Comment Re: When to send a dickpic (Score -1) 159

And still nothing you've said makes unsolicited exposure of your genitals to another person ok.

You're like a rapist practically ... you don't get to determine what's ok for other people. You don't get to expose yourself without consent.

You might argue that we should just not care about genitals and stop indoctrinated our kids to be so obsessed/scared of their bodies, and I'd be onboard with that. No one should be ashamed of their body and it being seem.

Unsolicited dick pics means you, and your community that think it's ok are the ones with an issue. The fact that your relationships start/revolve around the dick should give you a hint at the issues you have.

You are the type of person this law was created for and you don't even recognize that the rest of the public doesn't think it's ok, now your trying to justify it.

You're fucked up dude.

To be fair, most home lock improvements today while maybe a technical improvement still do nothing to improve security.

It's been easier to put a Skelton brick through a window or just kick the door in if your large enough than defeat the lock itself probably since the first home installation.

You do realize SpaceX is only where it is due to the last 60+ years of NASA learning and groundwork that got them to where they are today.

SpaceX didn't invent anything that wasn't already done. They also didn't do it with their own money - NASA paid SpaceX for research and rockets as well.

There is no SpaceX without NASA you ignorant Musk Cultist

Dinner menus are different than lunch because the portions are different sizes. Lunches are smaller than dinner meals typically, or have slight changes so they can be made quicker to get people in and out in an hour lunch break.

People simply don't typically at as large a meal at lunch, so smaller ones are sold.

The VHS tapes were hard coded immutable regurgitation of facts (hopefully true facts). You can not ask a VHS tape to explain something that wasn't clear on the video.

AI can respond to questions the student asks, can adapt to students over time, and pull in additional information it didn't have when it was recorded.

It won't be the same as a human, but I'm not sure that's a bad thing.

The same AI can teach millions of students simultaneously and LEARN from them so the next batch of students gets a revised method thar potentially improves the process.

This is EXACTLY the place LLMs can work very well. They don't have to create, they just have to feed data into the slow human hard drive.

Comment Point of service mesh ... (Score 0) 13

Please explain to me the actual point of these things. For the last 4-5 years I've had people swear to me I must have a service mesh so my services can talk to each other and authenticate. Every team here that uses Isto spends a year setting it up and getting it integrated ...

Then for the life of them they can not explain what advantage it provides, how it helps them or what effort it saves.

They do some how need to ask for additional training and people to administer it.

The whole concept is another retarded layer of uselessness designed and built for people who don't understand the problem in the first place, so add another useless middleman layers to it, yea, that'll make it more secure and reliable

Not agreeing with you doesn't make someone a homophobe or a racist. WTF is wrong with you? It has to be 100% your way, all the way, all the time, or the other person is unworthy of life and should be cast out and be unemployable.

Go look in the mirror you, you're exactly the same as a homophobe, you can't stand people that don't think like you do and have no tolerance for it.

Anyone who was so offended by what he did that they couldnt' work with him probably wasn't worth having on board anyway, they would be someone spending more time worrying about something that doesn't actually affect them than doing their job.

I assure you that everyone you worth with does something you despise and find completely disgusting, you just don't know what it is. If you can't cope with people are different and believe different things, and they should be cast out for disagreeing with YOUR personal opinion - you are the problem, not the solution.

Eich didn't bring this belief to the office and didn't treat employees differently because of it. THAT would be a reason to oust him. But he didn't. There is no evidence that he did, just someone that didn't like what he did outside of work and made it a work issue to further their own personal agenda. The exact reason that he was ousted ... was actually what was done to him. He was run out of his position because someone didn't like his personal opinion and beliefs.

Its okay for you to enforce your beliefs on others, but its not ok for them to just have their own belief and not force it on you.

YOU ARE THE PROBLEM.

Their loss in market share is due to anti-competitive practices by Google and Microsoft.

Meh, maybe its also that the browser fucking sucks for anyone who isn't into self abuse?

Netscape is incapable of making a good browser. They don't know how and its not what they want to do. They may have changed their name and a bunch of other silly bullshit when netscape collapsed and reformed as Mozilla, but the organization still has the exact same problem.

They spend too much time telling us why everyone else is wrong and how they are being treated unfairly, while at the same time building in BLINK and MARQUEE tags. No, I will not ever forgive them for BLINK and MARQUEE and especially not when they still have the same mentality they did in the late 90s. A bunch of devs with no architect or leadership all arguing over what they want to do next. Not because its good for the browser or its what people want, but mostly because its something this particular dev wants to do today. They all just go off and do whatever silly thing they think is amazing.

Firefox gained marketshare when the alternative was IE 6. Thats it. Not since the world moved on from IE6 has Firefox been worth mentioning. When grandma stopped letting you install firefox on her computer because someone showed her Chrome, Firefox's time was over. Both Safari and Edge are superior to Firefox for home users in almost every case where they don't have some fan boy techie screaming at them for being pathetic for using 'not firefox'.

Normal people dont want to spend all day playing with plugins, troubleshooting weird bugs, or figuring out solutions to problems that they just don't have with other browsers. And no, grandma doesn't give a flying fuck about your ad-block crusade, no one does really, its not a real problem anymore, its not the pop-up porn 90s anymore.

You firefox guys continue to live in this tiny little window of time where IE was truly a shitty browser and don't realize that we're not there anymore. The world has moved on, its only Firefox and its users who can't.

When did it transition from some project to 'advanced communication service'?

If I create an imessage clone in my home lab am I required to let anyone access it? WTF.

Apple runs the servers, they can do with them wtf they want to do with them.

Fuck you if you want your blue bubble without an iPhone, grow up. Buy an iPhone or stop having the stupid ass blue bubble envy. This is a stupid thing to even be talking about.

Private company runs private service and doesn't allow random users to access private service against rules that it made up IN ITS OWN HOUSE.

Please explain to me why the fuck apple has to 'open' this up to anyone?

FWIW - I use android, I get shitty videos pixelated from iPhone users (i.e. everyoen else in my family), I don't get a blue bubble, AND I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU CARE.

If you thought Beeper Mini was going to last, you were an idiot. If you paid for it, you are definitely an idiot.

Apple can let whoever they want into their house and changing that is like saying I can't control who uses the servers in my closet. Fuck you if you think Apple should be forced to let you onto there servers for ANY reason. Their house, their rules. If you don't like their rules, GO THE FUCK HOME - make your own if you think you're billy bad ass and want to be in control.
