Well, they title is just clickbait, the article quotes Trump saying that he knows what a corner store it. Which is a weird thing to say, sure, but he certainly didn’t say he doesn’t know.

I keep seeing comments like this, and I just need to say, no Palantir doesn’t have any database. It’s a completely evil company that makes and sells surveillance software to governments and companies. Then the governments and companies have these terrible databases that they manage with the Palantir software.

Palantir themselves don’t do any spying or data collecting. They sell tools so that others can do that. They absolutely take the blame, but I want people to understand what’s actually happening.

You are giving him to much credit of you think he’s just pretending to break things.

LTT will define his Linux desktop experience

I’ll just say LTT is a channel not a person, and the latest “Linux challenge” has three participants each with their own approaches and opinions.

To make matters worse, this is an Operating System level requirement, which means it has more permissions than any other piece of software you run

That’s not a given, it could easily be implemented as a normal application with normal permissions, that the OS starts when needed.

I see what you mean now, you were talking about what words people use, not whether the definition of the word program applies to something.

How is a mobile app or a function-as-a-service not a program though? They are clearly programs, at least to me.

I mean, he’s clearly an asshole, but he didn’t kill or physically hurt anyone, nor did he cause significant monetary damage. I think 6 months of hard labor is appropriate and enough time to reflect on his behaviour.

But Minecraft’s ecosystem makes it super easy to run any version you like best. Play the Minecraft you loved and ignore the latest versions if you don’t like them. It’s basically just a game engine anyway, the actual game is all the mods you install.

Different in that it’s not an AI model, it’s just a tool you can use to run AI models like Claude.

Yeah, they have alternatives thankfully.

It’s hardly a fuck you to Musk since the Artemis program depends on SpaceX and the next mission is going to use a SpaceX rocket according to current NASA plans.

Yeah, SpaceX had nothing to do with Artemis II specifically, but that’s because SpaceX is responsible for the Moon landing, not for the flyby, in the Artemis plans.

You seem to be under an impression that the actual notification that you see in the notification shade of your phone must go through FCM. That is not true. There are no external services involved in generating notifications on Android, apps can just show notifications by themselves.

What FCM is used for is sending a wakeup call to an app. The naming is confusing, but the “notification service” is not sending a notification in the sense of what you see in the notification shade. It is notifying an app of an event. The app can then react in any way it wants, possibly by creating a notification for the notification shade. But the notification you see in the UI of your phone didn’t go through FCM.

Some apps do (or can be configured to) indeed send “empty”/blank notifications which just notify you that you’ve received a new message from an app, but not from whom, or what the message contains.

And this is a completely separate thing. Yes, you can configure apps to not show details in notifications, but that has nothing to do with FCM. It only controls what the app does locally, when generating the local notification, after FCM is no longer involved (if it was involved in the first place - many notifications don’t need it, for example a notification from a timer app).

If you get a push notification on your phone, everything you see in that notification must by definition pass through the push notification service.

This statement is easy to disprove in another way too. FCM only supports sending up to 4KB of data, and yet you can get a notification with high resolution images. Which also shows that no, things you see in the notification didn’t have to pass through the push notification service - the local app got the data and prepared the notification by itself, possibly after being woken up to do so by FCM.

Local, on-device apps don’t need to go through FCM or any other servers to show notifications, apps generate notifications offline.

Same goes for Signal, it doesn’t ask FCM to deliver a notification, it asks to deliver a wakeup ping, and then the Signal app gets the message and generates a notification locally.

I thought it’s an anti-MAGA hat, but your comment makes me consider it wasn’t intended to be…

I’m aware. Teslas are probably safer than the average old car you have on the roads. But you hear about them a lot more.

I watched it live, they did respond to his direct questions, but at some point Trump went into a monologue that didn’t end in a question, and they didn’t say anything back, keeping a silence going for an awkward amount of time until Houston asked if they are still on the line and they confirmed that yeah they heard everything. And said nothing else.

That’s what the article calls “key sources”. There are many more below (Mara bar Serapion, Suetonius, The Talmud, and more under “minor sources”).

There are so many sources that there is more evidence for his existence than for any other person living at the time.

This article mentions at least 14 independent sources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sources_for_the_historicity_of_Jesus

You are of course free to dismiss all of the sources and have your own opinion, that’s perfectly fine, but do acknowledge that you would be going against established scientific consensus.

Definitely enough for a whole separate Wikipedia article to list them all: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sources_for_the_historicity_of_Jesus
