    First time I hear about oil shell. Funny name, but that aside, I have a hard time taking a shell seriously that started out written in python. They describe it as having "python-li…

    (sarcastic take on the article) Well, thank god it can only be used for Russian or Chinese disinformation. We just need to ban anything Russian or Chinese and we are safe! Do avoid…

    I keep seeing artist use acrylic paint, such a blatant rip off of long established art styles. This has to stop. EDIT: let me take this opportunity to also point out how better cop…

    Sorry, I did not check the repo itself, I don't think I even have a cvs client anymore. On the linked page there's a section prominently placed, titled "Latest News". If you check …

    latest update appears from 2009? Including instructions on how to fetch from cvs? Makes me a bit nostalgic, but not sure if this is relevant anymore

    Hm, that was the whole point of my argument I believe. That this is an inherent left-leaning position, regardless of who is subscribing to it; possibly because in the discussion on…

    Typically, if there is no majority in opposition of a position, it is typically referred to as "consensus". I do not understand your argument. Germany has a left-leaning position o…

    So a consensus position is by definition center? So (democratic) countries can't lean to either side of the spectrum because by definition their positions are supported by the majo…

    Can you give me an example of such a position? I would argue that, for example, social programs in Europe are more popular, but still following a left-leaning position that is just…

    Comment #34833365

    I'm not sure I understand. Are you saying that the same positions would count as "center" in Europe while "left" in the US? And what would be an example of a "large hierarchical st…

    What a weird argument. I guess you also don't use encryption ever because authoritarian governments can just extort the keys from you. Somehow I doubt you grew up in an USSR countr…

    Encouraging children to read is not a crime and nobody ever claimed that it was, will be, or should be.

    This page states it was introduced with 1.7, which was released a long time ago (maybe 2 years?) and it's still in prototype stage since. I have never used it since then, and given…

    Almost more interesting in that article I found that Sama, the Kenyan company, was also asked to collect CP and brutal/gore images for OpenAI. After delivering 1400 images, Sama ca…

    Doesn't apply to the JPL folks I've met throughout my life but for the rest I guess I have to take your word for it. I'm not sure if your comment was just a sarcastic joke though, …

    Looks like somebody is _really_ running a campaign against gas. It's fine if you like induction, like it's fine if you like Apple products. Just leave me alone about it, will you?

    I usually assume OpenAI is actually Microsoft already, as they are one of the lead investors and from what I've heard quite involved there. It's kind of a trick to appear "open" an…

    I believe Deflemask uses exactly the same SID emulation, so it should sound the same? Haven't compared it because I don't have Windows

    Acceleration does not make accidents more likely (well, technically, without the ability to accelerate, it'll be impossible to have a car crash, I guess?). Risky behavior makes acc…

    Such regulation could not be enforced just because it would be hugely impractical to measure and monitor. That aside, I don't understand your problem with it
