1·14 days agoSome people would stand for that sort of thing but frankly I can’t imagine why…
3·23 days agoI think that the era of platform locked internal tools is close to being over, at least for smaller organizations.
AI sucks for innumerable reasons, but the ability to create internal tooling for specialized systems is now something that organizations of smaller and smaller sizes can now take advantage of. IE, write a printer interface that does xyz for our machine and integrates with CUPS instead of a windows print server. Now we can save a Windows server license and an expensive proprietary software license.
AI is still absolutely terrible though. Never open a port to anything vibe coded ever.
How it started
How it’s going
7·1 month agoYes and as far as I can tell, they all have that as their system. Also the changing of the password every quarter which has proven to actually decrease password security and increase password reuse.
I should say, if anyone knows a bank with proper modern online security protocols I am willing to listen.
Occam’s razor probably points to having access to graph paper in school and connecting corners.
Why an S?
That all has to do with Cthulu as S is widely known as his favorite letter.
Fair point but I am not going to do all my shopping exclusively out of catalogs and mail in my payment with cash.
Its a shitty situation but short of government regulation (ha) nothing is going to change.
I appreciate the effort but my banking apps still rely on 2FA through SMS. They aren’t interested in implementing a technology that is more secure or even one that is different than what they have already, especially for a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of their user base.
I justbwish that they would make the whole phone thicker to match the camera sticking out.
Put some more battery in there.
I think so, just a relatively famous copypasta.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux
Never pass up the opportunity to pee.

Also,
Dont cheap out on anything that keeps you off the ground. (Tires, shoes, mattress etc)
I’m not saying you have to do it but you can get the standard Microsoft fonts on Linux, they are just an extra download.
I would like to plug Mailo. Its explicitly privacy focused, has a free tier and even has child inboxes with more restrictions. Its like $75 per year and I have had nothing but great luck with it.
5·2 months agoKind of tastes like Sambuca to me, and then the aftertaste is so bitter it seems like you need to call poison control.
2·2 months agoDont make me have to defend Walmart, Reaganism fueled Walmart destroyed retail completely in the 90s.
I remember it sounding a lot cooler than that.
