  • AI bros are so goddamn stupid

    You do not limit access by asking nicely via a fucking markdown file! 🤦 Jesus H Christ

  • First of all, no shit.

    Second of all, this is obviously not theoretical...

    Microsoft can associate the GDID with third-party services and the timing as well, giving Redmond a way to theoretically track a user’s online activity.

  • They tried using the password “winter2023!” and got 50 or 60 hits among the employees.

    Why did so many employees have this same password? I'm guessing maybe IT used it as a default or something?

  • Mineclonia is a fork of VoxeLibre (formerly MineClone2) that adds various improvements:

    Differences from MineClone 2

    • Overworld depth increased from 64 to 128 nodes
    • Improved nether portals
    • Improved leaf decay
    • Improved villages
    • Wandering traders and trader llamas
    • Suspicious nodes, pottery sherds and decorated pots
    • Conduits
    • Deep dark biome and ancient hermitage (structure corresponding to ancient city)
    • Functional loom to apply banner patterns
    • Lush caves biome
    • Cherry grove biome
    • No in-game music, twice as small compared to VoxeLibre (formerly MineClone2)
    • No hamburgers (but villagers follow dropped food as in Minecraft)
    • No renamed mobs (e.g. Creepers remain Creepers, not Stalkers)
    • Overhauled mob pathfinding, physics, and AI
    • Custom Lua map generator featuring terrain and biomes that closely comport to Minecraft and which is compatible with Minecraft seeds
  • Mineclonia has like 95% of the features of Minecraft but is way better because you don't need a Microsoft account, plus modding is easier.

    Also awesome:

  • From the article:

    This will also impact other Chromium-based browsers, though the comment notes that "other browsers can continue supporting these if they so desire." Neowin points out that Microsoft Edge and Opera are likely to follow suit.

    I've just been sticking with Firefox since it's open source and I trust uBlock Origin more than any other adblocker. (It even works great on Android)

  • he was unaware Mix could share patron data with neighboring businesses but did not see a problem with it. “I think it’s cute that they share it amongst other bars,” he wrote. “It’s like a little cybersecurity community.”

  • "AI Mode" delivers more useful information than the old style page link list does these days.

    How does Google's AI mode compare to other traditional (non-ai) search engines such as https://noai.duckduckgo.com/ ?

  • ... form submissions and redirects took a while to explain to my colleagues, on account of everyone being used to heavily client-side web applications.

    We are so cooked

  • The director of Citizen Kane never did that!

  • Nix / NixOS @programming.dev

    NixOS 26.05 released

  • I usually prefer using nix because it has type checking and the syntax highlighting works without having to put it in its own file. (Although larger configs need their own file anyway)

    But I'm not too bothered by having other languages in there.

  • some kinda hard drive bay that allows for multiple hard drives to be slotted into and connected (is that a NAS?)?

    Although I haven't ever used one, I think you're kind of describing a "DAS" (Direct-attached storage)

    I recently ran into the same issue as you and ended up ditching the laptop entirely and installed NixOS onto a TerraMaster NAS.

  • Anyone with a Lobsters account know why this was removed? I thought it was a good read. Even all of the webmentions (comments) I read seemed positive.

  • I just made this for fun after I had an existential crisis about my software engineering job turning from something I loved to just talking to agents all day :/

    🤔

  • OP saw this meme and took it seriously
