↳ In-reply-to » Gentoo bands use of “AI” tools Gentoo, the venerable Linux distribution which in my headcanon I describe as ‘classy’, has banned any use of “AI”. A proposal by Gentoo Council member Michał Górny from February of this year banning it use has been unanimously accepted by the Gentoo Council.

↳ In-reply-to » @lyse Oh my god, that sounds just as awful. Yes, that really makes you want to quit. Such a waste of time and energy. It’s really dangerous for one’s mental health as well, burnout is lurking just around the corner.

@mckinley@twtxt.net I’m not sure to be honest I think it’s just a straight up duplicate post.

↳ In-reply-to » @lyse it seems you don’t have a decent UPS with surge protection. Invest in one! We have one everywhere there is a constantly-used valuable appliance in the house, including refrigerator.

Oh wow that’s a lot of UPS(es) 🤣

↳ In-reply-to » I am supposed to come to office today, but I have caught the same cold bug wife has had for the last three days, so I am staying remote to spare cube-mates. Nose stuck, dripping, and a general slight sense of malaise is what I am feeling right now.

Thank you very much, everyone!

↳ In-reply-to » I have months of intense security compliance theater ahead of me and wish for a quick and painless death.
