:D

No support for the Fold? ;-;

I’m going to give it a try :)

I’ve been allergic to pet dander my whole life, and I will usually break out in hives just from being in the same room as someone who owns a dog. Yet, I’m still expected to pretend that I love their precious furry angel. Lately, I just let people know that couldn’t be further from the truth. That said, I absolutely adore cats. But I’m just as allergic and would never own one.

Apple’s App Store has included this “feature” for several years. Gross.

Interesting. Scary.

Well duh

So cute! The roast site made me laugh, but this is wholesome. The world needs both ;)

This is pretty hysterical

I’ve been looking forward to this release!

I highly recommend “Essentials of Compilation” by Jeremy Siek, which explores the same nano-pass approach using both Python and Racket. His course is easily one of my favorites.

I understand that people feel strongly about Snaps, but I don’t know about saying that they’re a security vulnerability on the basis of offering automatic updates.

Safari refers to it as “Privacy-Preserving Ad Measurement”, and Chrome includes an option as part of its “Privacy Sandbox.” Please have the decency to do a basic google search before being an asshole :)

Literally every browser has this option, and it gives users a choice. If you use an ad blocker, it has this option as well and has had it for several years now.

End-to-end encryption stops being secure… at the end… Who would’ve thought

I think that a lot of the recent GNOME design choices are merely because they’re trying to improve usability on mobile devices. It also just so happens that Apple is trying to make the macOS desktop closer to iOS to encourage people to move from Windows. They have similar goals, which leads to similar design choices. And all design is derivative, anyway. Who cares.

This is what I do. It’s still nice to a have a digital content stream, but it’s more meaningful when you curated it and aren’t distracted by comments

It’s sort of annoying that they removed that feature in the first place. Recently, I’ve been using the Nala frontend for APT, since it maintains history similar to DNF/yum, so I try to install all packages through the command-line. The Ubuntu App Center has always been a mild disaster…

I work in semiconductors, and I don’t think the numbers are necessarily unfair. There are a lot of small companies and academic research labs receiving funding from the CHIPS act, and their work gets done faster when there are fabs in the country to tape out their designs.
