If someone’s self-hosting, I’d be willing to bet they don’t have the same hardened config or isolation that a cloud provider would.

No VPN.

I’ve started noticing websites just to refuse to work on Linux:

• Xfinity
• Microsoft
• United Airlines
• American Airlines

It’s not like some weird script error either. It’s straight up a 403 Forbidden on certain routes. Works perfectly fine if I switch to my Windows laptop. It’s like it took one look at my user agent string and decided I was a bot.

No. Docker containers aren’t a full sandbox. There’s a number of exploits that can break out of a container and gain root access to the host.

I support the idea that the Rapture did indeed happen, but only like 5 people on Earth were good enough Christians to be taken so no one else noticed.

I’m a senior dev and I want nothing to do with AI. By the time I understand what I want well enough to describe it in a complete sentence or paragraph, I can just write the fucking code myself. I figure it out as I go.

The whole point of having devs under you that is to be able to trust them to get the job done and do it right. You want to be able to delegate tasks to them and not have to peek over their shoulder every five fucking minutes to be certain they’re not making a mess of things.

I seriously doubt AI will ever be able to replace that. Not until they figure out how to make it afraid of fucking up.

Big if true, but this unfortunately just seems like wild speculation.

There’s articles going back to before the election talking about how Trump hasn’t been seen in several days. I couldn’t find anything more recent than June. He apparently has a habit of flaking on commitments, which doesn’t surprise me in the slightest.

Tbh I just use it as a reminder to run a system upgrade, otherwise I’d constantly forget to do it.

What’s the number, OP

I really enjoyed fish but stick to bash as a daily driver because the fanciest, mostly highly personalozef ergonomic shell in the world is useless when you have to ssh into a VM or a Docker container that only has bash. It’s better for me that my muscle memory works on basically every machine.

“Heh, yeah well, good luck. You’d have to be some kinda genius to count all those rings.”

“… He’s five.”

I had to pull up the episode to verify the quote.

It’s an old meme, sir, but it checks out.

TFW you post propaganda using a picture of an American vehicle

Even as an American with everything going on here, this bullshit makes me feel bad for the Brits. How fucked up is that?

Does anyone else manually review PKGBUILDs before installing or upgrading anything from the AUR?

That’s why we switched, on both closed- and open-source projects. There’s just no winning an argument that puts you on the same side as racists.

At one point I was considering how, if someone asked on one of our public repos, I’d say “no” but at the same time post a receipt for a donation to the NAACP just to prove I wasn’t racist. Thankfully I realized how stupid an idea that was before it came to that.

Performative wokeness is a cancer, man. Did any of this arguing and vitriol actually help any marginalized group in STEM? I really fucking doubt it.

I don’t DM and tell.

Thank you boo

I don’t even need to read the message to know it’s a scam. No one ever DMs me otherwise.
