Shame the guy doesn't have an RSS feed? I want to read the next one.

I was recommended the x299. I didn't go with that and I've been struggling with the AM5.

> whole "Learn to Code" push of the 2010s was one of the worst things that happened to our industry

I would also throw in the toxic positivity and gas lighting sorrounding that. We got a lot of churn on "we have to be nice to everyone" and fears that people weren't "being included." I'm not saying you have to go all Linus on everyone, but it really catered to those who didn't want to learn a lot of the details or were resistent to testing their own code.

There needs to be a public site that surveils and broadcasts (from public support) the private and public lives of officers, government officials, and Flock/Axon. For everyone's safety.

Chase actively will tell you they'll call you back and then they'll try to verify who you are. That's their fraud department at play.

Despite trying to tell people not to trust unknown callers.

What did Google benefit from killing rss? Seems like that would help engagement on the web in general.

There are websites that refuse to accept email addresses that aren't @yahoo, gmail, or hotmail. Two that I've encountered are: avianca lifemiles and gentux.

Also there are services like opencode go that force a gmail account to sign in.

From my understanding is there is no law for movie theathers in the US to card people for the movies, also the MPAA guidence rating is a suggestion. It's not a requirement.

There are policies in the industry to suggest it.

Yes google. You are the bad guy. Full stop.

You took being evil very seriously.

> Someone internally clearly hates

its spez. It's always spez.

Also, you can't use your claude subscription with oh-my-openagent. But you can with Kimi. ALso K3 is on OpenCode GO right now (low limits, but it's possible)

I've got distant family members in law enforcement. They brag about the reach of their equipment to surveil. Yes, they enjoy being overly suspicious.

You probably have to expose it to do Upnp through the VM that is needed for docker on Macos.

Yes, but Russia has the ability to operate independently. Texas pretends that they can, throws a fit when they have to support others who support them, and whines when they aren't supported.

They're a small corrupt country.

The only thing slightly redeem about about them economic wise is their gas reserves. The way they run their state is very similar to a corrupt nation as well. They still want to break away from the US.

Hosting out of the netherlands. Kick their owners are globally headquarted in Australia, their US operations are out of SFO, CA.

It's more like the government of Hungry or Bulgaria in the EU analogy.

Today I learned that a foreign government operates in Texas.

I didn't know that Texas is supporting and promoting the North Korean government: http://naenara.com.kp/main/index/en/first

I wonder why they aren't being called out for anti-American terrorist groups.

Yes. With what they just did.

This kills their operations in other states that do not have this.

Not sure how this does not violate interstate commerce.

BTW: Kick - Melborne, AU. US Operations: SanFran CA. Registar: Verisign - Reston, VA.

There are breastfeeding pods in airports that require an app and registration to use them as well. (But it's a well known code to use them. 80085 )

We're running into situations where the usage of smart phones and apps are becoming mandatory for using services.

For example: The UK has a digital ID requirement which is required for you to be employed in the UK. Additionally the EU digital identity services have a hardware/software attestitation that is required to run their apps. (Many of those which 3rd party software can't run).

Another example of this is the Australian eTA - (Everyone has to have a visa to visit Australia.. but the real only way to get a visa* is you have to get an electronic travel authorization which only works via an App)

Apps that ban graphene-os being used:

    myGov (Australian government app)
    gov.br (Brazilian government app)
    Ticketcorner
    Authy
    Chyrpe Dating
    TextNow
    mada Pay (Saudi NFC payment app)
    McDonald's (International app used for many but not all countries not including the US)
    Dott
    My SEAT (Connectivity for SEAT cars)
    SwissID
    Volkswagen
    BKK Faber-Castell & Partner
    TK-Doc
    TK-Ident
    TK-App (Blocks access to TK-Safe, TK-GesundheitsMessenger, fingerprint login)
    IO (Italian government app which uses it to gate access to the digital wallet feature)
    PosteID (Italian postal service’s app used to access the national digital identity system "SPID")
    Singpass

I use GrapheneOS, I would endorse it for anyone that is technically capable.

I agree with that.. additionaly, I'm finding it to be insane that organizations are trying to force you to have a "audited" phone to interact with them. (I.e. events, businesses, etc)

It's isreali as well: https://www.404media.co/id-verification-service-for-tiktok-u...

Why would you use this compared to the M5 stack which kind of does the same thing? This just looks like it's packaged in a "cuter" sense.

You pay 2-4k.. what do you get? Excuses, breakages delays, poor communication etc. That's lazy boy.

Oh I agree with you. However, the stress does add up, and the businesses escalate to get worse.

I.e. costco introduces self checkout, don't use it, then they start putting people to pester you to use it/try to check your card before you get to where you need (because non-members use self checkout), then they introduce door checking of membership.. all of this is over their desire to reduce staff in the store and force self checkout.

At this point I seriously don't agree with you.

Considering cheap "junk" from China has gotten a heck of a lot better and competitive.

However the average good in the US has been overly inflated.

I mean that's super easy.

Go to a restaurant. Oh you better tip 20-30-50% (Because thats how they hide the bill, and put the lowest value on there). Bad service? YOU MONSTER YOU TIPPED 15% (15% is standard, and on top of higher prices- that is more money.. service+restaurant owners basically forced a 5%+ pay raise for no value). On top of that.. oh no menus.. get your own device so you can order from us.

Walk into a grocer.. no cashier so you can avoid the stupid self checkouts, oh wait now they want you to comply to scan to get out. Don't do that you'll get some employee trying to lecture you about "required behavior". (That was in the Freiberg (Germany) grocer) Not doing that. (Also apparently thats in the Edeka in the Munich airport as well)

Go to Walmart, they brought back receipt checkers at times. And they get pissy when you tell them to go pound sand.

Overall, security guards at these places have such an ego and power trip that affects the average honest customer.

Removing checkout staff for self checkout machines that grade and judge you on your cashier role. Yet you don't get paid.

Let's not forget that Walgreens over exagerated the loss.. and then ramped up their money recovery systems to lock up items + raise the prices. Then they admitted they were crappy.
