Maybe the issue is that you’re too horizontal? Try doing a handstand first.

She was! But since a rather large portion of the US public seems to have 0-3 neurons, it’s not enough to be the obvious choice for everyone else.

Harris and her campaign knew this. They had polls clearly showing that she’s so bad at motivating voters that she’ll likely lose.

I’m not sure what you’re trying to say. Harris’s win obviously wasn’t a slam dunk, she lost.

IMO the bigger problem is that the “average normal politician” managed to be so bad that voters didn’t feel motivated to vote against Hitler.

This should have been a slam dunk - and there were literally a number of easy ways to motivate voters, like promising to stop the ongoing genocide the country is funding. But when given the choice between “letting Hitler win” and “stopping the genocide”, Harris and the entire DNC leadership chose to let Hitler win.

Isn’t that deeply fucked up?

Squirt of lemon

Is that why the fish get stuck? They can’t figure out how to pull the net over their legs?

Well yes, but have you also considered that line must go up?

Firstly, the GNOME Foundation’s financial woes long predate the rise in AI scrapers.

Sure. Does the Gitlab -> GitHub redirect also long predate the rise in AI scrapers?

I know of no such increase.

If you haven’t been staying up to date, maybe do that before dismissing explanations? The increase in scraping is such a massive issue that it’s been discussed to death again and again, and big parts of the open internet has changed.

You’re basically calling bullshit on a charity having increased fuel prices, because you’re not aware of any Iran conflict!

Ah, and why isn’t it reasonable to assume that the increase in hosting costs which is hitting everyone for the last few months, is also hitting GNOME? Why do you think they are exempt, when even big commercial platforms are struggling with the amount of traffic generated by AI scrapers?

Given that hosting costs have objectively increased across the board due to AI scraping, and the GNOME project just introduced these changes, it is obviously sensible to assume that GNOMEs hosting costs have increased too.

It’s not stupid insofar that it is an additional fingerprintable data point. But it’s obviously still much harder to fingerprint you if many users share the same value that you have, so it is invalid.

You’re approaching this with an everyday definition of “proposal”, but in the industry that term is overloaded with more specific meanings.

If you asked 100 random devs, I have no doubt that the majority would call a PR to be something much more concrete than a proposal.

Not righteous at all, bro :(

Oh yeah? And how am I supposed to dry them afterwards, smart guy? With handkerchiefs?!

Oh lawd he comin!!

And yet you’ve done a great job!

This was honestly obvious to anyone who read his many LKML gaffes. There’s no way to maintain a healthy psyche if you constantly butt heads with everyone in your field, while a portion of your “fan base” keeps fueling your non-compromising egocentric views.

Everyone needs a reality check every now and then.

Not the way House does!

House is in no way a realistic medical show

What a fucking piece of shit.

I have to admit, every time a story like this comes out, it makes me distrust any other large company all the more. When this whole thing first started, I already expected the publisher to be lying. Looks like the pattern holds true!
