I got into baseball to get my mind off coding, so your ad algorithm is way off on this one.

I'd like to wish everyone a very merry delete that platform.

Edited: apparently the tweet about "weird" being a slur is a fake and has been debunked, so I am taking it down (see, even I have to check my sources sometimes!) However, I am leaving the post up and replacing the fake tweet with a real one where he calls the word "cis" a slur and whines about how he will punish people who use it.

@jarkko I've used both -- my favourite feature in foot is the ability to follow links with a keypress, but I'm using kitty because I liked the themes better. ;)

A reminder that everything being shared online about the Southport attacker is not real, and is being reshared by media outlets in Russia to peddle anti-migrant fears (and by IT people on LinkedIn).

The person also isn’t called Ali Al-Shakati, and did not arrive by boat.

In case any journalists are interested in a real story, this censorship of the Harris dudes is certainly it. In fact, the entire reason the richest man in the world bought the biggest social network is to assert improper influence on the upcoming election, and he is doing it. Over and over again. But you can't write about it because you are dependent on the social network he controls. Do you see the problem here? Isn't this a really good story? Except you can't write about it. 😳

@major it's the same in European vs Québec French -- nobody calls them cacahuètes here (though it will be understood), but arachides.

@gromit @corbet I've seen both -- big corps will stick themselves into the user agent, but I see plenty of what is obviously bot traffic that uses generic browser strings, with both outdated and recent release versions in them.

The amount of LWN traffic that is just AI bots downloading the same stuff over and over again is staggering; it's increasingly hard to see any sort of human signal in there at all. Something is going to give here at some point...

@corbet 100% agreed -- I estimate upwards of 95% of all traffic to kernel.org services are greedy llm bots who operate in complete disregard of robots.txt.

Hey, if you put a private file onto a USB drive, then delete it, and give that USB drive to someone else, they can still read that file's contents if they know the inode where it was stored.

Obligatory reposting of the same blog article I wrote in 2022: "Cross-fork object sharing in git is not a bug."
