- Comment on Petition calls to ban Elon Musk's X in Europe 2 days ago:
operate in != run from
If you want an apt example of a company ‘run from’ America not allowed to ‘operate in’ another jurisdiction:

Must to what?
- Comment on 2024 Self-Host User Survey Results 4 weeks ago:
Btw also an awesome way of telling people you’re pregnant.
- Comment on Lebanon’s health minister says 8 killed, 2,750 wounded by exploding pagers 2 months ago:
I heard they recently switched to pagers because cell phones where deemed to be compromised. So I think besides the direct deaths and injuries, this attack also targeted lines of communication and trust in technology as a whole (or anything supplied by your superior even).
- Comment on Italy | In drought-hit Sicily, rainwater is dumped in the sea 3 months ago:
That’s why I deleted the message a minute after I posted it ;). The ambiguous use of ‘it’ in one sentence is still sloppy writing though.
- Comment on Italy | In drought-hit Sicily, rainwater is dumped in the sea 3 months ago:
But the infrastructure not only never got the green light, it was also subsequently neglected.
How can planned infrastructure that never got to exist, be neglected?
- Comment on Cars Are Now Rolling Computers Now. So What Happens When They Stop Getting Updates? 3 months ago:
I’d think so too, but (I assume) you and I don’t have a small army of lawyers and lobbyists on retainer.
- Comment on Cars Are Now Rolling Computers Now. So What Happens When They Stop Getting Updates? 3 months ago:
I think the question is not if it’s solvable, but ‘who pays for it?’ and ‘who can be held accountable if things go awry?’
- Comment on 3 months ago:
So we just invert the logic now, right?
Make the captcha impossibly hard to get right for humans but doable for bots, and let people in if they fail the test. - Comment on Finland passes bill to stop migrants at border 4 months ago:
In IKEA’s maze, I wander and roam, A labyrinth of lamps and cozy home, With dreams of a kitchen so sleek and neat, Yet lost in a forest of self-assemble seats.
Through endless aisles of chairs and beds, Where visions of storage dance in my head, I search for an exit, a path to be free, But each turn I take leads me back to B3.
Then a thought occurs, a curious twist, Could it be the CIA in on this? They’ve changed the directions and turned me around, In IKEA, forever, I’m helplessly bound.
- Comment on X weighs adding a downvote button to replies — but it doesn't want to emulate Reddit 4 months ago:
I think they should go all in on emulating reddit. In fact, I think they should get more in line with the naming scheme of reddit, an re-rename their brand to X-it.

Every rule has an exception.
That sure sounds like a rule with no exception

Impressive porn collection you got there.
- Comment on RISC-V adoption predicted to get AI boost — forecast shows 50% growth every year until 2030 for the open-standard ISA 5 months ago:
Sounds like wishful thinking to me. How is RISC-V stacking up to competitor architectures nowadays performance-wise? Last time I checked they were seriously lagging behind. Wouldn’t recent AI developments (constantly requiring more computing power) be especially something that would hinder RISC-V taking off in the next couple of years?
- Comment on Eye-tattooing: experts warn about risks of colour-changing surgery 5 months ago:
Solid advice, right up there with the one about yellow snow.

“I went to the bluesky board meeting today, I did a business!”
- Comment on Peter Thiel was trapped inside a student debating hall by pro-Palestine protesters accusing him of genocide 6 months ago:
Mediocre and cheap?
- Comment on FCC explicitly prohibits fast lanes, closing possible net neutrality loophole 6 months ago:
It’s so weird that that phrasing is even accepted as the norm. It would be unacceptable if a grocery store charges you for ‘up to’ 2 liters of soda, and then tells you to go fuck yourself when they give you only 0.5 liter.
- Comment on Mona: Australia women's-only museum files appeal to keep men out 6 months ago:
That’s a pretty scary and naïve world view. Luckily you’re not in charge of making the laws (I presume).
- Comment on Mona: Australia women's-only museum files appeal to keep men out 6 months ago:
So what you’re saying is I can open up a place, put a sign in front with ‘Irish need not apply’ and water fountain inside that says ‘colored only’, and that should be legal according to you?
- Comment on Motorist dies after crashing into White House gate 6 months ago:
I wouldn’t categorize getting sniped as ‘only … a traffic crash’.
