Yes. Vibe coding tools and AI companies

Thanks, might have to try that sometime.

Could you link the privacy extension in question I haven’t heard of it

I do like how I can easily remember IPv4 addresses while I struggle to remember a single IPv6 address

I’m pretty sure the emotional support clown would have been a better fit for his position

I’m wondering how long it’s going to take to revert this policy

I recognized the channel and read the DeArrow title, but still checked if he actually launched it myself 😅

I don’t think that’s a valid comparison. The behavior does differ when it comes to cleanly releasing resources. Rust’s panic performs the drop actions for the current values on the stack, a SIGILL or SIGSEGV crash doesn’t.

#[derive(Debug)]
struct MyStruct {}

impl Drop for MyStruct {
	fn drop(&mut self) {
		println!("{:?}", "imagine cleanup here"); // this is called
	}
}

fn main() {
	let a = MyStruct {};
	panic!("panic!");
        println!("{a:?}");
}

Try it yourself

A good example would be regex. After validating it when writing the program it should always compile, although this could also be solved with a proc macro that validates the regex at compile time.

This reminds me of an old family story. My grandpa used to have an uncle who had flamingo’s. Imagine walking through a Dutch village somewhere in the 60’s and seeing a bunch of flamingo’s standing in some muddy ditch. I have have no clue how he they ended up there, but it apparently wasn’t the first time he ended up with some tropical animal. My grandpa had to take care of them for a while, but didn’t really know what to feed them. He also had some parrots and would buy food for them from the miller. Considering these were also birds, just larger, he went to the miller and asked for food for flamingo’s. The miller did not know what flamingo’s were. He therefore explained that they were large pink birds. The miller was not convinced, thinking he was pulling his leg and sent him away with a few bags of chicken feed.

It might be because of child abuse themes and the portrayal of robot sex workers. It has been criticized before.

We knew right from the start that Detroit: Become Human was going to be heavy going. The 2016 and 2017 trailers both featured children in peril: first a child dangled from a rooftop, then a young girl being beaten by her father, but David Cage defended the dark subject matter with the promise that “there’s a context in the story, there’s a reason for that”, and we gave the game the benefit of the doubt. The problem is that having now seen the game in full it is clear that Cage’s child abuse narrative isn’t content with just one scene, and definitely isn’t used with care, context, and solid reasoning.

‘Detroit: Become Human’: Exploitative and Tasteless

I’m not sure if I agree with this sentiment. I feel like it was mostly focused on the way Kara goes out of her way to protect Alice, but I can kind of understand how someone else could see this differently.

I’ve never bought a porn game nor ever played one, but I just think it’s stupid that such large companies fold to a lobby organization and start moderating the sale of products. Christian fundamentalist activists are persistent and organized, and it’s effective. I think it’s bad how a small minority is able to dictate the lives of other people and I like how people get riled up because I hope it will remind the people in charge of those large corporations that catering to extremists is a bad decision.

TLDR: Idgaf about the games, I just hate it when religious zealots dictate the lives of others.

EDIT: I might have been wrong about “Collective Shout” and didn’t look into it enough before forming an opinion.

EDIT 2: Yeah, I don’t think “Incest Daughters BDSM” deserves saving. They seem to be primarily targeting rape and incest games, and I can definitely understand that you want to see rape games gone from if you’re an organisation like this. Article However, I still don’t know how accurate their own article is, I might check out more sources/perspectives when I have time.

EDIT 3: My initial assessment seems to be correct, a large amount of games are affected and the “policies” seem to be enforced with a disregard for accuracy. The organization also seems to be more extreme.

I think the limiting factor would be getting your number blocked. Maybe someone could get a bunch of VoIP numbers?

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, systemd/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, systemd plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning systemd/Linux system made useful by the various daemons and services provided by systemd, which manages system processes and configurations.

Many computer users run a modified version of the systemd ecosystem every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of systemd which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the systemd framework, developed for streamlining service management on the Linux kernel.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is usually paired with the systemd framework: the whole system is basically systemd with Linux added, or systemd/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of systemd/Linux!

Now, let’s talk about systemd itself. systemd is not just an init system but a sprawling suite of software designed to harmonize the management of services, logging, and much more across all those Linux distributions adopting it. While there are plenty of critics who claim that systemd suffers from mission creep, and bloat, they fail to realize that systemd is here to unite the divergent spirits of the Linux universe into a cohesive whole.

It’s often cited that systemd is the first daemon to start during boot and the last to terminate at shutdown, meaning it’s the parent that manages the chaotic brood of processes that stem from it. But of course, the truth remains that Linux is merely the kernel within this greater whole. For many, using systemd without acknowledging its complex ecosystem is like using a bus without realizing it’s the driver coordinating every route.

While some advocate for a leaner alternative, the benefits of systemd are often overlooked, such as its ability to parallelize the boot process to expedite your start-up time, or how it beautifully integrates logging with journald, merging many separate tasks into one efficiently managed service.

In conclusion, while there’s certainly a Linux kernel powering many systems out there, it’s really the systemd suite that brings it all together. So please remember, when you’re running your Linux, you’re not just running Linux; you’re enjoying the splendid orchestration of systemd/Linux, or as I like to call it, systemd plus Linux.

Yeah, I remember it being feverdream sludge when I first tried it

Okay? Stay safe, I guess

Thanks for the explanation. I always knew that concept just as E2EE.

So something like MEGA or Proton Drive?
