But this isn't perceived as emphasis at all. If I wanted to emphasize something, I'd be more likely to use something like *bitch* or something along those lines. Replacing a letter with an asterisk comes across as self-censorship, which is pretty silly - just use a different word if you're that uncomfortable with swearing.
allarm··on Falsehoods Programmers Believe About LANs
You're just mixing up completely different things and thinking you're saying something meaningful. In reality, you're just confusing yourself and those around you.

huh? 1.2.3.0/23 is a valid host address, it doesn't have to be Layer-3 only or whatever. it's just basic subnetting.

allarm··on LG denies TV spying claims, says tracking and snooping concerns 'not true'
E.g. Netflix doesn't let you to stream 4k video in browser afaik. So no, it's not a good option.
allarm··on LG denies TV spying claims, says tracking and snooping concerns 'not true'
I don't think we can do anything substantial. So I'm going to just use this "suboptimal" solution.
allarm··on LG denies TV spying claims, says tracking and snooping concerns 'not true'
Use Apple TV for that.

That's also a sign of mental laziness.

The purpose of reading is to challenge your mind, literally the cognitive load. If slang from 20 years ago is preventing you from reading a book, that’s a sign of mental laziness.
allarm··on Google Maps renames "Lake Ontario" to "Lake America" faster than US Government
That's true. And that's exactly why we should blame Google's employees - they are the ones to blame for what's happening.
allarm··on Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look [video]
I don't disagree, but no one forces you to be a jerk. Don't act surprised when you receive a pushback for that.

It didn't "came off that way". You literally decided to speak up about something that has nothing to do with you.
allarm··on “It works better in the app”
I'm pretty sure there are some here on this forum as well. Fell free to log out and never come back.
allarm··on Google Workspace thinks my domain is an email provider (2025)
Huh? From RFC1123:

<quote>

2.1 Host Names and Numbers

      The syntax of a legal Internet host name was specified in RFC-952 [DNS:4].  One aspect of host name syntax is hereby changed: the restriction on the first character is relaxed to allow either a letter or a digit.  Host software MUST support this more liberal syntax.

It's from 1989. ICANN was founded in 1998.

allarm··on Kobo can run apps now
Oh my. Don't you think that code generated by an LLM has nothing to do with "hackers"? And once/if you realize that, don't you immediately see that they're right? Maybe not in the way they say it, but otherwise - they're absolutely right.
allarm··on HackEurope 2026: A short rant on AI and hackathons
It's pretty common right here on this platform to call such people "normies". I cringe every time I read it.

allarm··on Firefox is now the last major browser that still supports uBlock Origin
You either don't use the f-word at all, or just write the whole word, uncensored. It's not that hard: fuck Chrome.

A good one probably. Because he's obviously correct.

Quoting it in full so you don't stealth-edit your comment:

<quote> I'm glad they're doing this also and that more people are adopting it. Event sourcing [0] is the right way to represent informaiton like tool calls, user interactions, etc. --- it makes it easy to fork conversations and maintain a cohesive conversation stream and stable message history that does not break the cache. </quote>

why dont you mention that its your site instead of prenteding like something you discovered?

allarm··on A Sick People
That's a great comment - you couldn't make it up. It's the perfect illustration of the blog post.
allarm··on AI companies are shredding rare books
> you wouldn't hire a 70 year old writer for your commercial project no matter how brilliant they are.

And yet, practically all over the world, 70- to 80-year-old men are being hired for leadership positions to run the world. Regardless of how brilliant they are.

allarm··on I regret migrating to Codeberg
That's just your bullshit. Reputation exists and words have meanings, regardless of your opinion on that.
allarm··on My security camera shipped a GitHub admin token in its login page
It's how Internet was supposed to work. NAT was a forced mistake, as well as the whole concept of "public" and "internal" address spaces.

> NAT is good.

It isn't. Routing is good though.
