I'm old enough that I wasn't raised from birth with a digital dog collar.

That's so weird considering those two domains are the source of ALMOST all the spam I've seen over the last couple decades.
They are free to leave a message, and I'll get back at my leisure.

I think it's great to see more women moving into full time open source careers. We don't have many!
How does anybody compete when the government insiders merge with the corporations? This is China tier.

You're mentally ill and nobody's scared any more. Go be a nanny somewhere else, you're not helping yourself OR NAFO OR NATO OR THE Ukraine.

Now stay away or I shall taunt you a third time, then call my Congressman and Senators and demand we shut off the war bucks and investigate where they went. Capiche? smack

This is bizarrely suspicious. Another deep side-channel planted by a large, nation-state grade actor?

You came on here to NAFO-post, got drubbed, and now you're crying. Maybe you're not cut out for psychological operations and should go back to motor pool.
I'd like to try it but it's blocked in my region.
I just engage the hardware modem kill switch on my Librem 5 when I'm not making a call. You all don't seriously carry around GovCorp beacon pods which are "always on" do you?

Nobody maintains X. Volunteers fix it, companies add drivers. Freedesktop is defrauding their donors, by claiming to "maintain and extend X" and failing to do so.

Other people will pick up the slack once the weirdos at Freedesktop formally announce they're finished.

How's the weather, airman? Flying high?

Edit: When the chilling effect's no longer working... Now, go jump on a mine for Khazaria.

Of course. And Epstein, Maxwell, you name it.

The US government is about power and influence, not chains of command and technical appointments and elections. You should have learned this by now.

They don't have the front holes to do it.

Big pharma is the government.
Re:Potent psychedelic drug banishes PTSD on Tuesday January 09, 2024 @08:20PM (#38934890)
It's not kind to say, but one must wonder if after you kill people, rip their bodies asunder, send them into the afterlife... if PTSD doesn't have a spiritual or karmic purpose. We're not meant to be doing this to each other.
Happened in Baltimore, Detroit, formerly nice places in Minneapolis, Chicago, New Orleans...

It's not "if" but "when."

Re:Potent psychedelic drug banishes PTSD on Tuesday January 09, 2024 @08:16PM (#38934860)
This has been known for decades, since before most of us here were born. My question is, when do we lynch big pharma for suppressing it?
Re:Apple announces when the Vision Pro will go on sale on Tuesday January 09, 2024 @11:43AM (#38928231)
Yeah but instead it'll just be used to show ads and track you, and photograph and video and track everybody else. I already find it offensive enough that most people wander around with a fully enabled GovCorp surveillance pod recording everything all the time. Last thing I want is some dweeb going through my 20 year old Reddit posts when he glances at me, my face being analyzed, current outfit and / accessories fed into my ad profile, etc.

We have to have a conversation about this as a species, it's already gone way too far.

Re:Apple announces when the Vision Pro will go on sale on Tuesday January 09, 2024 @11:07AM (#38927704)
It peaked years ago. No real application, people are losing interest. Apple had better have some really good applications ready for this thing.
Is this true though?

Nobody's going to buy this garbage. VR / AR / MR flopped.
If it's Boeing, I'm not going.
Why do people still live in big, liberal cities? They're clearly trying to drive people out. Just sell up before your property values tank and move somewhere nice. Learn to entertain yourself, cook, etc. and pretty soon you won't need the amenities.
Re:OpenBSD KDE Plasma Desktop on Tuesday January 09, 2024 @08:38AM (#38926009)
X isn't going bye-bye. Heck the current "maintainers," who are trying to kill it, don't even do anything but merge code given to them by other people.

You'll never win. At best you can kill it from Red Shat. I find the snarky, hubristic nature of Wayland boosters to be insufferable. Whole thing's a huge dumpster fire too.

Re:OpenBSD KDE Plasma Desktop on Monday January 08, 2024 @04:35PM (#38918507)
People have it working OK but it'll never be part of the base system.
Re:OpenBSD KDE Plasma Desktop on Monday January 08, 2024 @04:34PM (#38918500)
You can understand RC. You CAN'T understand systemd. For me that's a big one. But I bailed on Linux once it came out that the Indians and Chinese had teamed up to backdoor it.

Because it quite resembles the khopesh, from ancient Egypt. And the word is nearly the same too.
No telemetry is anonymous, these days it's trivial to associate an IP with any number of personally identifying factors. All you need is partners.
