Im looking for the internet equivalent of screaming into the void when stress gets to great and you are about to pop.

This is not a story of the algorithm predicting what you like. It's showing if you expose a human to the same content over and over again. It can change their way of thinking in order to like the thing they are exposed to. Even more so if they don't know how it works and the person think everyone is into slime. I need to be into it too to fit in. It's very powerful if you want to manipulate populous. It's algorithm induced Stockholm Syndrome.

Hotel comes from the French word hôtel and that word is is defined as places providing care. Really the h in hotel would be hospitality but really that is not the case.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, might have breathed in too many soap fumes.

Token Ring sends the packets to every node by passing it from one node and if that node is not the recipient it passes it on to the next node.

Memos were created the day before with a list of recipients then it was passed around till everyone on the list had read it.

I feel responsible for this comic.

the moment McConnell filibuster his own bill. I knew the GOP had gone full clown show. It's one's thing to disagree on policy and be against the people but I stop taking them seriously. When their whole platform is political maneuvering amd being anti Democrat. It's almost like we're living in a key and Peele sketch.

i kind of hate this because the keys are not incorporeal. So while the ghost can go through the door with ease the keys can't even if the ghost could interact with the keys in the first place. 😜

i could be wrong but my understanding it's still 32 bit because of game compatability with older steam games and since the app itself is only a limited web browser and library. It doesn't need that much memory. So the compatibility wins out for as long as it can.

  1. Never realize it takes place over labor day weekend until today. It hits even harder knowing that.
  2. It kind of makes me sad not knowing how the original Bell got acess to the Net without jadzia's help. That makes me think he couldn't and It was a predestination paradox and the implication is humanity couldn't put us on a path to the world of star trek on our own and we needing star fleet to push the scales. Explains a lot for our timeline.
  3. 1995 Me: Getting the voices on the Net would fix things for sure. 2024 Me: There would be a misinformation campaign to drown out those voices and used by grifters to make a quick buck off the cause. Most would just swipe to the next youtube short/reelz/TikTok video.

Yeah i made myself sad

am I crazy or am i seeing a pattern with these guys. They go off the deep end after they have a divorce. It's like Mike and Giuliani normal lives then their wifes leave them and boom, first train to NuttJobVille.

Dennis Richie is a personal hero of mine and i go out of my way to buy a cake every September 9th to celebrate his contributions to the world. It's a real shame his passing was overshadowed at the time.

weirdly I'm still a Linux administrator but with way more fun services to maintain.

alternative headline "steam users have a ton of games they got from a humble bundle for super cheap and we didn't take that into account and used the msrp value of each game for this shocking headline."

Also some games don't count time on older games. i know I have games like half life 2 episode 1 that i have beaten that show I never played them since I played them before they started tracking time.

honestly the biggest problem with the media is. Linux represents the very thing corporate culture in those media empires just can't fathom. the idea of cooperation for the greater good that Linux represents and not being 100% profit motivated. They just don't get it and worse they see it as a threat. Microsoft can be a competitor to them but the idea of open source is a competitor to the whole system and that is a far greater threat to the people on top.

They said a 5 day work week was a pipe dream but strong unions and literal lives were lost to bring that about 100 years ago.

If we did it once we can do it again. Lasting change is slow but if we keep pushing change can happen. On a long enough timeline we win.
