I really wish you all weren't so cocksure about letting shit like HTTP/1.1 die.

Gonna miss the last vestige of the web that doesn't require wireshark to fuckin' parse it.

I kinda hate that HTTP/2 is straight binary and requires wireshark to make any sense of it, and that http/3 is basically just quic, which is google's love child of weird shit.

@mhoye The thing to remember is that thanks to LLMs being pushed to do all the actual engineering, in 5-10 years as people age out, retire, get promoted to management or just go live in log cabins in the woods... we won't have anyone left who can fix any of this when it breaks *anyway* so not being able to human-parse things won't really matter so much because everyone has subsecond attention spans and refuses to parse even well-written logs and error messages *today*....

I wanted to check up on Battlefield 6, not out of interest but to see how EA dropped the ball.

Turns out, they dropped the whole damn anvil with it. The game will not boot without TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot enabled on the machine. This is on top of Kernel level anti-cheat and requiring an EA account. :cirno_laugh:

@LeftCoast, only my grandchilds, but this is business of my childs. Anyway, Amazon isn't a reliable store to buy something, IMHO, in Amazon, apart to pay for the article, you pay also with your data, sold to third parties. Better, if exist the possibility (mostly), to buy the article direct from the manufacturer without a data hog in the middle. Almost all have a webpage and a catalogue with their products.

The power of saying no. I've always felt like the little white lie was great as a social lubricant - e.g., "Oh I'd love to come to your housewarming party but I've already got plans that day" when you know full well that you're available but you just don't wanna go.

But after a while, making excuses and remembering them later gets to be stressful. Especially for me because I'm horrible at lying lol. So I've learned to say things like "Thanks for inviting me, but I'm gonna sit this one out." It's a polite but clear 'no' and now I don't have to keep up a fib going forward.

To be fair, sometimes people don't like being told no, but I've been surprised to see that they'll usually accept it gracefully.

My family (just my dads side i guess?) is horrible at taking no for an answer. It took me most of my life to realise they needed to be firmly (and quite literally) told to fuck off in order for them to take a NO seriously. Learning that is probably the only reason i still have any kind of relationship with my dad, i don't care to interact with the rest of them.

"No" is a complete sentence.

Fantastic news out of Tucson!

None of this is inevitable. Not "AI", not data centers, not the surrendering of public water resources, not the handing over of electrical grid priorities to big tech

Tucson City Council rejects Project Blue data center amid intense community pressure

The Tucson city council voted unanimously Wednesday against bringing the massive and water-devouring Project Blue data center — tied to tech giant Amazon — into city limits.

The Guardian has identified the self-described “national socialist” behind an openly extremist YouTube channel that in just over two months has accumulated 50,000 subscribers, seen more than 2.3m views, and likely made thousands of dollars from YouTube’s revenue-sharing monetization program.

Johnathan Christopher “Chris” Booth, 37, lives in the unincorporated community of Coral, a part of Maple Valley Township in Michigan’s Montcalm county, and is married to a senior local Republican official.

Booth has published more than 70 YouTube videos since May on his Shameless Sperg account, whose graphic design elements feature stylized SS bolts. Titles of his videos – generally a recording of him delivering his views direct to camera – include: “Why I Dislike Jews. It’s not complicated”, “Black Crimes Matter: Never Relax” and “Jews and FBI hate you and your free speech”.

...

Booth is married to Meghyn “Meg” Booth, the Republican treasurer of Maple Valley Township. Meg Booth has “liked” several posts with extremist themes on Chris Booth’s Facebook account with her personal account. Chris Booth’s Facebook page also features extensive racist propaganda along with iconography often employed by neo-Nazis.

Why is land/sky so cleanly split between mammals/birds?
Like, I'm aware of there being exceptions like Penguins, Ostriches, and Bats. But in general, why is there such a distinct land/air split between mammals and birds? Why don't mammals share the ground with ecosystems of plant- and meat-eating walking birds? Why didn't we get birds that evolved to slither like snakes, or tunnel like rodents? Why isn't it (land+sky) all just mammals, where we'd have parrot- and vulture-like bats that don't lay eggs? If we started the simulation again, might things like this evolve?

I suspect it's partly just coincidence. Prior to the K–Pg extinction, the sky was ruled by non-birds. Pterosaurs. In fact, the late Cretaceous saw some of the largest creatures to ever fly, like Quetzalcoatlus and Hatzegopteryx.

At the same time, it was also not mammals that ruled the ground, it was, as many an eight year-old can attest, dinosaurs.

The K–Pg extinction event may have killed off all the non-avian dinosaurs and pterosaurs, in part because of their larger size. So the very thing that made them "rule" before is what killed them off, and conversely, the very thing that kept avian dinosaurs (i.e., birds) and mammals from ruling during the Cretaceous is what allowed them to survive that event and evolve to fill the many niches vacated by non-avian dinosaurs after the event.
