- Comment on Prison Architect 2 transitioning game to a different studio 2 days ago:
Yeah I was an early adopter myself, it was my gateway drug into rimworld and dwarf fortress. I stopped playing shortly after they sold the studio
- Comment on Does it seem odd to track my lifespan? 4 days ago:
I actually have a death date. It helps a lot with being able to plan my life and live in a way where I’ll be happy with my life if I were to die tommorow.
If I reach that date then great, anything after I just consider a bonus lol
- Comment on Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (2001) 1 month ago:
It’s a common saying, at least in north america. I didn’t even think about it reading it, but when you brought it up it does really sound like a typo haha
- Comment on “Disabling cyberattacks” are hitting critical US water systems, White House warns 1 month ago:
Not if you want them to act in a distributed way, unless you are talking private microwave or other private hardline networks, which would be extremely cost prohibitive.
- Comment on I've noticed my boomer parents using Instagram and tik tok. I can't tell you how excited I am for them to kill those platforms like they did facebook. 2 months ago:
The sooner it all goes to shit, the sooner we can move on.
- Comment on U.S. floods arms into Israel despite mounting alarm over war’s conduct 2 months ago:
Yuri Orlov: [in an interrogation room] The reason I’ll be released is the same reason you think I’ll be convicted. I do rub shoulders with some of the most vile, sadistic men calling themselves leaders today. But some of these men are the enemies of your enemies. And while the biggest arms dealer in the world is your boss - the President of the United States, who ships more merchandise in a day than I do in a year - sometimes it’s embarrassing to have his fingerprints on the guns. Sometimes he needs a freelancer like me to supply forces he can’t be seen supplying. So. You call me evil, but unfortunately for you, I’m a necessary evil.

That’s a myth.
From wikipedia:
Bacteria and pathogens
Urine is not sterile, not even in the bladder.[21][22] In the urethra, epithelial cells lining the urethra are colonized by facultatively anaerobic Gram-negative rod and cocci bacteria.[23] One study conducted in Nigeria isolated a total of 77 distinct bacterial strains from 100 healthy children (ages 5–11) as well as 39 strains from 33 cow urine samples, a considerable amount being pathogens.[24]
- Comment on US patent office confirms AI can’t hold patents 2 months ago:
But once they have the patent they can license it to others, this denies them the chance. The point being that the idea may die with the person rather then ever being known in the first place if filing is too big a burden.
My understanding is you have to regularly pay to keep a patent valid until expiry, but I could be mistaken. Varies by country I’m sure.
I agree with your premise that it’s better that someone with intent use it, but it’s not that black and white.
- Comment on US patent office confirms AI can’t hold patents 2 months ago:
The problem with making it a lot more costly results it much more difficult / impossible for a unfunded individual to file a patent vs corporations.

- Comment on Anybody here running AD on-prem in your homelab? 2 months ago:
The attack vectors I’m thinking of just come from the inherent complexity and centralization. I’m just considering the amount of damage that can be done with a compromised DA account for example vs a non directory environment.
It’s complicated. Done right it can be more secure, not done right it’s less secure.
I also only get brought in for problems for the last however many years, so I’m probaby a bit biased at this point haha.
I have had to tell companies they are going to have to rebuild thier AD from scratch because they didn’t know what thier DSRM password was (usually after a ransomware attack). These are the sort of hassles I think about vs non AD.
- Comment on Anybody here running AD on-prem in your homelab? 2 months ago:
You could look at freeIPA or something similar to stay on Linux.
I’m an AD specialist, starting when it came out with server 2000, and can tell you it’s a waste of time for a home network unless you are doing this just because you want to learn it.
It will definitly not make your life any easier, and will increase attack vectors, especially if you don’t know how to secure and protect it.

You mean the late 1900’s
- Comment on OpenAI wants to raise 5-7 trillion dollars. Yes, Trillion 2 months ago:
Over 6 trillion USD alone gets exchanged everyday on the currency markets. Cash flow is not the only source of money either, its an interface when value needs to be exchanged.
Open cash flow worldwide is about 35 trillion.
This is just cash though, if you take all markets and derivitives, depending on how you measure it - if you want to be technical about represented value then that’s worth over a quadrillion USD.
When you talk about reallocation of assets you are playing in the pool of a quadrillion dollars, not in the pool of free cash flow (the interface to it)

- Comment on DocuSign to lay off 6% of workforce, or about 440 jobs 3 months ago:
Sales, marketing and support most likely. It has a massive corporate userbase. I’m guessing the actual tech side of the house is only a small fraction.
