I never thought I'd die fighting side by side with an AI.

XrO is a similar project that has already gained some traction... but does anyone know why these projects insist on forking/extending C, when annotations could simply be contained in comments (particularly in XrO's case)?

... richer real-time chat platforms with more features (like discussion history, search, offline messaging, etc).

I will let those features know of their absence, the next time I see them (and many, many more) with one or two keystrokes in WeeChat or Irssi.

But hey, at least it's not Discord.

Note to self: Do not use iwantmyname for DNS registrations.

Dear Mr Perens,

I recognize the problem you describe as real. Thank you for attempting to address it.

You mention a number of contribution avenues to the greater ecosystem of free software—from documentation to lobbying to actual programming. How will your proposed system ensure that such varied contributions are compensated fairly?

As-is, free software is largely a do-ocracy, with only moderate potential for deception. Adding bureaucracy to the equation threatens to upset this natural order.

Thank you and best of luck.

Openbox immediately sprang to mind after reading the article summary, as it contrasts Gnome starkly. I love Openbox. May it never have an Executive Director or count conferences among its “key operations”.

I agree with all points, except for Booch's assertions regarding Web3: If the pile of feces were indeed flaming, there would be an output of energy in the form of warmth etc. The Web3 that I have seen, however, consolidates and consumes more than it creates.

I hereby submit that Web3 is a black hole of feces.

Google operating a VPN is like a spider operating a hotel for flies.

Yes, this is a web browser that runs in a terminal. No, it does not seem to be keyboard-driven (nor even text-based for the most part). For the latter, I recommend w3m:

For the former, I recommend just running Firefox, Chromium, etc. That said, Carbonyl might be useful in at least one, specific scenario: executing on a remote machine web downloads that are too large for local machines and trapped behind JavaScript barriers (e.g. CAPTCHA) but aren't supported by a plugin of yt-dlp (or youtube-dl, headless JDownloader, etc).

Finally, from Carbonyl's README (regarding the build process):

It requires around 100 GB of disk space.

Prosecutors note that if Bobbitt "fails to adhere to the tightly-structured regimen of treatment and recovery services, which includes frequent testing for drug use, they chop his dick off."

"We are banning legal content."
"So it's no longer legal?"
"No, it's still legal."
"... so it's OK to have it, then?"
"No, having it is banned."
"So it's illegal?"
"No, it's perfectly legal. Just banned."

Next up on the agenda: seven red lines and a ball that must be fetched...

IRC has supported emojis since the very day they were added to Unicode.

Given that we humans seem to be stuck with classical chess, and masters of classical chess seem stuck on quibbling about score nuances, perhaps we can use computers to mathematically prove an optimally fair scoring system--so the stupid humans can get back to playing games.
