Because it's not elitist ivory tower navel gazing with possible 8th order effects or something.
Different meme, about adtech-driven dystopia. See original greentext [0] [0] https://files.catbox.moe/eqg0b2.png
The latter is definitely more colorful, and reflects a parrot's tendency to glom on to patterns. "Not X, but Y" being one of the more infamous ones. Once in frustration I called a certain frontier model "Sam Altman's…

EVE to me is an odd duck because it's an explicitly cutthroat universe - many people log on expecting monsters. There are a lot of supportive players out there among the trolls; where the knives of betrayal really come…
No worries, in some languages it is indeed one word - like Luftwaffe. I've seen many native English speakers routinely bang out "airforce", so it's not just an ESL thing.
A lot of floppy-based games have on-disk copy protection patterns that take advantage of undocumented behavior of disk drives at the time. So much so that tools like Greaseweazle [0] are necessary to compose full…
USAF veteran here. I grew up on F-15 Strike Eagle II, and unfortunately my copy has long since degraded. I am elated to see this project. I do have one teeny, tiny, personal pedantic grumble that is sure to bring other…
As long as the vehicle traveling above Mach 1 remains a ground vehicle, the FAA won't get involved.

I'm reminded of prepper forum discussions. Where some do little more than hoard supplies, weapons and gadgets yet don't network and build communities. In an actual societal breakdown scenario these isolated individuals…
Exactly. So many comments here about technical solutions are missing the underlying government/authority problem, or are actively a part of it.
Online anonymity makes it harder for TPTB to punish dissidents.
It's by no means accurate, but the comparative histories of Ladybird vs. Servo sure has some parallels with Linux vs. GNU Hurd.
Mozilla laid off the Servo team years ago.
I upgraded a ~1992 Dell 486 DX2 to 36MB (original 4MB + 32MB...or was it a pair of 16MB sticks? hard to remember) around 1997 or so.
Just slap a new legally-distinct-but-still-confusing name on your client/server pair, and use it as a marketing tool to sucker in purchasing managers. Like EtherNet/IP, where the IP somehow stands for "Industrial…
The company itself might not discriminate as a policy, but some hiring managers certainly have their preferences. Or exclusively pull talent from their overseas cousin's brother's spouse's college roommate's consulting…
The pelt is what's harvested - the fur is not removed from the skin. In some cases the animal's hair can be cut without harm, like how sheep are shorn for wool.
Finger-wag all you want, it's not going to make that Sisyphean boulder any lighter.
Forgot about Dell gimping Turbo Boost on that firmware. Another route is the PowerEdge T440 (tower server), which does respect Broadwell-EP turbo logic without a reflash. Not quite as quiet as a workstation, though.
Personally I use eBay and find the most barebones system I can, then populate the CPU+RAM with components salvaged from e-wasted servers. There are risks with this, as I've had to return more than one badly-bent…
I too have a crippling dual CPU workstation hoarding habit. Single thread performance is usually worse than enthusiast consumer desktops, and gaming performance will suffer if the game isn't constrained to a single NUMA…
The incentive is less about morals and very much about self-preservation. With online mobs, when the target shows any sort of regret there is blood in the water and the sharks feast. It sometimes turns into a very…
Ah, yes. The "normal people" canard. It's very tiresome. I refer you to a prior comment of mine and the ensuing chain from the usual HN homeschooling merry-go-round a year ago [0]. -- >> You can also learn outside of…
