Also, they seem to ignore auto mode, seizing on any reason to stop, and sometimes just stopping despite saying they’re proceeding with something. Basically, ongoing enshittificatio…

I really enjoy this site and its community. But it’s time to let the community speak to itself and stop censoring these things.

Unless they come right back with a comparable implementation with a maverick/ranger type form factor, Ford is absolutely shot itself in the foot canceling the lightning. I’ve been …

PF is really nice. (Source: me. Cissp and a couple decades of professional experience with open source and proprietary firewalls). And if they are already using it on openbsd, it’s…

There’s also companies which seemed to break their Web experience specifically to drive people into the app. Credit Karma hasn’t worked on a browser on mobile or desktop for me in …

Canada would be insane to not beef up its military at this point. Mexico should, too.

I was all in on Tesla in 2019. Solar, powerwalls, model 3. Traded the car in a couple months ago. It was ok, as a car, but I hated what it had become synonymous with so it was wort…

If someone was hung up on only paying when they need care, the business model needs to support that would probably look a lot like an emergency room or urgent care facility. For me…

Direct primary care was a completely game-changing improvement in healthcare for me. $95/mo to basically subscribe to a local doctor. Covers most things other than tests or surgery…

Agreed. Showing ads on TVs is beyond the pale. (Sorry, I just had to. In fact, thoug, I would be furious if my tv injected ads onto my source material)

Indeed- comment was intended to be on the openbsd release announcement. No idea how it ended up on this one.

Wow, it supports m1 and m2 Macs! I kind of love the idea of getting back to a proper Unix environment on a reasonably current Mac.

It’s only a matter of time before corporations are run by AI. Add that to “corporate personhood” and what do we get?

There are settings under the accessibility heading that let you adjust transparency and some other things. They’ve also gotten less effective over time. And they don’t get rid of r…

Knowing the original plaintext is a big leg up in cracking encryption.

Can we recall the elected officials who are shirking their duty to impeach an executive who is behaving unlawfully?

I’m renovating an old building that doesn’t currently have any HVAC. I tried like hell to get a geothermal heat pump set up for it. This entailed researching companies that make go…

Been running it for years It just works and always has

Good thing there’s no conflict of interest in the owner of SpaceX advocating for the destruction of a successful international space project.

Good question. I wonder if the Romans knew they were getting dumber from sweetening their food with lead.

Where you’re going wrong is thinking that it’s intended to work for patients at all. If you look at it as a pump that’s intended to provide the worst possible care with the most fr…

Funny you should say this– I'm working on that right now. :-) I've had a complete Mazda 3 badge set from Fleabay in a drawer in my garage that I ordered when he first started skewi…

I bought a Tesla in 2019 - back when it was the Eco conscious car nerd choice, and before he started skewing right. I liked it so much I got solar for my house from Tesla, along wi…

The UNIX philosophy (about which there’s a book by the same name by Michael Gancarz, and which I highly recommend) Is that each tool should do one thing and do it well. The old sch…
