The guy who put a timebomb in his software because Debian shipped an older version.

Probably a gas to collaborate with.

Um. Didn’t we go through the whole IP thing a while back? I wonder if Google is paying those news outlets.

Also, anything to try to stay relevant, right, rotten G? Who cares.

Always better to be precise!

tl;dr:

Radworks, the organization that has been financing Radicle is organized around the RAD token which is a governance token on Ethereum.

What’s “crypto”?

And did you mean “funded by” or “founded on”?

There’s plenty alternatives.

• Sourcehut sr.ht (possibly other instances)
• Various gitlab instances, e.g. framagit.org
• not to mention git’s own web ui which runs under so many domains; some of them might even be open to signups.

Even sadder: people who don’t know that git is not the same as github.

more than 80% of open source projects

Really? I know that many OS projects are developed elsewhere and only mirrored on github. Even the Linux kernel. But maybe github’s “coproduction” isn’t read only.

As someone who moved out of there before they got taken over by MS: Told you so. I mean it’s been gradual but constant enshittification since then.

BTW, is it just me or is the “at” in the headline wrong?

Nowadays people say it’s advanced stuff for powerusers, but just a decade ago this was the way for everybody: download audio to your computer, sync some of it to mobile devices, listen on the go. Everybody did it, OSs had dedicated software that got activated as soon as you plugged the device in etc.

I hate the “convenience factor” or “non-technical user” arguments.

Oh I missed that bit. JFC she’s 13. How can police be so clueless about their own job… rhetorical question, I know the answer.

Agreed on the condescension, that was uncalled for. Your whataboutism sucks though.

Let’s say it together: Enshittification

It’s been long underway for Spotify; raising prices is just the lastest step.

Username checks out

I obviously do understand why people use Spotify.

But you are correct; my phone has 128GB internal storage, my hard drive music collection is smaller than that. There has been solutions for syncing (a curated list of) music to mobile devices for a long time. There are many - and frankly much better - ways to discover new music outside of Spotify. There are some really cool music only internet radio stations out there.
And I’m not even talking about self-hosting, which simply cannot be recommended to everyone.

People defending Spotify always come back to convenience, and always dismiss the disdvantages of generated playlists, and downplay the suckness of AI content. And never acknowledge that alternatives exist, right down to NOT using a music streaming service.

And Trump!

Sam Altman Is Still a Bullshit Machine

Just like all billionaire tech bros: totally removed from reality, living in their own bubbles of unimaginable wealth and loneliness. They convinced themselves that the constant grift is real and call it a utopia… please, someone take their dangerous toys (and most of their wealth) away. And since the government certainly isn’t going to step in

Nothing miraculous:

One way Wikipedians are sloshing through the muck is with the “speedy deletion” of poorly written articles, as reported earlier by 404 Media. A Wikipedia reviewer who expressed support for the rule said they are “flooded non-stop with horrendous drafts.” They add that the speedy removal “would greatly help efforts to combat it and save countless hours picking up the junk AI leaves behind.” Another says the “lies and fake references” inside AI outputs take “an incredible amount of experienced editor time to clean up.”

Typically, articles flagged for removal on Wikipedia enter a seven-day discussion period during which community members determine whether the site should delete the article. The newly adopted rule will allow Wikipedia administrators to circumvent these discussions if an article is clearly AI-generated and wasn’t reviewed by the person submitting it.

The Wikimedia Foundation is also actively developing a non-AI-powered tool called Edit Check that’s geared toward helping new contributors fall in line with its policies and writing guidelines. Eventually, it might help ease the burden of unreviewed AI-generated submissions, too. Right now, Edit Check can remind writers to add citations if they’ve written a large amount of text without one, as well as check their tone to ensure that writers stay neutral.

Remember that a spell checker also works completely without AI. Computers can do advanced stuff without LLMs.

HP EliteDesk 705 G3 Mini

Probably has a pretty standard motherboard which most probably has SATA ports (looks like this on mine, the cables look like this and the PSU should have some spare power connectors). Once you have those, just plug in and you should be good to go. Not sure if SATA is hot-pluggable though; better to power off first.

With the help of artificial intelligence, technology can dip into online conversations and immediately notify both school officials and law enforcement.

Not sure what’s worse here: how the police overreacted or that the software immediately contacts law enforcement, without letting teachers (n.b.: they are the experts here, not the police) go through the positives first.

But oh, that would mean having to pay somebody, at least some extra hours, in addition to the no doubt expensive software. JFC.
