Any pronouns. 33.

Professional developer and amateur gardener located near Atlanta, GA in the USA.

I'm using a new phone keyboard, please forgive typos.

  • Only 90s kids will understand

    Jump

  • I was born in '91 and a lot of what I associate with the '90s actually are things from the early '00s. I think part of it is because we moved around that time so memories of my old house and things that were from the actual '90s sort of faded in my mind.

  • Disney Exits OpenAI Deal After AI Giant Shutters Sora

    Jump

  • I recently stopped working as a developer for Disney, and even if this deal is gone for using their IP in AI, they're still really big on AI at the moment. From the C level there was a push for everyone to be using it as much as possible. Everyone needed to be showing how much they were integrating it into their workflows.

  • Birthdate field under discussion also in Arch Linux

    Jump

  • I feel this law has the intent to damage and disrupt things in general, yes. Parental controls have existed for ages but lawmakers don't seem interested in them. For example, all the porn bans, rather than forcing sites to use some sort of self tagging system that parental controls could easily see (like some response header) they just want them to take IDs. All of it is a push to forcing people to always be online transparently with their real identity well known.

  • You don't need to be suspicious, they're explicitly adding it because of that. They said as much. Look at what they wrote under "Motivation."

  • You're saying that in a post age verification world though, my whole point is that if this were there before it wouldn't seem bad. I'm not saying we should add it now because it would've been fine before.

    Jump

  • The thing that's frustrating is that if the age verification laws weren't there and they wanted to add a birthday field it wouldn't seem bad. Details about the human using the account like first and last name are already stored. All you really need is username. But because it's explicitly in reaction to age verification laws we have to be skeptical about adding it.

  • Genuinely, Mac's track pads are amazing. Which is hilarious because their mouses are so bad. I don't know how they messed up a mouse so much while mastering the track pad so well.

  • Afroman cleared in ‘Lemon Pound Cake’ defamation case

    Jump

  • This whole kerfuffle really irks me. The police did something wrong. They got called out on it. Then they sued. It's vindictive and horrible. And you fucking KNOW that if he sued them instead of making the song it very likely wouldn't have gone anywhere and they'd get to wave their qualified immunity all over. But that wasn't enough for them. They just couldn't stand someone besmirching their perfect name.

    The sheer irony of this whole thing is that I had forgotten. I imagine many of you did too if you even saw those videos he made after it happened a few months back. They totally Streisand effected (Streisand affected? lol) themselves. Absolutely disgusting to see them sue him over this. Very glad he won.

  • What reasons?

  • I always thought it was Hotmail, probably because my first email address was using Hotmail and that was sort of my first introduction to computing.

  • EndeavorOS too, which is even closer to "vanilla" Arch than CachyOS.

  • ChipotleGPT

    Jump

  • I tried asking it relevant questions about burritos and they wouldn't answer those. They locked this thing pretty tight or this was fake.

  • Is this part not showing for you or did you just miss it?

    Small edit: To add to that last point, what I mean is that it's not like you stop earning your yearly salary while you're picking up a penny.
