Ran nala after seeing this post and got a libc update on Debian myself

I'm sure most of us are old enough to remember when citing directly from wikipedia was seen as stupid and in poor taste because 'anyone could edit the articles'.

It's likely still premature to fully trust in definitions from LLMs, but it's worth noting that AFAIK, basically every LLM is trained off of wikipedia articles because the data is free, easily accessible and contains the answers to lots of random human questions

What surprised me was the amount of Android users. I guess self-hosters are predisposed to tinkering in general perhaps?

Paywalled

7 years support for (new & future) Pixels & 10 years of support for Chromebooks. WATTBA

I agree re: malicious compliance. Also leading w/ the web price knowing that the majority of their base uses mobile devices to connect

Come on over to Linux yall, the water's open-source vibes are fine

Random and sad

It feels like every other post on privacy and technology is someone pushing the (paid) search engine Kagi nowadays...

Yeah I think this.

You can't even make deals w/ him anymore because he won't abide by them. On top of that, he has to bend to the most fringe aspects of his party to stay in power so it appers that he's reaching the same conclusions (impeachment, reneging on his words, etc) as a more conservative speaker, w/ just the semblance of moderate leanings

Didn't we see similar snap memes yesterday and the day before?

I use it. It's great for seeing your progress of reading a book over time. I update the # of pages I read for every book and the dates show me my pace.

I decided to create a few threads after a few months hiatus and was surprised by the levels of engagement. I think the audience is hungry for content and that more people need to take the plunge and start threads.

With that said, going to /all instead of /subscribed is largely frustrating since the most frequent posts are just memes and inside jokes

TBH, the fish tld is kinda lame, and I say this as a firefish user. But yeah, here are my $0.02:

gefilte.fish
wearethe.world
fishkey.world

Woof.

Degenerate vibes for sure.

There's a visual I didn't need this fine day

Good point when you frame it that way, but also worth acknowledging that relative to the alternatives, it is an uphill battle that most won't be bothered with. My experience involved reading this site + joining their discord + digging into Github for troubleshooting, which is not a viable option for 80% of users

It is worth noting that they updated their support to be 10 years moving forward, so I disagree with the eWaste sentiment. I agree that Linux as a permanent alternative isn't super easy, and I say that typing from a Chromebook running Debian 12.

This guy was selling classes on being a pedophile-stopper while most of these youtube pedo chaser operate in ways that don't lead to prosecution.

He stopped a 17 year old from talking to a 15-year-old, which isn't exactly making the world a better place
