Digital information can be copied indefinitely. Every copy can be perfect, no degradation. It can be searched, have embedded cross-references and sent around the world in seconds. Books suck as a medium in comparison, and that’s just for text.

I dread to find out what the new thing will be that will distract everyone from the actual problems. Brain-computer-interfaces?


Nothing wrong with data centers or information in digital formats, plenty of evil has been done using paper and ink as well. Fetishizing print makes no sense to me as a response to shitty practices.
I feel like I’m going insane with this stuff, is there really no better terminology? Because one huge factor with how people look is their general build, like how broad their shoulders are, for example. That, to me, looks like the biggest difference between the illustrations.


what personal gain is there to be had?
The satisfaction of being “on the good side” and “sticking it to the man” with righteous outrage, as usual with these things. I fucking hate AI, but trying to tear down Linus (and the rest of the Kernel team) over them trying to see if it makes sense to use is silly. They aren’t planning to drop their rigorous QA or to accept code the submitter can’t explain/maintain. Ethics are a concern, but since the end result will be FOSS I personally don’t care as much either (YMMV).
I’m also really interested in hearing how this will go for them and what policies they will ultimately implement. I expect them to do this properly, which then means that everyone can point to their implementation when confronted with vibe coding at work. And then the suits will decide that they’d rather just do it cheap & fast, fucking everything up yet again, but at least they will have been told so.
That does look more like a shitpost than something people who actually believe in that nonsense would put up.


Cool I guess, but still trying to make client-side cheat detection happen is so futile and stupid.


I’ve been trying to live more by the first one since I’ve realized how easy and safe negativity is. Just be a jerkass cynic and you’ll never have to actually try and change something for the better. You’ll still be disappointed and bitter in the end, of course. It guarantees the worst outcomes but at least you won’t be hurt from trying.
I don’t get it either. If you don’t have the skill to do something you can always pay someone. That doesn’t make you the one with the skill though. If they did it for free then you still aren’t the one doing the thing. You’re just an ideas person. That’s not a bad thing but it usually is the easy part of any creative endeavor.


54 entries in about 2 months on the blue site. Yeah, that isn’t a lot.
I’d have to ask, they weren’t mine. But part of the problem was that it’s either high latency and no mic or very low quality both ways, neither very usable for video conferencing. Was fine on Windows. I’m sure their Thinkpad’s shitty Mediatek Bluetooth module didn’t help either.
You still will run into issues with certain Bluetooth headphones on Linux because they either need proprietary codecs that just aren’t available or fall back to really shitty ones. Not Linux’ fault, but users will only see (or hear) that it doesn’t work properly.


There’s room for at least three more rows of flags, then it’ll look like those AI slop pictures of trucks on Zuckbook that other bots post AMEN under.


I’ve only learned to drive fairly recently so I still remember getting to the point where I’m sort of comfortable with manual shifting. There’s two ways of doing it (that I know of). The simple way: Put it in first gear, then very slowly let the clutch go, don’t touch any other pedal. You’ll find some point where it engages and the car starts creeping forward. A bit further an you’re out of the danger zone and can drive normally. Took me a bunch of tries but I’m reasonably fast with it now without fear of stalling the engine.
The other one is mostly the same idea, but you start accelerating pretty much right when it’s engaging, without really waiting for creep happening. I’ve actually found that easier on some cars, but it’s also a great way of creating interesting noises.

This coming from someone with what looks like the Chinese flag in their name is… interesting.
I just don’t believe what he’s writing, his whole career is built on lies and the other prison tweets seem like bullshit as well.


It, uh, like, can reserve a table for you in some restaurant? Maybe?
You know what they say, all busses go to Rhome


So-called AI partly relies on random outcomes, so no, it might not do what you tell it to do. Which is part of why it sucks so much.
I’m not even going to argue with this, nice trolling.
