xilliah,

Literally all I had to do to make my phone have a usable performance again was to set the region to France, and the language to English. I should add that it was totally fine before an update.

xilliah,

Now imagine a rapist taking over your country.

xilliah,

Unfortunately I’m considering to put an end to a new friendship. It’s like every time I’m around her I trigger her and it becomes a drama. I’ve already tried to adjust again and again but I have to face that I’m just a hedgehog to her and we’re not compatible.

The thing is I love using sarcasm and making slight jabs at people, it’s like second nature to me. Honestly it’s really not that extreme and I’ve asked all my friends and they say they enioy it. But to her these are real personal attacks and enough cause to ruin our time together.

It sucks cuz we had some really good laughs together. But also I’m done with stepping on mines, even when I am careful.

xilliah,

Blender is amazing. Do you know Blender guru? Recommend.

Just bring the topic up lightly and give it space. And just enjoy the moment and getting a chance to look into someone else’s life!

xilliah,

I donut know?

xilliah,

Just keep communicating and be genuine

xilliah,

One time I went to this unit of a store and the lady was unfamiliar with werner herzog. Not even in their system.

🚴‍♀️At this point you must transform into a car 🚙

I’ve also wondered if it’s possible to somehow hook git into legislation. To track changes like how laws are amended and superseded and so on.

Law has a lot in common with software and is constantly being improved by a large number of people.

xilliah,

It’s an interesting debate isn’t it? Does AI transform something free into something that’s not? Or does it simply study the code?

xilliah,

Can you link it please? I’d like to inform myself.

Cryptographers Just Got Closer to Enabling Fully Private Internet Searches (www.wired.com)

" three researchers have crafted a long-sought version of private information retrieval and extended it to build a more general privacy strategy. The work, which received a Best Paper Award in June 2023 at the annual Symposium on Theory of Computing, topples a major theoretical barrier on the way to a truly private search."

xilliah,

Well perhaps a selection? You don’t need the data set for crotcheting or perl coding if that’s not up your alley.

xilliah,

Ah ok so we’re talking perfect safety here

On a tad bit related note I remember reading that it was common for people to be buried with all of their possessions and that women occasionally had hunting equipment buried with them.

I’m just adding it here because I feel it’s connected to the idea that eating lots of meat is naturally manly. Apparently it’s just an exaggerated fantasy that’s part of our own modern culture and the reality seems to be that we were effectively ‘flexitarians’ and that women to some extent hunted too.

Open to pedantic replies 😁

xilliah,

To add to the rest: A manager also stores the history. And it has a pass generator. And lots of quality of life things.

At the end of last year all I had was hope and patience. Through sheer luck and the kindness of complete strangers my living situation has finally stabilized.

The things that happened last year really did a number on me and now it takes time to recover once again. Sometimes I wonder if we’ll ever have a society where it is ok to be human.

Luckily I don’t drink or anything like that but it’s seemingly near impossible to get my arse into first gear to take care of the few responsibilities that I have.

Fortunately I’ve learned to take care of the basics like eating healthy, sleeping well, making friends, and knowing that through it all, even on the worst of days, that things will eventually improve. That it’s all worth it.

I just hope my client can find that final bit of patience, as I honestly don’t know what to tell them any more. I feel terrible about it, but also I want and need to work and so they’re kinda stuck with this situation too. All I can hope for is that when things start moving again that I can work multiple days per week. That would solve the issues for everyone involved.

Related song.

xilliah,

Don’t judge them they were still figuring things out.

The Irish government wants to pass a law that could see you or your loved ones jailed for possession of memes, cartoons or any content that could be deemed "hateful".

The Bill includes no definition of hate and is wide open to abuse by bad actors. Defend free speech – say no to this legislation, and any legislation of is kind… Anywhere!...

xilliah,

Also I’ve always felt that distribution is the problem, if you can call it that.

Privacy Practices in public registries for developers

Okay, it may sound like a personal issue, but I disagree with the privacy practices in developer tools. And I’m not talking about VSCode issue, but about other more elemental development tools. For example, the privacy policy of npmjs.com, pkg.go.dev (Google’s privacy policy lol), hub.docker.com, and these public registries...

xilliah, (edited )

Well slightly different topic but I have to accept that damn Google ‘privacy’ thing to be able to develop for the vr headset that I paid for. We really need stronger laws to handle these practices.

xilliah,

Well I’m a customer and I think it’s fine if the requests are legitimate. The question then of course is what is legitimate.

xilliah,

Well if anybody read my previous comment, I had a date a few weeks ago and scored an apartment. She allowed me to move in earlier, before she moved out. So we’re roommates now! And it’s a studio apartment so ya she’s an angel. Of course I immediately started doing all the chores and trying my best to cook the best meal for her.

To be honest I’m sad that she’s looking for a new place. I wouldn’t mind living with her. In fact I think I would really like it. It’s like we just click.

Anyway I woke up with the same smile I went to bed with. I was technically homeless and living in my office. It was damn cold. I am talking 13 degrees if you set the heating to 1000 euro a month, because electricity and war.

We used to heat it with wood and that was like 350 a month, but at least it was warm. It’s not allowed any more.

Well I’m just glad things are more stable now. It’s too much to explain but it was really bad. Now I can take care of the stuff that’s urgent and then hopefully I’ll be bored for a while. Then I’ll continue with my life work!

xilliah,

Well I’ve had a smartphone since 2012, just to try it. Honestly I don’t feel it has added quality to my life. Having specialized devices such as a camera, GPS, mp3 player and so on is actually more convenient and not more expensive. For example a GPS has a longer and more reliable battery life.
