But can you have a human right your blurb instead of foisting AI slop on us?

That’s a mighty nice field of study you have there. It would be a shame if something happened to it

I use a jigsaw to cut wood. It works pretty good. What’s the point of a table saw?

You folks are having fun with the idea, but, well, in 2026 there’s absolutely a viable market for this.

I can’t tell whether or not you know that what you’re objecting to is AI slop.

I’m in the process of switching from an iPhone to Graphene on a pixel 10 Pro. I can load apps from the web (disabled by default iirc), the local file system, a sandboxed instance of the Play store, Obtainium, f-droid, wherever. Took some ge

Oh, wow. I loved these games when they were new. May need to find a modern HOTAS setup and immerse myself in these.

And you don’t find that Claude cheerfully ignores the content of your CLAUDE.md and does whatever the fuck it wants instead? I caught it ignoring the prompt’s details, so added “include the output of the Unix ‘date’ command with each respon

Also, they seem to ignore auto mode, seizing on any reason to stop, and sometimes just stopping despite saying they’re proceeding with something. Basically, ongoing enshittification.

I really enjoy this site and its community. But it’s time to let the community speak to itself and stop censoring these things.

Unless they come right back with a comparable implementation with a maverick/ranger type form factor, Ford is absolutely shot itself in the foot canceling the lightning. I’ve been Evie only for five years and have driven both the elect

PF is really nice. (Source: me. Cissp and a couple decades of professional experience with open source and proprietary firewalls). And if they are already using it on openbsd, it’s almost certainly an easier lift to move from one BSD PF imp

There’s also companies which seemed to break their Web experience specifically to drive people into the app. Credit Karma hasn’t worked on a browser on mobile or desktop for me in years. But the app version always works. I guess it’s my fau

Canada would be insane to not beef up its military at this point. Mexico should, too.

I was all in on Tesla in 2019. Solar, powerwalls, model 3. Traded the car in a couple months ago. It was ok, as a car, but I hated what it had become synonymous with so it was worth the financial hit to give up a paid off car. Turns out the

If someone was hung up on only paying when they need care, the business model needs to support that would probably look a lot like an emergency room or urgent care facility. For me, I consider it an astonishingly good value paying $1200 a y

Direct primary care was a completely game-changing improvement in healthcare for me. $95/mo to basically subscribe to a local doctor. Covers most things other than tests or surgery or limb setting. But tests are often very discounted r

Agreed. Showing ads on TVs is beyond the pale. (Sorry, I just had to. In fact, thoug, I would be furious if my tv injected ads onto my source material)

Indeed- comment was intended to be on the openbsd release announcement. No idea how it ended up on this one.

Wow, it supports m1 and m2 Macs! I kind of love the idea of getting back to a proper Unix environment on a reasonably current Mac.

It’s only a matter of time before corporations are run by AI. Add that to “corporate personhood” and what do we get?

There are settings under the accessibility heading that let you adjust transparency and some other things. They’ve also gotten less effective over time. And they don’t get rid of rounded corners currently. But it still does have a positive

I’m renovating an old building that doesn’t currently have any HVAC. I tried like hell to get a geothermal heat pump set up for it. This entailed researching companies that make good geothermal equipment and talking to all of their preferre

Good thing there’s no conflict of interest in the owner of SpaceX advocating for the destruction of a successful international space project.

Good question. I wonder if the Romans knew they were getting dumber from sweetening their food with lead.

Where you’re going wrong is thinking that it’s intended to work for patients at all. If you look at it as a pump that’s intended to provide the worst possible care with the most friction it can tolerate and at the highest parasitic cost I’m
