The reason so many trans people are in IT is because they went to the expertsexchange forums and stuck around even after they realized it was about computer stuff

@Seirdy@pleroma.envs.net That can’t be right.
does some math
Weeelll fuck
So Electron apps can be pretty heavy due mostly to the Electron runtime and the problem is multiplied by for every electron app you have, but I have a solution.
Instead of bundling the Electron runtime time with each application, you instead have a single Electron runtime container that the user installs and individual applications run on top of that. And since the application and run time are now separate, the application could be stored on a remote server and the user could access them on demand taking burden of installing updates off the user and they only need to worry about their Electron run time app.

How in the year two-thousand and twenty-six are there still liberals out here fully believing that overall capitalism, you know the economic system whose foundations were built on the backs of enslaved Africans, is ultimately a positive for workers?
Gotta suck to be a hacker trying to make a name for your self doing cyberattacks, but everyone assumes it’s just the normal AI driven collapse of infrastructure that’s going on these days
It’d be nice to feel like I’m doing something meaningful with my life with people who love and care about me in a world that wasn’t on fire, but at this point I’d settle for at least one of those three things.
“Will the United States have fair and free elections in 2026?”
We’ve gone this long, I can’t imagine we’d start now.

@faithisleaping@anarres.family I definitely think UBI or an equivalent where needs are met is something that’s very much needed in a truly functioning society, but I feel like throwing it on top of our current system of capitalism is more a means to placate and control
I’ve always had mixed feelings about Universal Basic Income because it’s often presented as a bandaid to capitalism rather than as an intermediary step to something better, especially the way tech CEOs have been talking about it in relation to AI where it feels more like they’re describing feudal lords making sure that the most basic needs of their peasants are met so the peasants can continue working

Bad neighborhood?
Do you mean one with no sidewalks that’s unwalkable, unsafe for bikes and completely dependent on cars with basically no local independent businesses, only chains and the closest thing to a public green space is a golf course?
Oh, I just described your neighborhood and you just mean one that’s not predominantly white?
I don’t support the death penalty or corporate personhood, but I’m open to combining the two

But at the same time Andor is probably my favorite Star Wars thing and is pretty recent so I guess I could be wrong

And I say this as someone whose favorite media property is by far Star Trek. Just let it die in peace.
We have plenty of Star Trek and Star Wars and should stop making any more and instead make new stuff

Even though the world is on fire you can still post about things that make you happy and bring you joy, you don’t owe anyone doom and gloom

Also adding “please don’t delete my production data” or similar in the prompt doesn’t count as a safeguard
The untrustworthy AI agent you plugged into production systems without any safeguards that deleted important data didn’t “go rogue”, you’re just a dumbass

@senders@tech.lgbt I’ve always named my servers(and every device on my network) after Nintendo characters. The WiFi network is Mushroom Kingdom, my primary server is always peach, my primary laptop is always samus and my primary desktop(when I have one) is always link and everything else has random Nintendo names
While I do really need a job, there are a few types of companies I just won’t work with like DoD/DHS contractors, gambling companies and companies who have me upload my resume to apply then want me to manually add all my work history.

@FinalGirl I’m well entrenched in the Apple ecosystem, but even if I weren’t I’d probably still go Apple because I keep my phones for 5-6 years and I prefer they keep getting updates through out that whole time.
