The last paragraph made me stupidly happy. Done reading the news today.

Probably because every stupid mouth shit he takes gets breathlessly printed and discussed around the world.

Other way around. Taxonomy qualifies the relatedness of two organisms based on the evidence of historical common ancestors. Games don’t have a lot of levels of relatedness except the studio that made them.

A law that specified you were actively using the phone would be hard to enforce. Simmiliar to how it is usually illegal to have open alcohol within reach of the driver. The officer doesn’t have to actually see you drinking it.

A lot of people host websites created with a static site generator just fine without that extra layer. Unless your site has expensive to generate dynamic pages, lots of video content, or deep changelog pages (wiki history or forge commit diff’s publicly available), it makes a lot of sense to keep it simple.

Putting everything behind Cloudflare is just cargo cult behaviour and learning all the ins and outs of it isnt any harder than learning a firewall (which is transferrable knowledge that can also protect your machines from each other).

Its a little annoying on Linux but I wonder what it would be like on Windows.

Which are probably just web front ends to the above?

They are complex systems that need monitoring and management. Of course, there are well established ways to do this with zero-cost software and no need for any of the janky stuff that is on all this IOT stuff except a deliberate desire to monetize equipment after the sale via enshitification.

I assume so yes. The first video we transmitted was Hitler, and the biggest radio signals were H-bombs.

Feels like solar tech is like trying to buy real medicine in 1890. Mostly snake oil or alcohol.

Did they break this story? Looks like this is a copy-paste article on hundreds of shitty sites: https://duckduckgo.com/?t=fpas&q=chaos+computer+club+solar+vulnerability+remote+chinese&ia=web

The Chaos Computer Club is real, and awesome, but I cand find anything on their site or YouTube about this yet. It was probably not in English though so thats on me: https://www.ccc.de/en/home

Edit, I just had to scroll down: https://lemmy.ca/post/67687895/24241020

The place where hikers literally go blind without dark sunglasses.

The american companies tend to sell a lot of the data on the open markets via sketchy “data brokers” so China can just buy it.

I really wish these people would care about these same things when Americans do it.

There was something special about col. Carter reverse engineering some alien tech using just an oscilloscope and pentium computer with a CRT monitor in a bunker that I think might not be possible to recreate in trek. I’d love to see them try.

Please tell me you have posted screenshots somewhere of your fantacy 90s desktops. Sounds awesome.

You have the right attitude and I hope you are able to successfully shop around. Some institutions are paying below living wages to overworked and precariously employed instructors. Of course they phone it in. Those places are not worth your money and just trying to cash in on the “diploma” ==“job ticket” mentality.

Find a place that actually gives a shit about education and you should find professors interested in actual education that will see your attitude as refreshing.

40 years of telling kids a degree is a job ticket rather than explaining the value of a liberal arts education.

Every time I see k12 education discussion focused on “preparing kids for the job market” I cringe. Its the cart before the horse and just as agile.

Those GPUs will be about as useful as a bitcoin miner for gaming. As in exactly not useful.

They may be really useful for running your own local LLM, as long as you don’t mind the hefty power bill and jet engine noise.

While people typically equate “average” with the mean, that is not a hard definition. Average is a colloquialism, and can be the median or mode, or other central tendency.
