Win11 is filled with tiny little bugs.
This piss me out more than all the big stuff like Co-pilot that I can just not use or disable.
For example:
-Ctrl-C not copying.
-File that refuse to be dragged and dropped unless I close the file manager and restart it

after I renamed them.
And all kind of other small weirdness that just make my day more painful.

Mirror image pheromones help beetles 'swipe right' to find mates
There are many ways to communicate with prospective romantic partners. If you are a Japanese scarab beetle, it's a matter of distinguishing left from right. New work from U.S. and Chinese scientists, published this week in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, shows how these beetles use mirror-image pheromones to find a mate. The work could lead to better monitoring and control of significant agricultural pests.

Alright, the internet is all too much right now. I'm gonna take a break for a bit and work on some projects. I have some organizing to do and some bugs to find.
The horrible things in the world don't change what we have to do. Our work is and has always been the same. They may make it easier to get other folks on board, they may make it more obvious that we were right all along, but they don't change our job.
We will do our work of building community, supporting each other, and creating the world we want to see. It will take as long as it takes to do. None of the news changes any of that. So I'm gonna take my break and hopefully come back after I've gotten some of that shit done.

Less than a year after CEO Satya Nadella said 30% of Microsoft's code is AI-written, company appoints an 'Engineering Quality Head;' and here's why that matters | - The Times of India
Tech News News: Microsoft has appointed Charlie Bell, its former security chief, as the company's new engineering quality head — less than a year after CEO Satya Nadella said AI writes 30% of its code. The move comes amid rising Windows 11 bugs, underwhelming Copilot adoption, and growing evidence that AI-generated code introduces more errors than it eliminates.

Proper #security nightmare time.
#LMDB is a database that's designed to operate on trusted input. Upstream has historically rejected all bug reports regarding problems with malformed input.
Py-LMDB project provides #Python bindings to LMDB that are normally built against bundled LMDB. Someone recently started mass-filing "untrusted input" vulnerabilities against py-lmdb, and py-lmdb started #slop - coding fixes to their bundled LMDB. Of course, nobody even bothered reporting most of these bugs upstream, and the one that I've seen reported was rejected as "don't do that".
Py-LMDB supports building against system LMDB, and #Gentoo was doing that so far. However, now we are facing a problem: system LMDB operates under the assumption that it is working on trusted input, while py-lmdb (and its bundled LMDB) operates under the assumption that it may be working with untrusted input. The guarantees no longer align.
If we continue to use system LMDB (and skip all the added slop tests that literally cause Python to crash), then Gentoo's py-lmdb package will now have different input expectations than upstream py-lmdb. And of course we can't just remove that crap because someone added exactly one package (TorchVision, i.e. part of the plagiarism machine suite) depending on it.
