i’m still remarkably happy with fedora’s kde on my laptop, but i’m also very content with the current state of wayland (with obvious caveats about use cases and personal idiosyncrasies).

i’m running xfce on a remote ubuntu box at work though, using rdp for connections, and it’s, well, fine. lacks some things i like in full DEs, but it’s perfectly adequate for the job.

(both beat fucking windows 11 when it comes to being usable for me)

the post itself is talking about vapourware too: fortunately none of these features will really land this year in any usable form.

enjoy the yank (and no labelers) :-)

there’s this. (though i find it useful to know who not to rely on if/when things get worse: for example i already know our neighbour from the apartment a floor below did write many missives to our cooperative’s administration, without having a single reason.)

like i said, the actual value of that little exercise is finding people who are fine with killing up to 50% of the population for no reason whatsoever.

they seem to be mostly angry that banks didn’t write their vision of the post-singularity paradise.

and of course there’s absolutely nothing in the books that suggests it’s a problem. (hell, there’s a good chance there actually is a lively japanese folk dance fan community there despite the fact that earth was never a part of the culture.)

agree, plus: that blog is yet another case of people just not comprehending the scale of Culture’s civilisation and Culture’s culture. a Culture orbital is not just a fancy space station ffs.

(i’m entirely unsurprised by the number of genocidal ghouls in that hn thread)

green and purple. :-)

a very neat test to find people who are perfectly fine with the general idea of genocide.

reportedly they dropped the whole video thing, including from chatgpt.

requiescat in picem, sora

and frankly, i’m not a catholic anymore, and i did look around for matches.

heh. thiel’s sermons about antichrist annoyed vatican enough for its a.i. adviser to rhetorically ask “should we burn peter thiel?” in an article titled “american heresy: should we burn peter thiel”. as the children twenty years ago were saying: lol. lmao.

• original article in french
• the monastery’s summary

i highly recommend this excellent thread.

but they did it from first principles and without needing to update their priors!

at least the federation works even with auth fetch these days. (and yeah, it’s a nice jank, the very different reply styles, the way the posts + replies are handled etc.)

luis villa, who as a lawyer really should have known better, being self-reportedly a friend of behdad and a confabulation/war machine promoter decided to come to rescue, calling the above (a) attack, and (b) slander.

obvious take is obvious
