I started having arguments online back on Fidonet and Usenet. I'm too tired to care now.

  • My elderly parents got the "your computer cannot be upgraded" and my somewhat tech-litterate mom asked me to move them to Linux.

    Microsoft should've realised at some point that the only thing most people need today is a computer that can run a web browser and connect to a printer.

  • It's not obvious what "HA" refers to. It could be either Habakkuk (HAB) or Hagai (HAG). However, since there's no Hagai III it has to be HAB.

    Habakkuk III:3

    God comes from Teman, And the Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah. His splendor covers the heavens, And the earth is full of His praise.

    Clearly trans ideology there.

  • Have a node up in the attic which is bridged to my wifi and into my Matrix server. Of course, in the event of a catastrophe the usage will be direct bluetooth connection from a phone instead.

    The range is impressive, my node connects to others several tens of kilometers away.

  • You're always responsible for the actions of those that you choose to represent you. Regardless of how stupid they may be.

  • I'm in Sweden. Human civilization is all good here.

  • Yeah I'm not super into "I've got mine, screw you!".

  • I made a funny.

  • On the contrary, we should normalize the concept of the greater family again. Having grandparents help with our young kids solves a lot of modern issues for a family where both parents work, and I will of course do everything to aid my elderly parents as they now age.

    We built a house for them on our property in preparation for this. When the time comes (soon), they won't need to rely on shitty gov workers.

  • In Sweden our tasty sugar drinks are "saft" (uncarbonated) and "läsk" (carbonated).

    The word ending "-igt" is used to describe that something "is like".

    "saftigt" means "mmm, juicy, good" "läskigt" means "scary"

  • You approve of a dictator blocking the populace from congregating?

  • What? No paracetamol in Germany? It's over the counter.

  • Three weeks ago (interesting timing), meta study:

    Our analyses using the Navigation Guide thus support evidence consistent with an association between acetaminophen exposure during pregnancy and increased incidence of NDDs. Appropriate and immediate steps should be taken to advise pregnant women to limit acetaminophen consumption to protect their offspring’s neurodevelopment.

  • Will Nextcloud run apps not marked as compatible with that version?

  • No the EU law does not require manufacturers to disallow unlocking the bootloader. Actually, it specifically says the law should NOT be used as an excuse to do that.

    The law requires high security when it comes to the radio (baseband) part of the phone - and that has always been a separate enclave anyway compared to the OS.

  • The differense in the Fediverse is that absolutely no instance admin here needs to show "user number up" to some owner. On the contrary, it costs actual money to run the instances so there's an actual incentive to just throw out bad actors as soon as they're identified.

  • All the hatred against LLMs really misses one of the huge and quite unexpected findings - like this article. These LLMs "function" very similar to human brains.

  • Have you heard about our lord and saviour Jesus Christ?
