They need to announce copilot for clearing off and taking copilot with them.

It’s interesting to see them still kissing Apple backside when Gruber eviscerated Apple and he’s usually very uncritical.

I don’t know that Cook needs to go, but Apple have a big reputation and this has harmed them. They need to fix that somehow.

It must be bad if Gruber is criticising Apple.

What’s stopping the downloaded script from wiping my home directory? If you use this, how can you feel comfortable?

You’re not wrong, but there’s an element of trust in anything like this and it’s all about your comfort level. How can you truly trust any code you didn’t write and complie yourself. Actually, how do you trust the compiler.

And let’s be honest, even if you trust my code implicitly (Hey, I’m a bofh, what could go wrong?) then that simply means that you’re trusting me not to do anything malicious to your system.

Even if your trust is well-placed in that regard, I don’t need to be malicious to wipe your system or introduce a configuation error that makes you vulnerable to others, it’s perfectly possible to do all that by just being incompetent. Or even being a normally competent person who was just having a bad day while writing the script you’re running now. Ooops.

I wonder if the comparisons are just lazy journalism. Saying “it’s like that” has to be much less effort than properly summarising the content.

The comparison I’d reach for is STALKER tbh but I’m trying to let it be its own thing in my mind. Because mumbles I’m looking forward to trying it as I really like fallout…

We never should have left of course but right now I don’t think we’re ready yet to be an EU member in good standing. Not while people are listening to fuherage here, not while right-wing extremism is on the rise elsewhere in Europe.

Digest the decadent

It’s really not to my tastes if I’m being honest, but for all that I think the decor works, it’s got a coherent feel and hangs together.
