I always thought it was a bit silly, if not apt? That we all thought he looked like a walrus but the top picture here changed that.

You cannot convince me that walrus is NOT Jamie Hyneman.

This “it’ll be good for us” optimistic bullshit often doesn’t correctly conceptualize what “rock bottom” looks like for an entire country

Many selfhosters are also homelabbers

And then the hordes of sycophant DinkDonkers repeat their detritus over every comment thread they can

The Gulp

Quick, now lean a firewall with a good IDS

Dunno man, there was a time I didn’t know who Sam Altman was, and he still did those things.

EDIT: I suppose an allegedly is in order at this point

Brave? The browser that hides ads and substitutes their own? The one that keeps you private from Google AdSense so they can sell your data themselves? The one that keeps their Chromium build lean, so that you don’t notice the crypto miner running along side of it?

The fucking PayPal Honey of browsers? When the fuck did they ever look good? They’re like the “Banzai Buddy” of the HTML5 era

Good news, the connection is about to stop buffering.

All of these are reasons why Google Glass failed. No one wants some robot scanning everyone’s face and reporting their location to some corporation’s database in real time so that the NSA can extract that data and give it to ICE, for example.

AR seems cool but it’s a fucking dystopian nightmare.

A couple of things irk me (on iOS):

• Shaking the phone if I’ve opened a text editor brings up the “undo typing” dialog, even if I’m on the main feed or in a comments section
• sometimes, the app freezes and restarts (almost like an out of memory) and I think it’s related to sometimes when I swipe away from a video or browser view, I can still hear audio from a media player for a second. Are views being left open on the background for a long time, possibly indefinitely?

Other than that, great app! Loving as an Apollo replacement.
