  • We Desperately Need Maximum Wage Laws

  • Why should I care? There's no inherent reason lotteries deserve to exist. There are several reasons they shouldn't exist.

  • I went to an anti-tech rally, where Gen Z dressed as gnomes and smashed iPhones. Here's what I learned. | Business Insider

  • Inkjet printers are good for furry artists who sell prints at conventions. Hmm... that's actually so specific that it reinforces your point.

  • Mozilla's Firefox adds Perplexity's AI answer engine as a new search option | TechCrunch

    Jump

  • Everyone already had the choice to use this before. You can visit any site with a search box, and add that site as a search engine to Firefox.

    This is forcing it down people's throats.

  • How do I prevent new antifeatures from being added? How do I even know about the new antifeatures as they are added? Does Mozilla publish an RSS feed of each antifeature like this that they add, that gives a quick explanation of how to undo it?

  • ICE Threatened to Shoot Ambulance Driver Picking Up Injured Portland Protester, Medics Say

    Jump

  • I think we're more at the point where they should be getting arrested by local cops. It says a lot that local cops are defending them instead.

    Saying "I will shoot you" is illegal, no matter who you are. It doesn't matter if they work for ICE, the FBI, the local police, or McDonalds; they should be arrested if they say that.

  • What ever happened to Nicole the fediverse chick?

    Jump

  • Maybe it was a phishing scheme to identify people's IP addresses based on where they loaded the image from. In that case, each person would only receive one message. Fortunately I use a proxy, so they got nothing.

  • Flock Safety and Texas Sheriff Claimed License Plate Search Was for a Missing Person. It Was an Abortion Investigation.

  • Qualcomm to Acquire Arduino—Accelerating Developers’ Access to its Leading Edge Computing and AI

    Jump

  • Qualcomm won't send you a datasheet unless you can promise an order of 100,000. Arduino has always been open specification, and this is totally incompatible with Qualcomm.

  • This is kinda how nuclear reactors are anyway. You can't just shut them down instantly. The fuel rods produce energy for a while after the control rods are inserted, so they have to have dummy loads for them. I think it's usually just an emergency water supply that they can boil off.

    I know some turbine systems have resistive loads that can be used to stop the turbine quickly in an emergency, but they are only meant to be used for an instant before they overheat.

  • Crunchyroll Faces Cancelation: Why Anime Fans Are Choosing Piracy After Latest Update

    Jump

  • I would never subscribe to Crunchyroll, because they use DRM.

  • Google Calls ICE Agents a Vulnerable Group, Removes ICE-Spotting App ‘Red Dot’

    Jump

  • Going into an apartment complex, arresting everyone there including children, including US citizens, without a warrant? That's illegal. But there's nothing you can do about it except sue them afterwards.

  • "Is that ham processed"

    Jump

  • Or maybe God likes it. Maybe God is thinking, "I wish I had thought to make something so horrific. This is art in its terribleness."

  • Atheism is not a religion because there's no organization or membership. Atheism is only a theology. If they went to atheist church, it would be a religion.

  • Hail Corporate!

    Jump

  • The GrapheneOS people. Everyone in their IRC unironically thinks Iphones are highly secure, in part BECAUSE they are proprietary. But they also don't tolerate any criticism of Google, especially if you criticize Google for being proprietary.

  • Des Moines Public Schools Superintendent Ian Roberts arrested by ICE, district says

    Jump

  • "This suspect was arrested in possession of a loaded weapon in a vehicle provided by Des Moines Public Schools after fleeing federal law enforcement. This should be a wake-up call for our communities to the great work that our officers are doing every day to remove public safety threats. How this illegal alien was hired without work authorization, a final order of removal, and a prior weapons charge is beyond comprehension and should alarm the parents of that school district."

    Having a handgun is not illegal in Iowa. No permit is required for concealed or open carry.

    The part about work authorization is a lie. This employee completed the I9 process. They were working legally in the US at the start of their employment, and there's no evidence to suggest that changed.

  • [Discussion] What are the visually-best anime you're seen?

    Jump

  • Promare is the most visually intense anime I've ever seen.

  • The Ubuntu experience:

    Jump

  • Usually it's this, but sometimes the Recaptcha doesn't even load (looks like an IP ban). I just submit the form, and then get an error message saying I must complete a Recaptcha, but there's no evidence in the page of any Recaptcha to fill out.

    I'm on a residential ISP. I've checked every IP address reputation system I can find, and see no problems (except from "Clean Talk", but they're so small that I doubt Google uses them).

    Also, I hate knowing that I'm doing unpaid labor to help train an AI that will make the world a worse place.

  • The Ubuntu experience:

    Jump

  • I can't make an account, because I can't complete a Recaptcha. Google Recaptcha is used on every ubuntu.com signin page. (This means I also can't submit bug reports.)

  • Have you tried self-hosting your own email recently?

    Jump

  • I have self hosted my email since 2006. I gave up on self hosting outgoing mail in 2021, but I still keep the server up for incoming mail, and still set up throwaway accounts on there.

    The hard part of hosting email is getting Google and Microsoft to accept outgoing mail. Tons of businesses that do not have visibly outlook .com or gmail .com addresses are still hosted by those servers.

    I had SPF, DKIM, and a static datacenter IP address with no reputation problems. I still couldn't get through to Microsoft, not even in people's junk mail directory, until they manually whitelisted my address. Microsoft didn't allow them to whitelist a whole domain. Google was a little easier, but they added new demands monthly.

    In 2025, I can't get reliable delivery to gmail .com addresses even sending from a hotmail .com address in the outlook .com web interface.
