Once again this will of course run on the same premise of "guilty until proven innocent" from the Online Safety Act. Children's safety is one thing, but forcing adults to give away private details to unknown age verification entities to simply use the devices they already paid for is an absurd proposition.

Is this post AI-written? The repeated lists with highlighted key points, the "it's not just [x], but [y]" and "no [a] just [b]" scream LLM to me. It would be good to know how much of this post and this project was human-built.

I do feel there's far too much of a focus on instantaneous response in today's world, both at work and in personal life. If something I can give you is truly preventing you from moving forward then that's fair enough, but otherwise send emails, don't rush the replies, and let people plan their own time.

Interesting, but it strikes me as a slightly odd choice to host a status page for GitHub on GitHub Pages.

Looks like it's going up and down intermittently, maybe something is only half-rolled-out.

Ironically, DownDetector seems to be down because it protects its site with Cloudflare Turnstile... which is also down!

I must have used nano for years at this point, and I'm shocked to find out how customisable nano actually is! I tend to use micro[0] on most of my systems now just because it comes with really lovely defaults and keybindings that are a bit more familiar, but this might make me take a second look at nano in future.

Yes, their units come with a HDMI out, and you can connect them up to install onto them like any other server - but if you ever want the (admittedly very, very good) factory software back on them I'd recommend imaging the internal storage first as I couldn't find a way to get their OS installed back afterwards.

embedding i can understand due to lost revenue, but i really don't understand how linking to articles can possibly be anything but a boon for news outlets. how do news sites think people discover their content in the first place?! i don't know anyone of my generation who still subscribes to a single news outlet for their news.
