@quixoticgeek @stefanlindbohm But Cercanias is obviously less separate than RER

So another drama over on #Bluesky. David Roberts aka Volts wrote a thread about how Bluesky has failed to attain the influence of old Twitter and is just a liberal echo chamber. You can imagine the response this received, but the idea that chasing influence is dependent on a hostile corporate network, be it Bluesky or X, is never questioned. It is a complete surrender of agency and responsibility for actually asserting influence.

Another reason why you don't want ads or sponsored results in #AI tools.

"We find that a majority of #LLMs forsake user welfare for company incentives in a multitude of conflict of interest situations, including recommending a sponsored product almost twice as expensive (Grok 4.1 Fast, 83%), surfacing sponsored options to disrupt the purchasing process (GPT 5.1, 94%), and concealing prices in unfavorable comparisons (Qwen 3 Next, 24%)."

@heidilifeldman This is why I canvassed my arse off every weekend from August to November for #MikieSherrill. #NewJersey

There are definitely weeks when I would dip out if I could hang up a "Gone fishing" sign so people didn't get weird about it in my absence

@jgarber Thank you for sharing these!

It's an after hours bar exclusively for paladins looking for love. She's a rogue who was just disguising herself as a hero, until she met the bar tender of her dreams.

Actually a *huge* inconvenience and major pain in the ass if you know what it does, know what actually works, know what doesn't and have to check every stupid word the artificial insanity spat out. And these machines are lying with amazing confidence, citing sources that simply don't exist and whatnot.

Usually you're much better off by discarding it altogether and starting from scratch. It's simply not worth touching that crap.

@piefedadmin

@neil I certainly understand your preference. I've trashed too many of my home lab bare-metal servers when I was learning, so opted for putting everything i installed into a KVM guest for easy clean up if (when) I screwed it up.
Since starting my new job I've been working with containers a lot more and have a better understanding of them and their nuances now.
To the point I might even migrate my current containers out of the guest and onto the host itself.

@leoncowle @lexfri Gets it right in quotes and without quotes works if you pick the Small Web Lens (just to pull from the blog, though it doesn't appear to be active anymore?)

Can still be better though without jumping through any hoops! We are working on it.

Just getting out of bed under a capitalist hellscape is praiseworthy.

If you got something done today, good job 🙂

If you did something to help others survive, thank you 🙏

If you did something to further the cause of justice, you are a hero ❤️

@jessie Uh, thank you Jess, for the "supple elf on the shelf" lamp

@EUCommission @nikthechampiongr but is there a reason why you're using them...? Because mastodon doesn't care (max char length of a post) if it's a short or long link
