Jensen does a uninterrupted PR presentation while Joe nods and agrees with him.

I'm hearing this sentiment EVERYWHERE. This latest version of the OS on desktop and mobile, is aesthetically a disaster. Users requested none of this glass stupidity, they hate it, and there is no way to turn it off. Between that and the CEO gifting a participation trophy to our authoritarian felon "adjudicated s-assaulter" president, most people I know with a conscience are pretty much done with the platform and looking forward to the next opportunity to bail.

Man, if only there were some extremely wealthy companies, like the wealthiest companies in the world, that had a vested interest in "freeing" Javascript that could donate a measley $200k...

I'm stuck on the first step of the "Getting Started" guide.

1. I've downloaded helloworld.zip to my local computer, I think. 2. I open the filer.app.js by clicking the link on the webpage. This open a 90s.dev instance right on the page. 3. Then i'm supposed to mount helloworld/app as app and click it, so i click the mount button, it asks for the drive name, hi put in helloworld/app and click mount but nothing happens.

I must be missing how you're supposed to get helloworld.zip into the 90s.dev instance... how do you upload it into the instance?

Its really challenging to think of the positive, constructive uses for this technology without thiking of the myriad, life and societal effecting uses for this. Just interpersonally the use of this technology is heavily weighted towards destruction and deception. I don't know where this ends or where researchers who release this technology think this will go, but I can't imagine its going anywhere good for all of us.

Boot died, sadly. There was some talk of a Boot 3.0 but it never materialized. I think deps.edn took all the steam out of it. Duplicated a lot of functionality and none of the esoteric-ness.

Been trying to verify my phone number on my personal account for literally years. Every few months I give it a shot and it’s always the same. The fact that I used my phone number on my work account prevents me from verifying my personal account.

If Discord thinks I’m going to purchase a second phone line to verify my Discord account they’re insane.

Janet vs Babashka vs Fennel - anyone have thoughts?

Do these children's family members, their teachers and school administrators get any consideration? They can still die from the covid infections they catch while interacting with students, correct? Is this news to people?

Searching for Laura Fagan brings up all kinds of other silliness. Her links are misleading when you go to the source if they're not straight up opinion pieces from other kooks. This lady seems like a pro-covid Karen in all the worst ways.

If you're transfering to/from spotify then yes. You have to have a Spotify account but yes, I have a free one.
