Poor XMPP, no one will just let it die.

I think this is part of some effort to destroy the last of the public’s confidence in these institutions after their COVID handling fiasco. The health risks and elevated risks of dying is true, but in a couple studies were similar to cycling or walking on city streets, and nowhere near the risk from sedentary lifestyles and social isolation.

All he people I’ve known over the years with alcohol problems weren’t fretting over 5 ‘standard drinks’, they were drinking well over 15 drinks every single day. Also, they didn’t think they had a problem. Except with sleeping, a couple ounces for a nightcap, or shakes in the morning, a quick swig or so for that.

Someone has a drinking problem when they can’t stop. Doesn’t matter how much someone drinks in one sitting or even during some horrible week at work.

Obviously to upset fragile beings in the future that believe biology is defined by electrical connectors.

I present to you the IBM hemaphroditic connector!

True, I think I’ve played more Mass effect on my PS5 than PS5 games. I assume it is leading faster at least… not a good investment. I should have stuck with my PS4 Pro.

Not knowing about Incus (LXD). It’s a life changer. Would never run any service on bare metal again.

Using GenAI to develop my Terraform and Ansible playbooks is magical. Also, use it to document everything in beautiful HTML docs from the outputs. Amazing.

Then I hope the people responsible are turned in by their parents. Sad state of affairs.

No, but if there is an emergency results in a plane landing in the US everyone is deplaned, what happens next? Who knows anymore.

The article is clear, the market is reacting to Argentinians voting against Milei in mid-term elections, which also wasn’t in line with expectations. His policies are very popular with the market.

Argentina is a financial basket case from years of corruption and government overspending and printing money. I’m not surprised that the enthusiasm for his drastic fiscal restraint has waned quickly. There is no easy way out of these messes.

Tiktok has been under US gov’t control for a while and most of the reaction I’ve seen is on RedNote. Some people have figured out their Tiktok shares, saves and favourites are blackholed when viewed from a US account, but visible from a Canadian or Australian account. This is exactly how the CCP does it.

Im an occasional user, noticed that the Tiktok feed has even more fake AI posts.

With the announcement, deleted my account. What you save, share and like will be used against you by the US gov’t.

Toffifee. After eating the first layer, I immediately want to eat the second set underneath.

Would you believe Oracle OCI? They have an always free tier, as in you never pay. You need a valid regular credit card. At first I thought it was for a slow x86 instance, but it includes Arm hours equivalent to 4 cores, 24 GB RAM, 10TB of transfer a month, I think 200GB storage. Divide it up for an nginx reverse proxy in front of it, or HA Proxy if you are feeling ambitious.

Trump and Doge cuts have done such great harm to US government institutions, eliminating competent leadership for dipshit sycophants, that it is clear they are no longer capable of monitoring domestic terrorism. In 6 months of this insanity, America is already defenseless against a Groyper army that was probably dreamed up on 4chan.

FBI Patel looks like a scared kitten on meth. They had no idea this is coming and clearly clueless about any of the memes. They guessed Trans Antifa activist something rather down arrow down arrow.

It was actually mocking Kirk for being a sellout to proper right wing ideas. Full civil war between the extreme right and the pedophile supporters. Unsurprising, except how quickly this has spun out of control.

I’d say the cat is out of the bag now.

I’d never heard of this guy until yesterday. He is some social media influencer that believed in the 2nd amendment. Apparently MAGA people are losing their shit, Fox News commentator claims this is an act of war.

Social media bubbles are wild.

Consistency between devices. Android isn’t android, everyone mucks with it, especially Samsung.

TBF, Motorola is a bit misleading. Nothing against the product, (I love my RAZR), but they were basically diminished to a brand-name that is now owned by Lenovo.

Rebates shouldn’t be on vehicles, but on charging infrastructure. The current infrastructure is woefully inadequate, and the infrastructure will last many decades, a car lasts maybe 1 to 2 decades.
Electric charging being cheaper than fuel should be the primary financial incentive. HOV Lane access, and other benefits should be enough to bolster demand.
The subsidies on luxury vehicles, Tesla’s specifically, were a harmful policy mistake that have given idiots talking points that will be used years from now.

No one knows, but here is a click bait article headline for some ad impressions!
