Can’t argue with that, I was ADHD skimming. I will now curl up in ball in the corner and die of embarassment and cringe :(

Did you check the hyperlink? Because it is !techtakes@awful.systems levels of stupid. I can’t read

Specifically “Sam Altman or Elon Musk about the “existential risk” artificial general intelligence poses to humanity” which contains a hyperlink leading to an independent article titled “Elon Musk says AI one of the ‘biggest threats’ to humanity”, and is just as much unholy brainrot as one might expect.

Hello, I have downvoted your post!

Reasons include:

• stupid fucking clickbait title
• sharing information that was otherwise already obvious to everyone for the past 2 years
• quoting elon musk they’re actually denegrating elon and I can’t read lol

Very cool, I will keep self hosting instead of using corpoid “privacy” services that help convict climate activists

Russian/Chinese software contains spyware: 😡😡👿👿💢💢

very cool and based; I take it you’re a chroot fan?

Except the gold is actually poop and the shovels require burning several trees per dig

wonder what fraction of a fraction of a percent of their yearly profit they’ll be charged this time

Mouse and keyboard are my bread and butter, I don’t particularly enjoy gamepads, but the Steam Deck gets around this thanks to having touchpads and gyro, so I don’t mind using it when nothing else is available.

Not “snakeoil” per say; employers will care about your history of education: but as an aspiring computer engineer currently in CC looking to move to a university, I’ve learned exactly 0 useful things at community college. Outside of the piece of paper you get at the end, it’s all useless busywork, testing how much bullshit you can put up with. Everything useful I’ve learned in life has been for free, provided kindly by passionate communities. Hopefully this changes in university.

I think the value employers place in modern education in the United States is snakeoil, however.

systemd is good software and people should find proper reasons for disliking it for once instead of just following the hate train.

Are “breaking portability with non-linux unix systems (and even linux systems that don’t use systemd)” and “overly complex codebases inherently being more bug-prone and systemd having a poor security track record” good enough reasons for you?

• Closed software (and hardware if we count in house arm chips?) ecosystem is bad for security and privacy
• Apple is subject to ancap US corporate law, which means they can realistically do whatever they want with your data (and it would be a bad business decision not to) with no real punishments/business expenses if they’re caught
• Large number of users increases interest for state backdoors
• *BSD has mostly the same userland, is totally free, and open source

use relative paths (cd into the directory below your repository) and use tab completion, and you won’t have problems.

PostmarketOS, pinephone, using phosh (sxmo is good too, but no support for dvorak keyboard :( :( :( ). Very jank, but I would never go back to Google/Android (or derivatives) after tasting what could be. Might try to switch to Void Linux or base Alpine since PostmarketOS is shipping systemd by default next release (“optionally, with openrc still being supported”, but we all know openrc is being pushed to the side, especially since it needs recompilation to switch back). Hope to boot OpenBSD on it some day.

You’re saying this like Micro$hit isn’t just going to revert back to recall being opt-out (or non-removable) in a few weeks after the outrage dies down
