I keep waiting for the cash-grab that breaks the market. Hopefully this is it.

Total rag, that, and you can’t even use it for toilet-paper, unless you’re creatively un-hygenic!

Wait… are they trying to rebrand datacenters as… Bit Barns?

I get that they think rural people are dumb, but that’s pretty insulting.

Downside being, it would force me to be disciplined and not keep adding bits and bobs onto scripts and instead build stuff into useful modules and libraries and things. Ugh. Lol

This is what I like about the lawsuit. I never knew any of this. Now that I do, I’ll never trust them again. I loved them before, but dishonestly is an instant deal breaker.

I like their hardware a lot, but ever since they did that with the s3 (IIRC) I haven’t bought a Samsung phone and probably will never again consider their hardware for a phone.

Thanks for spelling out the double (triple?) Bind that they’re in. Let’s hear it for the growth of the fifth estate!

I think I like this idea. It sets a clear landmark for “done” and resists the inclination I have to make perfect the enemy of good.

So, Ignoring security for a moment, it makes remote resolution of severe machine issues much easier. It is great for IT, it even allows remote OS reinstall.

Now, considering security issues and the lack of parity between AIs ability to attack and defend (better at breaking than fixing) it is sure to become a huge vulnerability, IMO.

This is insane and inspiring all at once.

But it’s written by the Gaming Editor. LOL

We’re cooked.

Thank you for having the spoons ❤️

The way thiel talks about the Antichrist… Really kind of feels like the kind of stuff the Antichrist would say.

Dude, we’re all so cooked. How’s the rig working? No more letting out the “magic smoke” I hope!

I would say that these are some of the first dominoes to fall in this collapsing economy, but it kinda seems like a bunch of em are falling at once. Sometimes I wonder if its time to invest in a solar rig for the van so we have power while we flee.

Huh. Never liked them a lot before, but now a definite no.

Being in a panopticon prison state has a way of dissuading people from doing the needful.

Obviously there’s more nuance than that, but…

Maybe to get an idea of what’s going on, look at the timeline at https://maps.deflock.org/timeline

I don’t have the spoons for more explanations right now, but we know how badly we’re getting fleeced.

Pop os. Need to make the time for the transition and do a little testing with the bootdisk to make sure drivers will work out okay.

I’ve been using Lubuntu on my potato laptops for years and tried mint on a win89 machine, so I figure this couldn’t possibly be as hard.

Thanks for posting this. It’s good to know that the propaganda still flows

Yep. I’ve picked my Linux distro and I’m going to make time for doing this soon
