In 15 yeats from now, would you accept a job from people who never got a vaccine?

Like, William years?

Honestly. I expect someone without vaccines to be uneducated and sickly on the dole, as vaccines are a requirement for schooling without a medical exemption from an actual doctor.

And probably dead because, well, measles are a thing.

Not lately. Shit was on fire, yo (almost including the vineyard I laboured in the summers at picking grapes).

it's weird how so many linux memes could easily be turned into equally ill informed pro-MS memes

Like the one where Linus is getting telemetry from your machines and putting security at risk with essentially a C&C ping waiting for instructions.

Winmodems and other cheap junk comes to mind.

But, apart from stuff made just for windows, what've you got?

people aren’t risking death just to get to the area it’s in.

How will they get it from 'the area it's in' to the trebuchet? Is there a drone idea for the last-metre work?

A local tower development - one as high as 92 storeys - is also getting a community centre in the middle. The community centre is 8 storeys, with parking underneath THAT.

in short, put the parking underground. I came to say that. If they don't have a solution that involves parking safely out of the way, then it should fail at city hall.

When the local hospital built a new tower, I was surprised to see they used NONE of the 60-80 feet under-neath the new block for parking. And by parking, I mean 2000 10x20 partitioned but unsegregated underground storage areas that can be used for cars, hoarding of medical equipment in a pre-pandemic phase, or for emergency ward space later. So, everything you'd want to do with your parking lot, but also out of the elements and well-served by power, lighting and security.

Yes. It's called to "both-sides" the argument. And like arguing with a pig, it only possibly benefits one side.

How does it help creators? Without them there is no web…” After all, if a web browser sucked out all information from web pages without users needing to actually visit them, why would anyone bother making websites in the first place

This reminds me of when Mozilla was 0.9 and the web was just taking the baton from Gopher.

When Ben suggests there would be no web without monetization, he seems to forget WHEN HE WAS THERE before the sellout.

Crafty callback. Nice.

Are you planning to fix discrimination with more discrimination?

With two sets of laws related to hunting and fishing, how is the onlooker to know whether to report a crime?

OP can't spell canon?

I loved Solo but fanboys killed that.

Maybe it's time to start listing the enshittification phase of a project on Wikipedia or something.

would never enable issues in their Git...

That's a worrying sign for a project.

Did you clone their Git and start tracking issues there? ;-)

A web forum is far better in most cases

It's sad when a web forum is better than the tool you're considering. Bumps, aggressive garbage collection, no Resurrection, it's weird.

I'm old, I guess. I miss NNTP, mainly for the archived posts I could discuss with the authors for an updated take or revised solution or some clarification. And yes, I know there's a good webUI front-end for an NNTP server as a back-end. ;-)

I found IRC loses chat flow more easily, as actual chat gets lost in the stream of blabber.

I am intrigued to see how threaded conversations in slack et al work, but haven't been at a shop where slack was allowed as a tool due to data sovereignty and the CLOUD act.

But IRC was always something I approached reluctantly, and that's been 31 years now.

Yes, who.
