🏘️ "In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply.* The reason: The country applies the „Housing First“ concept. Those affected by homelessness receive a small apartment and counselling – without any preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected thus make their way back into a stable life. And: All this is cheaper than accepting homelessness."

From Smedly Butler's "I Was a Gangster Fir Capitalism" speech 90 years ago, to the 2 gulf wars and etc for oil, to silicon valley killing Vine and then petitioning the US gov to block it's replacement in Tiktok they don't control, it's so frustrating to see the American experiment is just one of being a country for companies and capitalism, and how the government will always serve companies whims first always working to pacify what of the rest of the world it can for them,

One thing about bullies, is they desire to control the narrative.

When squid/transistor-cafe decided I was a bad person years back, they shut down anyone who said otherwise, and intentionally reached out to friends to spread false rumors.

Its up to you to call out people who behave like this. Otherwise they win simply by signal to noise ratio.

사주팔자/명리학/토정비결 이런것은 언어모델에게 물어보시면 안되는데 애시당초 인터넷에 있는 거의 대다수 데이터가 엉망진창이고 너무나도 일관성이 없어서... 물어보시면 안됩니다 정말 아무말하는것을 볼수 있음 ㅎㅎ 사주팔자의 많은 원문 자료는 아마도 중국쪽에서 나온 서적이 많겠지만 문화혁명때 거의 대다수가 날라간것 같고요 어떻게 그래도 남은 자료로 힘들게 배워서 어떻게 잘 아시게 된 분들은 경험/지식을 공유하지 않으므로 믿을수 있는 자료가 거의 없습니다 (..)

This isn’t targeted at anyone in specific - I have had the conversation like 6 times this week,
Americans -
You need a work visa to work in another country, -even remote- unless they allow digital nomad
You can’t just go to most countries on a tourist visa and start looking for a visa sponsor & job

Am Ende wird alles wieder Mycel...oder so...und wegen des gestrigen späten Totensonntagskonzerts hat sich der von sunday auf monday verschoben. Nun aber zum Thema: Der Fruchtkörper zum heutigen heißt Shiitake. Zusammen mit Topinambur, Aubergine und Paprika ergibt das eine erdige Pilzpfanne, die dank Sojasauce und den Basiszutaten als umami-esk gelten darf.


Auf einem Küchenbrett liegen am linken Rand 2 Zwiebeln, darüber eine rote Paprika, rechts daneben Topinamburknollen, darunter 2 Knaublauchzehen, rechts daneben eine Aubergine und darüber eine Tüte mit Shiitake. In einer Pfanne auf der linken Seite des Herds braten Shiitake, Aubergine, Paprika sowie Ziebel und Knoblauch in Olivenöl. Rechts daneben liegt in einer kleinen Schale bereits gebraten und in Scheiben geschnitten Topinambur - ebenfalls mit Zwiebel und Knoblauch.Alle Zutaten (Shiitake, Topinambur, Aubergine und Paprika sowie an Gewürzen Sojasauce, Kukuma, Pfeffer, Paprika, Thymian und Majoran) befinden sich vermischt und fertig gebraten in einer Pfanne.

New, by me: Is your Android TV streaming box part of a botnet?

"On the surface, the Superbox media streaming devices for sale at retailers like BestBuy and Walmart may seem like a steal: They offer unlimited access to more than 2,200 pay-per-view and streaming services like Netflix, ESPN and Hulu, all for a one-time fee of around $400. But security experts warn these TV boxes require intrusive software that forces the user’s network to relay Internet traffic for others, traffic that is often tied to cybercrime activity such as advertising fraud and account takeovers."

The story looks closely at what Superbox is, how it operates, and what it appears to do on the sly. Spoiler: A Censys researcher found that installing the apps that allow these channels to stream enrolls the user's IP in a residential proxy service, and that these devices include powerful network discovery and remote access tools like Tcpdump and Netcat.

Overall, the Superbox is just one brand in an ocean of no-name Android-based TV boxes that are widely available and that either come pre-infected with malware or require malicious apps to use.

A screenshot of the Walmart website shows 397 results for Superbox devices. They look like small wireless routers, include a remote, and come in bright metallic blue or black.

“Americans are holding onto devices longer than ever and it’s costing the economy”

We need to consume.

The average American now holds onto their smartphone for 29 months, according to a recent survey by Reviews.org, and that cycle is getting longer. The average was around 22 months in 2016.

While squeezing as much life out of your device as p

I'd also like to remind everyone that just a couple months back Windows 11 just killed people's SSDs, this wasn't resolved for WEEKS.

really isn't perfect, but at this point I'd say the things it's not perfect at are far less bad than what Windows isn't perfect at.

I think I'm finally coming around to understanding what librarians actually do, and why people I occasionally see people arguing for hiring librarians at companies.

It's actually really simple: any formally organized group of people produces and consumes a lot of information. The job of a librarian is to organize and maintain that information.
