It’s a form of “justice porn”. You’re right that these scammers are victims themselves. But seeing how they treat vulnerable groups (particularly less tech savvy, trusting, older people - which may well be your mom one day) is absolutely fu

And thankfully a lot of people realize that’s utter bullshit and are taking measures to fight off further enshittification. I’m not a nationalist but things like the GDPR and DMA make me proud to be European.

What do you think Melon Tusk is doing, apart from letting out his inner (and outer) (and literal) child on the world stage?

Yep, that's exactly what I'm looking for. Your bash script is far less of an abomination than what you made it sound like :)

I’m also a long time i3/sway user and find Niri quite comfy. I can carry over most of my muscle memory from sway for navigating the focus, moving windows etc. I’ve also found it to be very stable and works out of the box with xwayland

Okay, you know what? I laughed a few times. Yeah it may not work as an actual stand up routine to a general audience, it’s kinda cringe (as most LLM-generated content), but it was legitimately entertaining to read.

In my experience with AI for research and programming I find the opposite. It lets me get to the FAFO stage sooner, so I can try many possible paths (many of which may be dead ends).

Looking at their actual results ( https://preview.redd.it/znmnejgab5je1.png?width=1000&format=... ), I don't see any positive or negative correlation. Although I can subjectively confirm the hypothesis.

Thank you for putting this so eloquently, especially “the majority of people are only barely paying attention”. It’s not necessarily bad, as you said, just the reality. We may wish that reality were different or so, but we shouldn’t resent

You should do it! It's never been more accessible and affordable (relatively speaking, of course). And it's a lot of fun!

I remember when PistonMiner finished the fix and executed it on the "flight model". They were quite literally jumping up and down in happiness and the whole Chair of Space Technology at TU Berlin was gossipping about it in the hal

I know it’s off topic but this post reeks of LLM-generated content. The itemized lists with bold two word headings are a dead giveaway.

A student in my university and friend of mine wrote their Bachelor's thesis on recovering BEESAT-1, the first CubeSat launched by the TU Berlin back in 2009, after it was rendered inoperable due to some unfortunate circumstances. I viv

Just read the SPIEGEL article and I think it’s a pretty balanced report on the positions of both sides. Basically, it comes down to the assertion that you can’t reach a large number of electricity generation plants with “simple radio equipm

Thank you for your work on Ferrocene! I particularly appreciate that you're open about the price, at least for a starter license. We're using Rust for space applications, and while we don't have a need to certify our software

Hey, thank you for trying to donate and sorry it was more difficult than it should be. I think even writing about the effort that you put into it helps. <3

The payment information is a bit obfuscated, being only a parenthesized sequence of letters and numbers in the OP. IBAN: DE41 2001 0020 0599 0902 01 BIC: PBNKDEFFXXX Purpose: Lokomotive Payee: CCC eV

That’s a fair point and I had to re-read that sentence multiple times to understand what they are saying. They should indeed say how much money towards this cause has been received.

I just donated 133,7€ and will gladly do it again if further legal costs arise. Please consider also making a generous donation and post about it in this thread. What Newag is doing here is absolutely vile. They want to charge 20.000€ per

This is an (unfortunate?) part of the Rust ecosystem. Reminds me of the JS/NPM mess. I think it is a bit better in the Rust world, but I’m still undecided if it is acceptable to have so many crate dependencies for conceptually simple p
