Dr Stone but for computers/software dev…

Linus teaches them all best practices and then takes a 2 week hiatus from kernel dev to write a tool that defeats the demon lord.

winterayars,

Don’t marry a cop.

winterayars,

Gotta build it as an orbital ring.

Disney is gouging customers with a near doubling of subscription costs. (sh.itjust.works)

Disney is raking its customers over the coals with a 75% price hike for their annual subscription (originally $80.) People wonder why piracy is on the rise.Multiple commenters are saying I’m off base about the 75% price increase. My payment less than a year ago was $79.99. Here’s the proof.

winterayars,

Good time to do outreach to your friends and neighbors :D

winterayars,

Climate change. Definitely climate change as there fourth. Unless you want to count it as the fifth, i guess.

Unless it goes in its own special category.

winterayars,

Yep it’s just a propaganda campaign.

In what world does a VPN need access to Camera and Bluetooth? (i.imgur.com)

I am fully aware of what vpn services to use and not. I am not using Express VPN, I am simply doing research for a master thesis, when I came across these results from Express VPN. If you have any ideas or corrections, please let me know why a VPN provider would need to have access to these permissions....

winterayars,

Camera could be taking pictures of QR codes to make it easier to set up a VPN.

Bluetooth could be integration with things like Yubikeys for authentication.

Dunno if that’s what they’re actually for, though.

winterayars,

What we see probably isn’t even the full image, either. They probably put more details and colors on it and stuff, that’s just the outline. How else do you teach your buddies about what bears look like?

winterayars,

I think they think he’s gay and that’s the real reason.

winterayars,

“Commandment of celibacy”???

I am pretty sure that’s not a thing? Like that’s not one of the big ten. I don’t remember Jesus saying anything about commanding it, though he said to accept it if you can. I do remember stuff about rich people, though. That may be relevant considering they’re spending $4mil to go after gay priests…

There’s a video about how the delayed choice experiment is compatible with existing quantum physics and doesn’t require further weirdness like retrocausality to explain.

winterayars,

It’s illegal in the US.

But uh, so is catching a fish with your bare hands in Kansas.

winterayars,

The US government at the time did not want to do any such thing. Project For A New American Century, the think tank most of the Bush administration officials came from, openly wrote about how they were hoping for a “new Pearl Harbor” they could use to take the US into war with Iraq. Later, President Bush got a memo about how Al Qaeda was going to attack the US mainland and he did nothing. Then 9/11 happened and the government lied the country into a war with Iraq. What part of this makes you think they were going to do anything about Al Qaeda (other than giving them more funds maybe)?

winterayars,

They’ve got a long road ahead of them to kill that many people but i admit the thought occurred to me as well. There does seem to be a ratio being followed here.

winterayars,

Would’ve been living in a better world. (Cue that one Al Gore alternate reality SNL skit.)

winterayars,

(They’re definitely not trying to do that either.)

winterayars,

This is the way.

winterayars,

It’s not an illusion, it’s a simulacrum. It’s a material copy of the real thing so he totally actually ate your food even though he totally didn’t need to.

winterayars,

Piracy is how i discover music, to a large extent. I see something i might like? I listen.

winterayars,

Wolves who are “pets*” are also absolutely manic in comparison to normal dogs. Our lifestyle just drives everything to mindless activity to get it out.

(*: A wolf is not a pet even when they are very cute)

winterayars,

Those are definitely the ones to bring to a goth event.

(Edit: The Korean ones are kf-94 fwiw.)

winterayars,

CIQ, Oracle, and Suse huh? One of these things is not like the other.

It’s a testament to how badly Red Hat fucked up that Oracle, of all companies, is getting good press out of this.

winterayars,

There’s a reason tech workers and college students in demanding degrees are all on Adderall (aka amphetamines).

winterayars,

Fixing things is hard and getting consensus on things is hard. Easier to get people to do something when the building is already on fire. However, in the end, it’s better to not light the place on fire just do you don’t have to talk to people.

I’m fine if we eat the rich, though.

winterayars,

I’ve seen that several times. I expected that’s where this post was going, nice to see that was wrong.
