It’s not that I can’t stay up all night, it’s that I have too much on to waste half a day sleeping

A malicious gene drive. Basically, use molecular tools to ensure that a gene is always passed down from a parent to its progeny, regardless of the other parent’s genetic makeup.

Many choices available: propagate resistance to a pesticide for mosquitos, guarantee Huntington’s disease in a family, or crash a population of beneficial species by reducing fertility, to name a few.

So the final thing tethering me to macOS is Apple Photos, which is really a fantastic program.

PhotoPrism looks like it’s improving quickly, but I was curious to know how it’s going today with regards to:

  • Search filters
    • Date
    • Place
    • Object/person recognition
    • Text recognition
  • Live Photo support
  • Ease of importing
  • Album support, including smart albums
  • Built-in touch ups
  • General stability

Wasn’t the point of IPv6 to remove the need for CGNAT?

SOLVED: it’s Antitrust! Thanks everyone!

It’s a tech related movie came out probably early 2000s.

Bits I remember:

  • A group of home brew coders watches a webinar of some large software company.
  • One of them gets hired by the company to work on a large project
  • The project is supposed to enable content delivery/streaming while overcoming bandwidth constraints, but they’re stuck in development
  • Main character is working on the project and is making headway but discovers something nefarious might be going on in the company
  • He checks around the place and realises a large mouse sculpture in the company campus playground is actually a hidden satellite
  • Using a computer in the children’s daycare room he uncovers the conspiracy
  • He manages to finish off the project, and the company thinks everything is fine
  • The tech company tests the system and it works perfectly broadcasting everywhere.
  • But the guy uses this test to present a montage of all the evidence of the conspiracy. Also uploads the project source code
  • Company CEO gets arrested or something, everyone lives happily ever after.

In my own case I’d put it down to Flatpak etc. finally resolving the software installation problem.

Installing most Linux OSes has been easy enough for decades, but a program not in your distro’s repos could be a nightmare to get working.

It boggles my mind that consumer protections in the US are so weak.

I’ll believe it when it ships. I’m genuinely optimistic that we can develop better batteries, but I’ve seen this story too many times before.

I don’t mind in-game ads printed on in-map billboards and stuff, but ads that interrupt gameplay? Fuck that. Especially if you’ve paid for the content.
