  Oh man, if you haven’t used linux is that long it’s changed drastically (for the better) since then.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Silksong] Patch Version 1.0.28497 Now Live⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Afaik they didn’t nerf splinter herself, just the mobs she spawned, which I think is justified because the way they spinned and blocked attacks made it seeningly impossible to kill before splinter came back

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨French lawmakers urged a social media ban for under-15s and "digital curfew" for older minors⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s getting pushed by the least popular party in the government, it’s very unlikely to pass, imo

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨French lawmakers urged a social media ban for under-15s and "digital curfew" for older minors⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  That doesn’t seem to be the primary reason to me, given I went to french high school, and they didn’t shy away from talking about the shitty stuff france did and does.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s because the french media industry is very strong, and virtually everything is dubbed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK: Before she was the CEO of BlueSky Jay Graeber worked in cryptocurrency⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, because it is, you can host your own server (pds, relay and UI) on like a 30$ vps.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How decentralized Bluesky is compared to the Fediverse.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Blacksky runs their own relay

  Consentaumatic does the cookie thing

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bounce launches a service for moving accounts between Bluesky and Mastodon⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I see why you think that, and I agree threads sucks. But bsky is actually fully open source and they are actively working to make federation better. Will they enshittify? Yes, probably when the current ceo leaves. But by then other services will have popped up, and ATproto is built in such a way that you can move services without your current service’s consent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bounce launches a service for moving accounts between Bluesky and Mastodon⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I agree. That’s why I’m happy it’s fully decentralised, so that by the time they try to do that, they’ll be but one player on atproto, and won’t be able to get away with it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bounce launches a service for moving accounts between Bluesky and Mastodon⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It is actually decentralized though? You can host your own pds and relay for pretty cheap now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨China cut itself off from the global internet on Wednesday⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tencent doesn’t care if it can buy American GPUs again – it already has all the chips it needs⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, the original person give a (admittly, secondary) source, in the form of ed zitron’s blog, I have already read it, so I know it’s not bs.

  If you don’t know, why make the claim

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tencent doesn’t care if it can buy American GPUs again – it already has all the chips it needs⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  source?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Starlink tries to block Virginia’s plan to bring fiber Internet to residents⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And across the pond the french government spent 20bn to have the government build out fiber and now basically everyone in france has super cheap fiber internet.

  Paying companies to do stuff that’s against their financial incentives doesn’t work.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The AI bubble is so big it's propping up the US economy (for now)⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  …No, the point is that the initial buildout of infrastructure is easier and higher-value than renewing it, so it makes sense china has more modern infrastructure than other countries, given how recently they’ve industrialized.
