Thanks for noticing that. I certainly missed the ‘=1’ bit.

Debian testing, then upgrade it as they make major releases. I have yet to have a single Debian upgrade go wrong on Desktop or Server. It is basically magic.

Assuming that:

• your Linux Laptop uses wlan0 for its wireless connection and your home network uses 192.168.1.x for IP space.

On the Linux laptop:

• as root or with sudo – enable IP forwarding and load the change with sysctl -p.

sudo sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 ## updated edit thanks to folks pointing out my typo.
sudo sysctl -p

• if you have ufw installed and running – setup a NAT masquerading rule for any hosts forwarding IPv4 traffic to it.
  add this line to /etc/ufw/before.rules file right after the “*nat” line

:POSTROUTING ACCEPT [0:0]

-A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.1.1/24 -o wlan0 -j MASQUERADE

On the mac:

• set your IP address manually to be on the same LAN as the Linux laptop, but for the gateway address… point that at the IP for the Linux Laptop.

Endorphins, better blood oxygen capacity, much better sleep, eventually better stamina in everyday life … all very tangible benefits of daily exercise. You don’t need a gym or equipment either. Running, walking, burpees, crunches, push-ups, maybe a pull-up bar can take you pretty far on their own.

None of this will directly fix all of your problems but it can better equip you to deal with stuff. A diet that is mostly fruits and veggies helps a ton too but that’s a whole other discussion.

This video is penguin/click bait and not a meme. Maybe I missed the joke.

Check your passkeys. You might still have one in the OS credential manager.

Codeberg does actively try to prevent bot scraping.

Is it easier to secure, monitor fewer, bigger reactors or thousands of* small ones? Accidents are still going to happen and I know which scenario makes more sense to me. Especially in light of Trump’s recent push to deregulate nuclear energy, kill the EPA, and pretty much any other kind of sensible management efforts of technology that is great until something goes wrong then it quickly becomes a multi-generational clusterfuck.

Solar, batteries and long-range transmission infrastructure just makes too much sense I guess.

The focus appears to be entirely on tariffs which have solely been a tool for Trump to extort various countries, they don’t seem to really stick around or stay very high for very long.

I have not heard the Feds say a word about the AI-bubble’s affects on the economy. Ignoring the great sucking effect that it has had on private and public capital as a whole, the RAM/storage price situation is going to show up in pretty much everything that needs a computer and I don’t see anyone at the Fed factoring that in. It will(and already has) hit everything from consumer PC/gaming/TV/SmartPhones but also Cloud providers, Automotive, Infrastructure technology. Remember that it is not just those who want to replace or upgrade old tech(these could wait in theory) but also applies to repairs for things that can’t wait.

If you cut rates now or too soon, asset(house) prices will sky rocket due to private capital (smart money) fleeing the AI-bubble and rushing into housing. Then you will have a situation that is somehow worse than the present.

I don’t really think that rate cuts will do anything to address AI-layoffs, offshoring of hundreds of thousands of good paying tech jobs and manufacturing jobs, or labor jobs that immigrants(illegal and ‘legal’ ones) have taken from the natives. We need sweeping policy reform to bring all of that work back. It will push wages up(and hopefully margins down) and least begin the process of undoing decades of wage dilution and price distortions.

… Says the person whose entire net worth is entirely determined by how much AI bullshit and myth he can spread around amongst the rubes… I was recently sent this absolute fever dream which itself was poorly generated by AI for maximum irony.

If you have ever spent any significant amount of time in Louisiana you’d understand why they might be running out of room in the current amount of prisons.

If you haven’t, sort by homicide.

This is like that part in Don’t look up when the Jennifer Lawrence’s character tells her BF to wait 6 months before she meets his mother.

Prosody XMPP + Pidgin/(Monal|Xabber) has always worked for me. It is not hard to setup or manage, has E2E encryption too.

Well … are you a fish? If so, no… if not, yes.

I sincerly hope that this is a troll post because if not, well. Sigh.
