Ages ago someone wrote a bash script that would calculate your “stallman score”, essentially checking the license of every package in your system.

To nitpick, Win10 looks like KDE :). Kde has been pretty consistent for a while

We need her in the legislature. Presidents fuck off after 4-8 years, we can’t spend one of our progressives so early

He knows Trump will win, it’s a safe bet to win some favor.

Unfortunately this financing requires a populace widely adopting cryptocurrency…making it a pipe dream for mainstream use.

Tips are generally a bad model as well, which creates an incentive for rapid and pandering work (like ad supported content).

Patreon had frankly built all of YouTube that is worth watching. I think a simple payment system using real banks can be integrated into smaller hosting services.

It’s all academic though, YouTube is unrivaled in ad revenue and helping you expand an audience.

It’s concerning how this pseudoscience is getting so much traction, and we’ll be left with a bunch of nonsensical privacy regulation. Granted I’m happy to err towards too much privacy regulation, but can imagine other privacy issues getting less traction.

I don’t disagree with any of this, but in this particular instance i do think it’s simply a reflection of reality. Biden’s whole strategy is win over dummy undecideds who can’t tell him and Trump apart, rather than excite his base for a good turnout.

Fact is that strategy requires charisma, not brains. Biden’s running a strategy on his weakness. It’s doomed, which is impressive since Trump is so widely hated. Literally any other dem in there party is a better choice, save Jimmy Carter…

I hope this works out. Local news media outside of huge cities is 3 nextdoor posts in a trenchcoat.

Uncritical copaganda from NYT again. These changes are…fine, but don’t get at the inherent risks of police surveillance and biometrics.

With the state of AI and computer vision, and legal requirements to disclose ads, i wonder if a ytdl + editing script will he the nicest way to watch at some point

And half a dozen months ago they could have had a ceasefire to have them released, along with the ones that STILL aren’t released.

UN veto power goes a long way.

Fun fact, it was quite common for people to live into their 80s in the past. The shorter life expectancy myth (1) comes with averaging age of death infant mortality, which was far higher and (2) the drop in life expectancy during industrialization.

A few thousand years ago we had a similar life expectancy and worked far less. There are other tradeoffs of course.

You can be organized without a state. Typically nicer, in fact.

The best recruitment tool for Hamas is Israeli violence. Israel kills many civilians but a manageable number of Hamas. There are many Palestinians in prison camps with no trials, Hamas negotiates for their own.

Their calculus is one of triage, they want an effective fighting force to liberate Palestine and not become another West Bank (effectively dissolved with Palestinians treated like cattle). So the need for their organization takes priority over the general population.

They’re right wing, imagine how MAGA types would respond to the US being occupied and genocided by China.

Best case scenario it’s bought, or other platforms honor a number of steam purchases as a perk. But ultimately…poof

Luckily they make a lot, have relatively low operation costs, and are a private company that doesnt need to be enshitified for share holders

The US has truly been grifted by the “defense” industry for decades now. A lot of snake oil with no testing in real battle conditions

We really need to tax energy used by GPU-burning projects differently. AI training, blockchain, whatever. Such a wasteful endeavour.

Historical reason for the US supporting the creation of Israel ^^
