  • A good friend's grandma was missing her friends and I suggested getting her online so that she could meet other people while gaming, but the idea was rejected as she had enough trouble fighting out WhatsApp. Her daughters had to call her on Google Messenger until it was killed.

    She finally died of cancer but was very happy while doing it because of the relief. No more pain, no more loneliness. I wish we could introduce gaming to more seniors. It might make their life more interesting. Then could even have a Gray League and stream themselves to other aging people.

    I bet that if the people born between after 1980 get to retire, gaming will be pretty normal. Unless social media has eaten away at their brains too much. Or something greater comes along like brain to computer interfaces.

  • Windows realised that they hadn't locked in their users enough and hadn't built an ecosystem difficult enough to exit like the ego phone makers. My only hope is that they will fuck that up enough with their AI driven coding practices and agentic OS to drive more people to Linux.

  • I won't ever write zig but respect to the maintainers for moving to codeberg and sticking to their principles. If the nixos foundation had any, they would move too (but I guess fighting in the forums is more fun than moving).

  • Bluesky is not encrypted and pretty centralised. I imagine they dont allow access via TOR, so most likely you can't use it anonymously. I bet however that there are mastodon instances that dont have a problem with TOR or VPN access.

  • I don't think we will ever be able to prove nor disprove intelligent design. We simply do know how much we don't know and it is therefore impossible to rule out or confirm that. It also creates the paradox of if a creator existed, they'd have to exist in something which then begs the question whether they have a creator, which could easily enter infinite recursion.

    As for the number of parameters that make habitable universes possible, we think to have found 26 but who knows how many actually exist. He pointed out the electric dipole moment of a neutron having no bearing on habitability, but how can he know that to be true 100%? It's like how we believed our DNA was 98% junk only to find out it does have a function.

    I like the thought experiments but they stay just that, thought experiments - at least until they can be tested.

  • In this thread: people who believe the myth of the safe C programmer. The one who has memorized the spec and is able to hold endless context in their brain while writing code. They themselves are C compilers.
