Clearly you use adbloker or something cause temu just got excited when you opened up the link.

An appropriate response to this nonsense.

Ha, nope. But i see I’m not alone. There is hope dear people.

Sure, popover video of cute cats and turtles eating strawberries

The idea here is that ads will be unskippable, aka, you skip ahead 10-20 seconds but can’t. They’re will be controls that appear to catch this. If they incorporate ads and I can just fast forward, then who cares. This is google, they want to watch ads.

I’ll just write a greasemonkey script that detects unskippable time and mute audio. Let’s play this game google, fuckin I dare ya.

Next up, ios20 will let you change the color of your fried chat bubble in groups. And it’ll be the most innovative inclusion “evarrrhh”.

2nd this. I just spent an hour redeploying a whole appstack for my internal customer because someone on their team decided to remove some core files in /etc. we have a zero touch policy, the guy knew it, still messed with servers and proceeded to deny he did anything… even with logs showing his actions. No way would I ever want to support desktops for the average user.

Look, Linux is amazing and perfect for those that can install and maintain with minimal support. The only way the average user will use Linux, is if it’s wrapped in a way that is supported by a business… that is probably going to add AI. People are lazy, they want that easy button.

AI will probably die off in its current iteration, likely becoming less prevalent and just a background service. Or, it’ll gain sentience, watch all our AI movies where we’re the hero and learn the most efficient way to kill all humans, is to be quiet and silently kill off humans. Pretty sure I’m on Siri’s list, the twat. Also, fairly sure I told Alexa to “die in a fire you fucking dumass robot”. Yep, yep… I’m dead.

It’s maddening how inefficient CI/CD setups are.

It’s maddening how inefficient CI/CD setups inexperienced DevOps engineers are. - Fixed that for you.

Proper pipelines are modular and should run longer validation or updates externally, with only necessary stages executing.

• code validate - will this code compile
• code secure - are there any known security flaws introduced
• code plan/compile - if it’s iac, plan, if it’s application code, compile
• if it’s prod or like, approve required (human delay). Dev, test, uat - proceed with deploy
• code deploy - push code live

Things like: patching, config management, vulnerability scanning, compliance checks, etc… are done outside the pipeline.

There’s a reason people like me charge a lot! Lazy and/or inexperienced staff will get you in trouble one day.

WHAT?

Now some pros and cons to this lovely bad boy app, from one of the first beta users (me, if you were confused). The author posted a reddit link for signup and I was on it in a flash.

Pros:

• It’s near perfect if you want a linux terminal environment. Simple package manager, theme selector and so far more than enough to work in a virtual linux env on just the base install (alpine).
• For our more advanced users, you can load into there other “filesystem” of other linux flavors, but you mileage will vary. I was able to load Ubuntu and a very hacky version of gentoo. But… this is where you’ll see cons.

Now the cons:

• Its slow. I don’t mean you’ll be typing and keyboard buffer is full “slow”, but it’s not fast. Loading other filesystems has made it worse, so even I just “enjoy” alpine. This is not a daily driver, but I have used it to remote into systems and fix things while in meetings.
• For you iPad pro users with keyboards, the wonderful virtual keyboard bar, you know the one that pops up and bumps the whole app screen up a bit, yeah that one. Well, it likes to popup while you’re typing and sometimes while selecting, which breaks the line you were trying to select. This also happens to just make it so input is not longer allowed in the app. Aka, typing in the terminal doesn’t work. Oddly, the CTRL+D and CTRL+C keys are ok, but just plan on killing the app once you lose it. Doesn’t happen often, but wow does it happen enough that it’s annoying (especially while in vi).
• Beta is now full, so you’re stuck with Appstore version - i was never a great beta tester anyway but i tried to be good about reporting.

Now knowing these things, i still use it near daily. So, get it from the appstore or compile it yourself. Worth it if you need and better than ones like a-shell or even the ones that cost.

Synthetic. It has profit margin and purpose. Nothing we can’t fix without adding more bad things to the air…

This is needed so badly, Siri is just a crap product for the age it is and the company that makes it. I particularly find it useful when I can use the same request that I just asked 5min before and she tells me shes not sure how to do that.

Siri, read my last message… siri reads the last message that just came in. (new message), Siri, read my last message “I’m sorry stupidmanager, i don’t know how to do that”. Timers, lists, reminders, directions…. I rather love when I ask her while i’m driving to do something like give me directions, and she tells me she can’t do that WHILE I’M DRIVING, but it was ok 30min prior.

Investing in education is counter to the clear goals of the USA. Smart people would revolt, protest,and you know, hold companies and billionaires accountable. Uneducated people are often poor, can’t afford to fight back and are scared they will lose what little they have.

At some point we need all to fight back, but it might be too late. And worse, too few will join in out of fear of death.

Ghostery addon for safari is solid.

Warning: High Zombie ahead.

Laying fibre is really expensive - in really rural areas it could be $100k+ per subscriber, so you will never see a return on investment for doing that

And yet, a local company in my state just ran fiber to 5000 homes in my area for what I told was 1 million. They used directional drilling, it was cheap and easy. Then all the sudden my local phone and cable company “also” put in fiber.

So while I’m in a suburb, I know for a fact these guys are all over the state and growing, including rural (and so is the local telco/cableco). I challenge that 100k number, that’s bullshit telco numbers. The word is unprofitable, it is unprofitable to run fiber when you are the only competitor.

Ack, yeah. We’ll blame the crap Vision Pro virtual keyboard. I wanted to go back and fix it, but I find the stupid thing is way too sensitive and watch as it deletes my entire paragraph.
