… you had one job …

I joined Reddit because it was an open and moderated collection of communities … then after the blackout due to the API changes, moderators were sent packing and any sense of community that had been created was destroyed.

I joined both Mastodon and Lemmy and I’m glad I did.

The communities in both are nascent, but slowly growing, and that seems like a place I’d like to be.

After Twitter became Xitter, I also joined Bluesky but that feels much more like people ranting and venting, less about making communities.

Given the impermanence of any storage medium today, I’m thinking a puff of smoke would convey the sentiment with the right level of user expectation.

… and anyone else who should not have access to your data.

And now you know why you should encrypt your data on any cloud provider.

I wonder … will it be another case of “Too Big To Fail” … or will it be … “Let The Market Decide”?

I’m guessing the answer depends on how many medals the CEO of Oracle can bestow upon the Orange.

Me … cynical … no … just been here for a while.

Interesting. TIL. Thank you.

I did discover this collection of tools that appears to provide code signing by the Linux Foundation project:

Why can’t RustDesk use Let’s Encrypt instead?

For a time it was Solitaire, but these days it’s 2048.

More likely than not you’re confusing modifier keys.

On the Mac, the zoom is [Command] + [+].

In Linux it’s [Control] + [+]

This is pretty much true across the board. It’s sometimes non-obvious because wrappers like UTM try to “help”.

The alternative is to ssh into the VM and continue to use the MacOS shortcuts you’re used to.

Have a look at the modlog.

Kali ≠ Debian

I did not see an apt-get update

In my experience, unmet dependencies are unlikely to happen on a stable version where you only installed from the official repo.

The LZMA decompression errors point at a much more fundamental issue. I’m suspecting that the repository URLs point at non standard locations or downloads were interrupted, though I’m not sure exactly how, since AFAIK, apt checks the checksum.

If you must have something that’s not In your distro, do yourself a favour and install Docker and run your package inside there, much less chance of killing your system.

I’ll add it to the list:

• AI is Assumed Intelligence.
• AI is autocorrect on steroids.
• AI is a Dunning-Kruger accelerator.
• AI is a classic case of Gell-Mann amnesia.

What you’re describing is a general experience with LLM, not limited to the C-level.

If an LLM sprouts rubbish you detect it because you have external knowledge, in other words, you’re the subject matter expert.

What makes you think that those same errors are not happening at the same rate outside your direct personal sphere of knowledge?

Now consider what this means for the people around you, including the C-level.

Repeat after me, AI is Assumed Intelligence and should not be considered anything more than autocorrect on steroids.

Depends on the purpose.

Signal for private conversation.

Mastodon for my hobby.

Lemmy and Bluesky for participation in the world.

That makes no sense.

You can create a Lemmy or Mastodon account in moments with nothing more than a web browser.

Is that the entire fediverse, no.

Is Facebook one thing, also no.

Your restrictions on excluding the fediverse are nonsensical.

Subscribed?

Seriously?

Who’s got the energy for that?
