@m0xee @Hyolobrika not the YT videos I watch. And yeah, rephrasing the same thought in a different way and context can be helpful or at least bearable, but Rossman just 100% repeats the exact same strings of words he said a few minutes ago.

I guess he's probably used to explaining the same things to different (and the same but slow) people in the same way over and over so it's like an ingrained thought path.

@Hyolobrika I stopped watching him because of just how much he redundantly talks about the same things in the same way, as if his brain is just locked into repeating these thought loops whenever anything related to them is triggered. On the last video I watched I estimated there was about 4 minutes of unique content in like 20 minutes of video.

If I wanted to watch One Piece I'd do that.

The state of search in 2024:

Google: "We threw away decades of search knowledge and Internet indexing and just made an answer up :blobfoxgoogly:"

Bing: "Here's 100 tangentially related pages from 2010 that I only included because your query appears in a tag cloud in the website's footer"

DuckDuckGo: "Here are the Bing results, only with ✨privacy✨"

Reddit: (this user has deleted their entire post history using PowerDeleteMyShit. Fuck /u/Spez)

Yahoo: "Oh thank god, someone's actually using our search engine! No, we're not just Bing!" *frantically trying to cover up the giant Bing sticker* "NO DON'T GO TO GOOGLE!!!!"

Yandex: "Here are all of the Russian-owned resources on this topic. Only Russian sources are trustworthy. Everything else is fake ne—I MEAN, misinformation"

Kagi: "We'll give you what Google used to give you for free, for the low low price of $10/month!"

Ask.com: [hoarse screaming and clawing noises can be heard from the ground beneath a headstone that says "Here lies Jeeves: 1996-2006"]

@evacide woah, a tracking device can be used for tracking? Who woulda thunk?

@mkljczk bez szans, pamiętaj że bańki twoich followersów się nieźle nakładają na Twoją i na siebie nawzajem, szansa na to że w parunastu repostach to nie tylko opuściło Twoją bańkę ale i rozprzestrzeniło się w innych jest praktycznie żadna.

@mkljczk musiałoby się stać turboviralem przebijającym się między bańkami żeby przestało coś mówić o twoich obserwujących.

if you have a computer you no longer use, consider donating it to your local Linux Creature.

Linux Creatures must install linux on a new device every few months in order to survive, and you may end up getting a useful computer out of it to boot.

(if the Linux Creature decides to hand it back to you instead of keeping it for their silly little experiments)

This gives me a fun idea that I will never have the time to develop so someone else does it:

A bot called "Fedi installs Gentoo" on an empty virtual machine with a Gentoo iso where on each command input it posts a poll on what to type next.

The “reinventing trains” crowd when seeing a bus:

hurhurhur yeah and maybe also connect those “pods” to be more efficient, oh and maybe also put them on some kind of tracks so that they don’t need separate drivers.

It’s peak internet activism when the loudest proponents of the mode of transportation based entirely on the economy of scale don’t understand the economy of scale.

Now hear me out.

Is Microsoft aware of the X11 protocol? Maybe they just needlessly trying to reinvent the wheel by screenshoting your hent^H^H^H^Hvery serious documents while there's a very mature and sound way of spying your desktop.

I mean, they could take over the maintenance of Xorg and make happy all those grey beard people who don't wish to switch to wayland.

I propose the following #Kanban board stages:

@icedquinn @arcana if "the people" were capable of rational cooperation, they'd buy more expensive better built products instead of getting duped by cheaper shit that breaks and costs them more in the long run, and so force the producers to optimise for excellent engineering or get pushed out of the market.

As per usual, it's the fault of societal inability to cooperate, and so systems based more on cooperation than on the market would therefore do even worse.

@dany_57987 @nixCraft tracker blockers can sometimes be overzealous and break things with false positives. I assume that if Firefox took that stance, it's likely one of those cases.

@lucy and that's why they're forcing big tech to adapt common standards like USB-C and open their ecosystems to alternative app stores, which among other things "enable piracy and malware"? The EU isn't the American government.
