This is why you never connect smart tvs to the internet.

1. buy smart tv subsidized by roku
2. connect it to your computer
3. torrent all content

So will this be the beginning of the end of gitea?

Great. That’s a different article from the OP which is what I quoted.

Oh sorry, I misunderstood. The thing I originally quoted is the BBC suggesting that the missiles that killed several people in Poland a while back were Russian when they were in fact launched by Ukraine. What BBC is claiming is false and they’re being real cavalier assholes by repeating the claim that Russian missiles killed people in a NATO country.

That’s my read.

Interesting comparing the situation described in this article to china apparently solving addiction of youths to online gaming this year in a matter of months.

The incident comes a month after a missile strike during an attack by Russia on Ukraine killed two people in Poland close to the Ukrainian border.

That is some classic BBC right there 😂

• bring visibility to bourgeois parasites doing environmental damage
• make bourgeois parasites feel uncomfortable
• highlight the hollowness of Elon’s free speech gesturing by getting banned from Twitter

These are all great goals if you ask me.

Is there evidence yet musk is the source of the Twitter files and not a former employee?

My employer uses ubuntu for operations, and so I have experience using it in that settings. My thoughts:

• It’s basically fine, it’s well-supported by third party PPAs (i.e., apt repos) so it’s generally possible to install arbitrary versions of popular open source daemons (e.g., postgres, redis), it’s been on systemd for a while, which despite some people’s criticisms, I find to Just Work, so I like it.
• snap is annoying and I wish canonical would stop trying to make it a thing
• apt’s default is to automatically enable and start daemon systemd units on installation, which IMO is highly questionable

For desktop, I like Arch too much to use Ubuntu or any other fixed-release distro.

Please hook me up.

The purpose of VOA writing about this is manufacturing consent among the public for when the govt helicopter money starts pouring onto tech companies for “innovation” which will manifest as massive PR spend and share buybacks.

Private capital has no national allegiance. If bolstering the u.s. tech sector doesn’t increase margins, it isn’t going to happen.

Yep I commuted several winters in Chicago and biking in the snow was def doable. Here are some tips:

• don’t go out and buy stuff, start with wht you have and upgrade incrementally as you discover what works and doesn’t
• here’s what I wore which kept me warm enough down to about 15F: synthetic undershirt, synthetic base layer long sleeve shirt, lightly insulated waterproof winter shell jacket, bike tights padded in the ass, waterproof shell pants, waterproof boots, light windproof gloves, a thin insulated hat that fit under a helmet, and sunglasses. I have a beard and it kept my face warm
• when it got colder I wore heavier gloves, a neoprene-like balaclava, and a ski helmet, and occasionally ski goggles
• as long as you keep your heart rate up, you’ll be warmer than you think. It’s important that you have a place that’s warm to change on the other end. If you stop moving you’ll get cold
• biking in snow and ice is doable as long as you don’t accelerate much, turning, speeding up, and braking are when things get dicey
• fenders are a must
• I recommend riding the shittiest bike you have bc it’s going to get fucked up by Ice and salt. I rode a cheap single speed and would go through at least one chain per winter biking about 70 miles per week.

Dunno what the star thingy is but the sticky things look kinda like beginners chopsticks.

Fuck yeah, this looks very nice. I run navidrome and would love a good desktop app.

Bill Gates is a parasite. What he does with his monopoly spoils is donate them to his own foundations, which allows him to write off a huge amount of tax liability. He ultimately controls these foundations, therefore the funds are still under his control. The funds are being used to exert a huge amount of unipolar influence on global health (e.g., via the WHO), education (charter schools, circumventing public education), and from what I hear, arable land in the U.S.

Philanthropy is no substitute for functioning public investment. Don’t cheer for bill gates.
