Cory Doctorow also thinks that it is a coalition of true believers high on their own supply, and cynical grifters collaborating with them. https://pluralistic.net/2026/09/17/porque-no-los-dos/#fascist-incoherence

This is a boss’s wet dream. However a kitchen is the type of chaotic real world situation that AIs are unlikely to ever do well.

This is my favorite video from him, back before yt existed and the internet was weird

Fun fact, Raizin is the creator of BoJack HorseMan

Subnautica

I am inevitable

Also local chipotles vary widely in quality and some are pretty good food and portions for the cost.

Unfortunately don’t feel like supporting them now that they do business with Palantir

Yep, it does. All the websites that don’t work in Firefox also tend to suck

Can you find the name of this cheese?

A local chili place has been using tvp in their veggie chili for literally decades. It is perfection

I agree as well. It is great to have more options. I only hear this from non-veg people too, which makes sense. The meat version tastes better, so what reason would they have to eat an alternative?

I still remember the good ole boy i worked with who had alpha gal… He was def eating the morningstar burgers then! Even though he’d rather have the real thing.

Truly

There are plenty of over-designed, heavy “Web apps” which don’t work correctly in Firefox. My college’s Web portal is one.

If you create a support ticket, they tell you to use a supported browser

To me it makes the meaning clearer by using the same term in two different contexts, to build upon and link to previous learning

What is your policy on AI?

The definition of “sideload”

I think the days of caring about this are over.

Old and tired: which distro is best

New and fresh: which distros have the right policy on AI?

Sugar is the devil’s carbohydrate

This plays into the big corps’ plans.

Ideally they’d like self-regulation. If this isn’t feasible (for example, because the public hates data centers and AI slop) their next best option is government regulation ASAP, because it is likely to be ineffective as written by our current government, and enable them as “too big to fail/too big to care” while any startups are suppressed.

But it’s not just me saying it. https://shellypalmer.com/2023/06/ai-the-unseen-threat-and-the-agi-smoke-screen/

From the AI industry’s point of view, if regulators say no to self-regulation, the next best thing would be governments imposing regulations ASAP. Inept government regulation (and that is what we are likely to get) would practically ensure that big tech stays big and small companies are shut out of the AI innovation race because big tech is in a much better position to “game” any rules regulators might impose.

There are probably less biased sources out there – this author is the CEO of an AI consulting company – but i think they’re right.

I never know what it wants, and it seems to deny me either way.

Xorg had several proprietary clones, and their software authors described how they chose MIT specifically to spite Richard Stallman who annoyed them, but with the benefit of hindsight they conceded that he had been right about the licenses. I saw this in a talk on YouTube somewhere.

I think I’d rather have it be rust AND copyleft, so the only projects that can use it are the ones that contribute back to society
