Love it. I played so many of these games in the 80s. Makes me a nostalgic for a simpler time.

There are real risks with relying on a private company, owned by Elon Musk, as a channel for communications

Damn right. Time to fire up a mastodon instance.

I should have been more specific that this was a Pixel. Does your phone have a way to accomplish the same thing?

Agree. Did Google not kiss Trump's ass enough? Is that why they're still going after them?

On Android, hold the power button until the menu shows up, them choose "lockdown". The next unlock will require a PIN.

Rust has some big binaries due to static linkage, and the Rust coreutils gets around this Busybox-style, compiling everything into one binary that you hard link to. Pretty neat. The project is easy to build and mess with without installing if you're curious about it. And you could add the build dir to the front of your path if you want to try it out with low risk.

I noticed this on my web logs earlier. Couldn't believe how popular I was until I saw "AI" in the user agent string for 90% of the his.

Why would you give a machine money?

To be clear, you'd give the company that owns the machine money.

Just use the generation tools yourself and then you have the copyright.

Except that it sounds like no, you wouldn't by this court case, right?

it’s just worthless AI slop.

I agree. :)

I'm following 42 hashtags, a bunch of science, teaching, and programming stuff, mostly (I'm a CS instructor). But also things like #trains. :) And the state and city I live in.

I want to throw in a second good word for hashtags. I follow a tiny handful of people, almost entirely personal friends. But I follow a lot of hashtags. Because it typically is the content that I'm after as opposed to a particular person. If my favorite poster of weather information decides to post something about accounting, I don't really want to see that. Also following a hashtag gets you a lot more exposure to like-minded people than you would if you were trying to follow them all individually, and you see a lot more posts about things you enjoy.

That escalated quickly. Uh... "Bring manufacturing back to America!" Or something.

You gonna delete the equal time rule, too? Didn't think so.

Tricky case. You can pay someone to make a custom work you hold the copyright on. But you can't pay for a machine to do it if you want the copyright.

I have zero evidence Musk ordered the Tesla vandalism. Which, coincidentally, is exactly how surprised I'd be to find out he had.

They're working hard to make sure piracy provides the best experience.

The article and paper seem to be aimed at the set of people who hate pronouns intersected with the set of people who believe in anthropogenic climate change.

More like "I'm not paying for DRM books". If they want my money, they can sell a non-DRM book. I buy those all the time.

Is it DRM-free on bookshop?

How is chrome going to be funded if it's broken off?
