Created this after reading conversation in comments below some tech article somewhere. Someone mentioned "surfing the #internet sewer" and I really liked that phrase.

Drawing of a cartoon style man, wearing silver protective suit with UBlock Origin logo on it, surfing in sewer with green toxic water. There are cookies and fanged monsters looking like Chrome logos floating around him. On the background wall there are red crosses, like for closing websites or errors. There are also industrial cameras, one yellow eye and graffiti with TikTok logo. On the railing on path's edge there is photo camera attached, looking similar to old Instagram logo, and rotting blue bird. There is big text "Google" near water, with both "o" replaced with ends of pipes and small texts around: crossed out "AI", "Buy this, only $2!" and below "scammer!" and "it's con". Above the picture there is description "Surfing The Internet Sewer".

Illustration titled "Why Isn't There Straight Pride?" offering 12 completely understandable reasons, such as "being straight was never illegal" and "no one got kicked out for coming out straight" and "no one is killed for being straight."

What you're referring to as Gulf of America, is in fact, GNU/Gulf of America, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Gulf of America. Gulf of America is not a golf unto itself, but rather another free...

Just rewatched T2 - the most unrealistic part of the film wasn't the time travel or the robots, it was the tech executive who isn't a narcissist & is willing to give up personal riches when he learns that trying to profit off self-aware AI will destroy the entire world.

We're going to be moving forward under the expectation that future Pixel devices may not meet the requirements to run GrapheneOS (grapheneos.org/faq#future-devi) and may not support using another OS. We've been in talks with a couple OEMs about making devices and what it would cost.

@Houl For me mullvad browser is my gaming browser. Just because it resets history and opens fast. Does not use too much ram.

There’s that old saying: Those who refuse to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
Well, here we fucking are.

L.A. is on fire again—ICE raids sparked mass protests, the National Guard’s stomping through the streets like it’s '92 all over again... or ‘65 if you really know your shit. The ghosts of Watts and Rodney King never left—they’ve just been waiting for round three.

People used to say if Hitler invaded the U.S., he’d get chewed up in the Bronx before he ever saw the Capitol. Why?
Because poor and oppressed people don’t play. They resist.
They fight.
They remember.

History’s not just repeating—it’s rhyming.
And this time, the chorus is loud as fuck.

Solidarity is a motherfucking weapon. Watch the streets.

Happy Pride, Everyone.

Alt txt by : @psil@c.im

@psil@c.im : "Alt text for those who want/need it (could be expanded with visual descriptions of the art). Happy pride!"

Panel 1
Whenever pride month rolls around, people who complain about it always seem to show up, either because they don't like The Gays™
"Why do the gays get to have a whole month to themselves??"
or because "other groups don't get to be celebrated as much" (while not celebrating those things themselves) and I can't help but find it kind of funny. 

Panel 2
Because their hate for queer people shows justification for pride to ask be celebrated. This is just my experience, but living as a trans person, especially in this day and age, it's kind of terrifying at times. 

Panel 3
Like governments painting trans people as some sort of danger that has to be legislated away and stopped, 
"It's not us, it's them! They're causing all the problems you have! Get them!"
When in reality it has nothing to do with the fact that a lot of people's lives just suck,  but it works anyway, because a lot of people are miserable, and having someone to blame, to hate, it makes them feel like they're doing something, instead of feeling powerless about the fact that their work sucks or that rent is to high.

Panel 3 out of 7:

I know people like to make fun of niche operating systems, but for the five years I was at Microsoft I used Windows (10 then 11) as my daily driver. It’s much less stable than a professional OS, but it does kind-of work. I wouldn’t say it’s ready for the desktop. The UI is inconsistent and changes randomly between releases, a load of common software is basically useable only in a VM, it lags and freezes periodically (unlike an OS designed for interactive use, random drivers run a load of things directly in interrupt handlers, so you get latency spikes that you wouldn’t see in a more mainstream desktop OS) and the update process can hose the system, so it’s mostly of interest to people who like tinkering with their machines than people who actually want to get work done. Oh and a load of random bits of the OS have ads, but that’s what you get from a free ad-supported system instead of one developed by an active open-source community.

I don’t think I’d recommend anyone use it as their daily driver or in a work setting, but it’s not totally unusable. It’s not at the level of maturity than you’d expect from, say, Linux or FreeBSD, especially not for client workloads. If you do have to use it, I recommend that you install FreeBSD in a Hyper-V VM for real work. That’s what I did and it works quite well.

I'm not surprised that Gitlab decided to run off a cliff to follow GitHub:

«AI coding bot allows prompt injection with a pull request»

Everyday I'm more grateful for @Codeberg and @forgejo!
