It might be that bad. Most ‘damage’ (as publishers see it) comes from distribution, not the download itself. Depending on how they acquired the books, it might be not be much of a problem.

That’s not Linux, that is Tux… And you might be an open source furry. What are your thoughts about GNUs?

Just waiting for the first decision made because of AI hallucinations.

With this government? You might get disappeared to a black site because a LLM “decided” that you probably are a terrorist…

Oh yeah, I overlooked that detail.

What the hell? If they just asked ChatGPT it would have been much better:

• Repository: A folder of project files on the internet.

• Fork: Your own copy of that folder to make changes.

• Pull Request: A way to ask, “Can my changes go back into the original folder?”

I hope she finds the strength to leave the US and find a job and home outside of the US. The jobs in the USA are mostly exploitative - not surprising with the labor laws as weak as they are.

All programs can be written with on less line of code. All programs have at least one bug.

By the logical consequences of these axioms every program can be reduced to one line of code - that doesn’t work.

One day AI will get there.

How the hell are we supposed to install it without a Internet connection? I worked in a company that was so hard on security that only certified machines were allowed access to the net, so virtual machines were not allowed to access the LAN and therefore the Internet. Generally not a problem as we just used them to test software on different OS versions, so no Internet required.

This change disallows all offline installs. What is their gain? Are they that keen on our data or are they planning to use the connection to a Microsoft account for something even worse than just selling personal information? I could think of a few reasons and none are nice…

Tech could make our life easier, if only the fruits of increased efficiency would go towards us all instead of the few rich people at the top.

I would love to just use signal and nothing else, but I would loose contact to most of my friends and family.

I tried to convince them, without success.

Well it helps, but if you live under an oligarchy they will find ways to stop uncontrolled social media.

You have to address the root of the problem or you will ultimately fail as soon as you get big enough to be a problem.

Damn, you’re thirsty 😁 But as a chubby guy with a beard I thank you for making my day!

How are you doing wiggles eyebrows?

You, my friend, have to read up on super PACs

Bernie would have won (according to polls) if the DNC hadn’t sabotaged him at every turn. Too polarizing? No, just too left for the Democrats.

He always was for sale - he is just getting cheaper.
