The problem is that the "emotionally intelligent" baboons got really obsessed with people and culture lately, so they need some actual people around in order to inflict the fad-of-the-day on them.

> to be able to travel somewhere(s) else in the world so they can see how similar we all are.

"One Travel for Life", a new sci-fi serie soon on Netflix \o/

But we got surveillance, it was a good bargain :D

> There is absolutely no chance whatsoever that robots that are so real they are indistinguishable from people will come about in our lifetimes.

Yet the Prince of Nigeria keeps sending emails to good effect. Makes you think :)

Reminds me of systemd: we "modern" developers despise anything that reminds us of "traditional" Unix, thus we need to rewrite it in such a way that is not only new, but actively punishes unwelcome users.

Then we will complain about "embrace and extend" while people try to replace their xdotool scripts and their perfectly working X11 setups.

Too bad for them: we don't care about custom applications, we still aim to just steal users from Windows. And 2024 will be the Year of Linux on the Desktop.

All the endless babbling about code reviews, yet here we are.

Yes, and maybe we should also avoid parroting their rhetoric :D

I remember the time when "Trump vaccines were developed too quickly for his electoral benefit, and we don't trust them."

Our "current understanding" seems to be shifting a lot.

> It's about someone who is a clear and present danger to our way of life and the security of the country.

However, this mirrors what the QAnons and the hardline MAGAs say about Clinton and Biden. Or more or less what Bush used to tell about Saddam. It might be worth noticing.

> but if it had been necessary to do so I would have supported it.

And this is not going to fuel more conspiracy theories, at all \o/

Nobody, ever, seemed to care about what was going on in Twitter until "leaving it" became a virtue signalling beacon. Of course we can pretend that a) this is not true and b) we are being intellectually honest at the same time \o/

"Vilifying" is the code word that gives the answer away, much like "combat" and "bigotry" and "vitriol".

It is like an embedded watermark :)

The tone of this post is exactly the same as a company would use after a very public incident of harassment or discrimination. So, they probably realized it was not the smartest thing to do.

"Green transition" in a nutshell.

> which was actually not true, but perception is reality

This is beyond stupid.

One has to wonder if these “review” mechanisms are not really engineered like a Skinner box, where the developer is the pigeon.

I honestly cannot decide which is worse: app development, or the web ecosystem as a whole. But at least on “the web” you can push fixes at a resonable speed.

> How is that idiotic?

Well, it sounds strangely like a "15-minute city" agenda, where you have less pollution, less noise, less traffic, and are stuck living in your block :D

Yep, what other reason could there be.

Why Terraform and not, say, Nomad? Just wondering :)

They own copyright on hallucinating weapons of mass destruction? :D

People also wonder what happened with Epstein, for that matter :D

> people turned wearing masks into a ridiculous political issue.

In my country, “wear masks because we say so, else you are an idiot” came just after “people who buy masks are selfish baboons because masks are not useful at all.”

When you treat citizens like idiots, or threaten them, it usually becomes a “political” issue at some point.

It would be better to have a more coherent communication strategy ready for the next time. It would also be great to have literate leaders in charge, something we sorely lacked over here.

What happened to fsck_options in rc.conf?

This is amazing! We will be getting Active Desktop all over again!

GPT version:

I don't understand why there are frequently numerous issues while working with frameworks like Laravel or other front-end technologies. Running `npm run build` consistently presents multiple problems that require constant troubleshooting. Why is it so challenging? Why can't front-end development be as straightforward as back-end? Who is responsible for this?

But.. something is definitely lost \o/

I had this :)

"We’re taking this step to boost operational efficiency and to make the most of the Bending Spoons employer brand, which is extremely strong in Europe."

Doesn't mean anything. Next time try with GPT.

Here, I asked GPT to fix it for you:

"I find FreeBSD's self-congratulatory nature quite off-putting, as well as the issues with its leadership and culture. It makes me feel nauseated. Perhaps focusing on attracting more users should be a priority."

Save it on disk, fsync twice :D and use it next time.
