Was super interested right up until the AI recommendations bit.

Lol, lost the internet because they have less DCs?

Meanwhile most of America is still on dialup or early 2000s broadband speeds.

This is a fucking shallow definition of winning.

Cyberattack is a funny name for Trump Tariffs

Fireplaces have a flue. If you close it the smoke has no where to go but the house.

The whole idea still smacks of dumbfuckery, don’t get me wrong; but its not as much of a lost cause as you’re thinking.

This was a millennial film. Boomers were parents when this film aired… Hell, so was a good portion of Gen X.

Lol, this post has everything, even Sherlock holmes fan fiction.

Anyone contributing to open source either does it:

• on their companies dime, which means they work for a rare company building open source solutions
• at the end of their day, on their weekend, or during their vacation

Most FOSS devs are in position two. By a large margin. They could be relaxing, or earning more money doing freelancing to make ends meet, but instead they are trying to build something they want to see happen. That requires focusing on the important tasks and that often means not having time to spend on poorly reported bugs that are actually users just not RTFM and opening issues. It wastes the devs time, and projects with too much of this have development stagnate and are frequently shuttered.

And devs that just do this to get a better job stop contributions once their new job takes over their life, and then the project suffers.

Users need to appreciate FOSS devs more because some of the most important projects we need in 2025 are developed only because they want to see them happen.

Oh, go to your DDG options and turn the AI slop off.

No pensions, just an RRSP, and these assholes who did away with pensions keep manipulating the market in their favour.

Took me 30 years to barely get into a house before interest rates skyrocketed, and now the ai crash will likely take that from me.

Ill be working till I die, and at this point Ill likely be dead before retirement from stress, war, or both.

And the fun all started when I graduated directly into the dotcom crash.

I have run Pihole on 2 physical Pi 4s (DietPi OS) with config sync for 3 years now. Core to the house. Very reliable.

Don’t use Google. DDG works with keyword searches and you get exactly what you expect.

For horribly inaccurate results that sound like they were written by a $5 SEO article writer.

Ill stick with key word search and skipping over all the SEO crap for.real results.

Take my depressed upvote.

Oh sorry, just realized we are talking app servers.

Yeah, Google apps, and linux hosted apps. Havent had a company that ran windows or MS anything in 14 years.

Forgejo and self hosted action workers.

Guess we dying in our mid 40’s… What is this? The middle ages!?

Mac, actually. Its a different kind of bad. At least I can use many of the same cli tools.

For a moment I pondered if that’s what Antartica looks like now that so much of the ice shelf has melted.
