Sounds like classic troll behavior.

I haven’t checked out the state of HURD in a while but possibly that as well

A couple months ago they released an aarch64 port of GNU Hurd and there seem to be at least a couple people working on it.

I agree. There is literally 0 reason to buy anything from Apple when there are much better and much cheaper options that are already well supported by GNU/Linux. I will never understand people who will go out of their way to waste money on the next big thing from Apple only to get Linux on it.

I would love for there to be a simple way to just interface with a graphics card directly on a low level w/o any vulkan/d3d/opengl crap in between. Just have the kernel map it to a file in /dev and to set it up and make it do stuff you just fopen() that file and write commands to it.

There are 64-bit Pentium IIIs?

Completely agree! I like to limit myself to HTTP 1.1 and any website I'll ever make will just be simple handwritten HTML with some CSS. I like to use elinks and xlinks for hypertext but in some cases -- like lemmy -- I'm unfortunately forced to use a bloated browser that supports JabbaScript and black magic (which makes no sense because online forums, message boards, blogs, wikis, etc. in the past all used to work without any JS). I like Gopher/Gemini a lot but I find it hard to discover interesting holes/capsules.

For a moment I thought "Did something big happen that I missed?" and then I watched the video. I'm always amazed by the stupidity of the average yankee.

The "sit back and relax"-strategy really does work.

The stock market is basically gambling and designed to serve the bourgeoisie. Better to read theory than books on "how to make money".

By the early 2010s, at least two tycoons had seen their net worth approach that decabillion-dollar barrier, only to land in jail on corruption charges instead. That is not to say the charges were baseless, only that the choice of targets did appear to reflect a lingering, levelling tendency among China’s leaders.

In this new era, it’s dangerous to get too rich. Stories abound of the state launching investigations against this business figure or that financier. The pressure is drying up venture capital funds, scaring the young away from lucrative professions such as investment banking. The number of millionaires leaving China has been rising and peaked last year at 15,000 — dwarfing the exodus from any other nation.

xi pointing at the screen Hilarious shit. It's almost as if it's impossible to get rich through honest and ethical means.

 

In 2021, senior officials from the Biden Administration, including the White House, repeatedly pressured our teams for months to censor certain COVID-19 content, including humor and satire, and expressed a lot of frustration with our teams when we didn't agree. Ultimately, it was our decision whether or not to take content down, and we own our decisions, including COVID-19-related changes we made to our enforcement in the wake of this pressure. I believe the government pressure was wrong, and I regret that we were not more outspoken about it. I also think we made some choices that, with the benefit of hindsight and new information, we wouldn't make today. Like I said to our teams at the time, I feel strongly that we should not compromise our content standards due to pressure from any Administration in either direction -- and we're ready to push back if something like this happens again.
