#Gender

Can we do this? Is this something we can do? How do we start this ball rolling? Do we have a project head in place already? A gofundme? Is this going to be a rotating post or something kind of collective council?

This is one of my favorite weird mice: a Bluetooth combo mouse and number pad with built in calculator, made by Canon. There’s a button you can use to send the result of your calculations to the computer.

dear literally anyone who is doing journalism right now,

if you use an ai generated image as the centerpiece for your article i will:

• probably not fucking read it
• forever write off your work
• complain to my friends (your potential future audience)

there are also thousands of images you can use for free that aren't being fed through a plagiarism engine. i should know, i've used these myself for my old articles on medium.

use (freee!!!!) royalty free work, pay an artist, or just don't include an image at all. full stop. stop clowning around.

the worst part about software vulnerabilities is the hitpiece reporting stating complete and utter nonsense

like how the claim “openssh is affected” completely overshadowed that it only would be through patches that let it interface with the actually affected systemd

and better yet, how all of that is focused on to the point it overshadows the actual scary parts, namely that noone fucking noticed. it came down to a random guy just stumbling over this mere days before it wouldve been included with ubuntu 24.04, it was in several rolling release distros and the testing versions of stable ones already, this was a terrifying incident waiting for just the tiniest nudge turning it into a complete disaster

and the worst part, its not that unexpected, this was basic social engineering, they found a weak link (tired, overworked maintainer), offered to help, gained their trust by taking on an ever-increasing amount of responsibilities before enacting their plan
