  • US strikes Venezuela and says its leader, Maduro, has been captured and flown out of the country

  • Good point.

  • CNN team witnesses multiple explosions in Venezuela’s capital Caracas | CNN

  • Chaos is what they're likely striving for in my opinion.

    Jump

  • So Trump is just like Putin attacking Ukraine?

    Similar, although without the intent of territorial expansion (most likely), and with successful kidnapping of the head of state. Not only would this be illegal per US law, but it's also likely internationally illegal. Trump just doesn't give a fuck about laws, since no one in power has really challenged him. He's going to get away with this one, too.

  • Mike Lee is one of the fucks responsible for allowing Trump to do this, to be clear. I don't see this actually crossing any sort of line for him.

  • Microsoft CEO wants you to stop calling AI "slop" in 2026

  • LLM sludge

  • Microsoft CEO wants you to stop calling AI "slop" in 2026

    Jump

  • While the article could very well be slop (and I'm not defending it either way, also fuck the CEO of microsoft), it's very common for (actual) journalists to use the emdash, that's where the models likely picked it up from to begin with. I hesitate to use the emdash alone as an indicator for slop. When it's paired with lists, lots of bold, over embellishments, and common slop phrases ("but here's the thing", "everything changed", "marking a pivotal moment", "the transformative power", "further enhancing", "pivotal", etc), then I start to think that it's LLM slop. Wikipedia has a great page on how to spot common slop. It also mentions that one of these is not necessarily a sign of slop, but when there's a lot of these together it definitely can be.

    The statement from the CEO is almost certainly LLM slop.

  • Ignoring the internet bill itself, how many paid online services do you have?

    Jump

  • Paying not only supports the archive but also allows you to download a ton of books at full speed

  • What paid software is absolutely worth the money?

    Jump

  • I really like RadarOmega, and it also has a decent desktop app (even on Linux!). Although obviously GRLevelX is much more advanced.

    I changed to RadarOmega after Radarscope stopped working on my GrapheneOS phone.

    Jump

  • Kagi is definitely worth it.

  • Ignoring the internet bill itself, how many paid online services do you have?

    Jump

  • Kagi, domain registration, RadarOmega (really good weather radar), Zenarmor (for my router running opnsense), SaucePlus, Tuta, Mailbox.org, SimpleFin (for self hosted budget using real time data with Actual), Backblaze B2. I think that's about it.

  • IPv6 just turned 30 and still hasn’t taken over the world, but don't call it a failure

    Jump

  • ssh aliases changed my life

  • Bazzite has seen a massive jolt in growth over the holiday season, surpassing 50k active users. The Fedora Atomic image has gained 38.8k users total in 2025 since it began counting in April 🥳

    Jump

  • People have been saying this for a year, and the line only keeps going up.

  • Linux gaming is growing! The Roblox client Sober was downloaded 1.3 million times this year.

    Jump

  • It hasn't existed that long.

  • Switching to electric stoves can dramatically cut indoor air pollution

    Jump

  • Induction can also boil water much faster than gas ever could. And to be honest, as much hate as they get, I would even prefer non-induction electric over gas at this point.

  • How often do you change your towels?

    Jump

  • I wash mine about the same, but I only buy new if they start to fall apart or no longer dry properly. Even then, they go into the scrap towel drawer and are used for dirty jobs. Eventually they'll get too dirty and I'll get rid of them.

    As a Nurse who works nation wide I have seen the effects of narcan on heroin,meth,acid and such. But what would happen to a person who is really really high on weed?

    Jump

  • I'm not sure I'm understanding your question correctly, but generally if someone is "too high" and "greens out", they will be likely to have a panic attack, show general paranoia, and symptoms like dizziness and nausea. It's not really a medical emergency, although to the user it probably will seem like one. There is no need to provide treatment other than making the user feel comfortable. Over time, they'll come down and be fine again (but maybe a bit tired from the ordeal).

    I speak from experience, as someone who has greened out several times in the past.

  • I'm afraid of my neighbors calling ICE and breaking up my family

    Jump

  • The problem is that they consider international airports to be "borders" so you also have to live 200 miles away from those. It's almost impossible to find that, and even then they don't exactly follow laws to begin with.

  • Health Connect - is it useful for foss apps?

    Jump

  • I know it works with Home Assistant and doesn't work with gadgetbridge (as far as I can tell). My hope is that eventually Gadgetbridge will be able to send my health stats (through Health connect) to my HA install.
