or you could just look up the word...in a dictionary.

Yes, but have those positive effects on AI research had a positive or negative effect on society? I guess time will tell

I'd say it's closer to a Roomba then a hammer -- if you just let a Roomba run around your living room, can you say you vacuumed?

I think you meant Furby

We should do that anyway, CSS was a mistake. I miss gopher.

I'm not redefining self driving, tesla is: https://electrek.co/2025/09/05/tesla-changes-meaning-full-se... When they first started talking about it in the mid-teens, it was pitched…

I'll cheat all day then. If I'm going to spend what a good steak costs, I'm going to do everything in my power to make sure I'm not ruining it.

None of that matters, unless you can buy a Tesla with FSD enabled. This has been promised so many times, for so many years, that it's become a bit of a joke.

Do you really need a Linux client? just download the installers. They announced a Linux client, and I honestly can't see a reason I would want to install it...

I've never seen this for CD or DVD players, and only the shittiest printers are sold with a subscription plan. Plenty of unencumbered printers available, and CD and DVD players eve…

To be fair, I don't think Stallman is against buying or selling software, I think he just feels that the source code should be provided with it (and that you can share it afterward…

not sure if I'm missing something, `select` seems to work just fine on my machine

what a shame; I only played minecraft when it was an alpha, and the .jar file ran just fine on my linux machine at the time.

Isn't the point of a blog to "place my opinion everywhere possible"? Isn't that why there's an internet?

I'm another one. There are at least two of us. I'd bet there's more.

The AI image is a good quick signal that the text is likely AI generated without even reading it. I say let's keep them around as a shibboleth.
