The amount of wishful thinking is honestly surprising to me, even though my expectations about these folks is already pretty low. It’s just… are all of the brain cells focused on keeping them breathing?
I totally get it. Nobody wants to pay taxes, or fees, and it’s getting harder for people to afford food much less car insurance, registration, emissions inspections, yadda yadda. The SovCit thing must be appealing. But, still, interpreting that situation like that? It seems like a new level of dumb.
They’re interchangeable tankie fuckwads. It doesn’t matter what their names are, they all regurgitate the same lines. Besides, I’d rather not fuel their persecution complex.
Hey, let’s leave the baseless LLM accusations to them, yeah?
LLMs are used in discourse to change people’s minds. No one who thinks the Tiananmen Square massacre happened is going to buy this, especially if the only place they post their opinions to the contrary is an instance that every other Lemmy instance with an ounce of self-respect has defederated from. It’s tempting to believe these people as AIs because the alternative is believing that actual humans hold those views, which is much scarier. Unlike tankies I have faith in our ability to live without comforting delusions.
Anonymous social media accounts sure. But using LLMs to spread propaganda in a forum where the only people liable to see it are people who already agree just seems like a waste of effort.
This latest debacle is making my department move from windows to Linux. We were already planning it very slowly but then everything crashed at the same time…and all our other services worked except the ones on windows boxes. We can’t afford downtime so it was decided.
I don’t know how CrowdStrike works on Linux, but it’s worth remembering that if it’s a kernel level driver like it is on windows, and they release a driver that crashes the Linux kernel, there’s a chance for the same thing to happen.
Thank you for mentioning that. I really hate how people on here think Linux is some panacea that will magically solve everything. It too it just another tool that depends on how it’s used. CrowdStrike exists for Linux, and it was crashing systems a few months ago.
The bigger issue is most people who use Linux know what they’re doing. There are a lot of competent Windows Administrators too who didn’t have issues or were able to recover them in a timely manner. What happens though is you have a very large set of people who just need a computer, need is secured and don’t know how to administer or manage it. Doesn’t matter if they’re running Linux, or Windows, they’ll always have the greatest problems. They just happen to use Windows because it offers better Enterprise support options and usability. One day, Linux may be that, but I guarantee it won’t fix all of those pebkac issues.
I mostly agree. As someone that’s worked with both Windows and Linux for over 15 years, I think we need to ask the question of “why do we see so many incompetent admins?”
If you aren’t paying people enough to give a shit about what they are doing, they won’t.
The answer is that companies are unwilling to allocate sufficient budget to infrastructure. So anyone competent leaves either because either there is better pay elsewhere, or they don’t want to be held responsible for the shoestring shitshow that companies are willing to pay for.
Which is sort of the reason crowdstrike is so popular in the first place. Technically inept leaders want to check a “secure” box in their infrastructure presentation to the board, and certainly don’t want to hire an actual cybersecurity team alongside what they already consider to be an expensive IT team. (Granted they can’t do the mental work of realizing that basically every one of their employee uses a computer every day for hours at a time, and connects to vast networks of computers sitting in datacenters). So to save money, and seeing the legally binding contract, they use crowdstrike.
I personally get nervous when any software wants to mess with drivers unless it’s graphic drivers.
For work we don’t plan on using cloud strike. We needed to get everything up asap and the os allowed us to do so quickly. Seemingly unrelated systems and Azure was all down for quite some time.
I get that legacy support sucks and nobody wants to do it, but the new product is just an ad serving platform under the guise of being an OS. Maybe try to release a good Windows platform before asking people zo switch to that, just a thought I had.
Can you really say 10 is better than 7, though? 7 maybe better than vista, And 10 better than 8, But I maintain that it’s a downward slope and that the versions keep getting worse overall
To Microsoft, being an automatic ad platform is WHY they consider it better than 10. They have zero incentive to release an OS that doesn’t ad spam or datamine you.
But… The post is already encouraging people to eat meat. Like this post is literally designed to pester people who don’t eat meat, but then the meat eating people got mad anyway
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !trendingcommunities
You’re right, I haven’t seen that in a while. The about page for the community has a link to the bot’s source code on GitHub, but it’s giving me a 404 error.
You are right and Iam sorry. I mixed up not only the recipes but also the name for the potato dish. There is a potato dish where you basically form balls and fry them and i misremembered the Name.
So yeah its basically chickpeas and potato mashed and formed to Balls before air frying, in oil would probably give more taste, but i try to be more healty so no frying for me.

No need to apologise, we all have brain farts sometimes. And akshully, duchess potatoes are baked and so are your balls, so there’s a crossover after all. It’s all looking great!
