If vibe-coding is wrecking Windows 11 and Office now … just wait until Windows 12 sees the light of day! Ohhh boy, will that ever be some infinite-monkeys-on-typewriters-shite!

I also like FauxPilot.

faux - adj - artificial or imitation; fake.

Not to* be confused with the OSS alternative, also named fauxpilot.

The war ends when Israel decides it is over since they clearly own our government, financial sector, our tech overlords and soon most of our news outlets. Considering that they’ve been at war with their neighbors for over 50 years I would not hold my breath.

Fairphone is such an obvious partner here I guess that’s why they went with a Chinese manufacturer instead.

I am sure nothing bad will come from that decision.1, 2, 3

Seriously, though. Why?

In fact, I actually prefer jamming on my Linux boxes because of pulseeffects/easyeffects and its really nice EQ, AutoGain and other plugins.

This video is penguin/click bait and not a meme. Maybe I missed the joke.

Is it easier to secure, monitor fewer, bigger reactors or thousands of* small ones? Accidents are still going to happen and I know which scenario makes more sense to me. Especially in light of Trump’s recent push to deregulate nuclear energy, kill the EPA, and pretty much any other kind of sensible management efforts of technology that is great until something goes wrong then it quickly becomes a multi-generational clusterfuck.

Solar, batteries and long-range transmission infrastructure just makes too much sense I guess.

Given that these same objecting companies have had tens of thousands of Indian developers, with source code access for iOS and Android, on their payrolls for decades now … I am not sure why they would suddenly be worried about this now.

If you are using a VPN app it may be intercepting and proxying web traffic for you (whether you realize it or not). This would explain why it works when you ‘turn off the vpn’.

If your VPN provider requires an app, well, that sucks and you should consider using another provider that does not.
