No
Same goes for most ISPs, which are needed to connect to the Internet.
Why would you call yourself a fanboy? I can't get past his meddling in governments worldwide and clear self-seving in DOGE.
You can join private trackers for free if someone invites you. Ratio and minimum seed times are requirements.
I'm cautiously optimistic with the DSA candidates that have been winning. People have had enough of the status quo. However, at this point I'd take status quo over the chaos and blatant corruption of those currently…
Our country has been at a breaking point for a long time now. More pain will only result in greater societal ill.
If he's trying to manipulate the economy in the direction of lowering cost of living, he's doing a terrible job at it. Useless wars and tariffs have been highly inflationary.
And just what action is POTUS going to do to make things better? He's not in charge of interest rates. Start another useless war? Piss off another country? More inflationary tariffs? Give another multi-billion military…
Hope you start eating healthier. That frankenfood isn't good in the long run.
Yeah, people have the memories of a fruit fly. It's why Trump was elected again after his disaster of a first term.
I skimmed the article, lots of info. I use multiple Yubikeys with passkeys and feel better about the auth experience than any other solution thus far. When I have a negative experience I'll reexamine my usage.
Who is "they"? Certainly we have some concentration of consumers of this hardware. Are you saying they'd rather destroy the hardware to protect their supplier's market rather than allow the secondary market to function…
Personally I am lucky and privileged enough to be on a FIRE path, but not everyone is able to do so. And not everyone is shackled to high paying jobs. Some people are working 3 jobs and very much need each one of them.
We've had other "apocalypse" scenarios before (industrial revolution and manufacturing automation) where we successfully transitioned to a new way of living and being productive. The optimist in me says that there's…
Yes, it always has been a forum primarily for SV tech workers. As a tech worker outside of that locale, it's interesting to see the perspectives of people within it.
I've worked at various tech jobs and have not really gotten meaning out of them. Coding, committing, pushing, and deploying gave some dopamine hits, but not long term meaningfulness. And now AI agents are doing those…
Also consider the insecurity that our system creates for people. Losing a job can snowball into something much larger. There goes your healthcare, mortgage payment, retirement contributions, ability to find another job…
You'd probably be interested in this person's work: https://youtu.be/6CLF4QrYmYg
Like mostly all tech, AI is destined to get cheaper with time. We're still pretty early on and are experiencing a hardware crunch, which will ease eventually. AI doesn't have workers rights, doesn't burn out, doesn't…
Simplicity to the point of hostility towards the user. This is a recurring pattern with Apple, and a reason why I don't use their equipment.
For the future, it shouldn't be necessary to reinstall Linux just to fix a sound card. Pipewire et. al are a bit of a mess and sprinkle config files in /etc and your home dir. If it happens again start with deleting…
Vendor lock-in increases their profit margins. If people could purchase a 128GB Mac mini and install their own 2TB drives they wouldn't make as much money.
Depending on how much you value your privacy or not being annoyed, some people see it as mandatory.
I used to use XMonad (now on Hyprland) and feel that the tiling window manager experience you can get on Linux doesn't have an equivalent on macos. KDE is solid but yeah it's plain jane.
How would you do that? Just rely on the user agent? I use curl quite a lot, but don't pipe to a shell.
