Forget charging “actual costs” for electricity, I think we should do like tax brackets and charge progressively more per kiloWatt-hour consumed. Let industry and corpo-sized services duke it out for who can consume the least, while protecting individual/personal use as well as small business, local-economy uses from the bigger actors throwing their weight around.
Who knows, we might even be able to ensure free electricity to keep the lights on for everyone with the right kind of bracketing.
Reprise d’escalade après les vacances scolaires (le club arrête durant), j’ai hâte! J’aimerai faire quelques sorties VTT/VTC dans les bois à côté de chez moi, mais faudra voir s’il arrête de pleuvoir un jour…

Vic Lagina, who was a lead producer and director for the porn production company Brazzers for 16 years and is the author of Filthy!: The Rise and (Pending) Death of Vic Lagina, welcomes it. “As a former business owner in porn, the prospect of completely eliminating humans from the equation in porn production would be extremely enticing,” he wrote in an email to Playboy, celebrating an end to “self-serving attitudes of performers, … questions about revoked consent despite whatever rigid protocols are in place, … bad hygiene, … and waiting for wood from a shaky male performer” before concluding: “It sounds like a dream.”
huh.
It seems to me to be a rebuke, on the authors’/creators’ part, of the certainty and purposefulness with which each of these political movements and ideologies advance their worldview.
As much as Factorio’s map gen algorithm is great for ensuring balanced access to resources and (functionally) infinite sprawl, I would love some handcrafted maps that involve feature scale and fractality (fractalness?) approaching real life. The default map gen is too samey after a certain point and size reached.
That’s one long heel /s
Can someone explain how/confirm/deny that the proposed fix for this issue actually solves the problem? I think I understand the problem statement but I *fail to see how constructing a Some(&...) is in any way different than using iter::slice in terms of falsely guaranteeing immutability of user-space-backed memory.
Side-comment: what a surprise that the account posting the surface-level (quite possibly disingenuous) comment has what appears (to me) to be an AI-generated profile pic of a (conventionally) attractive slim blonde woman! It’s almost like it’s not an actual woman making the comment, and they’re making the comment primarily for/towards other non-women…
More seriously, it reeks of the same tone as Musk’s “concerning.” tweets.
Yeah, compared to the USA it’s an improvement but compared to many places here in Europe it’s almost appalling.
Ah, so it’s more like Imgur for the fediverse. I imagine it would be possible for multiple servers to share a picts-rs instance, even if in practice it never happens.
Sometimes I wonder if Charlie Kirk wouldn’t have been all for what his now-widow has been doing, given how much of a ghoul the man was in life.
It reads like they’re basically making an alternative to picts-rs, or am I missing some key difference?
I didn’t read any mention of the Public Key Directory server approach/proposal (c.f. https://soatok.blog/2025/12/15/announcing-key-transparency-fediverse/) in the post nor the two pages it links to. I think overall E2EE is important for messages, full stop, but I do hope that it won’t be as user - opaque as Signal and WhatsApp nor as rough of a user experience as how matrix was when I used it back in 2019.
I think what you’re favorably describing stops being “vibe-coding” and starts simply being “coding with LLM assistance”. And I suspect most people in this thread railing against vibe-coding are much less hostile to LLM assistance. In any case, I don’t think saying that people “should start accepting this fact” will convince anyone that wasn’t already, especially if you call it all “vibe coding”.
I want to disagree with you, but then I see the responses you got here and how many upvotes they got and I can’t help but think that you might be right. Still, until we get transcripts and/or recordings of conversations had at this gathering I don’t think there’s much to be gained from speculation.
Drôlement difficile à ne pas finir en pat.
I’d agree with you in general, but this streamer spends 8+ hours a day talking about political news - not exactly “play video games for a few hours”).
Have you seen the size of the average butt plug? If the seed stays smooth and slimy in transit (debatable), I don’t think it would be too difficult to pass. I’d be most worried about getting it through some of the kinks in the intestine.
