Chaotic Entropy

I barely know how to code, but I think I could write a lot of lines of code too. They would be incredibly inefficient and poorly written though.

Imagine if you asked your dev to explain their code and their response was “dunno mate, I di’n’t write it”.

Does their app need to be 250k lines? Who knows… definitely not them.

Early 20s, from his LinkedIn, teen-turned-CEO.

Lauri is a recent teenager-turned-CEO himself… and that “intern” is basically responsible for building Lauri’s entire codebase. The whole service his “company” offers is what that teen bodged together in a month.

One of a bajillion bugs.

I wouldn’t really care if Steam decided to crack down on porn games, its their store. Payment processors being the ones to force Valve’s hands simply doesn’t sit right.

It’s fun how when you could really most use a reliable distraction you start to not be able to find joy in things you used to.

Funny how that happens when people don’t have any money.

Just don’t wait to ask Grok what it thinks “Right Think” is, as Musk plans for it to rewrite human knowledge and understanding with a new lens. :')

Ideologically unaligned visitors need not apply. Got to keep America pure, without the pesky freedom of subversive thought.

I guess all of this comes under the general auspices of wiping their arses with International Law, whilst demanding adherence from others, and telling everyone to thank them for doing it.

What has the middle east ever seen the US do besides:

• Buy their oil, at the point of a sword
• Fund extremists to overthrow their governments, to give them more favourable oil terms
• Bomb their and their neighbours’ civilian populations/infrastructure with relative impunity
• Hand weapons to nations committing wars and genocides against them and their neighbours
• Provide backing to extremist friendly regimes, artificially propping up monarchies and dictators
• Invade, destabilise, and then bail on them and their neighbours, creating horrific refugee crises
• Constantly threaten to turn them and their neighbours “to glass” if they get uppity
• Abandon their regional partners/interpreters to the whims of the forces they were previously fighting against

I mean, the “To Note” section includes information about their worse practices. The whole infographic is such a nonsense mishmash.

Naspers is a South African multinational internet, technology and multimedia holding company headquartered in Cape Town… did you mean Napster…? Did you generate this with AI or something?

Why would the largest music streaming service in the world be in the “other” category and not the “Big Tech Incumbents”.

I guess I am pretty far from saturating my WiFi in any way, the removal of cables with little to no impact on connectivity was far more of a priority for me. I have never noticed a WiFi related outage or performance loss.

I should have rebuilt an old coffee maker in to a Pi Hole instead. I’m such a rube.

I have never felt the need to have a wired connection for my DNS/DHCP, since such a trivial amount of data exchanges hands. The quality of the wired connection if it had one would similarly have negligible impact, surely.

I mean, a lot of things would work, I could power it all with potato batteries if I had enough. The Pi Zero 2 W only cost ~£15 anyway.

Yeah… I’m not going to stick a clunky old laptop on top of my bookshelf and have it run 24/7 as my PiHole. My Pi Zero 2 W is far more appropriate.
