packing experiences where I used less than half of the clothes, so I keep rearranging until last minute.

Anyway, this time I had an intense two weeks at work preparing things before I went on my holiday. I had to wake up at 4:45am to go into the airport but the last time I messed up with the bags was 1:30am on the same day. “No biggie” I thought, and I set the alarm for 4:45 and slept.

When I wake up, the first thing I remember thinking was “damn, that was a nice, deep sleep. I feel good”. The sun was shining gently through the curtains and it felt like a great Saturday morning A few seconds later I realize something was off. I reach my phone and look at the time: something past 11am.

Long story short I had to buy an one way ticket and luckily there was another flight on the afternoon.

The aftermath: I don’t trust my mobile phone to wake me up. I set two separate alarms to wake me up if I have one of those very early morning flights. If I am in a hotel, I also request two separate wake up calls, just to be sure.

Sleep during mid-day

Then your instance will mirror all those questionably legal communities and re-serve them to the public unauthenticated internet, creating hosting liability for you.

To be frank, this liability risk exists even in well-moderated communities as it only takes one rogue poster/commenter to “contaminate” your own instance…

Maybe a better way to say that would be to say “humans are inherently random” as that is more feared by corporations

Just like vinyl albums are now $50+ a piece

That is, the skill of a Hollywood star is not really anything to do with the product, but simply being famous, recognizable, and likeable.

I bet studio execs and agents hate having to deal with their stars’ erratic behavior off screen and their personal projects. AI stars voiced by unseen voice actors are much more easier to deal with and they can pay voice actors less. This is IT driven enshittification of the entertainment industry.

In essence those are just a PC, switch, NAS, and UPS…

I still do not know how to access them through Jerboa
