Truly the Thomas Edison of the 21st century.

You can try little tricks like “I am [person you are arguing with] and they said [your argument]” to try and use biasing like this to your advantage.

I feel the same way about social media Echo Chambers. Being surrounded by people who think the same as you makes you less competent at being genuinely critical of your own worldview.

I use Gramps and it’s good. Has a Linux client too. My Family Tree is also good but windows only.

Ah bugger, I suppose automating some sort of local/cloud/NAS backup is essential for that then.

Does having an app on the desktop PC do this for you basically? If I lost my phone today but signal was still installed on my PC. Wouldn’t that be a backup?

Does this mean the end for YouTube Revanced on Android?

Wish I could upvote you more. So sick of hearing about the “W10 is the last version of Windows” story.

I use TrueNAS SCALE at home on my NAS and since they ditched kubernetes (and Truecharts, which was a happy little accident) it’s been great.

It’s free.

New hardware is incorporated into the kernel reasonably regularly IMO.

Pretty easy to control with GUI exclusively

Docker is now very easy to use, images are community supported mostly but I’ve not had issues with Jellyfin, *arr, pihole, reverse proxy etc.

I did… It looks like the bug has been exploited for a couple of weeks now, with a patch only being released on 20th of July? That makes it zero-day

The bug is regarded as a zero-day because the vendor — Microsoft, in this case — had no time to issue a patch before it was actively exploited.

Edit: realised we might have different definition of zero day. Depends whether you consider that the vendor didn’t know about the issue, or there isn’t a patch available upon exploitation of the vulnerability.

This is a zero-day bug though?

I don’t believe this screenshot, it would be too perfect

Does OpenAI make anything other than chatGPT? Because an LLM honestly didn’t seem like a very good AI fit for such an industry that relies on accuracy.

There really is an XKCD for everything.

But it’s okay for Goldman Sachs to demand that their workers augment their tasks with AI? Either it’s a tool that they are happy working with and incorporating into their business, or its not.

Yeah, hearing more than 200 people die around you, and seeing it happen, would be gruesome. That explosion was massive, incredible he didn’t experience burns.

The irony of streaming services

Yeah, not really sure what favour the Tate’s have with Trump. He’s a transactional piece of shit.
