It’s ok, they’re well known to go against useful advice anyway.

Peaceful protest against law enforcement snatching people in the street without any form of justification and sending them to death camp abroad does not work much either.

Here’s a plan : leave the engineers do their work, stop interfering with innovation, and just shut the fuck up. Not sure it would save tesla, but it would get a fighting chance.

Firefox, the software mainly driven by Mozilla, which is heavily investing in AI and ads ventures? That Firefox?

But, maybe “it will be different this time”, I guess.

As someone outside the US, I was told that people were very keen on keeping lots of guns to react in case the government tried to pull this kind of shit. When’s the part where they react?

I’m sarcastic; I know why it isn’t happening, and realistically it would be a terrible thing, but, you know, we’re living in the weirdest time.

also the “GUI” for debuggers on Linux aee pretty much just separate terminals for gdb, and often I can’t just jank my way out with printf() from various issues

And that is an issue because…?

I hope she’s not sent to a death camp before a court have a chance to say anything, because that’s also a thing that can happen.

The “private” chatroom from a while ago seems to indicate that, indeed, they believe their own shit. It would be worrying to have these people in position of great power, wouldn’t it?

The cases we hear about? Sure. The others… who knows how many cases happened without media attention for each ones that gets some attention.

Jack Dorsey hasn’t been around for a long time.

Sounds like an upside.

something buzzing on my wrist all the time would drive me batty

It’s the same when it’s in your pocket. I’d say the issue is not that it buzz all the time on your wrist, but that it buzz all the time. I disabled most notifications, except for a selection of people and apps. When I get a notification, it is usually important enough that I should check it. Everything else (including non-emergency work stuff) is checked on my own accord, when I feel like it.

Having the notifications pop on my wrist, with that system, does not feel like a shackle more than a phone constantly turning its screen on to tell you you have unread whatever.

Is it a crisis when it’s been that way from before the beginning.

It’s interesting. As “regular” people, years ago, we already had this mindset of only having disposable electronics to visit the US, and the situation wasn’t as dire as today. I wonder how much of this is actual news.

So, someone plastering boobs on his truck is a missile target, but a musky orange tanking the world economy for a pump and dump isn’t?

Disable automatic updates

Unless your offline don’t do that. Even on windows that’s the worst advice one can give.

Both sides, as in, the fair, balanced, and upbringing right view, and the evil menace to society that’s the destroying left sickos.

You know, being neutral and all that.

the existence of the thing remains unchanged

I fear they’re menacing the existence of people down the line, so there’s that.

Which is the biggest joke, them starting a “research” effort, already knowing the outcome, or knowing when it will be completed ahead of time?

Real hetero cis men only have sex with other real hetero cis men, preferably more than one at a time, to avoid lowering their male-ness. That’s the only way to keep our society alive, obviously.

Pfffrt. These jokers are such idiots.
