@pre@boing.worldLike all the rest of the nerds, I did a bit of tech support on family computers.
They're all popping up windows from scam virus scanners lying that subscriptions need to be renewed or machines are unprotected. People don't know how to remove these things. Luckily they also don't really know how to pay the subscription.
Their phones are updating on them. Changing where buttons used to be. Removing options. Forcing people to register to use they things they have been doing for years.
They don't know how to register.
Things pop up asking for passwords and they have no idea who is asking or which password to use.
I tell them that I don't really understand why they keep using Windows now it is so shitty and awful. They say they don't know how to use anything else. The fact they don't really know how to use windows either doesn't seem to register.
The tech corporations have given up completely on being user friendly. They are all deliberately user hostile and exploitative now.
Corporate tech is terrible. The industry is failing it's users, abusing them. People don't even know there is any other way. They are just giving up on achieving their tasks until someone can fix the pop-ups and subscription boxes and passwords and 2fa for them.
Tech sucks now. Sucks hard.

So I grew up somewhere never needing an ID for anything, other than a driving license when I was very occasionally driving a car. I wasn’t carrying an ID every day until I was in my 30s.
It’s a relatively new thing that travel, buying certain things, alcohol consumption etc requires a photo ID.
All of this surveillance and privacy-invasive shit (make people carry around the address where they live, wtf?) has been pressed into existence to “protect the children” and in the name of “fighting criminals”.

@hex@kolektiva.socialI have some critiques of "Fighting in the Streets." The last chapter would get you killed. The coms advice are absolutely terrible, which makes me question other elements of the book. But it does provide a framework for thinking about what a militant resistance looks like, and what framework needs to exist to make it possible.
It's a short read, and worth it for the thought experiment. You can read TM 31-210 all you want, but it won't do anything for you without the social framework that makes more than one attack possible. It always comes back to community building, even if (especially if) you're wanting to make sure militant resistance is an option on the table.

They disarmed a man who was lawfully concealing a firearm and then executed him in the street, in front of multiple witnesses.

@thomasfuchs@hachyderm.ioIt’s funny how many people have no idea how to buy used stuff for non-inflated prices.
Here’s some tips to get you started (for eBay):
1. The first thing about eBay is that most things listed as “buy now” are overpriced—otherwise someone else would have bought it already. You have to always look at sold listings to see what things are actually worth.
2. Use saved searches specifically limited in price and distance.
3. Always sort by newly listed for “Buy Now” and ending soonest for auctions.
4. Look for older buy now listings and make offers. The older the listing the lower you offer. Some tools like flippah.net show you the listed date directly without having to dig deep on the eBay website. You can make offers even when the button isn’t there, just send a message.
5. Never buy anything from sellers with 0 feedback or less than a 98% or so rating.
A general thing to remember is that unless you buy new stuff or see a listing from a store (some categories have a lot of stores, e.g. cameras) you’re likely to deal directly with a private seller and a human being. Be polite and respectful but don’t be afraid to say no. Don’t make insulting offers.
@michabbb@social.vivaldi.net🔓 Problem 2: Zero type safety. Your age property can be int, string, null, array - PHP accepts anything without complaints. Type errors only surface at runtime, often in production.
🛠️ Problem 3: IDEs and tooling are blind. No autocomplete suggestions, no refactoring support, static analysis tools like PHPStan and Psalm cannot detect issues. You lose all modern developer experience benefits.

@mgorny@social.treehouse.systemsI'm building webkit-gtk right now. It's one of these messy packages where a few source files need a lot of memory to compile, and ninja can randomly order jobs so that all of them suddenly start compiling simultaneously. So to keep things going smoothly without OOM-ing, I've been dynamically adjusting the available job count via steve the #jobserver.
While doing that, I've noticed that ninja isn't taking new jobs immediately after I increased the job count. So I've started debugging steve, and couldn't find out anything wrong with it. Finally, I've looked into ninja and realized how lazy their code is.
So, there are two main approaches to acquiring job tokens. Either you do blocking reads, and therefore wait for a token to become available, or you use polling to get noticed when it becomes available. Ninja instead does non-blocking reads, and if there are no more tokens available… it waits till one of its own jobs finish.
This roughly means that as other processes release tokens, ninja won't take them until one of its own jobs finish. And if ninja didn't manage to acquire any job tokens to begin with, it is just running a single process via implicit slot, and that process finishing provides it with the only chance to acquire additional tokens. So realistically speaking, as long as there are other build jobs running in parallel, ninja is going to need to be incredibly lucky to ever get a job token, since all other processes will grab the available tokens immediately.
This isn't something that steve can fix.
