Am I pregnant with divine child or just ate a ginormous burrito?
@farah Why not both?

Curious how the Swalwell case develops. Not to assign you homework or anything, but I'd read any updates on that you posted here.

And now, of course, I have another (not) hypothetical for my surveillance course. Do you have a reasonable expectation of privacy in passwords you enter from your airplane seat? What's the legal standard here? What if communications is involved? Etc.

@davidrevoy The age of "meh" is upon us :(
@lufthans Yes, good label, I'll note it. It feels to me that we are sliding from Post truth, to Slop truth, to Just Meh .
Suddenly, feeling that nihilism was weaponized as a way to govern...

U.S. President Donald Trump met with major travel company executives that included representatives from American Airlines, MGM Resorts and Carnival to discuss ways to reverse a decline in international visitors. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/09/03/world/us-trump-tourism-boost/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #us #donaldtrump #tourism #travel

What about not being absolute dickheads to foreigners?
IIRC, when power management worked, the battery life was pretty great.
I know the last time I used it, I was using it for video editing.
But, based on where I found this thing, the last time it was used was before we opened the makerspace.
Which means *well* before we started New Ellijay Television.
So who knows what video I was editing.
I said at the top of the thread that being reminded of the pine note was upsetting.
I should unpack that, I don't have much hate towards the device.
When I got mine, super early adopter, I knew it was unfinished and software support wasn't great. It was running AOSP, and the experience of using it was pretty frustrating, even when just using it as like a termux terminal with a bluetooth keyboard, both because the screen refresh was bad (even by normal eink standards) and also because tablets suck for the workflows I want.
Eventually there was a full debian build, but flashing it onto the device was a pain in the ass, and I was *big mad* at computers at that point so I didn't bother.
And then I misplaced the thing in the makerspace.

@be Nope. NetBSD has one too1, elementaryOS, postmarketOS, and a handful of other Linux distros also have anti-slop policies.
None of them are pure "no slop, ever, anywhere" (kinda impossible when third party software is in play), but they're not slopping in the distro spaces at least.
With caveats, but still stronger than most. ↩︎

Today's Low Quality Ad is for this T-Rex Cat Pin. Look at that bloodthirsty beast, ready to violently eviscerate any poor creature it comes across with its razor-sharp claws and teeth. Oh and there's also a T-Rex.
