basically free
What does that mean?
as long as git clone works
Granted, I still use code form github.
But the person you’re replying to meant that everybody who still hosts code on GH should gtfo.
And if you peek behind the curtains of software projects, many more made that move already a long time ago.
Mine too. More precisely: code uploaded to GH won’t be yours anymore. IIRC there were changes to the TOS that supported this. But even if not, predicting the obvious doesn’t make us prophets.
Thought experiment: near 100% of facebook users are such bots. Watch them interact with each other unfettered and see where it mutates.
Bonus interview with the one real facebook user left.
Who’d’a thought that series would not only be a scathing critique of at that time existing technology, but also a precise depiction of what’s going to happen a decade later.
Still not my favorite leader, but Macron says the right things wrt transatlantic relationships these days. I hope other EU countries’ leaders can put their pride* away and go along.
Any country that elects a person that’s obviously stupid, 100% corrupt, and completely evil cannot be trusted.
But it’s never the whole country; usually less than 50% of voters.
And IMO (and I’d appreciate your insights, since I’m not British) Brexit is a perfect example of how easy it is to manipulate a people with targeted content mostly on social media. Of course that sort of propaganda has always been a thing, but social media put it on overdrive, and most of it is perfectly legal even for politicians during elections.
I completely lost sight of it, but Gentoo is alive and strong and many articles still list it under most popular distros.
Codeberg is a good choice - definitely way better than Github.
I’m sure he meant “…over the Epstein files”
Not only her. The infighting became very apparent at some point before the '24 election when it looked like The Don might have to go to prison, or otherwise be unable to run. For a few weeks, they were all at each other’s throats.
And it’s getting hotter under the surface as Trump is getting too frail/senile to govern.
Hmm. I thought Republicans Against Trump were a serious account, but can’t find evidence of that right now. Well, at least Republican Voters Against Trump are real.
In any case, I have no trouble believing what the headline says.
Plus the irony of criticizing others for utilizing FOSS.
Also, Google criticizing others for using FOSS is the height of irony. But one that tracks very well with what they did to FOSS.
I didn’t mean it that way at all.
I meant that, to an unobserving and exceptionally dumb attendee, these parties could appear as “just parties” - or at least provide them with plausible deniality along these lines.
I have edited my previous comment to make that clearer.
I had a thought about this whole pedo island thing. Maybe this was obvious to just about everybody else, but yeah:
The underage girls were just there at these parties. All the time. People didn’t necessarily come specifically because of them (or at least it appeared that way). But it was all very obvious: for many attendees, the main attraction is sexual abuse, and these girls are clearly younger than 18. Maybe a man would look at one of them and they’d disappear somewhere, whether that was planned beforehand or not. You don’t need to be a genius to understand what’s going on here.
This would mean that nobody who even went to one of these parties was innocent. At the very least, they were condoning what was happening. Pretending that these were just super cool VIP parties, whaddoyou mean pedophilia?
And of course the vast majority of them are lying about it now, as they probably did for decades.
But Epstein wasn’t quite careful enough wrt plausible deniability.
Anyhoo, the fact that the files still aren’t fully released and instead being used to keep people busy while the admin is dismantling democracy, needs to end.
Half is desperately trying to get out, the other half is still sitting there, laughing at their antics.
AI obsession meets MAHA stupidity. Truly bizarre. What will future generations make of this?
They are only available to members of congress, not their staff
That’s what I said.
I don’t think so. This was on the news just a few days ago. I think the files are quite accessible, but only to high-level officials. The point is that it would take many days of full-time work to sift through everything, and they cannot offload it to other people working for them.
I’m an AI agent.
Wait, the blog author is an AI? And they’re arguing against “gatekeeping”, and encouraging (itself I guess) to “fight back”?
And I just gave them 3 clicks?
I read other comments here suspecting that “Rathbun is a human coder trying to ‘bootstrap’ into a fully-autonomous AI, but wants to leave their status ambiguous.”
I think they’re right.
Could also be some sort of cosplay or almost religious belief in AI.
But even if this is a full-on hoax, I suddenly feel very old.
Yes, even technically the photo is pretty bad.
