This is tomfoolery of the worst calibre.

I'd be extremely surprised if WordPress wasn't forked after this.

It's particularly ironic given WordPress's initial success when Movable Type burned all of its bridges and goodwill.

There already is a fork. https://classicpress.net/

It was started when Mullenweg pushed Gutenberg down everyone's throats.

Comment You can't regulate it (Score 4, Insightful) 113

AI, or what passes for AI these days (ie. not AI), can not be regulated. The cat is out of the bag. This isn't like nuclear regulation where it can be physically controlled (and even that doesn't work; eg. North Korea). You're not going to stop some mad scientist in the basement from creating something harmful.

Instead of regulation what needs to be worked on is technologies to defend against AI threats.

Windows 2000 was the best ever made. It is the last true version of Windows NT. NT kept getting better with every release. Each was faster, smaller, more stable. It was going places, the legacy of OS/2.

Then they merged all the Windows 95/ME crap to make XP. Windows never recovered from that blunder.

Sure I agree it's not most. But if you search for apple tv keeps asking for password you see lots of people with the same issue.

I suspect it's to do with two factor, I've refused to turn it on because I don't have any other apple devices and they don't support standard 2 factor apps.

And that 'solution' will last for how long? My apple tv 4k box has been asking me for my password pretty much every single freakin' day for the last year. Which is really frickin' frustrating using the apple remote if you have any sort of decent password. And multiple times it's locked my account and forced me to to do a password reset in a browser. Finally just chucked it in the trash last month and bought a chromecast for christmas. Not a perfect device, but it remembers my password at least.

Comment High-end? Only one choice (Score 5, Informative) 196

The absolute best? There is only one choice:

GrapheneOS on a Pixel phone.

There are cheaper phone alternatives like LineageOS on supported Androids but it doesn't have the functionality of Graphene.

CalyxOS is similar to but not as good as Graphene but maybe worth a try. Also Pixel-only.

Yup. When they're tired of months of winter every frickin' year, and their knees and backs hurt all the time, and hip surgery is on the horizon, they'll start looking to move to the exact same kinds of places.

This is why the 'ok boomer' thing is so hilarious. Pretty much every single person who uses it is going to end up exactly as what they're mocking.

Not only that but people like me that ride motorcycles and have wind damage to ears. Or in the 90's I used to be in the SPL race and had sound systems that would break windows. Or people like me that suffer from trichotillomania and have hearing loss from sticking/twirling hairs in the ear and pounding the eardrum.

I'm nearly 50 so in the age group.
