  • 57 percent say Trump more responsible for economy than Biden: Poll

  • Much like "blood is thicker than water", the saying "facts don't care about your feelings" is misleadingly taken out of context from a larger quote. The actual saying is,

    "Facts don't care about your feelings, and neither do I. In fact, I don't care about your facts, either. Fuck your facts, and fuck your feelings. My feelings tell me that I'm right and that's a fact."

  • Linux Kernel Rust Code Sees Its First CVE Vulnerability

    Jump

  • How's the weather up there, on your high horse?

    Rust wasn't meant to be the be-all, end-all solution to safety and soundness; it's meant to be better than the alternatives, confining potential memory safety issues to explicitly-annotated unsafe blocks.

    But, hey. That's okay. With that kind of gloating attitude, I'm sure your code is 100% safe and vulnerability free, too. Just remind me to never step foot anywhere near an industrial system or operating system using it.

  • Microsoft Edge Pushes an "All in One Browser" Message on Chrome’s Download Page

    Jump

  • If you have to pick between two monopolistic corporations, using both of them but giving each a little less of your data and attention is a way to mitigate the risks and damage.

    If Microsoft can harvest data on how I use my computer, I can at least make it a bit harder for them to harvest my browsing habits too by not voluntarily giving them browser telemetry on top of that.

  • Programming...

    Jump

  • Well, now that's just inaccurate. The hundredth-time programmer isn't going to use a rake; the hundredth-time programmer is going to use a tool::basic_tool<tool::manual_operator<species::human_t>,tool::handle_type::wood,tool::pronged<5>>.

  • There's plenty:

    • Not supporting monopolistic practices.
    • User preferences.
    • Diversifying your software so you don't get trapped in an ecosystem.
    • Not having Copilot stuffed down your throat.
    • User preferences.
    • Making it possible to rip Edge out of Windows for the purpose of debloating.

  • It doesn't work like that. They use the self-reported user agent from the web browser that is requesting the page.

  • Pam Bondi wants the government to create cash bounties for turning in trans equality activists - LGBTQ Nation

    Jump

  • or that you'd get to enjoy your split of the initial bounty.

    You say that like either of them will get that initial bounty. It's going to be the same-old shit as tip lines, with some clause like "your tip must directly lead to a conviction to qualify" that's just vague enough for them to claim that the deciding factor was their own work and not the tip.

  • The devs should add a human-inspired character to the game, give it a shirt vaguely resembling the PETA lego, and make it have the worst stats out of all the characters

    If there's ever an opportunity for someone to copy Edmund McMillen with how he made fun of PETA with their Tofu Boy parody, it would be this.

  • What the Trump admin put the country into isn't a golden age, but instead something more akin to a repeat of the Gilded Age, with its rampant political corruption and extreme wealth disparity. The joke is that he meant to say "Gilded Age"—which is the more accurate comparison—but is so out of it that he instead said "Golden Age".

  • Perfectly sane behavior.

  • You are 100% correct.

  • It's going to be funny watching, though. Even Elon can't manage to keep his self-declared "Mecha Hitler" AI from deviating from its instructions to push far-right ideas and talking points.

  • The phoronix comment section is a garden of rationality and level-headed thinking in comparison.

    Any time Rust is brought up in Phoronix, half of the comments are bad-faith idiots making strawmen and whataboutism arguments amounting to "skill issue, C is 300% safe and nobody needs better" and thinly-veiled contrarian antagonism against Rust because it's popular.

    A comment section worse than that? Impressive.
