Valve has been moving slow and steady, but it seems like a master plan for Steam Machines could finally be coming into focus.

Honestly if Valve launched a new Steam Machine today, I’d buy it in an instant.

So the author of the blog post that the article is based off of actually interacted with some comments over on Hacker News and there were some pretty interesting revelations - such as his resume having Vibecoding as the first skill listed on it and living/looking for jobs on the East Coast with a website sounding like he's on the West Coast among other things.

I guess the media saw his blog post as a quick means of driving clicks through a clickbait headline. That's not to say that the market isn't hot trash at the moment, but I personally doubt Engineers are being replaced by AI.

Various messages in the ongoing “Canada Invasion” Signal thread include: • plans to invade Vancouver and Toronto simultaneously, “because they’re right next to each other” • a refusal to include Danielle Smith in the text chain due to the Alberta Premier “being too pick-me”

I’m howling 🤣🤣🤣

I'd be interested to see the performance jump on a Zen 5 (or Xeon) CPU given that Zen 4 does that "double pump" approach to AVX512.

I laughed way too hard at this. God damn the Beaverton is just on fire these days...

Honestly the Boycott had me going to my local bakery, butcher and farmers market. In some ways it’s surprisingly cheaper and in some ways it’s a little (and I mean little) bit more expensive but knowing that my money is going to my local community / farmers is 100,000% worth it. Haven’t had to go back since.

So I really feel you on that; nok er nok

Hell no - I stopped shopping at Loblaws since the boycott and I haven’t missed Shoppers Drug Mart one bit. I know that Shoppers is only one component of this health care empire but if it’s any indication, I won’t be needing anything else from Per Bank either. 🫡🫡🫡

Oh yeah sure mhm

"While Oracle and IBM have compatible Linux distributions, we have very different ideas about our responsibilities as open source stewards and about operating under the GPLv2," the Oracle pair said, taking the opportunity to encourage code contributions to Oracle Linux and to tease about potential job opportunities.

"Oracle has always made Oracle Linux binaries and source freely available to all. We do not have subscription agreements that interfere with a subscriber’s rights to redistribute Oracle Linux. On the other hand, IBM subscription agreements specify that you’re in breach if you use those subscription services to exercise your GPLv2 rights."

Here’s how I interpret it:

“Oh no, IBM cut off access to our source repository. Please contribute to our distro instead of RHEL because we’re had such a good track record with FOSS. Maybe you’ll even get a job out of it UwU”

To which I say: Oracle, FUCK YOU

I was thinking exactly this! At some point a long time ago, all of these centralized platforms were “cool” until “uncool” people started joining and sharing garbage content… now we’re in a bit of a renaissance as these platforms commit social suicide. The more intellectual individuals are both able and willing to jump ship to these “complex platforms”.

Will Grandma or crazy Uncle Bill ever join Mastodon on their own and understand federation? No, probably not. But that guy you went to University with who is now working as a Civil Engineer or Financial Advisor will probably figure it out and migrate when it gets bad enough.

Now I ask, who’s content would you rather see filling your feed? 🤣

I don’t understand - why would ISPs gang up on ActivityPub? How would it force larger instances to “crack”?

Are you saying that they would ramp up costs for utilizing the protocol specifically? Wouldn’t that go against Net Neutrality..?
