  • Octopus is an English word so it is perfectly correct to pluralise it as octopuses. To use octopi is definitely wrong (it's the wrong foreign pluralisation), octopodes is using an uncommon foreign pluralisation so it's not wrong, just non standard

  • You think we're using a Greek word not an English word?

  • Framework announced the Framework 13 Pro with full Linux compatibility from the Start

  • I don't think the CEO or anyone else was at fault, one of their teams picked people for the company to support, it was either before bad behaviour became apparent, or ignorant of it, then the community complaints and they fixed it

    What's to complain about?

  • Oh No! Now A Federal Bill Wants OS-Level Age Verification for Everyone in the USA

  • To take the voice of the other side

    Age verification is a thing that's becoming more important

    It's expensive for all the companies if they have to do age verification, apple and Microsoft are huge so they can easily absorb the cost, so if we make those companies do it, it takes the load off the other companies

    It's not that they're open source hostile, it's that they're open source blind. I think they're also using corporate versions of windows so they don't get the worst of it, so they're not incentivised to find alternatives

    Linux is going to have a lot of trouble funding ID checks in the handful of jurisdictions where it's necessary

    I wonder if Linux should be presented as business software (since most Linux installations are servers) that should not be bound by that law, what does a server care about the age of the worker who set it up or the company that owns it

  • I think I knew it was a clit mouse before I was looking on the internet for porn. IBM laptops were well respected and highly available on the secondhand market - I got my university machine from an excess (obsolete) business equipment auction for something like fifty bucks and looking up the machine on Usenet introduced me to the term

  • what's the angle

    They want to make people suspicious of those who tell them that this year is the hottest since we started keeping records, and that is a big fucking problem that will probably cost us every low lying country and every coastal city and every beach

    In Kim Stanley Robinson's near future sci-fi people dredge up the old beaches to build new beaches

  • Pot isn't like opium. Most people can use pot occasionally and be sober most of the time, it's probably less common for someone to become a pothead than for a drinker to become dependant on booze

    Many people in all walks of life and all social statuses enjoy getting stoned occasionally

  • Skipping up to three mensurations has been tested and found to be safe. They called it a tri-cycle

    More isn't unsafe, just unknown to science
