I almost feel people are being willfully blind to what the comment actually said.

Not ICE admins.

Admins who are dealing with shipping/customs. That is not ICE, it doesn't relate to ICE, and its important.

Article states else is archiac English but later says someone called it ignorantly incorrect English and suggested using "or".

Ive always assumed it was effectively "otherwise" but shortened to "or else" -> "else".

Given the alternative to use "or" as the first pushback I feel that acts as confirmation. I prefer else because "or" has implications in boolean and bitwise logic that else doesn't.

Unhinged to think the bulk of the population can work remote on train rides with 0 demand. Dropping you from one frozen wasteland to another is not desirable.

Have you been to Siberia or Alaska? If you're not flying you're going to have a LONG drive once you get to either side.

Not that I necessarily agree with their rationale, but you're framing it differently.

> Lack of sustainability in hardware sales

Doesn't necessarily imply competitors will be eating market share, it can imply the market will shrink. e.g. data center commitments and AI dries up. Or, it can imply hardware development will slow or become "good enough" and slow sales of latest and greatest.

Ah you're right, my brain totally skipped over that sentence.

I intend to try this out later in the week, but are you aware ncspot exists?

I've been using it for a few years now and it solves similar issues, using librespot as well. Never had an issue with rate limiting and such. I do have issues where Spotify breaks the client all the time, which I'd imagine this suffers from as well.

Quoting a Kai Lentit video as Dario Amodei changing his mind on regulation is peak slop.

Cool idea, I guess, but its just more slop to track the slop.

Google maps makes money through its API as well as accepting sponsored results to appear before correct results.

I'd agree you have a choice with 3rd party stores but they're working on limiting/killing those tiny markets, already.

Or... Just buy indie games. They're usually better and not a law firm with a small games company attached.

Really is for the best.

XCancel is a nice QOL but sends the message that using Twitter is fine. The more people that give up at the login screen the better.

Well I knew someone who did this ritual and they would send black photos of their leg so close to the camera. So I'd imagine nothing and its classic number go up social media.

What's going on in mechanical? Given this is based on the show that's painfully wrong. The generator seems to be in the wrong place AND the drill is upside down and an alien shuttle.

The scale of the silo is pretty cool to see, though.

Or when slop wastes everyone's time with nearly every submission, which is now.

In a linked article it said something like 77% of cases were deliberate consumption of mad honey for thereputic qualities.

Popping into a TUI from an existing terminal session to quickly do something without lifting my hand is the only reason I use and prefer a TUI.

If I have to open a browser which has, frankly mediocre, kb nav, then I'd rather it just be a GUI.

I guess I'm a browser detractor, though, because unless its a webserver used for quick configs then I dread using them.
