finally read "The Tyranny of Structurelessness", recommended by @bisimilarJames

https://www.jofreeman.com/joreen/tyranny.htm

in short
- every group has some structure
- if not acknowledged, it is informal
- if it is informal, it can't be held accountable
- acknowledged and publicly described structure is better, but not perfect & existing models can be exclusionary
- accountability is critical to accessibility
- allocate tasks according to abilities, allow people to learn, and rotate who does what

How many times per day do you type ssh -L or ssh -R?

WAT. WHY?

Season 4 was stupid good. Jodie Foster and Kali Reis made me dream about snow landscapes for days after. Just typing this now makes me want to watch it again.

There's no way Nicolas Cage and Antonio Banderas can reach even 5% of that. Right?

Right?

If two men had starred in season 4 and gotten those ratings, they would have been back in season 5. In 2025. With four times the salary.

The patriarchy makes me sick.

I dreamt someone gave me an 8TB NVMe drive as a gift.

Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted on
/dev/sd1n 92.5G 83.6G 4.2G 96% /home
/dev/sd1f 33.9G 30.9G 1.3G 96% /usr/local

Periodic reminder: 404 Media is the same Vice bros who broke their confidentiality agreement with Naomi Wu and outed her without her consent, putting her in danger to satisfy the prurient interests of the Gamergate crowd.

Don't be surprised when they run slopaganda pieces. These people are not our friends, even if they are doing some useful reporting too.

Okay fedi, this is an emergency. I need all of the photos of manuls, aka Pallas's cats, you have. All of them.

Look at this chonky fluff. Just look at it.

And then go find more and send them my way.

I need them.

Opdatering: Min mund kender alkoholisk Leffe Blonde og Brune ret godt, så jeg skulle lige abstrahere fra navnet på dåsen.

Jeg smagte begge ved siden af ovnristede kartofler og græskar - og hvidløgsdip.

Leffe Blonde 0,0%: Mild og frisk. Overraskende god. Kunne fint bruges til fancy velkomstdrink, etc.

Leffe Brune 0,0%: Meget mildere end normal, men tydelig eftersmag som var det en stout. Så vil jeg nok hellere have en Guinness.

OK humans, here's a question:

Can someone explain how I can get PS2 saves off of a memory card and onto a PC like I'm a newb who's never once opened up her console?

I found 22-year-old save games and I'd like to preserve them for posterity (and emulation), but be able to wipe clean the memory card so my family can play with it.

EDIT: pretty sure I solved it down the thread thanks to some awesome people, I'm using an ISO called FreeDVDBoot which let me boot into a file browser.

Nåja, i går i Fakta var der to dåser Leffe alkoholfri til kr. 6,- stykket, så dem skal vi da nok smage efter aftensmaden.

Jeg vender tilbage med en anmeldelse senere.

"Vil du kode, automatisere og holde IT'en kørende i ekspansion?"

Der søges en backend-, frontend-, mobil-udvikler samt it-supporter, sys og net-admin, projektleder og kommunikationsmedarbejder i én person.

Nogle arbejdskøbere er ikke OK.

Mollys dyrlæge er begyndt at bruge "AI" til journalføring og opsummering.

Så nu er jeg på udkig efter en ny dyrlæge.

Just overheard two HVAC techs talking about AI in an office building food court. Highlights include:

“It’s gonna be a lot of extra work to fix if we’re not absolutely sure this is right”
“And like, my AI is telling me something different to [other person]’s AI”
“You know why it’s like that? It’s because they want you to keep using it more”

Do you think you are neurodivergent?

This is not a question about diagnosis. If you think you are, the answer is yes.

As always, please boost.

Grmbl, der er altså nogle folk her som jeg engang har fulgt, men den gør jeg ikke længere. Har der været en bug der affølger folk?
