@jwz I'm guessing that's a screenshot from Alien?

Just realized that ChatGPT's style of utterly confident yet completely unsourced and unbelievable answers have been coming from computers in movies basically forever, and maybe this explains the whole thing:

@ramin_hal9001@emacs.ch I completely agree.

And if we look at all of the states in which all of this bullshit is happening - the rewriting of history, the huge religious zeal which involves guns, the re-writing of voting laws to make it even harder for minorities to vote, the way they are gerrymandering districts to exclude as many minority votes as possible - it's almost all the previous slave states from the south where this is happening.

This isn't a new civil war, it's the same one being fought again.

When you post on Twitter(1) or Bluesky(2) you grant them a broad perpetual license to use, modify, and sublicense your content. You effectively make them co-owners of your content. They can mine it and monetize it. They can even sell it. When you post on Mastodon(3) most instances take no license at all. That's right, they tell you what they are doing with your content—storing posts and delivering them—but no license.

@daphlawless @micahflee Thank you! I didn’t know any of this. I’m about to get some shut-eye for the night but I’ll definitely read it more in depth tomorrow. I appreciate it very much. 👍

Which one would you use if you want a highly stable desktop device with snapshot capabilities, and why?

Please RT in the #Linux bubble for more reach, I need to make this decision soon and got actually no idea. But having stuff like lsblk, gnome-system-monitor etc. showing it properly would be a bonus. #btrfs #zfs #filesystem #tech #techsupport #sysadmin

@micahflee I'm seeing a lot of posts saying how bad it is. But I haven't seen any specific critique of what makes blue sky bad. Just wondering if someone can enlighten me on the topic? Genuinely curious as I've only started hearing about it since about two days ago.
