There are a lot of well-meaning bots that bring posts here from other places, but they do more harm than good because we end up with a lot of low-quality posts that have been vetted by no one, and a low ratio of commenters/comments relative to a big flood of posts. So the result is a ton of posts with 0 or very few comments and low average quality.

If the only posts here were posts that someone decided was worth making, we’d have fewer, higher-quality posts, and more comments per post.

Also, with the quality of Twitter and Reddit deteriorating, it doesn’t help to import those shitty dying cultures here. We should be building new cultures.

Postgres is a more robust and better designed and developed product, also it’s not owned by fucking Oracle.

That’s a hard pass for me. I’d imagine the person who makes the decision about hiring you won’t even know if you’ve opted out because the data is gathered at the corporate level. But that’s just my guess.

Like so many others, you’ve mixed up general society with law enforcement. We defend the right for the Nazis to say their piece without being imprisoned. Running a business profiting from letting Nazis publish their speech is a choice, and not a necessary one. Using and supporting the social relevance of a social network that voluntarily publishes hate speech for profit is a choice, and not a necessary one.

Fuck off with this unhinged, unsupported rant. Prove it or stop posting it.

Dorsey is no longer involved with Bluesky.

I tried Jellyfin but I use the live TV section extensively and something about their implementation of the programming guide worked badly.

Short answer: No.

Long answer: No, and stop asking stupid questions.

I hate AI as much as anyone, but this article is shitty fearmongering. Buried at the end it admits there’s actually no price increase, there’s just a new tier with optional features.

A “classic” Office 365 subscription will be available at the old price if you really don’t want the AI — for now.

Now they rage against fungible tokens.

Ultimately each country makes the rules for domains under its top level, for those that are named for the country, like .af for Afghanistan. Everything about the instance is intact and can be moved to a different domain.

Going to take a guess that Apple realized VR isn’t happening this generation, didn’t want the embarrassment of canceling it, so they released it at such a high price point that only a relatively few rubes would buy it, so when they abandon it there won’t be enough people to complain and make bad press out of it.

Imagine thinking you need to be more online, not less.

Anyone can buy this data. It’s just a regular product. What would a warrant have to do with anything.

It’s entirely logical and definitional that what happens to a celebrity gets more attention than what happens to non celebrities. It could only be this way. You have fumbled whatever type of moral scolding this was supposed to be. Let’s just accept the world is imperfect and celebrate that the issue will get more attention now.

But they’re not profiting. Eventually they’ll have to stop throwing away their money speculatively.

So the silver lining to no energy breakthrough soon is they’ll eventually have to give up on this AI shit because they can’t make it run profitably.

This shit sucks

The sooner an AI article references Terminator the sooner you know not to take it seriously.
