This question can be read as a troll, and a glorious one at that.

There are so many arguments around what UNIX is and isn't / was and wasn't. I would argue that Sun perfected the idea of what we now think of as a UNIX workstation. Somewhere between the SparcStation 10 and Ultra 1.

I remember a line from the Hbomb video about plagiarism talking about how you only plagiarize if you don’t view the thing you’re stealing as having worth, and that’s the same as all this AI stuff. Music has worth because it takes time and skill and devotion and it’s not worth having if it doesn’t

All right, folks, let's say, hypothetically, your following is very carefully and purposefully curated to include a lot of stuff that is likely to infuriate or sadden you at any given moment. What feeds do you recommend that are... not that?

I've heard that the trick to avoid this is to not buy the DIY, but the built systems since they install the OS and test as part of their process. Yes, this does hurt the product significantly to me.

I am in the post and am mostly fine with it. I just wish they'd put 2 m.2 2280 slots in the Framework 16 rather than 1 2280 and 1 2242.

Digital identity is going to be a hugely important space in the next few years. A lot of complaints in this thread highlight the reasons why.
There's a whole lot of conversation still to be had about proving identity, but just want to call out that this option is available right now (and super cool to see!)

Hi everyone.

The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.

We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.

We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.

I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.
The Onion Buys Alex Jones’s Infowars Out of Bankruptcy
The satirical news site planned to turn Infowars into a parody of itself, mocking “weird internet personalities” who peddle conspiracy theories and health supplements.
