How come some 25yo person is a director at Facebook?

I mean, even if she is a child prodigy genius, which she obviously is not as she is face first fist deep into AI, how the frack do you have even enough life experience to become a director of any large organization at that age unless you somehow cheated your way in?

Then reading the hat she's doing and how she resolved it tells me she doesn't know shit about computers, she just know how to type commands into AI systems

Is this the future? Am I going to end up being one of those long bearded magicians that still know the old technology, that still can still save the day by using shell commands?

These glasses cams are small enough to no longer be visible as a camera.

I'm all for freedom to record outside but this is a step too far as this is not me making a video for me, this is Facebook using idiots to record the world 24/7 for them.

I'm fine with humans recording humans, immnot fine with companies recording me

I sometimes use ait, but specifically for subjects that I don't know about and don't want to know about.

I'm a developer, I'm all open source and Linux etc. right now I need to build a fairly straightforward rsync solution so that I can regularly update. A directory from a windows server and fuck me is it a shit show. On Linux it'd be a 5 minute task, here I've spent hours trying to first get it to run with cygwin which let me down a rabbit hole through the planet hell and back.

I fairly quickly pulled in Claude to give suggestions on how to get rsync with windows to work because I don't want to know anything about windows. I want to actively keep that info out of my brain lest I get infected by it somehow, so I just spent an hour copy/pasting solutions and results to and from Claude

About half it's solutions were wrong and dumb, but it "knew"certain things like certain versions of rsync in cygwin having a specific bug that affected me that would have me spend hours digging through gulp windows documentation

I got to the point where I dumped cygwin and I'm going to try wsl instead (should have done that from the first moment, probably, but Claude did not tell me THAT)

Point is: AI, so far, is pretty useless and generates little to no usable specificoutput, but it's fairly good at getting you I right directions. For subjects you really do not want to get involved in, it's a nice way to just move forward without a lot of headaches

That is, of course, if you're okay with being recorded, studied, proddded, probed, have your asshole size measured because these fuckers want EVERYTHING from you in return for giving you almost nothing

you will be meat for the coltan mines.

Is that a reference to Terminator: the Sarah Connor Chronicles?

Did somebody let Lennart out again? You know he shouldn't be walking around alone outside, he's just going to get himself into trouble.

On a slightly more serious note: systemd does some things nice, a lot of things it does very badly, and it really seriously needs to stop trying to push it's grubby little fingers into every sub system out there.

All that is one thing, but the main issue with systems always seemed it's main developer, Lennart Poetteting who was never one to shy away from drama and controversy, and not in a good way.

Ding ding ding

How the fuck is it that Israel can pressure literally the entire world on protecting them whilst they are executing a genocide?

Do they have shit on all world leaders? Are all world leaders so afraid of being called anti semitic that they'd happily support genocide and child murder just to look good? I mean, that must be one fucking good look to be worth all the blood.

I got that one, I think

Try rutracker and search for the director of the movie + 2009, you should find it

Sooooo you want to stop gun violence in the US so your first instinct is to fuck over 3D printers because gun violence is okay as long as the guns are bought from the normal vendors?

This paw isn't about lowering gun violence, this is something pushed to protect the gun manufacturers

Please pass this bill, that'd be so hilarious, the US inadvertently closing it's airspace semi permanently because they're such dumbasses

Or else Microsoft will fold?

That'd be nice

Is it?

Most people won't care and continue using it anyways.

I won't, for sure, but most people are fucking idiots when it comes to this stuff
