Because it’s an easy filter to apply. It’s a pretty bad filter, but it cuts down the pile of candidates, making the next step easier. Everyone knows it doesn’t do a good job of only letting the best candidates through, but that’s not the point.

Does anyone actually like websites that mess with scrolling like that?
My response to one person was “If you couldn’t take the time to write it, what makes you think I’m going to take the time to read it.”
The creator of this image is Julia Evans. She’s awesome. She’s also really active on Mastodon @b0rk@jvns.ca and has a bot that posts a bunch of images similar to this one @b0rk_reruns@jvns.ca. She also sells bigger, more in-depth zines at wizardzines.com. I don’t know her personally, just think she’s great. Both of those mastodon accounts are worth following IMO.


For some reason, the use of bonfire in that text really bugs me. Bonfires are great. People gather around bonfires and generally have a great time.


Apparently there are a lot of ways to shutdown. halt is my preference from the command line.


My recommendtation is don’t play Factorio. I picked it up a couple months ago and basically haven’t stopped playing. It’s stolen all of my free time. Don’t do it.


So you’re saying it’s basically USB? A camera can be plugged into a USB socket, should we be scared of them?
If your city council wants to turn your city into a surveillance state, they’ll do it regardless of which technology enables it. Pay attention to local politics, elect people opposed to surveillance and those who would support laws preventing it. Don’t get paranoid about open standards that make your city more efficient.


Dead prisoners make poor slaves.


My interpretation is that it can go from no output up to 1.2GW in milliseconds. Do most big batteries take more time to ramp up to high output?
Mini Settlers looks like my jam, I’d love that if it’s available. Thank you.


I have both. My main gripe with Jellyfin is the the Google TV app. It doesn’t seem to have an easily accessible skip 30 or jump to next chapter option. If that was improved, I might be ready to ditch Plex.
If I like having a web UI means you can do without it, git doesn’t require anything fancy. I just have my git repos on my server and push/pull from my workstations over SSH. It doesn’t require anything but git & SSH on the server. You can even collaborate with others by giving them a locked down account that can’t do anything other then interact with the git repo.
This approach certainly isn’t for everyone. The web UI can be super handy, but if you just want your own self-hosted git server, keep it simple.

You could probably install a handler for the event that’s triggered when the power button is pressed. Most OSes do that and pop up a graceful shutdown options window. Most hardware will have a hard shutdown option when you hold the power button for a few seconds. You would probably have to overwrite the BIOS or something at that level to prevent that way out.
The real life hack is having a crappy low powered microwave so you don’t even have to set it to half power.


They’re not even really covering their asses. They don’t make an OS, they make a small but important art of many distros. They’re providing a clean, standardized way for Linux distros from RedHat to Ageless to comply with the law if they choose to. Some distros will comply with the law to the letter, others will not comply out of spite. At least the ones that comply will do it in a standard way.


Yup. Putin couldn’t have planned it better himself.
Unless… no, it couldn’t be… but that would mean… oh shit.


This is hilarious. I work on translation software and know exactly what’s wrong. They’ve selected a spanish voice, but not translated the content to spanish. I was playing around with these settings in our software and produced exactly this result.
The [Privacy Invasive Software] is actually “Frontier AI Models”. Why was the change in the headline necessary?
