A good point. I was unclear. I meant it in the sense that if the JS doesn't run fully successfully there won't be text, or images, or even source mark-up. Just some lists of remote JS CDN in source if anything. It'll mostly j

An agent has nothing to process if there's no text on the page. There are few things less accessible than web applications depending on bleeding edge javascript that might not get successfully executed. There are few things more access

Iowa has about 40/60 paved/unpaved ratio. Wisconsin has about 85/15. (stats counting only primary and secondary (county) roads). ref: https://bikeiowa.com/Feature/1543/iowa-gravel-what-makes-it-... ,

I also grew up in Wisconsin and Iowa. Iowa's road system may be comprehensive but a very substantial fraction of those are unpaved gravel roads. Wisconsin's roads are paved.

In 2015, yes. In 2025? Probably not. Imgur is enshittifying rapidly since reddit started it's own image host. Lots of censorship and corporate gentrification. There's still some hangers on but it's a small group. 15 comments

The corporations are the problem, not the people, not even the AI. It's incorporated persons and their perverse profit incentives causing them to behave this way. Nothing intrinsic for AI is talked about in this write up. It's all

Seems like all regions of the world all falling into their own particular flavors of authoritarian fascism. EU's better than most but this is absolutely draconian. We all know this won't actually be feasible to implement but the e

A tool that was only released, what, a year or two ago? It simply won't be present in nearly all OS/distros. Only modern or rolling will have it (maybe). It's funny when the recommended python dependency manager managers are

Yep. Python stopped being Python a decade ago. Now there are just innumberable Pythons. Perl... on the otherhand, you can still run any perl script from any time on any system perl interpreter and it works! Granted, perl is unpopular and

Windows was an amazing exception to this rule for 2 decades. It's incredibly impressive that win32 still works on modern Windows installs. But that's changing fast now.

Glad the title was changed because this article isn't about HTML at all. Instead it seems to be about corporate/for-profit needs for their web applications that happen to touch HTML in some parts. All about throwing away the good

Unless explicitly addressed rot rate is proportional to popularity. Unpopular targets, platforms, languages, etc don't get changed and provide a much needed refuge. There are some interpreted languages like perl where a program written

That's true. But those aren't the people thinking about setting up NASes. Or at least not in my tech support experience. Those people will just have giant fragile octopuses of external USB drives. But it is a problem that most peo

Or: don't build a NAS at all and just put the hard drives in the machine you intend to use. This has many advantages including: price, performance, reliability, not having to run an entire second computer (just leave the computer on an

Not unexpected. The FBI has generally been a gang filled with thieves for at least 20 years. I'm not old enough to know if it was always like this. It takes a lot of guts, and some real resources, to fight back when the FBI violates yo

I write some new Perl/Gtk application a couple times a year. And I use it for automating basic things almost daily. I bet lots of people chose to write in perl for personal projects. It just isn't very visible. But not that many

Why would you want to run a locked down a crippled version of linux when you can run the real thing? And if there really are services that only are accessible through iphone/android applications, you probably should not support them.

The only winning move is not to play the game. One has to have a phone these days but you don't have to do your computing on it (during personal time). Use a real computer instead.

I trust Debian to vet and package things in a way that won't break my desktop. I don't trust the Rust organization because their goals are very different.

Yes, but it's a game. Unlike, say, Game of Thrones, a live action depiction of such actions (and worse!) with real human bodies. Broadcast to the entire world, a global phenomenon, and no issues with payment providers or morality. And

Indeed. curl | sh is literally the #1 recommended and most common way to install the rust development toolchain (because it changes too rapidly to effectively be in any repos). It's crazy that a language that prioritizes security so hi

Yeah, I can see that. But for human people not at work there are no products. There are no "expensive" mistakes. There's just the ability to automate tasks and do simple things they, I, couldn't do before. No reason at a
