Me, when I start explaining DMARC, DKIM and how they work with mailing lists.

This is why you should always let us edit form fields by hand.

@tivasyk I found that this is common to many places -- it is easy to find dubbed movies or translated books, but it is really hard to find original works without pirating them. When I was studying Spanish, I was able to install the Spanish TV app on my device and set up payments, but it would refuse to play any content unless I was on VPN with an endpoint in Spain. It eventually stopped working entirely when they started blocking VPN IPs, so I had to cancel. :/

@atax1a I don't look forward to being introduced to Corporal Punishment, though.

@Ten also improves the bass frequency.

@atax1a and what about Major Outage?

I'd like to propose a new game, which I call "GPTGuessr:" you post a result and people have to guess the prompt that generated it.

I'll go first:

### The Book of Deuteronomy
#### Chapter 35: The Contest of the Cups

1. In the days of the prophets, when Israel wandered in the wilderness, an angel of the Lord descended to commune with the prophet Elias.

2. The Lord, seeing the weariness of His people, commanded a game to be played between His prophet and His messenger, to lighten their hearts.

3. The Lord instructed Elias to fill ten clay vessels with wine and arrange them on a table in two rows.

4. The angel Raphael stood opposite Elias, and the Lord said, “Cast small stones into the vessels of your opponent. Whosoever spills the wine shall drink, and the cup shall be removed.”

5. Elias cast a stone, striking true, and Raphael drank from the cup, removing it from the table.

6. The angel then cast a stone, also hitting a vessel, and Elias drank, removing the cup.

7. The game continued, each casting stones and drinking the wine as the Lord had ordained, and the people marveled at the wisdom of the Lord in this game.

8. As the game neared its end, with one vessel remaining on each side, Raphael cast his stone but missed.

9. Elias, with humility, cast his final stone and struck the last vessel of the angel, spilling the wine.

10. The angel praised Elias, saying, “The Lord is with thee, for thou hast played with righteousness.”

11. The people rejoiced, seeing that even in games, the Lord's hand is present, guiding His children.

12. And so it was written, that in the days of old, the Lord showed His people that joy and faith are united in His love, even in their games.

I should give a talk "Umpiring baseball games is just like being an open-source maintainer." In general, everyone appreciates you doing what you do and praises you for your committment, but make a smallest mistake or call a close play in the favour of the opposing team, and suddenly you're sh*t and who even let you do this, because clearly you have no idea what you're doing.

"#Ukraine rushes to create #AI -enabled #war #drones "

And don't fool yourself. Ukraine will create this. Yes, the Pandora's box will be opened. Despite all deep concerns and whining.

Because Ukraine has no choice. Deeply concerned western hippies afraid of "escalation" and deeply indoctrinated by the post-WWI idea "we must just stop fighting" left no other possibilities. Ukraine fights for its very existence against a genocidal country of morons and uses any viable opportunity for that.

Welcome to the future, boys.

@Ten Some of us only have a shoe string budget.

Very close to setting up a very small markov chain bot and redirecting all AI bots traffic to that, because why should all the damage only go one way.

@Aissen they clearly succeeded.

Subject: Brain sample request

Dear madam dear sir I would like to ask you can this helmet data be implanted into another brain if it is so I would like to invest in it and I would like a sample of it

Thank you sir

I guess I should buy my tickets to Vienna.

I am moving bots today. That's the kind of phrase my 7-year-old self would have though meant doing something awesome, but it's mostly making sure they don't send a bajillion unexpected emails or explode because they read the wrong venv.

@randahl @gtconway3 Home of the Felonious Chonk.

Underwhelming experience of the day -- trying my best to add Ansible Lightspeed IBM WatsonX integration to vscode and failing.

The number of hoops I had to jump through just to get lost in the IBM WatsonX service/model/API screens is just... wow.

Umpiring a 18U-A game in full plate gear in +32°C (heat index +37°C) -- done that, do not recommend.

@minoru In my defence, these CI jobs are already broken -- which is why docs.kernel.org and docs.kernel.org/next are stuck. But I will just do a one-off manual build to get them refreshed and leave the permanent fix to next week.
