  • First of all, fuck them.

    Secondly, thank you for working on this app. I know Roku is a bit of a liability, and I'll eventually have to move to something open source, but it's been my main media player for a couple of years and I've been very happy with it. o7

  • One Pink Floyd album and now we have to deprogram everyone's misconceptions

  • Sounds like he got to visit a pedo-island.

  • I feel like I'm having a Mandela Effect moment because this seems very familiar.

    I did some searching and it reminded me that there was a shop called Tesseract Computers in my home town.

    For the blue cube, are you perhaps thinking of an SGI workstation of some sort? Some of those were blue cubes.

  • The problem with the phone thing is that banks (though not all of them) limit you to two operating system vendors: Google and Apple. Is that better than Visa and MC?

  • I saw it last night and really liked it. The book seemed perfect for an adaptation, and I think they pulled off the tricky bits.

    I'm old so I've seen lots of movies, but mostly in the distant past. In the 90s it was almost a weekly thing. This century it's very rare.

  • machines will be able to 'think like humans' when it happens

    Maybe AGI is just a brain-destroying pandemic?

  • Hang on, is a sphere just a torus that poops out it's mouth?

  • I think a web of trust is a much more powerful concept. Users should be able to choose how they distribute and delegate trust.

    The tree invite thing is what private torrent trackers have been doing for a long time.

  • You can audit the code but something like:

    The rate of commits and new features seems rather high for a single person working by themselves

    Is a huge problem in itself IMO. It implies there's no real human oversight of the project.

  • Wouldn't the transmission be directional to a satellite or possibly other aircraft? It doesn't seem like something that would be useful on the ground.

  • Conventional cheerleading is just doing it to cheer on a team.

    So they only have amateur predators?

  • It's because CEOs don't play cyberpunk, but they did try chatgpt and got an immediate boner thinking about all the people they could lay off.

  • That's the scary thing. It can easily create more code than it can understand, and do it faster than human understanding can keep up with.

  • Please be this

  • Yes, and you can do the same thing to your child's non-root account. The point of the California law is to allow admins (parents) to do that.

  • Furthermore, a peer review process is planned, through which the consortium members will mutually check and certify their operating systems and smartphone or tablet models. “This is intended to create transparency and replace trust with traceability.”

    Still doesn't sound very open.

    I should be able to tell my bank to only trust devices running an OS signed by the grapheneos key, and more importantly I should be able to tell them to trust an OS signed by my key.

    Edit: I don't mean to shit on this too hard. It might be the best next step.

  • Finally a Nova Scotia thing on NCD

  • The difference now is the machine can churn out way more data (e.g. pull requests) than a human can ever deal with.
