  Of course Phoronix does not report the important follow up message in the thread:

  Rust is already a hard requirement on all Debian release architectures and ports except for alpha, hppa, m68k, and sh4 (which do not provide sqv).

  It was not copper. Look at the spacing on the text around the word.

  I’m including whoever wrote the Spock’s Brain episode.

  The episode’s dialogue is much better if you replace “brain” with “dick”.

  Or magnetic USB-C adapters. Keeps the gunk out of the charging port while still retaining functionality (including fast charging). There's also charge-only adapters, which are handy for travel when you don't trust the port the phone is connected to.

  NFC, probably.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Where can I buy used computers, and are they on a discount now because of Windows 10 end of life?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Assets. That's what I get for trusting the phone keyboard.

  Find companies that resell EOL corporate arrest like refurb.io

  [...] and mostly ignores it

  That's not where my gutter brain went after reading the first five words. Where my brain did go was a Hans Niemann scenario.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Common inhalers carry heavy climate cost, study finds⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If you'd read the article (or even the excerpt that OP included), the author firmly places the blame on the American medical and insurance industry that is refusing to cover inhaler versions without greenhouse gas propellants.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OpenAI admits AI hallucinations are mathematically inevitable, not just engineering flaws⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Instead they keep stacking more and more techniques to try and steer and reign in this deviation.

  I hate how the tech bros immediately say "this can be solved with an MCP server." Bitch, if the only thing that keeps the LLM from giving me wrong answers is the MCP server, then said server is the one that's actually producing the answers I need, and the LLM is just lipstick on a pig.

  They also have better thermal stability, so less risk of uncontrolled fires.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The USA prided itself on a nation of immigrant, heck even the Statue of Liberty says it. When did immigrants (US citizens from the old world) become anti immigrant and why?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The English version is "I got mine, fuck you."

  Also applies to immigrant minorities who them vote conservative to keep other immigrants out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK The World’s Most Common Passwords⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Before password composition rules, those were actually quite common, as well as passwords that were just the same as the username. Heck, it wasn't until that long ago that router manufacturers used to ship with admin/admin as the default credentials.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I wish there was an uninhabited, autonomous zone for folks who want "freedom" to play out their dangerous ideas away from the rest of society⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It ended up on a cliffhanger. If season 2 made you give up then the rest will likely not be your cup of tea either.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I wish there was an uninhabited, autonomous zone for folks who want "freedom" to play out their dangerous ideas away from the rest of society⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Westworld explored that idea. It doesn't end well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reverse Proxy Monitoring⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds like what you want is tracing. OpenTelemetry is the de facto standard for that. Couple it with aggressive sampling (here's a great talk on it https://www.usenix.org/conference/srecon24americas/presentation/cruz ) and you'll have a very efficient way of identifying use patterns.

  All ad networks, even the less intrusive ones, can be abused to distribute malware. In this day and age not having an ad blocker is like rawdogging internet strangers.
