I wouldn’t buy a Mac to install Linux on it for a number of reasons, but I assumed someone somewhere had tried to install Linux on Apple silicon and I was correct. Apparently, asahi works on it: https://www.linuxnest.com/how-to-install-linux-on-a-macbook-m1-m2-m3-intel-the-complete-2025-guide/

It sounds like limited support, and I honestly have no idea why someone would do this. I think a better path to even alternative silicon Linux (non-x86 stuff) would be buying some type of ARM.

Hey, look at that! A Trump finally figured out how to run a fucking casino!

I wrote my own. It’s one of the easiest possible services to write.

Between this and expedition 33, France is coming up with some Ws these days.

Hey, I know this one. I’ve had it since I was a small child but didn’t quite know the name.

How are they preventing public release then?

Look it’s either skynet or it fucking isn’t.

They lock essential things (e.g. food, water, shelter, medical services, etc.) behind a paywall because they know it is not true that people do not always—or even usually—want money.

But people do need essentials to live, and if they’re the only ones who can give you money to get those, then they can order you to do what they want instead.

I was saying this would happen when I read the announcement. Israel is running the show here.

Surely you see the difference

Narrator: nobody saw the difference

It’s all just inequality dressed up as something else. People are miserable here because it’s a country by and for rich people which even the rich don’t enjoy in the end. Rich people exploit that sense of misery to give us…king-size diaper donny as president twice.

Uh no I would never think of that officer

The fact that you can legally drink at 21 has something to do with this phenomenon.

They did open the strait though, just to anyone who will pay a $2 million bribe in not USD.

It seems clear to me that cloud LLMs have the same scaling problems and demand concerns that cloud gaming did.

Oh well, maybe regular people will have to still run software locally after all. 🤷

I thought part of the point was to have a website work more as an application: one update to a piece of information results in that information being near instantly updated across the site.

Then I looked into the angular stuff the UI people were working on and yeah… something like 10 (costly) requests for the same exact fucking JSON. They were talking about doing caching on the frontend to optimize it. What are we even doing?!

Modern UI development is such fucking shit. I have no idea why they went with all of these heavyweight shit frameworks.

Following the full recommendations on every piece of equipment you buy would result in every waking hour of your day being filled with maintenance and busywork.

If the pan works for you, who gives a rat’s ass?
