@ripplebrain This is why I bought a keyed gas cap this weekend lol

Nearly all gas doors hinge rearward, so if the filler is on the right side of your neighbor's car, insert a large flathead screwdriver in the middle of the right side of the door, and vice versa if the filler is on the left. Work it left and right with moderate force. If it doesn't pop open, move it progressively upwards or downwards and try again. Be patient, and be prepared for it to suddenly pop open. You'll want to make sure the screwdriver stays inserted or the door might bounce back and lock again.

@Polymarket They about to have a Digg moment

JUST IN: Reddit CEO says the company is considering requiring Face ID to ensure humanity in order to crack down on AI bots.

@christoaivalis I’d look at it like this: under the guise of intending to help the US, Canada modernizes and strengthens it’s military, with the true goal of being able to push back on any aggression from the US when they are inevitably humbled and pushed back into “their” hemisphere

Let's be clear: Carney is leaving the door open to Canada joining the USA/Israel war He can try and split hairs, but that's what's being left on the table. He's ramping up the military budget, not to protect us from Trump, but to potentially help Trump in his wars

Great framing of why the tentacles of age verification mechanisms creeping into OSS software are a serious problem.

@peterktodd As evidenced by the comments, this is fantastic framing and moving forward should be used as a counter-argument against this creeping scourge

Would systemd add a "totally optional" race field just because some white supremacist shithole country wanted it? Of course not: doing that would be sending a very clear message of racism. An age field is not harmless. It's a very strong political message of support.

@czechiaenjoyer @dadbod2100 @DoingFedTime This still leads to “unable to continue until you scan your ID” and anyone who enables this is on the wrong side of history

@dadbod2100 @eksosedron @DoingFedTime

Dylan, useful idiot with commit access, pushed age verification PRs to systemd, Ubuntu & Arch, got 2 Microslop employees to merge it, called it 'hilariously pointless' in the PR itself, then watched Lennart personally block the revert after community outrage. Unpaid compliance simp. Link below...

@AnitaAnandMP Who was it that struck the largest gas field in the gulf just before that? Can you eke out the truth?

Canada condemns in the strongest terms Iranian missile and drone attacks targeting energy facilities across the Gulf region, including the recent strike on Qatar’s Ras Laffan liquefied natural gas complex. Canada is equally appalled by the deliberate targeting of oil and gas infrastructure in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and other Gulf countries. We will continue to engage actively with Gulf partners and the international community in support of de-escalation.

@Boenau This, but with bricks, instead of red light cameras. Open carry for the thrower.

A different type of enforcement.

@mikelauofficial @chang_defi Conservatives only steal, never build

Canada is set for a nasty face ripping multi decade bull rally

@Waffl3x It’s the same shitwaffle doing it all over the place

You fucking what?!

@rektfencer It goes to fuck itself. It’s not real capital, it’s bloated, printer, out of thin air invented, slavery-inducing IOUs, and the sooner it all falls and crushes the ghouls that animate it, the better

EVERY SAFE HAVEN JUST FAILED BTC. GOLD. STOCKS. OIL. FIAT. THE WHOLE FINANCIAL SYSTEM IS BREAKING. WHERE DOES CAPITAL GO NOW?

@DblNdann @PrepperCanadian Yes: he pumps the lies to distract, then pulls the rug on one of the thousand schemes in his operation of scams. Pretty consistent behaviour.

@PrepperCanadian Are you familiar with Donald Trump?

The whole Kharg island thing is likely a diversion, they wouldnt telegraph it this much

@PrepperCanadian Yeah they’re gonna go in Lebanon

@alon_mizrahi Perfect timing for that kind of thing tbh

You know what I think? I think it is time countries of the region and the world announce to the US they are removing the siege from Cuba by hook or by crook, through assertive action or direct war, whatever the US chooses. Assemble a multinational fleet and go to Cuba. Mexico and Brazil should participate with their marine forces, and any other country in America that has Cuba at heart. Take the US to the test. If it wants to genocide Cuba, it will have to fight a rel war against a real military force. And ask Iran, China and Russia for help. I am betting the US will fold. People and nations need to step up and do more to free people from the suffocating grip of the US. Start sending them home from everywhere. Enough!

@IroncladDev Make this guy into a stark fucking warning for everyone else who would ever try to think about doing this shit

It would be a shame if everyone emailed `dylan @ dylanmtaylor [.] com` with their concerns about him opening age verification PRs Absolutely don't email dylan @ dylanmtaylor [.] com with your concerns about him opening age verification PRs

@PraxLemon @punished_daniel @melkuo Because it’s a SERVICE you broken-brained shitfart. It’s not supposed to MAKE money, despite whatever greedy billionaire cunts have been trying to program into your brain

@punished_daniel @melkuo The real question is how a service essentially has a government mandated monopoly can ever lose money. Meanwhile, we have several dozen in Canada

$3 billion reduction to indigenous services and it's only 11% 😳

Running agents locally is a dead end. The future of software development is hundreds of agents running at all times of the day — in response to bug alerts, emails, Slack messages, meetings, and because they were launched by other agents. The only sane way to support this is with cloud containers. Local agents hit a wall quickly: • No scale. You can only run as many agents (and copies of your app) as your hardware allows. • No isolation. Local agents share your filesystem, network, and credentials. One rogue agent can affect everything else. • No team visibility. Teammates can't see what your agents are doing, review their work, or interact with them. • No always-on capability. Agents can't respond to signals (alerts, messages, other agents) when your machine is off or asleep. Cloud agents solve all of these problems. Each agent runs in its own isolated container with its own environment, and they can run 24/7 without depending on any single machine. This year, every software company will have to make the transition from work happening on developer's local machines from 9am-6pm to work happening in the cloud 24/7 -- or get left behind by companies who do.

@mov_axbx @MAMware How do you approach non-greenfield projects?

They do some spec but not a ton, get distracted with stuff like assigning agents roles, generate code way too early (by my standards), etc. Basically everything you should not do if you're trying to mitigate the issues with LLMs. LOC is not the best measure but for lack of a better metric I have about 50k LOC and 20k lines of spec in my current project. I worked on it for 3 days before generating code to take advantage of first-pass accuracy (I find less aligned work when models are fixing code than generating fresh if you have a good spec), and work with a single agent to preserve context. It takes awhile, but the code quality avoids a bunch of productivity waste from fixing issues and I think it's faster overall. Stuff like that. I found my way of working through I guess going on 3 years of generating code with LLMs, working from first principles. A lot of the ways people try to use them are trying to map the way they're used to working onto AI and it's just different enough that it fails in ways they don't quite predict.

Trying to describe how I use codex and Claude to two friends who are SWEs and realizing it's massively different than the advice they've been following. It's like we are in two different worlds.

@hackerfantastic Bully and abuse anyone who implements this until they become a chilling cautionary tale to everyone else

Imagine a world where you must prove your age to compile code... It's coming with systemd.
