Jon Ossoff for 2028
Jon Ossoff for 2028
The sides are definitely not the same. One side is a fascist, a rapist, and a felon; the other side has trouble being coherent after 6pm.
They’re not the same, and I know who I’m voting for (not the fascist). But damn do I wish we had some better choices.
Let’s say you write a novel. It’s really really good. But no one reads it because no one ever hears about it.
Later, I stumble upon your novel and recognize how great it is. Then I republish it verbatim, except with my name as the author. I am much better at business and marketing than you, so it goes viral. I receive millions in sales, am tapped to produce a movie version, and win a Pulitzer for it.
Is that fair? Or should you have some rights in all of this since it was your copy?
TL;DR - We can now control swappiness per cgroup instead of just globally. This is something that userspace oom killers will want to use.
Or surveillance.
It’s all “privacy, privacy, privacy” when it comes to private companies. But the EU themselves wants all of that data to create a surveillance state.
Not that the US government doesn’t pull the same shit, but it does feel less hypocritical when they do it, because they’re not even pretending to be concerned with privacy.
You don’t need to provide root access just because you used GPL code, you just have to follow the GPL.
Well, to follow version 3 of the GPL, you do actually need to provide effective root access.
Specifically, version 3 of the GPL adds language to prevent Tivoization.
It’s not enough to just provide the user with the code. The user is entitled to the freedom to modify that code and to use their modifications.
In other words, in addition to providing access to the source code, you must actually provide a mechanism to allow the user to change the code on the device.
The name “Tivoization” comes from the practice of the company TiVo, which sold set-top boxes based on GPL code, but employed DRM to prevent the user from applying custom patches. V3 of the GPL remedies this bug.
As an American looking in, Corbyn has always been the face of UK’s Labour Party.
Why was he ousted? The article says something about an antisemitism statement, but surely that’s not the whole of it.
I think we can Weekend at Bernie’s him until he passes. Then we get Kamala, which is not bad.
I think a lot of the federal government can run on its own as long as there are competent people in the cabinet.

I’m visiting with the fam for the 4th. My grandparents keep CNN on 24/7.
CNN has been running “Biden should step down” as their main lead, all week. Every show has at least one segment on it.
They’re saying stuff like “70% of democrat voters think he is not fit” or something like that (dunno what their polling data and methodology are though.)
I expect that these 24/7 news networks can apply a lot of pressure to drive a story like this.
Edit: I may have misquoted those polls. Which I think shows how bad CNN’s reporting is. They just said something very different came out of a Reuter’s poll.
For Zulip, I’ve only used it on the web. Apparently they have iOS, Android, Desktop, and Terminal clients.
For Matrix, there are many clients on all platforms, but none have ever stood out to me. Element is the official client, and it’s… fine I guess.
I love this, especially the criticism of the FSF.
For coms, Zulip seems OK. I would really like Matrix to take off, but I honestly don’t really like any of the clients.
Yes, thanks for the spelling correction.
Great photo. Actually, is this a photo?
8½ is a pretty surreal. Considered one of the most influential films of all time. One of the earliest examples of post-modernism in film.
Every scene in Ex Machina is basically a dialogue covering different arguments in the philosophy of AI. Plus a surreal dance scene.
I was blown away by mother! when I first saw it. But looking back on it, the allegory wasn’t exactly subtle.
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is a meta-modern masterpiece.
Tropic Thunder, as a meta commentary on comedy, is actually really good. Aside from the great comedy itself.
Maybe.
Linux won because it worked. Hurd was stuck in research and development hell. They never were able to catch up.
However, Linus’s kernel was more elaborate than GNU Hurd, so it was incorporated.
Quite the opposite.
GNU Hurd was a microkernel, using lots of cutting edge research, and necessitating a lot of additional complexity in userspace. This complexity also made it very difficult to get good performance.
Linux, on the other hand, was just a bog standard Unix monolithic kernel. Once they got a libc working on it, most existing Unix userspace, including the GNU userspace, was easy to port.
Linux won because it was simple, not elaborate.
Do Nerd Fonts use the Unicode private use area?
It seems not. It seems like they replace CJK characters instead.
The PUA seems like the right way to handle this.
Motorola has been in the tracker game since way before Air Tags.
I remember getting a Bluetooth tracker with my Moto X circa 2014. Back when Tile dominated the market.
In this example I would have committed both crimes.
It’s copyright infringement for me to republish and profit from your work without your consent (while that work is not in the public domain).
It’s plagiarism for me to pass that work off as my own.
So it was a bad example.
