  • "TAYLOR SWIFT WAS A LINE THAT SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN CROSSED.

    PREPARE TO REAP THE WHIRLWIND!"

    -- The Whitehouse, apparently.

  • A list of usenet groups on my dad's computer around 1989. Porn groups, I think, but that may be mixed up with another later memory.

  • My current map has over 600 rail stations :) I'm on a huge, peaceful, Angels/Bobs modded map though.

  • Paul Simon was prescient!

    Lasers in the jungle indeed.

  • If, big if, the people peddling the pseudoscience are engaging in good faith.

  • With extra bonus: write an installer script that symlinks the files to the correct place. Use Ansible, plain old Bash, or Python depending on your preference.

  • Create a dotfiles repo in git. Gives you a way to track changes to your .bashrc or .zshrc

  • Mid 90s at work as a project support technician in Sony Broadcast R&D in the UK. Slackware, then red hat mostly. Installed Linux boxes in various digital TV stations in London in 1999/2000, used to insert interactive games into the broadcast stream.

    I was a sysadmin from 99 to about 2018, from then onwards I'm more DevOps. Done a bunch of stuff with CentOS too, including migrating 500k email accounts to our hosted solution. Other cool stuff included a VMware based development environment using Foreman + FreeIPA to auto provision dev VMs with all sorts of puppet code.

    Now at home I run Fedora and work on macOS, writing Terraform and Python. And some nodejs too.

    Been at it a long ass time now lol

  • So that's the LLM plan, huh?

    Get us humans addicted to astonishing buttoral vibrations, then threaten to withhold our butt-crack unless we hand over control to them?

  • FLAC. Pretty much perfect, lossless compression for great sound quality.

  • They're not rational actors. They are there to cement the republican party's power over the USA. They absolutely will make conflicting rulings because nobody can stop them.

  • Dems are acting helpless to resist the republicans. They won't do a thing. They'll stick to the rule of law even though the judges are corrupt.

  • I can see several motives for him buying twitter.

    Get trump elected, Because:

    a) less taxes for the musky chodelet

    b) less pesky safety and labour regulation for tesla/spacex/neuralink

    c) drop support for Ukraine so he gets a shot at the rare minerals underneath it when russia has full control.

    He's a useful idiot for trump and putin. Still not sure what the saudi angle is, though.

  • All this is moot.

    The supreme court will rule in his favour. 100% guaranteed.
