Not directly related to your point, but didn't we JUST have a society-wide referendum on whether de minimis "assault" is a crime with the Sandwich Guy acquittal? How are these arrests/charges not immediately understood to be as inherently meritless as that one?

It's sooo cool, seeing the PicoIDE in Mac OS X. Here's a Power Mac G4 (Quicksilver) running 10.4.11 with the PicoIDE set to IDE (hard drive) mode. It sees the drive fine and will even boot to it! 👍

Video coming soon!

I think people pointed out years ago that genAI would be weaponized by governments and used to justify war crimes, because once you outsource mass civilian death to a machine, you can just say the machine made a mistake. Israel & the US have been bombing children non-stop for 2+ years.

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

I think there's nothing "micro" about literally changing their TOS to justify keeping JS here, and then permabanning Link because they misread a threat into alt text.

Depends on how much it costs a local-to-you builder to import all the required components and how much they value their labor. Speaking only as a USian, "find a domestic seller*" is USUALLY a cost savings but rarely an impressive one.

*only applies to niche hobby electronics

Seriously, you're a world class Mensch for open sourcing this stuff.

Assuming 20% margin (generous; RAM prices go brrrr) and 50% post-sale overhead (taxes, RMA costs, etc), you'll clear about $30k for only four years of work! And they say open source doesn't pay 😛

After 9 yeareals, it's finally my turn to post the "a thousand cereals" clip, seeing as how I'm the idiot who made it.

New Video: The PicoIDE is a brand new IDE optical and hard drive emulator for classic computers. Based on the Raspberry Pi RP2350 and ESP32, it's easy to use, open source, low cost, fully featured, and set to be an absolute game changer for the vintage computing hobby.

Let's do this wild thing that someone I follow called "Emissary of Night" likes to do called "pretend that Muslims are humans with interiority who are capable of intentional thought."

What good reason would Kurdish rebels have to trust the US at this point? What is in this for them?

Grandma obviously did work -- at Grandpa's store. Feel pretty bad for overlooking that tbh. And after Grandpa's store closed, she briefly clerked for another store.

tl;dr - my grandparents hustled like they meant business

OK, phone call with mom over. Zeidy took over a dye factory and mostly dyed things like lace. Granny's lab worked with many chemicals, but the actual function it performed was testing fabrics, carpeting, etc to verify their contents, rate durability, devise care instructions, etc. 1/2

I know SOME stuff but it feels very, very vague? I can't say "they worked at X company until year Y" but on my mom's side I think he worked either in dyes or paints? And my Granny ran a chemical testing lab. On my dad's side, I think he owned a small store in Montreal? If Grandma worked, I know not.

Apparently Cards Against Humanity are planning to? Or at least I saw something that looked like a statement by them to that effect.

You're wasting your time. Block or mute and move on.

It doesn't need to be an all-covering rule, but it ought to be an internally consistent one. For example, most antivax people are on board with regulating trans people out of existence. "When are restrictions on society good" is an important philosophical proposition!

I USED to be an absolutist about bodily autonomy, until antivax sentiment broke containment from being "just the kooks" to "a full third of the country are intentionally kooks now".

Jesse singal literally wrote a whole article about an imaginary me and then asked people to be furious at his fantasy version of me.

But IIRC it's literally the last and most powerful GPU with working Windows XP drivers, for whatever that's worth 😛

It's also strategically asinine! Four years invested into cutting Russia off from global markets, then squeezing their access to black markets, then, what, we say 'psyche'?!

I do appreciate the irony of people fleeing the consequences of Netanyahu's madness via Yitzhak Rabin Crossing.

I think this must be one of the weirdest branding exercises ever.

this is your mission. our pedophile president needs you to bomb this elementary school full of kids because he thinks it makes him look cool. also his scheming viziers will be betting money on it for fun. good luck soldier
