And that's why you don't let them contact the Internet.

Managing IoT risk is an easy no brainer if people bother to try.

Need to remember the bastards to remember to piss on their graves.

Much as I understand your sentiment, I think it's important to remember the people who did horrible things like McCarthy, and use him as a warning to our younger generations who didn't see the problems they created.

You know, and the grave pissing.

So that's like, what, one 22nm fab?

They've been shipping them in every GPU for years.

These things are now managed by 10 to 40 custom RISC-V cores developed by Nvidia, depending on chip complexity. Nvidia started to replace its proprietary microcontrollers with RISC-V-based microcontroller cores in 2015, and by now, virtually all of its MCU cores are RISC-V-based, according to an Nvidia slide demonstrated at the RISC-V Summit.

Linkwarden and Wallabag are both excellent. Omnivore is up and coming, but might still be difficult to selfhost.

Great point! They do vary wildly by style and subject matter, while all being masterful IMHO. Incredible talent.

I mean, fair. All great books!

The Culture by Ian M. Banks. It's a little difficult to approach, but an incredible exploration of Sci-Fi, humanity, AI, and life in general. Unlike a lot of other great Sci-Fi (like The Expanse, which I also highly recommend) it's gritty, but overall The Culture is a hopeful and optimistic take on the progress of humanity and technology.

The best books are The Player of Games, Look to Windward, and Excession.

Depending on how you're feeling, I think you can skip The State of the Art, Matter, and Inversions, though they're worth an eventual read. They're just less connected to the main Culture story.

It's a series that truly changed me and my perspective on life.

I can promise you it isn't the engineers fucking up Boeing. It's the old macdonald-douglas management / exec team.

Which might make an even better comedy honestly.

I hate spiders, know thine enemy I guess.

Top one is an Australian huntsmen. Bottom one looks like an orb weaver of some kind.

Two spider pictures in the article, but neither depict a Fen Raft Spider. Shameful excuse for journalism.

Haha, wow that was crazy, right everyone? Geeze, why did we even do that thing we did? What was that even? So weird!

Anyway, everything is back to the way it was before! Maybe even better! You can all come back now from the various forks and open alternatives you've spent the last 18 months migrating to!
