I haven't had the courage to run executable code from P2P networks since the early 2000s. Even then it was probably a bad idea.

chrome : chromium :: vscode : vscodium

That's a good pun. Clearly the authors have mastered the second hardest problem in computer science.

AOL came on floppies originally, but the quality was so poor that you could barely rewrite them.

If you keep going there accidentally due to muscle memory, try adding ai.com to the My filters tab in uBlock Origin.

You can even have your printer run shell commands

I briefly considered using Klipper to make a clock that prints 1 layer per minute, but gave up after realizing it'd be unreadable after the first hour:

I had been using ai.com for months, as a convenient way to reach https://chat.openai.com/. Now it redirects to an Elon Musk website.

Presumably this means the domain was never controlled by OpenAI in the first place.

SMOKING WORDS CAUSES CANCER

I think it's okay to burn any commercially mass produced book that you own, as this is effectively a form of speech.

Destroying a rare historical artifact seems unethical, regardless of its contents.

I asked our AI overlords for an appropriate punishment:

The company executives have to spend the weekend acting as city gardeners, complete with typical gardening attire, tending to the local parks and trees - ensuring the community that they're committed to their "root-level" duties.

I was using voip.ms last year when they were DDoS'd for over a week, by a group demanding payment via anonymous crypto. The DDoS ended when they switched to CloudFlare (which was probably pretty difficult because they're a SIP provider.)

Almost any website with a small number of servers is vulnerable to this attack, which happens to be great business for CloudFlare. I wonder which companies are most effectively competing with CloudFlare?

At least my washing machine plays a cute little tune.

Is it an LG?

The best you can realistically do is vote for people who care about solving the problem, and against people who ignore the problem.

I had some missing LEGO bits, so I found the components on ldraw.org, converted to STL with LDView, and butchered them together with Fusion360.

In this case, I merged 3 parts into one, so I'd only have to deal with 1 interface instead of 5. The sanding probably made it worse.

Benchy floats! (lemmy.world)

The #3DBenchy model usually capsizes in water, but I found that with the right slicer settings, it will actually float upright: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6076719

I see that lemmy.ml is the only major instance currently reachable over IPv6. When will lemmy.world join the modern internet?
