- Comment on New York state bans DeepSeek from government devices 2 weeks ago:
Not in my company. Got mine empty, set it up myself from scratch. No supervision of any kind. Along with a great boss, it’s one of the reasons why I wouldn’t change company. 🎶
When I hear from some of my friends how each of their seconds and 🐭 moves are tracked… 🙄

Yep. It’ll work fine until it doesn’t.
- Comment on Court Orders Google (a Monopolist) To Knock It Off With the Monopoly Stuff. 3 months ago:
Because I was obviously unaware of the idiocy of the US justice system, and naively gave them the benefit of the doubt.
Under normal circumstances, it’d take Google about 3 years to stall the process of opening.
This will achieve nothing, and it would’ve been better for US consumers if my bold assumption had been correct.

Yeah, makes no sense - could it be that the poster isn’t native speaker and actually meant: “in the next three years”, implying that the criteria must be met within that timeframe…

For these types of articles where the “info” is actually 1-2 sentences, 90% of the time I’ll rather read executive summary like yours.
Thanks! 🍻

Yep, was afraid of that. Sadly, not a solution for me then.
Thanks nevertheless! 🍻

I checked out Tailscale, and my 👀 popped when I realized what it does! 😄
I proceeded to install it on my phone, only to realize a moment later that my connection was down. I headed over to my Rethink DNS firewall and saw that Tailscale had taken over my VPN connection, causing Rethink to shut everything down (as it’s supposed to).
Now, unfortunately, I’m probably gonna find out that Tailscale works like this and that I cannot use it because I’d have to drop my firewall? 🙈

Just goes to show that even a legend can act like an idiot.

Same here. 😅

If it wasn’t clear from my comment, I’m not defending Musk. Don’t care much about him.
I just don’t envy the judge that has to consider this. I’m a musician, and find it complicated to judge such issues in the musical landscape.

Ridiculous confession, as well as the article. “I should’ve burned more money, that would solve everything.”
There’s really a lecture material there. 😆

There’s a Reader mode in Firefox/Mull that you press before the page completely loads, i.e. before the wall appears. Works on most sites.

Yeah, don’t know what to think. Is this closer to copying a melody from a certain ballad or using the same chords that no-one owns and have been reused through decades to write a ballad… 🤔

- Comment on Microsoft has a big Windows 10 problem, and only one year to solve it 4 months ago:
Exactly - not enough to matter so not a lot.
Enthusiasts willing to get out of their comfort zone in whatever topic we choose are rare like kryptonite. The fact that you know 10 people, or a 1000 is by no means a lot considering the number of PC users.

So, experiences are different. My point exactly.
