@becomingwisest I'm not out to be rude. I just forwarded it up the chain.

@triskelion @dangoodin Dude, I don't know what I did to make you hostile to me. I wasn't there when any promises were made by previous k.org admins and I've certainly made transparency the core principle of our work. /o\

@wyatt8740 When reading "Equal Rites," do you get the vibe that JK Rowling also read that book and went "huh, an outcast applying for a wizarding school, that's a pretty neat plot"?

Heh, this dude emailed the helpdesk address at 4:40PM my time asking for a comment on a sensitive matter, and gave me a 2-hour turnaround to respond.

I've got to admit that ChatGPT 4o does a lot better at complex baseball scenarios than its predecessors. It still gives me invalid answers every now and again, but now they aren't nearly as frequent.

Just as a synth would do.

That said, "EatKernel" could totally be a legit fuzzing tool.

I'd like to know how someone can manage to find the helpdesk address on the kernel.org site, and yet not figure out that, you know, maybe it's not the site for the restaurant chain launched by the former Chipotle Mexican Grill CEO.

It has been a long time coming, but I've made it official:

"Daniel no longer answers questions on stackoverflow. Use a dedicated public curl forum for accurate and timely answers about anything . "

(yes, speaking about myself in 3rd person)

If instead of a trifecta of achievements you only manage to reach a single one, that's still a solid monofectum.

I'm so sorry if you're waiting on me! I am trying to get things down to something reasonable, but people just keep emailing me back and ruining my perfectly good downward trends. :)

Me: "please follow these steps to make it work"
Person: "but what if I don't and try to do it my own way?"
...(shortly after)...
Person: "help, I've tried everything and it's not working"

The big problem with Tesla that this article misses completely is that many of Tesla's most enthusiastic customers (like I once was) no longer want to support a person who is actively promoting hateful conspiracy theories and providing nazis and Russians with a platform to disrupt the upcoming U.S. election.

@Logical_Error @postmarketOS Nah, this is too much work and the battery life on it is no good for more than just occasional use. I'll trade it in and hopefully it finds a new life.

Just found out that my "Pixel 5a" actually isn't so much "5a", just "Pixel 5" -- which explains the conspicuous absence of security updates since last November.

I want all my phones to display "this device is no longer receiving security updates," whenever this happens in the future, thank you.

/me throws more money at Google for a Pixel 8, which just happens to be on sale right now.
