Linux - another Playstation TV❓ ⌨️ / 🎮 ❓ 

3 Main reasons / similarity in how people use things:

1/ 💻 NON-HUMAN

💻 ➡️ Head- down coding?
Near-100% screen life? Mono-work?... tweaking, installing, reloading, adding, add-ons etc, re-installing windows to a certain degree but on a better ? :windows: :playstation:

2/ ⏲️ HUGE dumps or "time investment" / projects

⏲️ ➡️ Time dumps because measurably you have time voids at the end... often nothing actually comes out of the things and what we might genuinely want to happen but doesn't.
Apart from using it it's just usage of computers (even if you do a bit of good consider it's nothing ,much added humanly or solved as far as the human condition or psychology of "bettering people:" or "caring"... (which I understand nobody wants to do like kids deferring / delaying their responsibility or homework of life).

3/ 🙍SOLO mostly
🙍 ➡️ You're mostly in your room or office without interacting with others and even losing your ability to talk to others from lack of / have been trained / paid to become distant.

🙍 ➡️ (e.g. short text comms only, expecting others to be succinct instead like a computer instead of human-expressive 'horrible syntax' and instead have signals become expected operation commands rather than sensitive / empathetic being and feeling with others towards solving humanity to some degree, humanly.

🙍 ➡️ i.e. Humans solve humans, not computers or robots and there's no avoiding or delaying that.

=====================
SUMMARY -
SO A LOT IS MY OPINION BUT....
=====================
Go ahead, load up...

While accepting some unsaid parts here are _maybe_ doing "good" it does sound like me when I asked my parents to get my first computer "you can do so much" abd yes sending helpful emails etc is part of it too and good... but still a lot has been too mixed in (like check mail on a playstation) and constant distraction (like being on internet itself to some-extent) forgetting what we loaded up to do constructive to us or others... lots in tabs as the games.

It's like we're still teenagers but with slightly better brand / labels.
I understand is an and a graphics orientated (with an OS also) but the behaviour and operation mostly similar to how we use a computer - basically doing really similar... for arguably similar outcomes... to spend time.

I do respect the whole ground we've all made to some extent... some job... but feel like everything can become computer orientated is a problem left unchecked, like another bad habit (see above list again and answer honestly yourself even if you don't).

This is self-check somewhat but feel free to tell me what you and others are doing more than a kind of " time " as and .

Autistic humor...

Text conversation with my wife:

Me: When you come home can you buy me some apples?
Her: Oh yeah, I'll buy them for you.
Me: Thank you so much!
Her: Don't thank me!! (she hates when I thank her)
Me: Oh sorry, give me back the thanks I gave you.
Her: Okay, I'll give them back to you.
Me: Oh Thank you so much!!

😜 😅😅😅😅 :catjam:

Self-fulfilling prophecy and example statements... 

💬 "It's too much to change"
💬 "I don't have time"...
💬 "I can't do anything about that"...

And while time is needed to think about things etc and even accept taking the long way around to solve things, people who are too quick to say all the above have settled for allowing things to be bad too and constantly let them continue instead of being constantly open or attacking to find a crack.

Like it or not this lack of looking is somewhat part of the problem too.

We people ( / or otherwise) can't stand or allow that like a mechanic who knows you can't ride around with leaks for too long, and can even admit they are not a perfect mechanics either, but we all MUST try (and not just try in one way or mono-work as that's part of the non-cross-pollinating solutions).

Else we leave it to others to crap on.

This "being crapped on" position is much more evident then any of our 'bad work'.

The average person simply doesn't want to take on the sort of things and even get pissed off at others asking them to be more responsible in life!

🔁 🔃 🔁 🔃
(and what doesn't go around often also comes around less often)

A good friend replies to almost everything... 

But at the same time it's hard to survive whole-truths or being too deep in 1 way constantly.

It's like facing the horror humanity at the same time as trying to make friends.

A rant can feel like it's directed personally at friends and feel like having wheels without grease that people want to instantly throw away, but after a rant things can instantly return to normal (IF they can ride the noise for a while). And then back to the normal greased-wheel fun AFTER.. Not many can stand these frequent "test"

For us the "un-normal" or those the less hiding ourselves and less burdening others in this crazy world, we are trying to repair or help in the over way, where many opt out of trying at all... because "it's too much change" and "I don't have time" ETC whereas we can't stand or allow that self-fulfilling prophecy and can even admit we're not perfect but we MUST try else leave it to others to crap on.

So too much truth can kill things between 2 learners of life... but that's life too.

Both outcomes are actually not bad as a little test of friendship is natural to come about but at the same time having lots of non-deep friends can help too be less sharp...

What do you prefer ? Do you think your friends will be actually stay there even if you say something bad or do the worst things?

I have to accept for example that I don't have too many friends as I prefer working on true things in life rather than false daily life of "business as usual" uncaring state (etc)... rather than cover it up...

This for me all connects the little things we might know about people or just characteristics more in some spectrum than another but all should be good because generally:

➡️ We care a lot and often (often 'too much" for others)
➡️ We put certain aims above all else

And for some people it's not good enough to be put 2nd on the important list or be less the focus but in a way those 'other things' are caring for others though people can see friendship as possessions. It's not. Life is for sharing... good and bad.

#Invidious [1] works again! Together with the #privacy-redirect [2] extension, this lets you watch #YouTube videos without #ads and autoplay and other dark patterns: Pretty important if you have kids!

It stopped working after Google updated YouTube a few months ago. The new version requires setting `visitor_data` and `po_token` and adding an inv_sig_helper to the docker stack. See the docs [3].

Judge gives rhyming rap back to #Eminem claimant 

from Judge Deborah Servitto

"Mr. Bailey complains that his rep is trash 🗑️
So he's seeking compensation in the form of cash 💸
Bailey thinks he's entitled to some monetary gain 📈
Because Eminem used his name in vain 😏
...
the lyrics are stories no-one would take as fact
They're an exaggeration of a childish act
It is therefore this court's ultimate position
That Eminem is entitled to summary disposition."

Pretty smooth by the to do it in that way serving the resulting and a at the same time!

I recently found out that my department at work is being shut down, so I'm looking for a new position!

I spent the last 6 years building advanced security assessment capabilities around hardware/IoT, industrial, marine OT, and x86 platforms. Before that I spent 5 years as a pentester. I excel at weird and novel stuff where there's no template.

I'm based in the UK and I'm looking for a remote full-time role.

… I have seen things you wouldn’t believe …

… ribbon cables for hard drives… Master/Slave #SCSI termination… (mind screams in rebellion)… the little switch boxes to hook your original #Nintendo console or #VIC20 to a TV and then get headaches from staring at the TV CRT too closely…. a VIC-20 cassette drive with a box of about 150+ unlabeled tapes… painstakingly typed in from the listings in #BYTE magazines… Taking low-density 3.5″ floppies, and drilling/punching a hole through to double your storage and make them “high-density”…. the squeal of a modem (and trying to get the #IRQ conflicts resolved via changing jumper switches)… attempting to connect to #Datapac to try and reach unknown systems, running a #BBS inside a #DOS box, on #386(SX) #Windows 3.0 machine, Setting up your own #UUCP #internet over #dialup

All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain…

The clicking of an #IOMEGA #ZIP drive, whose time it was to die…

Continuing to build on my #AgonLight Telnet using the @olimex UEXT wifi module, I can now #telnet to a number of #BBS services over the internet and use my font of choice while doing it. There's still a bit to go, but I wouldn't have gotten here without all of the cool features @stevesims keeps adding to the Agon VDP, and of course Nihirash who came up with a native #Gopher browser, as well as those who continue to run BBS's. Shoulders of giants in #retrocomputing - it really is a team sport!

Recreational Computing of the day - using a Mega65 and a Link232 WiFi Modem built for C64s to connect to the snobsoft.de BBS.

Lot's of technology on my side although with the original Look&Feel - yes I was to lazy to set up the real, period-correct hardware.

But this i not true for the BBS. Snobsoft.de still runs on the original Hardware! A C64, two Disk Drives and it even offers real Modem connections (besides Telnet). It just had a brief hiatus of a few decades but is now reachable again!

Dear colleagues around the world,

As you may know, the Netherlands has, since this summer, been governed by a radical right-wing administration with an agenda reminiscent of Orbán's Hungary.

@veroandi I would much prefer to be living in a cycle of technology guided by Aaron's vision.

" society? " ha! 

"society "
is just a bunch of
irresponsible
people expecting
others to do
everything for them
like YOU! 👁️ 👁️
