More Ivalice content? Hell yeah.

And I'm always down for more turn based tactical RPG. Reminds me that I need to get back to Horizon's Gate on PC.

I think there are a lot of fields people are being encouraged to ignore because "it's totally going to be made obsolete by AI any day now". I'm sure some of them ultimately will be, but we still have people doing financial services despite so much of the calculations being handled entirely by software under the hood.

The people pushing this AI revolution concept are those who stand to make money off it, and those who can use it as an excuse for layoffs to save money in the short term before they jump to another company and avoid the consequences.

We've been "rapidly appeoaching the singularity" for quite a while now, and the current tools being marketed as "AI" don't actually have any "intelligence" to them. We are not going to magically turn what we have now into "AGI", it's simply not possible given our current models and techniques.

From someone in tech, at absolute best this is something that we might see strides in by the time we all die of old age, and that's being absurdly optimistic. The only people pushing the idea of a faster timeline are those with money to grift off the idea.

There are a bunch of "gimmick" alarm clocks that might help.

I had this one for a little while that sounded like R2D2 being kept alive while it's brain was being scrambled. If you didn't get to it in 10 seconds or so, it would roll off the table and start scurrying around the room. It was annoying enough that my parents returned it, after it was their idea in the first place.

There was also one where the alarm could only be turned off by a "key" that would take off like one of those pull cord helicopter blade toys when the alarm went off.

I think there's also things like big vibrating bass speakers you can strap to a bed frame to try and "shake" someone awake.

In the end what worked for me was just setting a ton of alarms. Like every 15-30 minutes starting an hour before I actually had to get moving.

Good luck.

Yep, and smaller chunks are less likely to leave soggy sections from the juice leaking out.

And if my Grandma had wheels she'd be a car.

Unfortunately you posted a shitty, arguably racist, excuse for moralistic grandstanding and now we all have to deal with it.

Complaining about people complaining about petty nonsense is, in and of itself, petty fucking nonsense and a waste of time. If you feel strongly enough to imagine it's in any way useful to try and call out this shit, get off your ass and go volunteer in your community instead.

Man, 8 Bit Theater. Talk about a blast from the past.

Hard work and practice, like all things worth doing in life. I find the paperbacks easier to work with myself.

That's not really how Lemmy works, it's more like Reddit, where you'd probably want to look at communities. But I've not seen anyone announce any new vulns here, people just post links to articles about them.

Searching for communities from the db0 instance should get you a bunch related to cybersecurity and infosec (only reccomending as some other instances have defederated from the .ml instance you're posting from/in). If I have some time later I'll edit this post with some.

EDIT: Posting from my phone, so apologies that these are direct links rather than in the "home instance agnostic" format

It's very simple. The US government maintains a list of sanctioned entities and companies. US citizens and businesses are not allowed to do business with these entities. Most of the removed maintainers either used their company email, or very publicly are employees of these sanctioned companies.

There's no investigation of connections or anything complicated going on here.

Also, if you think corporations becoming effective government is some Russia specific thing, I have a bridge to sell you.

He's practically always been like this. If anything he's notably softened with age.

From being able to work on Linux stuff without having their contributions reviewed by someone else (not from russia).

It's an important distinction many seem to miss.
