but what if you eat capitalism itself would that be ethical consumption

Maybe some day I can express concerns about the culture of (programming) language bashing and not be immediately attacked for it. I guess today is not that day.

job postings be like 

@julialuna@chaos.social And then complain about "employee shortages"

@maia Because business books are primarily aimed at people who think themselves much more rational than they actually are

@ajroach42 If you don't mind a bit of yarrr, Library Genesis has a pretty big collection of comics

mh~ 

@f0x and other greatest works of basically every ADHDer

@f0x "Surely if I get these final tasks done, I'll be able to wind down from my burnout"

@Paradox @schratze Though I gotta hand it to them, it's impressive how they managed to get both a penis *and* a swastika in there at the same time

FYI, someone on birdsite is organizing a protest at Cloudflare's HQ in SF to get them to drop KF: twitter.com/keffals/status/156

Keep fascists out of your spaces and their memes out of your mind. Normalization is their weapon of choice, but it requires them to wait for *you* to start repeating or laughing at *their* jokes.

:anarchy:

@tindall@cybre.space While an interesting change, the way the article is written really confuses me - io_uring is a Linux-specific thing to address Linux-specific problems, and surely the underlying concepts behind io_uring have been attempted before in other microkernels? But the article frames it as if Linux is leading the way in research here somehow...

printer rant, cursing 

@silvermoon82@tech.lgbt @00Ni So interestingly it seems like there's been a bit of a resurgence lately of laser printers aimed at consumers but still with roughly the same reliability (especially from companies like Samsung) - which has created the curious situation where a lot of home printing is moving back from color to monochrome :p

@silvermoon82@tech.lgbt @00Ni FWIW, laser printers seem to fare *way* better on both reliability, lifespan, and consumable cost, even the cheapo tiny monochrome ones. They tend to cost more than inkjets in purchase price, though.

(I have one of the more expensive options to desperately try and buy my way out of printer misery, a Brother DCP-L8410CDW, and to my surprise it's been *basically* trouble-free since!)

printer rant, cursing 

printer and everything around them make me irrationally mad. why the fuck do you only want ink from your company, when other ink works, too? why does my ink cartridge needs a chip? why do all these different companies need different methods to put fucking ink in their shitty ink spitters? i know the answer is capitalism, but i am still irrationally mad and want to do unspekable things to the designers of these abominations.
