As other have said, doxing is even worse! If they had searched for her privately, and didn't find her, bummer. But to step up the hunt and dox someone publicly is a totally different story. Disgusting what organisations are capable

I don't want root on my Phone, I want a stable and consistent UX. Maybe even efficient and simple. You can give me root if you gift the device to me, I'll accept that. But I am totally done with "our users are our beta tes

This sounds like borderline stalking. I am not a woman, but I have my experience with getting treated unfairly/getting patronized. And I never felt like I wanted to give a bad actor a second chance to talk down to me, even if they pr

> officially determined who's responsible Becuase they are afraid to figure out the truth. It might not fit the propaganda narrative.

Its an (political) echo chamber, and will ultimately contribute to the division of people.

Well, but personal websites and rss have lost, sadly. I agree with you that being mainstream is not the defining characteristic of a working system. OTOH, every "community" has a lower bound when it comes to involvement. At s

Wha? Well, there are blind people who barely know how to use their cane, but... Let me explain. Manfred Spitzer once wrote that he thinks there are two groups of people on this planet who really have good audio location capabilities. Bli

Why is it that the first thing I try tends to uncover shortcomings? typedef uint64_t qbb_t __attribute__((vector_size(sizeof(uint64_t) * 4))) Syntax error OK, its an extension, meh.

The problem are incentives. There are monetary incentives to create whatever technology you can, because you can, and thats the way you earn money. There is zero incentive to consider how your technology might be abused.

Why is it that people working on spy tech never have an ethics section in there "what I've learnt" rumblings?

I am not an active Zig guy, so... YYMV, but... To me, the examples are actually not self explanatory. What does the _ do? How are these constants used? Why is it something special? C had enums since forever, what is the novelty here?

I was trying to remember how it was called, but failed, thanks for that link! I didn't realize it was pass through, never needed that...

I still remember foldly my first sound card, roughly around '93. It was a LPT connected chip that did 22kHz (I believe mono) audio to 3.5mm. Was directly supported by ModEdit. I remember downloading the schematics as an ASCII file.

Babylon AD comes to mind, which depicted this weird tendency to hold onto past animals.

I no longer care. I cought the left lying to me too often in the last 4 years. I am done. All I want is maximum distance to all of that.

I am done with maniiuplative out-of-context quotes, like the other one about "you will not have to vote again". I've seen too much outright deception from the left, which were supposed to be the good guys, I am done.

So, sort of motivated by reading that many other people seem to experiment with standing desks, I installed a standing terminal at home. Used it sporadically (so only an hour at a time or so) for a few months. Then, my right foot develope

No worries, "Meth" was largely unknown in my area, until you guys exported "Breaking Bad". Roughly a year or two later, it started to be available here as well. Thanks for that, media industry, that was a wonderful mov

I wouldn't consider FEN a great parsing example, simply because it can be implement in a simple function with a single loop. Just a few days ago, I wrote a FEN "parser" for an experimental quad-bitboard impelementation. It

Do you have a suggestion on where to / how to start learning Prolog beyond towers-of-hanoi? Prolog is basically the last language on my list of things I want to look at, but whenever I tried, I failed to find anything practical to do&

I wonder when the environmentalists will realize what is going on right now, and start to protest AI usage in general. I was already wondering the same when the open source community started to CI every damn PR and commit, but I guess I wa

I would be surprised if Toylet-companies weren't already working on something like that.

See, you pretty much confirmed my point. You reduce my disability to accessibility issues. Thats only a small part of the story. The much bigger part is that random people do not treat me like a independent human being. Your rather dism

I am a member of a very small minority group, mch smaller then the LGBTQ+ community. I've been subjected to hardship all my life. I am being talked down to, patronised, and sometimes even manhandled, on a more or less daily basis. A

Full ACK. Frustration is as human as an emotion can be. But that shouldn't lead to patronising sexism. To me, democracy is a life-long lesson. I see it as a pendulum, necessarily swinging from side to side to avoid a particular pol

Have you ever considered that the stance regarding pro aboriton amongst women is to a certain extend age dependant? What I have noticed anecdotally amongst my acquintances is that older women tend to change their mind on that matter, at le

Again, that is your claim and your opinion. That doesn't mean you are eligible to decide what other people in your democracy are supposed to vote. NO, simply no. In fact, this attitude is a reason why liberals are struggling with su
