How are you supposed to make peace with a pedophile rapist who has staffed his office with racist Warhawk morons who are convinced they can do whatever they want with complete impunity, and they start bombing you while you are under diplomatic negotiations (twice!)?
The company had about 162,000 full-time employees as of May 31, 2025, according to its annual filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
What the fuck how is it that many people. I didn’t realize this shit company run by the shittiest group of people run such a huge operation.
Fuck Larry Ellison. Scumbag.
Eden wasn’t really on GitHub, except for binary distribution (presumably because of the cost of doing that was $0).
I’ve been self-hosting for years, but with a recent move comes a recent opportunity to do my network a bit differently. I’m now running a capable OpenWRT router, and support for AdGuard Home is practically built into OpenWRT. I just needed to configure it right and set it up, but the documentation was comprehensive enough.
For years I had kept a Debian VM for Pi-Hole running. I kept it ultra lean with a cloud kernel and 3 gb of disk space and 160MB of RAM, just so it could control its own network stack. And I’d set devices to manually use its IP address to be covered. AGH seems to be about the same exact thing as Pi-Hole. With my new setup the entire network is covered automatically without having to configure any device. And yes, I know I could’ve done the same before by forwarding the DNS lookups to the Pi-Hole, but I was always afraid it would cause a problem for me and I’d need an easy way to back out of the adblocking. Subjectively, over about 6 years, I only had a couple worthless websites that blocked me out.
I haven’t yet gotten to the point where I’m trying to also to intercept hardcoded DNS lookups, but soon… It’s not urgent for me because I don’t have sinister devices that do that.
While I agree overall it looks nice, I hate gaps and rounded corners. I’m sick of wasted space. And I’m sick of rounded corners.
I swear some people would use NetScape GUI if they could.
Now that would actually be nice!!
So they’re from the “America is the land of milk and honey, where there is endless opportunity, and dreams can come true” generation of migrants.
My own family is the same, but the illusion has been shattered for them over the last several years.
Not to my knowledge or intention.
It’s not quite the “fell for it again” award. It’s the “duped because I’m ignorant about history” award. Even if you are against Khamenei and the cleric class of leaders, the Americans are not, and never will be, your friends.
Someone with a backbone and conscience. If more European leaders understood this they could form some sort of cohesive, idk, Union. And use that “bloc” as a power base to negotiate from. So that they don’t all have to bend over and submit to the will of the United States every time we tell them to jump and bark.
Iran has a right to defend itself.
Three of them! Incredible!
I’ll do what the US and Israel have done multiple times now and just claim this was done by a friendly fire US missile
No, no. You misunderstood. You have a “memory” of a thing called DDR5, which you used to be able to afford and purchase. You are supposed to bring that memory with you to reminisce fondly while using this piece of junk Dell is trying to sell you.
The scary part is how they succeed in their objectives. I’m still not over Maduro’s kidnapping and how they pulled it off. It’s freakish.
VSCodium has never promoted itself as anything more than a compilation of VSCode’s base with telemetry disabled and proprietary components, naturally, not included. It has never promised anything else than that. Of course the changes are “dutifully incorporated” into Codium. It’s not a point of that project to be different. Your first remark made it seem like Microsoft has somehow infiltrated the VSCodium project and changed what it does.
I “use” ChatGPT because my employer has forced it into the workflow, and they’re the ones paying OpenAI. So I now have a linear relationship with ChatGPT through my employer. The more work I do, the more I use ChatGPT, even though I do not have a choice in the matter and if it were up to me I’d not be using any AI tools at all.
Using it is now part of my performance evaluation beginning this year.
What do you mean about VSCodium? Obviously it’s just a differently compiled version of Microsoft’s text editor, but what does Microsoft have to do with it, otherwise?
If it’s in line with international law they should be defending Iranians against the illegal aggression of the USA. Though obviously that’s not kid starver’s meaning
Interesting writing. But my concern is that social responsibility will be dumped by the cost factor as he said. Anything that is GPL is under threat by an AI-based reimplementation. The cost of doing that seems artificially low now (investment hype phase, not ROI phase of these businesses), so it’s not really the idea anyone could do it that concerns me. The concerning part is no matter the price, bigger companies can take the hit and now direct their resources to undo the GPL everywhere and simultaneously replace labor in doing it.
