- Comment on Stop calling them tech companies: GenAI and SaaS — are they really tech? It’s time to call a spade a spade. 14 hours ago:
To summarize, “I have a POV that almost no one else has. Why is everyone not naming things the way I see them.”
Yes, pinocchio, your company is a real tech company because they use tech tools.
(sorry, it’s just a tech leveraging company, the same way my bus driver leverages the bus but does not fix or build it. My bus driver is not a bus; just the driver)

can’t seem to find a whitelist-only-JS feature
There’s one in your browser.

Do you really run a whitelist rather than a blacklist?
That’s a weird question. That ‘yes’ seems as easy as “do you wear your seat belt? Every TIME?!?”
Is it not tedious to add hundreds of domains to one rather than a few to the other?
After about a dozen you’re kinda set. I will enable one-offs in a private window, usually for shit news sites or the very occasional referral farm, and the exceptions are all reverted when I close the tab.

- Comment on Trump says U.S. will 'get Greenland,' military force may not be needed but not ruled out 2 days ago:
Dude. Every greenlander probably knows how to shoot a rifle and survive in polar bear land. This is like Vietnam but with fucking bears and Vikings.
- Comment on Selfhosting Sunday - What's up? 3 days ago:
A LOT of plugins in many projects are a huge concern. I say this as someone who ran security for an OS for a while. It’s just people making bad decisions for everyone and then hand-waving the risks when questioned.
- Comment on Interesting SSH Authentication Mechanism 4 days ago:
fuck managing ssh key auth for hundreds of engineers.
You can pull the ssh key out of LDAP/AD. We did this 10 years ago. Really slick.
- Comment on Other than a faulty charging port, is there any reason to use a wireless phone charger over wired? 4 days ago:
This is one of those things where you either live it and love it, or never understand.
Qi charging changes your very life.
This cannot be explained in words.
- Comment on DOGE Plans to Rebuild SSA Codebase in Months, Risking Benefits and System Collapse 5 days ago:
AT BEST it’s gonna be some ridiculous npm svalbard worth of projects in one tree, require all new hardware, and declare bankruptcy on the way. Canada did this with the Phoenix Pay System, except didn’t have ‘efficient’ funding so it only sucked but didn’t die.

- Comment on how tf do you warm up plates? 1 week ago:
If you’re to the level of warming plates in your pancake game, those must be some kickass flapjacks.
Flappy flabby fatbastard fluffy flapjacks, ferda.
- Comment on Europe is looking for alternatives to US cloud providers 1 week ago:
No, they just need to enforce PDFs for things that leave an office so everyone else isn’t locked into loading and running a bloated mess just to view a read-only spreadsheet.
The analogue to the printed chart isn’t an XLS6 attached to e-mail. It’s a PDF.
That’s it. Done.

- Comment on Self-hosted SSO 2 weeks ago:
Kerberos, you say? Single sign-on?
Have you heard about the LDAP and Kerberos configured as part of setting up samba4ad?
I accidentally enabled SSO SSH a few years back. My samba units aren’t on PIs but they could be. They’re just on tiny tiny VMs.
- Comment on It's quite strange that I can just go online and say a thing and probably atleast a thousand people are going to read it. 2 weeks ago:

Not a word.
- Comment on I bet most male cinematographers take some of the best dick pics, with their knowledge of lighting, angles, and whatnot. 2 weeks ago:
As they have a job and are likely over the age of 22, are dick pics by adults really that common; or just a sign of some flavour of mental illness?
- Comment on Discord going public. Plz help a future refugee. 2 weeks ago:
Isn’t the video the jingle part that Google added to jabber originally (before it dumped everything to remake it from the group up about 4 more times like a GSoC crossed over with groundhogDay)?

They don’t put the big airports in the sticks. Where do you think people are when they’re stepping off a plane, given the odds?
