  • DHS Hunts Down 67-Year-Old U.S. Citizen Who Criticized Them in Gmail

  • What redeemed the first 50 years?

  • Have you ever distrohopped to find a distro for someone else?

    Jump

  • Just bring a USB and try a few distros that have a live environment; I think they pretty much all do.

  • No that sounds like a huge pain in the ass and I've never met someone that wanted to switch to Linux and wait a few days or more for a recommendation

  • Ah, yes. A broken clock.

    Jump

  • This is talking about windows made of glass, not an operating system.

  • Do you use Arch btw? Best Arch distro?

    Jump

  • The only Arch distros I know that are solid are Arch itself, Steam OS, and Cachy OS. The latter 2 have meaningful optimizations for their intended use which is really the only excuse for a new derivative IMO besides things like different release schedules.

  • Satya Nadella insists people are using Microsoft’s Copilot AI a lot

    Jump

  • Yeah cause when I instinctively click the Microsoft learn link below the Azure error it takes me to copilot instead of documentation.

  • Bruce Springsteen releases anti-ICE protest song 'Streets of Minneapolis'

  • Those people are not told anything otherwise and have no convenient access to alternative view points or reason to seek them out. There's a non-zero chance they'd gain an understanding and legitimately risk being outed from the social groups they've known their whole life. Visit small town southern USA and you'll see what I mean. Many republicans are, very sweet people that truly mean well. They're involved in their community and probably don't even have cable; they just receive local news over the air. This is probably part of the issue You're not going to see clips of these people, though, you'll only the see the occasional racist from a modern sundown town that will get a rise out of you, just like they only see that Pretti was armed to the teeth with malicious intent. Stuff like that always gets the most attention, even in the fediverse.

    I'm not sure what the fix is, but demonizing these people that are unknowingly the voting engine enabling this when they truly believe they're in the right will only exacerbate the issue IMO. They're victims of the same system we are, they're just steering the ship in the direction they think is right instead of rowing.

    I think this song serves to pull the blindfold down a bit and place blame on the government committing the violence in a way that doesn't vilify the ordinary people that were fooled by a professional fraud. It may be the only way people some people get an outside perspective without active effort, and at a community level instead of an individual level. This is important in reducing the social risk.

  • Those both require some level of awareness. A sing literally named after modern events is pretty clear cut imo. The dumbest kid I knew in HS could figure it out

  • The same moron that wants 3d printer manufacturers to come up with a way to detect the printing of gun parts? Half the receivers for guns you can print are boxes

  • I am not your lawyer and this is not legal advice for you or anyone who reads this.

    Nextcloud encrypts data e2e, so your point there is misguided and not really relevant. You can't be compelled to provide a password/decryption key as long as it doesn't exist as physical evidence. This is why lawyers advise clients to use a PIN instead of face ID or fingerprints; biometrics, like all physical evidence, can be subpoenad.

    Self hosting services like matrix or email is a bad idea if you don't really understand what you're doing, like many other things. If you keep you stuff updated and are intelligent in how you structure your network there's not really anymore risk here than paying someone else to host it. If you keep you stack simple and follow best practices, code and configurations written by industry experts do most of the heavy lifting.

  • Rockstar still hasn't offered a convincing reason for firing over 30 GTA 6 developers

    Jump

  • I've cut down on that by only giving it tasks that are reviewed automatically.

    "Spit this into a json"

    It gives me the code, I continue with my program knowing exactly what is where in the json and if I get a parsing error or something I know exactly where to look. TBH, though, for things like that I must have an error rate lower than 5%

    Ask it to configure a reverse proxy for a cors sensitive application, though, and I think I'd rather die

    Jump

  • Yeah. AI 100% makes me more productive and by a good bit. I used it to write a section of code today to export all the information my program gathers about a system to a json file. Woulda taken me 20 minutes but chatgpt did it in seconds.

    It also, in the same snippet, introduced a breaking change I didn't ask for in the original code. I only copied the json part; I just happened to notice the change in the code it wrong. It added a fork bomb lol

  • Do you write code?

  • I've never been in a situation where me having a gun would have made things bettter.

    Jump

  • So usually you'd shoot the dog as it's coming to attack you. A benefit of a gun is that it's a ranged weapon.

    How would pepper spray be more useful than a gun? As someone that's been charged by an animal on a hike, the noise (which doesn't require effective aim like pepper spray) is enough by itself.

    Wild dogs don't simply show up out of nowhere and start attacking

    They do, actually, that's how pack animals hunt from the perspective of prey.
