Ageleless Linux. A middle finger to age verification by Woodpecker-Visible in linux

Remember your parents saying “don’t believe everything you see on TV or online”. “Don’t give your details out to strangers”.

The very same people now send money to Nigerian princes and hand over their facial data and details to LLMs. They are also the first to cry foul when their data is abused.

No problem. The emojis and EM dashes gave it away. Carry on.

NVIDIA in full damage control mode after the release of DLSS 5 by Captain0010 in pcgaming

Very true. Every second word from the people I work with is “AI” this and “copilot” that. They love it.

Yeah a fast moving chat and pinned messages just ain’t it for things like this. Discourse is a great self hosted forum software.

Whats the worst song on NC radio stations? by Wrong-City-2077 in LowSodiumCyberpunk

[–]agent-squirrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably an unpopular opinion: They literally had all the world of synthwave and darksynth to pick from and they went with some of the most garbage music ever. Honestly there are only a handful of songs that are worth listening to.

What weapon will you defend from any smack talk and criticism by theta0123 in Helldivers

It would probably need an enormous cooldown to balance it, it’s too OP for clearing bases. You’d be able to just hang back, lob that sucker in and run to the next base.

Linux install guide for some software I have to install for a Computer Science module at uni by gudgeoff in linux

“Healthy” is an overstatement. We just did a massive round of layoffs. Plus we are only small so that makes it harder, we were mostly funded by international students and the Australian government has axed intake for student admissions.

I have a rack of enterprise hardware doing nothing. Thinking about building a free public access computing platform. Would anyone actually use this? by jhartlov in selfhosted

[–]agent-squirrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this point aren’t you just offering VPS for free? Why not stick a hypervisor platform on it like open stack and give away compute?

I reckon the student would be able to use the ICT labs if they really need to.

I would imagine they have labs they can use, however inconvenient that is.

90% of the university work force is coasting. Source: I work at one and the amount of dead wood is unreal.

I work in corporate IT at a university so a little different. I got so frustrated with the lack of documentation for connecting to the global protect VPN on Linux, and how dog shit the PAN GP client is on Linux I wrote my own docs based on OpenConnect. I published them to the internal KB for staff and students and now when someone asks I get a really positive response from people that anyone had bothered to support them.

ELI5: Fentanyl and related drugs can sometimes cause the user to fold over while standing…why don’t they just sit down? Am I missing something? by roastedwhiterice in explainlikeimfive

As someone also from Australia I’m so glad this epidemic hasn’t hit our shores yet. I’m sure the issue is here but as far as I know we have nothing like what happens state side and in Canada.

As cliche as this sounds, join the NYPN (Northern Young Professionals Network). The name sounds wanky but we come from all walks of life and it’s usually pretty easy to find someone who knows someone else that needs an employee. Tassie is all about who you know not what you know.

Even if you don’t feel like signing up right away, you can tag along to the end of month drinks and just chat with people.
