It’s also an inside Joke

Florida man fails math, yet again

No one said “always”; original comment is correct that fiber can literally go miles

But how will my dad type out text messages in letter form with this?

There are plenty of places that deliver bubbly, cloudy, milky water and it ain’t from fluoride

4am ,

There aren’t drugs in your water. There are minerals though.

“Free Healthcare” is free as in libre, not free as in beer.

Everyone is free to get it. We all pay for it. We would pay far less than what we pay now in premiums. It works on other countries, and there is no reason it wouldn’t work here in the USA.

4am ,

Downplaying the usefulness of Flouride, writing it off as though to imply it’s some kind of scam, while even acknowledging its usefulness is a fucking weird take.

“Yeah we added it to the water supply because it prevents people teeth from falling out but GUYS did you know they get it from companies that don’t want it? What a fuckin SCAM huh?” Is how you comment comes off

Linux 6.10 To Merge NTSYNC Driver For Emulating Windows NT Synchronization Primitives (www.phoronix.com)

Going through my usual scanning of all the “-next” Git subsystem branches of new code set to be introduced for the next Linux kernel merge window, a very notable addition was just queued up… Linux 6.10 is set to merge the NTSYNC driver for emulating the Microsoft Windows NT synchronization primitives within the kernel for...

Oh no, all the projects are maturing and stabilizing? How boring, I don’t know how Linux gaming will survive

4am ,

Fords too

You saw a lot of dumbasses who could just pull up to the gas pump facing the other direction and solve their problem easily

BEER, BBQ, FREEDOM

Push the second button down on the right 3 times

That’s not what discord is for if you are doing anything where a big corporation wants to muscle you around.

I mean that depends? Does it actually work? Does it record all my data constantly and send it to Apple in a continuous stream, or is it fully local? will it actually provide some useful service like better search, will it be able to bootstrap projects for me? Learn my workflow patterns and assist by preparing stuff preemptively, or make intelligent suggestions on how to improve efficiency? Can it attempt to organize my awful, trash filing system of pictures, movies, half-started projects into something less painful to look at? Can it help my computer get out of my way when I don’t feel like being all computery (which I love but sometimes it shouldn’t be the focus)? Can it do these things well and without leaking them to some cloud?

Because that’s what we’ve been trying to make computers do since the PC first came along and I’d fuckin pay for that.

EDIT: to more directly answer your question, no one wants SaaS AIs by the FANG because they’re labor-replacement machines aimed at the ultimate grift; extracting capital out of the capitalists at the expense of the everyday workers. But that doesn’t mean that every AI is a speculative language model trained on the stolen data of all humanity to be used as a tool for class warfare; if they can create a neural net that can focus on other things besides language (or hell? Even language) that runs locally- if they can eat Microsoft’s lunch and create an actual co-pilot; they’d charge a premium as they always do but if it works well enough, it might be worth it.

This always happens when something new and novel has “potential”. VC money has been funding loss-leaders for two decades and they wanna cash in on the next gold rush. Just like blockchain, expect to see this beaten to death and shoehorned into places it really has no real use. They’ll be a few really solid things that are found for it to do though, and it will excel in those places. Then we’ll all laugh about “remember when they thought LLMs were the next big thing? What a bubble that turned out to be, like pets.com all over again”

4am ,

My brother in Christ, a LLM is a tree

4am ,

Literally the only advertisement that most people still tolerate and these fuckers are like “no! We didn’t spend money on it, it can’t be good!”

4am ,

The article literally says they don’t work with anything newer than 2G

4am ,

I feel like Vision Pro has plenty of tech, but it seems like a solution in search of a problem.

4am ,

I’m pretty sure Apple did not intend for them to be worn in public. From the way they function to the way they market them, seems to be a “sitting in your comfortable space not fumbling a laptop” type of device, not really a “go jogging” or “ride the train” or “autopilot your Tesla like a complete moron” type of thing despite what some people just assumed.

4am ,

Exploits were removed. Maintainer who committed them still banned. xz is a critical piece of software.

4am ,

I mean if all the screenshots people take with their battery in the corner at 1% is any indication, you won’t always have one lol

4am ,

They sell fishing gear lol

Is xz 5.6.1-3+ still dangerous?

When the xz backdoor was discovered, I quickly uninstalled my Arch based setup with an infected version of the software and switched to a distro that shipped an older version (5.5 or 5.4 or something). I found an article which said that in 5.6.1-3 the backdoor was “fixed” by just not letting the malware part communicating...

4am ,

What about all the unknown back doors in the old versions 👻

4am ,

It means any place where total oligarchy is resisted in any way whatsoever.

It sounds like a stupid comment to rally the hogs, but in reality these types of things are a mask-off moment.

“We hate it when people attempt to better their lives because it threatens our wealth”

EDIT: I mean yes, it’s all those other things too. America’s Mayor would, be definition, have to be a dumbass bootlicking yes man who swindles for votes AND also be a fascist culture-warring capital defender.

How do we know if there aren't a bunch of more undetected backdoors?

I have been thinking about self-hosting my personal photos on my linux server. After the recent backdoor was detected I’m more hesitant to do so especially because i’m no security expert and don’t have the time and knowledge to audit my server. All I’ve done so far is disabling password logins and changing the ssh port....

4am ,

no one will ever attempt to hack you

My brother in Christ, how do you think botnets get built?

4am ,

Could it be this AND block size vs actual used size?

When A24 branches out from movies, we’re gonna have a whole new era, boys!

Android invades your privacy SO much less, Google is just the BEST 🙄

Are you Buzz Lightyear?

I love your movies!

You don’t need widows to game anymore (Proton the game software for Linux, not Proton the VPN/email provider)

Hey hey; discord is rumored to be doing ads now. No talking good about them!

That’s ASIC album

You’re describing Passkeys/WebAuthN

Wouldn’t they need to forcibly ignore/remove HDCP for this to work? Isn’t that a DMCA violation?

Biden Demands Immediate Gaza Cease-Fire in Call With Israel’s Netanyahu (www.wsj.com)

He also called on Israel to take immediate steps “to address civilian harm, humanitarian suffering, and the safety of aid workers” and “made clear that U.S. policy with respect to Gaza will be determined by our assessment of Israel’s immediate action on these steps,” according to the White House statement....

4am ,

but the others weren’t nearly as newsworthy due to being of Arab descent.

You may want to add an “apparently” to that or I’m afraid it could be taken the wrong way…

4am ,

Sometimes it’s multiple presses. Around here for example I find that at my local Shell station it’s the second button down on the right side, two or three times.

4am ,

If smart options were actually smart you could do that.

With the right devices I’m certain this can be done with HomeAssistant, but everyone who makes these appliances wants to wall you into their cloud ecosystem and harvest your activity data.

4am ,

There are situations where you might want to monitor water use (someone mentioned delaying cycles based on water softener status), or people like me who might need a phone reminder because I’ll forget I put a load in and get busy with something else and it’s nice if I don’t have the extra step of setting a timer and trying to get it just right.

The problem isn’t the connectivity, the problem is the proprietary cloud ecosystems. HomeAssistant is already a brilliant home automation hub, just make devices repairable and with local control and I’ll be a customer.

4am ,

I think “default” on this context would refer to the search engine that is selected OOTB; Google is the default; the others are merely included. There can be only one default.

4am ,

FYI you can order them online

Rowling literally did holocaust denial not too long ago

Did game companies get royalties from rentals? I though the idea was that you’d want to buy it if you couldn’t beat it in a rental period

4am ,

We had them before that but they were different and not a lot of stuff made use of them

4am ,

The stored encryption keys are assembled by finding secrets in the game. The hope is that people will find the secrets by playing the game faster than it can be assembled via data mining, thus players actually playing will do the discovery.

Hopefully it works; once someone does it the cat’s out of the bag anyway; the attempt here is to make it genuine.
