Beyond idiocy.

I teared up at the PSP talk. I feel terrible that life requires a level of technology that not everyone is capable of affording and it doesn’t seem right.

Freaky Styley is their funk masterpiece. haha

Why are Americans allowed to invest in a business that would be illegal if based in the US? Why can they be patrons? Idgi

"Yes, the planet got destroyed. But for a beautiful moment in time we created a lot of value for shareholders.“

Companies are making decisions based on these things. It's mind-boggling.

I don't think the AI should have the ability to pretend it's something it's not. Claiming it's achieved some level of consciousness is just lying -- maybe that's another thing it should be prevented from doing.

I can't imagine any positive outcome from an interaction where the AI pretends it's not anything but a tool capable of spewing out vetted facts.

I really want all my media players to include this. Cheers doesn't look the same since my 27" CRT died, and watching it through Shader Glass reminds me a lot of the look of that old TV.

We did the same. Switching was a cinch honestly - the only thing that screwed me up was some dumb page that returned a bunch of nonsense I was supposed to do to my docker-compose.yml file to make it more compatible with podman-compose. I spent a couple hours trying to figure out why things weren't working, until I finally rolled back all the stupid suggested changes, and my app fired right up.

The only impactful difference I've noticed so far is that the company is moving to an artifact repository that requires authentication, and mounting secrets using --mount doesn't support the env= parameter -- that's really it.

I treat podman like I did docker all day long and it works great.

I’m always thrilled when someone posts something new about Stunts. I had such a good time with that game in college. :)

It ticks me off that bots no longer respect robots.txt files at all. The authors of these things are complete assholes. If you’re one of them, gfy.

It absolutely floors me that children are forced by law to attend school and they don't automatically get a hot meal. That's irresponsible.

It was really the first usable smartwatch in my mind.

My absolute favorite thing was that it gave developers the ability to create custom watch faces. I wrote a bunch of them and absolutely loved the dumb thing.
