LWN claims that we'll be switching away from mailing lists for kernel development. I guess that would save us quite a bit on ink and goose feathers.

Today, 15 years ago the person or group with the fictive name of β€œSatoshi Nakamoto” created the first cryptocurrency named Bitcoin with the thought of it becoming a secure and fast alternative to fiat currency.

Now it's known as the most wasteful use of electricity, inefficient and limiting capability/functionality, as well as being among the most insecure and de-anonymizing ways to transfer money.

However, what Satoshi Nakamoto probably hasn't expected is how many scam-currencies would come after theirs, and how their invention would create a new breed of the most annoying people known to our species: crypto-bros.

Is there an "AI" for soundscapes the same there is for images? For example, I want to be able to give a prompt "middle of the ocean in a small raft with the wind starting to pick up as a faraway thunderstorm approaches" and get a looping sample. It would be awesome for reading books.

When attacks dozens of cities they think it's "okay" but when strikes back they want an international investigation?

Don't make me laugh.. from sadness

Sorry but what a crap country has Russia become, and with that I mean it's whole "government" or maffia as one can call it

Russia is nothing more then an aggressor that takes whatever it wants and it should be stopped at all costs!

Putler's reign of destruction should be over rather sooner than later

@yura I'm already pretty fluent in Spanish, but German is certainly a consideration.

@usul no, I'm pretty sure Duo is sticking to popular foreign languages.

@usul ooh, very tempting, but not very practical. I do have a soft spot for Altaic languages, so this isn't as crazy as it sounds.

@minoru if your niche programming language skills are getting rusty, is that a good or a bad thing?

Oh, okay. Any suggestions for a new language to learn in 2024?

@ljs @vbabka @krzk for the record, there is still a good chance things will go sideways with b4 send, but at this point it should work fairly reliably for the majority of workflows. It's only when someone tries to be more creative than we expect when things go boom.
