90s script kiddie here - a bunch of the shit you can do as a minor with low/no consequences becomes SERIOUS FUCKING BUSINESS as an adult with assets. It’s just not worth the risk to keep dicking around with things that might land you in prison or cost you everything you have.
YOU’RE NOT MY SUPERVISOR
I mean, global warming us slowly into extinction is a pretty AI way to go about it
I need this blended with the to Kanye love Kanye meme stat

If anyone’s interested in helping break twatter’s stranglehold on brief discussion content encourage your organization (school, company, nonprofit, lab or other org) to host their own Mastodon instance in addition to email. This is how we get people on federated platforms and off of Musk’s nazi-friendly platform, by making it easy to use and ubiquitous.
Reddit is new facebook at this point. A friend’s mom made a reddit account to upvote cat pictures a couple of weeks ago.
Yup, you can find him on Mastodon now: https://wandering.shop/@cstross/112274383742505743
Why stop at five? Start a gofundme and send any that want to go!
If: you’re a starred contact and call twice within 10 minutes and I happen to have the phone at hand and I’m pretty sure you have something important to say I’ll probably pick it up.
That happens about once or twice a year. We invented voicemail so we can speak when it works well for both parties.
An E keyed socket should provide everything an A+E card needs to function. Plug it in and test it out. Generally with m.2 if the card fits the socket you’re good to go (just don’t expect a CNVi card to work on a non CNVi platform.)
I wrote snapshot hooks for Arch that fire before installing or upgrading packages and I have a simple shell alias that I can use to fire off a manual snapshot any time I need one. If a package breaks in an inconvenient way and can’t just be dowgrade
d back to function or I have some other time pressure I can just point my root partition at a clone of my most recent snapshot and reboot to roll back. I don’t usually bother rebooting into a cloned snapshot to test changes as I can just perform the same steps to roll back and the automated rolling snapshots mean I don’t need to baby anything to have the same protection.
This would bother me more if I hadn’t switched to Linux full time 5y ago. Microsoft is gonna Microsoft I guess.
I really hope GabeN has a continuity plan that involves a nonprofit governance board when he’s no longer in the picture. I don’t even want to imagine valve as a publicly traded company (or owned by a private equity company for that matter.)

We’ve drastically simplified and made tech accessible to everyone with a smartphone, you no longer need computer skills to get on the internet to shop or participate in social activities. Kids use apps’ platforms for the things we had to build and host ourselves 20y ago.
