“Joke’s on you Satan, I’ve decided to pivot to immutable OS evangelism.”

Ideally it’d be a check that comes close to what they saved from no longer hosting caches themselves.

I was thinking pressing it turns everything to shit, but that works too. I’d also accept, completely misunderstood by future generations.

My only real hope out of this is that that copilot button on keyboards becomes the 486 turbo button of our time.

Quick, someone homebrew a D&D Myconid/Warforged hybrid.

We can’t make money paying for “AI”, going to theaters, or paying for streaming services.

So I guess everybody gets a piracy!

Yeah, I’m hoping to get at why. Drop-shipped disposables took over Juul’s market in the US and then grew it by about 600%. It was so dramatic (in a business sense) that it’s caused ripples in US and UK trade policy, and I just assumed that blitz was happening everywhere.

Out of curiosity, what do you think Berlin’s secret is in this regard? Like, do people naturally not litter e-waste, or are there easier recycling options, import restrictions, or enforced litter laws?

I made the mistake of asking github copilot about a namespacing issue I was having today. It suggest a course of action that didn’t pan out but was at least semi-sensical but the accompanying example code did the opposite of what it had said. It read like it gave me the text of a stackoverflow accepted answer and then the code from the question.

Never trust Condé Nast to do the right by its consumers. That’s a tale decades old at this point.

The power of suggestion has turned the f in profanity into a tiny penguin facing away from me.

Don’t forget the tube trains that the world has known to be a scam for over a century. But at least he was correct when he said Starship would be sending people to Mars in 2022 and 2024, that the cybertruck would work as a boat, that model 3s would appreciate rather than depreciate, that solar roof tiles would replace normal solar panels by 2020, that the tunnels under Vegas would use high speed sleds, that Falcon 9 can be reconditioned for flight faster than the space shuttle, that a $30k Tesla roaster was released in 2017, and Twitter hasn’t become an (even more) hate filled echo chamber.

Best ad for piracy in a while. It not only lets you consume media how ever you’d like it also preserves your ability to be compensated for damages.

Its nice to see what my own version of hell is going to be like.

Public only storage is a dealbreaker for me.

Sort of like how excited Wendy’s was to offer surge pricing, until 2 days later when they suddenly had “no plans to ever implement surge pricing, what’re yall talkin’ 'bout?”

Fusion360 is the only software I use that I cannot get running on Linux. So my wife’s last macbook now lives to play Tidal in our garage and run NoMachine so I can remote into it for Fusion.

Hopefully DeGoogleing will go a bit like the cable “Cord Cutters” did in terms of headlines over time:

1. Is cutting cable feasible?
2. Some are are finding solutions to lower their cable bills.
3. Industry denies cord cutters are impacting profit.
4. Providers cling to sports broadcasts as a way to short-circut cord cutters.
5. Are young people the “never-cable” generation?
6. Here’s where to watch the Olympics online.

Of course, streaming is worse than cable now… so lets learn from that.

It’s gotten to the point that I buy games without looking them up first. I’ve been running Linux as my daily driver for over a decade, and buying a game used to take research. Is there a native version (probably not but it happens once in a while)? What it scoring on ProtonDB? What have the Lutris folks figured out?

Now I just buy the game and play it. Granted I don’t tend to play competitive multiplayer games so I don’t run into cheat prevention system nightmares.
