@Xavier@infosec.exchangeI was trying to explain to someone that virtual appliances can't be patched using 'yum update' and had the lead of our change review board not understand.
He was insisting that it would work, so I had to throw down the gauntlet and say "I'm sorry your wrong."
In which he retorted like a child, "well, this is my meeting so I that means I'm right."
This is the type of toxic shit that drives me crazy, but I'm taking this as a win. …

@yrlaNor@social.tchncs.definally, a fair review of morgoth's "feel sorry for the fanatic". this has always been a great album, when it came out it really depressed me that i felt like the only one who appreciated this bold and successful step into something so different. a true work of art. you can hear they are feeling it.
any past review of this album not even mentioning killing joke as a reference was not getting it at all.
the self-fulfilling album title is gold.
@cdarwin@c.imNow, inevitably, half of my Bluesky timeline is like:
oh, we need a service that’s resistant to this sort of shit,
something that’s not beholden to capitalist pressure,
something that’s queer-friendly and furry-friendly

Sorry, I’m saying it.

@mgorny@social.treehouse.systems#Gentoo PSA: due to my oversight, upgrading sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel-bin to the latest versions on every branch does not result in /usr/src/linux symlink being updated. I will try to fix it in 10 hours.
A workaround is to update the symlink manually or remove it and run `emerge --config gentoo-kernel-bin`. You may need to run `@module-rebuild` afterwards.
This is a one time problem. Once the symlink is updated (or becomes invalid, e.g. through --depclean), subsequent upgrades will update it correctly.
I'm sorry for the trouble.

Devouring Time, blunt thou the lion's paws,
And make the earth devour her own sweet brood;
Pluck the keen teeth from the fierce tiger's jaws,
And burn the long-liv'd phoenix, in her blood;
Make glad and sorry seasons as thou fleet'st,
And do whate'er thou wilt, swift-footed Time,
To the wide world and all her fading sweets;
But I forbid thee one most heinous crime:
O! carve not with thy hours my love…
@pre@boing.worldAn actual job-guarantee is a brilliant plan, if you combine it with national ownership of the public infrastructure and a new national worker-owned co-op, you could actually revitalize the country and take some wealth back from the multinational private corporations and into actual unalienable British hands.
Start BritCo: the British Co-op.
The state will subsidize worker's wages, in that anyone who wants a job is guaranteed one at the BritCo on minimum wage and if BritCo can't make profit from it then they get welfare money to train them up till they can.
BritCo is owned entirely and inalienably by the workers, past and present, with one share for every hour worked which can not be sold or paid at any other rate. Wages may differ, be more for skilled work than the minimum paid for training, but ownership is one share per hour worked (including during training).
BritCo's mission is to rebuild the national infrastructure.
Fix the pipes, clean the rivers, upgrade the grid, build open nationally-controlled software systems, hardware production, build green energy, build national wealth and infrastructure and make it owned not by private international capital but by the workers who built it.
The state must not own BritCo. Its workers do. So BritCo can't be privatized by a mis-elected 'conservative' government.
Everything currently 'royal' becomes BritCo. Owned by the workers. So do many previously nationalized industry. Compensate current owners if you must, I'd just renationalize it without recompense. Wasn't really the state's to sell you mate. Stolen property. Sorry.
@losttourist@social.chatty.monsterSometimes lawyers decide to become politicians, and that's rarely beneficial to the world (sorry, Fedi lawyers!)
But I would so dearly love for this person, who is currently seeking election as a judge for a rural Nevada county, to decide to switch careers. And then rise to the very, very top of their country's political ladder.
Purely so that we could sit back and watch BBC newsreaders try not piss themselves laughing every time they'd have to say "President Wanker".
@mgorny@social.treehouse.systemsSome people think that #LLM usage costs rising will start undoing some of the harm caused by the #AI hype. I don't think that's really going to help that much.
I'm not even talking about all the projects that were ensloppified and enshittified already. I'm not talking about all the technical debt. I'm not talking about all the forks that will have to be maintained forever. I'm not talking of all the projects that were abandoned because of burnout, or because they were only hype-oriented. And I'm not talking about all the corporations that will continue submitting slop.
I'm talking about the loss of trust. After all, we're not talking of people who realized they were wrong and are sorry. We're not talking of people realizing that it was wrong to forfeit ethics and morals in the name of "productivity". We're talking of people who are jumping ships because their previous approach turned out not to be profitable anymore. We're talking of gamblers who left the casino because they went broke. They aren't sorry that they gambled; they are sorry that they've lost. And they'd be happy to do it again at the nearest opportunity.
So, I'm sorry to say, but #FreeSoftware is never going to be the same again. A lot of people have shown their true colors, and I won't forget that.
