Satire gets under their skin real fast.

Time for research to move to the EU. No point getting involved in the trouble that is the US these days with little tyrants everywhere.

At what point will this be considered a trojan?

Iam amazed at the epic levels of ruin one man can bring upon a country and how a whole country of people can elect someone so utterly out of depth. This level of idiocy wouldnt be tolerated in companies if done by an intern.

On a T480 secondhand with a wonky keyboard. Where are you guys sourcing keyboards from?

Practitioners need to be led by a practitioner. I worked for a while with a team leader whose only connection to the team was absorbing credit, giving confusing orders and acting like he saved the day. I dont want to work with aggregator managers ever again.

>Why are megacorps so incomprehensibly clueless about this?

Management by committees. Lots of office politics. Most senior execs have successfully failed upwards. Once every 18 months they let go of people they stick the blame on thereby losing any memory of design decisions.

I hear they randomly seize vehicles older than 15 years and crush them even if perfectly maintained.

AI enforced slavery. I remember reading a short story where workers get instructions from an AI constantly after starting out as work assistance. Don't remember the details.

Ive been running deepseek R1 1.5 on a RPI4. Slow as hell but satisfying.

SAltman, Salty.

I have one of those beautiful n900 phones lying around. It's even today one of the sturdiest phones Ive used. I need to find a battery

Does Bluesky also have the bot problem? Cant stand X for this reason.

I wish thyroid disorders were easier to measure as well, just like Blood Sugar is. Does anyone know of proxies to actual blood tests for thyroid level management?

So, another subscription service?

Fragile and too expensive to replace often. The software updates that apple pushes on to them screws them up. Happened to my first set of airpods and swore off of them since then. The batteries are awful too.

My go to since then has been the one plus z2 headsets, brilliant call quality, great form factor, decent ANC, and fantastic battery.

Not just that, I am tired of wanting to actually work than kowtowing to office rituals like drive to work in rush hour traffic to only then get on teams calls in the open. I am also hearing horror stories of new workplaces being completely obstinate about hierarchy and weird HR rule keeping. In short, many workplaces now have "ritualistic work" rather than actual tasks to complete. These aren't small names either. I am guessing that top level executives actually have no work other than aggregate from below and look busy. Looking busy needs minions.

For light uses maybe even a low cost windows machine would do. No point buying apple.

It's batteries plus the devices they are in. Its maddening to see how many perfectly good devices get thrown out because of dead batteries.

Ikea also doesn't use Philips screws. They have pozidriv screws and need pozidriv bits if you dont want to strip the screw heads. I learned the hard way.

SAP has been doing this of late with wild pricing and customers are being pushed into a corner with forced upgrades.

A plugin to crosspost the comment elsewhere will help.

Which frontends?

The ruling party in India legalized corruption using brazen moves such as electoral bonds and is now angry that a small party is continuing to get votes. They have been using laws that assume you are guilty and expect you prove otherwise. The PMLA laws are meant to imprison people and is against the concept of natural justice anywhere in the world except in tin pot dictatorships. India is migrating towards becoming a religious dictatorship that doesn't tolerate opposition or dissent.

The current government has a whole slew of stupid decisions to its name. To its credit though, it has managed to brainwash a large section of India's technically educated and financially well off upper classes. It has the media, sports, public spaces, campuses under full control monitored by policies, online trolls, and goons.

This tech could make other planets habitable too.

When companies start forcing their services on to you, you know they are in trouble. This wont end well. I hope the EU is noticing.

Bad actors seem to hardcode IP addresses.

Went with a large 4k monitor for most other stuff.

I wonder when if anytime these results will translate to humans.
