You’ll forgive me if I ever-so-briefly misread your boilerplate link as “And then I woke up.”
Some middle-aged guy on the Internet. Seen a lot of it, occasionally regurgitates it, trying to be amusing and informative.
Lurked Digg until v4. Commented on Reddit (same username) until it went full Musk.
Is on kbin.social but created this profile on kbin.run during a week-long outage.

Ah, an excuse to attack an organisation that worships something other than Mighty Xi and the CCP.
Using children as the pawns too. Masterful.
The real punishment ought to be an atomic wedgie. For everyone who was a C-level for more than a month at that company in the last 10 years.
This ought to be the punishment for a lot of unethical business practices. You can’t delegate that to a customer’s wallet.
If we tried this in the UK with someone like, say, the late David Coleman, I’m not entirely sure anyone who remembers him would be able to distinguish - other than, as I said, the knowledge that he’s been gone for quite some time now.
Coleman, was considered a go-to commentator for decades despite being gaffe-prone even at the best of times. He was occasionally oblivious and apparently lacking any self-awareness too. (He did kind of learn to laugh at himself though and was a good, well, sport, about it all.)
Sounds very AI to me. Come to think of it, he may even have been kept around precisely because of the entertainment value.
I assume that Al Michaels is not of this bizarre calibre and it wouldn’t take long for people to notice.
If they’ve heard of Lemmy then it’s probably the Tankie connection that’s putting them off. If.
Guessing Kbin/Mbin is also either unheard of or tainted by association.
Or it could just be: “But why male models not Reddit?”
In other news, Fred Bloggs from Bournemouth has been on the phone to the White House telling Joe Biden to stop using toilet paper.
You joke, but I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s at the back of some people’s minds.
There’s also the whole association with Red Hat, and since Red Hat got bought, went corporate and murdered CentOS, Fedora is tainted somehow.
These things aren’t necessarily good reasons to not recommend Fedora, (for those see other comments) but they’re reasons nonetheless.
He won’t stop until every last potential Hamas member (read “Palestinian”) is dead or out of Palestine.
He’s been pretty clear on this.
So I decided to go peek at the ragecomic subreddit. Yes, the very one-time ragecomic home-from-home outside of 4chan. Last post 17 days ago, using at least two “extinct” faces, got 600 upvotes.
It’s complaining that there are no good tools to make ragecomics any more. (I have not checked to see if that’s true.)
Y’know, I feel like they should stay there. Anything that’ll mess up an AI should stay on that site for as long as humanly possible. smilingthumbsuprageface.jaypeg
Maybe not in any legal sense, no. How people and even news media use it, there’s plenty of wiggle room.
e.g. allowing the ambiguity of “British home owner” to go unclarified, that is as “home owner who is British” as opposed to “owner of a home in Britain”, and any similarly loose interpretations that go along with or derive from that.
Ah, stealth tracking in the guise of usefulness. Wonderful!
Of all the comments to argue against the use of a mysterious “they”, I think you’ve picked the wrong one.
It’s pretty clear who the “they” is here: Conservative politicians in the pocket of corporations who would stand to lose from cheaper, cleaner energy sources.
I’d go one step further and erase “Conservative”, because it doesn’t matter your other politics if you’re receiving bribes lobbying money from big business. It does at least seem to be skewed more towards politicians in Conservative parties though.
Cygwin on Win7 back in the day was pretty close tbh.
Headline in three months: “Less work getting done than in five-day week.”
Government and management will blame lazy workers. Workers will blame government, management and burnout. Truth will be closer to the latter, but a few actually lazy employees and some innocent scapegoats will be fired to preserve the bottom line. Burnout will increase.
But at least the bosses got their bonus this month.
It’s been many, many years at this point. Which one was it that went 64-bit before Firefox proper did (Waterfox maybe)? Pretty sure I used that for a short while at the time, but memory is hazy now.
I occasionally toy with the idea of switching to SeaMonkey because I was a Mozilla Mail & News user for a long time way back when, but I switched to separate FF and Thunderbird when that was discontinued and never had the need to switch “back” to the all-in-one.
Better hope the IDF don’t find out there’s a humanitarian zone at Netanyahu’s house.
Pity the person of Scottish (or Welsh) ancestry born in England who has to choose what they are on some forms, especially legal ones.
But then, there are worse problems to have.
I don’t know about that. Non-binary files have been put into bin directories for decades at this point. (Feel free to marvel at the analogy.)
Delete the contents and it’s not just binaries going to the bit-bucket.
The joke here is more “Tony Lazuto said to execute these files.”
Talk about a quote that can be read both ways.
