<troll> Nan mais moi je parle des jeux vidéos qui existent, par des vaporwares ! </troll>
@davidgerard i would ask for the drugs. i feel a lot better now Im on them.
@bob oh i'm on those! uh Amlodipine 5mg. it lowers my blood pressure and otherwise is somewhat crystal meth. I've lost 5kg and can't sleep and am full of bouncy crack. i'm a fan.
I just love this.
@lyndamerry484 would be a shame if that Canal got renamed. Impeachment Canal, perhaps?
Another step closer to release!
The official website is now live at https://littlefedi.org/ with documentation and project details.
Take a look and let me know what you think!

Thinking about this conversation with @Astridd and @Eceni, I'm of the opinion that although #capitalism is incompatible with human survival, it will collapse under its own weight before human survival becomes impossible. The question is how much damage it will do before it collapses.
Obviously collapse isn't a thing to hope for in itself -- it will cause enormous disruption and suffering -- but the sooner it happens, the less destructive it will be.
@Roland @Anders @davidsnug les arguments qui me semblent valides, ou au moins discutables.
- l’entraînement a été fait sans tenir compte des licenses, normalement, tu peux utiliser du code GPL si ton propre projet et GPL, mais via la magie de l'extrusion de code, ton projet privé peut contenir du code fortement inspiré de code GPL, et donc "volé" dans le processus.
- même problème, dans l'autre sens, ton code GPL peut se retrouver a contenir du code "fortement inspiré" de code non-open source, et créé un risque légal.
- l'entraînement des modèles d'IA demande énormément de resources (leur usage, beaucoup moins, mais l'usage requiert l'entraînement). On parle beaucoup de l'eau (mais c'est plus nuancé), mais il y a aussi l'électricité, et l'augmentation forte d'usage de gaz très polluant, normalement utilisé en dépannage, qui tournent à plein régime.
- l'entraînement n'est pas fait seulement sur de code, mais sur toute production textuelle de l'humanité, sans égard pour la prop. intel.
@tshirtman @Anders @davidsnug Ok c'est solide... La question qui suit serait alors : Pourquoi les devs de la distribution Linux la plus iconique se sont laissés convaincre ?
Hmm, quite a mixed list you have there.
I think the non-politicians in your list seem not to be in politics or corporate management or VC investor world, so i guess you are right it is possible to exist - though i do have doubts for some ....but politicians
mamdani, sanders, AOC ...you would imagine if they ever got power and did what thay say, that it would make a difference, BUT
1. if they are real, its why they wont get to real power
2. if they get to power, lets see actions
@distractal i mean 8 am aware of good stuff mamdani has done or does, but its also just mayor level and who knows if that builds up his image to rally support only to show his real face later in life on a higher position. ...after all he kinda had this meeting with trump where they were besties and a lot of stuff somtimes seems to be more performance than real impact ...so yeah - i dont buy it anymore. sorry.
every person empoered and made independent from politics is a win

I have some doubts about the accuracy of this guy's Google Scholar account (#2 in political science)...
in case you needed the reminder 
The "secret" project I've been working on for the past few weeks is released! It's... a podcast! Martin Wolf (from Golem.de) and yours truly are talking about elderly computers and consoles. In German! Available on YT and on our website for now, to be listed in all the usual podcast places soon.
We called it "Elektroschrott" (e-waste) because it felt right.
Spread the word.

@davidgerard does your cuff say left or right on it, many are handed
@Extelec lol it does say left in fact
the nurse told me to measure my blood pressure every morning, keep doing the uh eating right and exercising thing* until i get a consistent 140/90 or less. i have been doing so.
the tester is some cheap thing off amazon, doctors are fine with this one weird trick cos they use basically the same one
right arm i typically score ~150/90, left arm i'm getting ~135/85
i am doubting i have notably higher blood pressure in my right arm than my left
i'm beginning to think in practical terms this number is +/-10mmHg
* 30 min walk every day is annoyingly effective in making me feel generally better
@davidgerard I was advised that getting different results for different arms was perfectly normal. To see whether you are improving or the reverse always repeat using the same arm and ideally take multiple readings (I always did 3).
My issue is low blood pressure. I have to warn nurses I am not about to die when they take it and I'm 90/60 . Needless to say when I returned a systolic of 60 they correctly told me to get back in bed.

I know some of you are British but please please please do not call our southern delta city "new or leans" just say "new wor lens"
It's confusing where you mean and hurts the bones to hear "new or leans"
I will not try to get ya'll to say na warh lans... but yeah, it's just not called "new or leans" nobody knows what that is.
@futurebird how about "La Nouvelle Orléans"? 🙂
JACK. Great now I'm down the rabbit hole. Man With No Name and Electric Universe. Look I know it's bad and terrible and also illegal, but sometimes I just long to throw a bunch of pills into my face and go dancing all night. If only scientists could made an mdma that doesn't ruin your life. Goodnight Sandra from the accounts department are you doing anything fun this weekend? Oh yes me and the family are going down Pendragon to get totally off our tits on pills and dance all night lost in an oblivion of bliss, then we have the mother in law over on Sunday. Should be a nice weekend.
A couple of glasses of wine on Sunday you'll be fine to host the in-laws. Wednesday however is the day to fear. Or so I'm told. Leave Sandra the fuck alone on Wednesday.
