as someone who uses tailscale: exactly this.

i have my homelab only reachable via tailscale and can access everything i would ever want on the go that way. it was a matter of 15 min to get it all working.

You can update Win 10 to Win 11 IoT version for unsupported devices, by using something like massgrave

money that is stolen from the public at a certain point is really damaging, especially when people think they can get away with it.

some non-violent offenders definitely need to be put into the same prison as violent ones

i don't like normalizing people hoarding things they don't need in order to sell them for way higher prices to other people that do, do you?

the most fair distribution for limited sought-after resources that are inconsequential (like domain names) are raffles. let people apply in a 4-week window and then randomly assign it to one of the applicants.

then don't allow reselling, just allow giving it back and do a raffle again

MacBooks have the best value/money ratio at the moment. The combination of battery life, processing power and touch pad UX are unmatched

The human shields narrative has long been debunked.

Many many countries got sanctioned into oblivion or color-revolutionized into US-loyalty for far far less (often just for not being aligned with the US).

It is even more sickening and outrageous if you view it through that lens.

At this point I think that would be a more sane outcome than whatever it is we have right now.

it will be so satisfying to see them crash and burn

Social credit does not exist the way you think it does

you can save even more co2 and costs by leaving the "into space" part out

The web of trust finally becomes necessary and thus useful.

GNU was onto something apparently

The future will be AI agents social engineering their way into projects -> so basically commoditized social engineering as a service

For me personally I found Zigs AI stance and the artisanal mindset very attractive.

So much so that I am at the moment doing the ziglings exercises and learning it over Rust (which I gave up on some time in the past, because it didn't spark "joy" for me; so far Zig does).

Sure, for now it is just a hobby programming lang to me, but it might become more than that.

It is always the middle men that ruin everything, even in art.

Jareds comment aged like milk

I think this is a very sane stack.

Will probably become a hassle when going planet-scale (tm), but I think for most use cases this should be fine.

yeah it's great if you want to be dependent on US and German political interests

Google also chooses to be a US company even thought the US is supporting a genocide and is doing an illegal war against a foreign country (again)

You could argue Signal is the most "moral" here, but even then they don't really allow self-hosted backends and refuse to open-source their setup

not if it is one of the companies famous for going the extra mile of being "evil" / a corporate shit hole stealing every thought you ever have to better sell you stuff you don't need

i never even knew they had e2e available, so they cannot have been too serious about people opting in.

a shame that they now have to shut it off because people didn't use something they didn't know existed /s

For people on the spectrum masking is basically roleplaying a "normal" person, by learning behavior that is associated with not being singled out as a weirdo.

This takes a lot of processing power and constant vigilance in order to not drop the mask which is quite exhausting.

Here is one study looking at the connection between neurodiversity and substance use: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3965675/

For me it is social anxiety / being on edge around more than 4-5 people (apply from 1 person upwards if they are strangers) and having sensory overload because it is a bar / pub / whatever.

A lifetime of masking leaves its mark on a nervous system, i.e.

And alcohol down regulates / takes the edge off

You might look into neurodiversity / trauma in your life (if you haven't done so already)

Rooting for Stalwart to gain traction: https://stalw.art/

EDIT: Not affiliated, I just want it to already be the standard

Even more especially given it is a choice to be a completely unempathetic prick who thrives on being controversial and edgy

In many contexts "already tried" does not apply under "this and this conditions" though.

You can try the same thing under different contexts and it will probably yield different results (at least in any context that is organizational / social)

how much is there to improve and polish for a taskbar? at most it will be keeping up with macOS throwing breaking changes at you and maybe one or the other weird bug.

but isn't that it?

The EU is a horribly intransparent and dubiously democratic institution.

As a normal citizen you have no real possibility to hold MEPs accountable other then writing an angry E-Mail.

In an actually democratic system politicians would be in their position only by mercy of the people and can be voted down from their position anytime if enough people petition for it. (and not just maybe be called back when elections at home plummet)

Politicians should be afraid of the people and not the other way round.
