I find it obnoxious the way that you're doing something and get smacked in the face, all of a sudden, with NVDAs addon updates dialogue.

Als grosser Mittelfinger für diejenigen, insbesondere in der queeren Bubble, die damit ein Problem haben.
Und allgemein als flauschig toller Hai.

Алла Пугачёва выпустила новую песню под названием "Давай просто жить" – предновогодний подарок для поклонников.
В песне звучат строки:
«За место под солнцем опять готовы друг с другом стреляться,
Да где ж оно, счастье, где оно, счастье, где оно, счастье? Не знаю...
Вновь падения и взлеты, боль и успех,
И билет в один конец лишь есть у всех,
По судьбе летим неровно — то вниз, то вверх,
Некуда спешить, некуда спешить —
Ой, давай просто жить!»

#Microsoft is really a horrible company. Seems to only care about investors. Certainly not customers. I'm so happy to be using a Linux desktop and no longer using Windows.

A blackout in San Francisco yesterday cut power to traffic lights. Drivers coped; Waymos just stopped moving, often in intersections, stranding passengers and compounding gridlock.

Přátelé máme tu zimní slunovrat. To znamená, že se nám začínají krátit noci a prodlužovat dny.
Hlavně to ale znamená, že je čas otevřít solarogafy, které od letního slunovratu (21. června) snímají dráhu slunce na obloze. Že ještě nemáte #solarograf? Nové video jak si jeden vyrobit už teď na VHSkách

YAML is such a stupid, stupid format for human-written config files. I've just spent an hour finding a two-space "error" in netplan. Using spaces (or tabs) for semantics was (and still is) a mistake in makefiles, it was a mistake in Occam, it's still a mistake in Python and it's a mistake in YAML. It's a mistake whenever humans are supposed to write these files.

this might be a weird question, but are you always truly genuine with your friends or family, or do you catch yourself saying things that sort of give the impression of connection without really saying anything? or maybe you intend to actually have a conversation, but end up just sort of landing on lines that are sort of aesthetically pleasing without substance? Or maybe you notice people doing that to you sometimes
is there a word for this behavior? are we talking at each other instead of to?
I feel myself very slowly reverting back to my pre 2021 era and no. No no we will not be doing that. I am absolutely not here for it and NGL I really really fucking hate myself right now. Stupid stupid fucking stupid.
Don't doubt yourself. This shit is hard and takes a lot of practice. It will be easier if you don't beat yourself up when you screw up. One thing that helps me is to literally count to 3 in my head. Usually if I'm about to say something I'll regret, that helps me at least rework the thought so that it doesn't come out as harsh. Anything that temporarily interrupts your ability to respond should work.

I'm glad they took away that award from Claire Obscura for having AI generated assets during development. I hope we maintain our integrity and only give awards to video game companies that abuse their employees with terrible working conditions and mandatory overtime so they can't even be present at their child's birth
Ing's extremely excruciatingly annoying when you try to follow the instructions from a Github repo, only to find out that they are all wrong or, at least, don't work as advertised. Also, these sorts of hickups usually happen with repos that rely heavily on Python modules... :)

IMHO: I spent a couple of hours listening to a bunch of top songs generated by Suno v5, their latest model. Sad to say, but it’s comparable to the average music on Spotify from the last two decades. The key word is average though. The mixing, production, performance, arranging, and songwriting are all passable. Sometimes you notice slight audio artifacts or too many words crammed with awkward phrasing, but people wouldn’t even notice as background music in a random coffee shop or airport. #AI

It wouldn't be all bad if for the question who's gonna earn money on that? Thinking out loud... Imagine someone hacks Suno one day! What sort of music will come out of this? LOL
@vick21 I wonder what the saturation will do to music industry. Digital music production and social media democratized for indie artists, but now AI is democratizing mass production. Anyone with good music taste can do it, and people are already floodding streaming services with AI music. I read about an Uber driver with no music background making a few hundred bucks a month by generating AI tracks. Also some AI generated songs already hit number one on the charts.

Guess what, #Nextcloud? #OneDrive has a "Copy Link" in the file context menu. And guess what? They also open a dialog, like with whom to share, for editing or for viewing, but this dialog is fully accessible. Webbish, yes (I would prefer a native Windows API one), but fully accessible.
And guess what even more? #GoogleDrive also has "Copy Link" in their context menu. Aren't they secure enough? I don't know. But they are *convenient*. And *accessible*.
UPD. this post was inspired by my struggles with sharing Nextcloud links and by this ongoing discussion. TL;DR: The option was there, it worked like a charm, but then it was removed because of "security".

@acarson there is no real alternative for self-hosted clouds, unfortunately. And self-hosting is far cheaper.
Speaking of self-hosting, I'm planning on getting back into Indieweb stuff this coming year, and I think it's time to start self-hosting some apps.
WTF would I want an AI to preview the link, Firefox.

I don't really care much about cerifications of any sort so I can't be sure I'm describing the right one, but I remember when working at a small ISP/datacenter we wanted to get SOC II (??) compliance to please some customer and the process was like this:
Me: what are the requirements?
🤖 We have to document all our processes and procedures
Me: and then what?
🤖: an auditor will verify (by quizzing you in front of a computer screen they don't understand) to prove you're following the documented processes and procedures
Me: okay, but like what do we have to do? How long do we have to retain customer backups, for example?
🤖: there is no requirement. How long are you retaining customer backups?
Me: well we had that failure so right now we only have 6 months
🤖: so document 6 months
Me: can we just say one month? And then we exceed our documented retention by a good margin?
🤖: yes
Me: this is a scam isn't it?
