Her sex is quite relevant for her writings. Any man was fair target for guns. She wrote from undisturbed safety of her privilege.

Even her treatment by military police after arrest was different.

Please stop discriminating against women!

Women are capable of fighting in wars!

Pretty serious.

There is a war going on right now, look at injury to death ratios. It would be nice to have some nurses around, maybe so many soldiers would not bleed to death!

And 20 years old woman is more physically capable than 60 years old male!

It is real shame US army did not allowed more women on D-Day. There were 17 years old boys on beach, any woman is capable of doing such assault!

Women still face horrible discrimination, when it comes to combat deployment and deaths, even today!

Not really, employment is too vulnerable position, too much liability, and too many taxes.

Today such people get accused by someone, and promptly fired. Later they reappear as consultants.

Quitting just because you are not paid enough is so 2014. I will gladly take 50% less, if you keep me!

With K8s on bunch of Pis I have dozens of layers, machines, network connections to monitor.

With single server, complexity is much much lower. I installed my server years ago, once a month I check logs and do updates (10 minutes of work). Some time next year I will upgrade to Ubuntu 24.04 and replace SSD (just in case), about 1 hour of work.

K8s is really horrible when it comes to time efficiency!

And than your network stops working for couple of days, and you are @#£#&. Or your backups did not work for couple of months, and you find out the hard way!

I have some hardware for fun and learning, but it is well isolated. Using K8s for home infrastructure is bad idea.

I save pages into PDF files. Low tech, but works since 2001.

I print with zero page margins, so in viewer it seems like continuous page. I found Firefox produced smallest pdfs. Chrome embeds fonts and other stuff. I also use UBlock rules to hide some elements.

Pretty useful for archiving discussions on Reddit.

Too many wars, sort of. History book I read explained that as a wrong division of power. Increased iron production failed to increase military strength.

Class that valued industrial production, looked down on warfare as something beneath them.

And warlords preferred feudal society of peasants to squeeze. Industry would threaten them.

China around 1AD had iron production comparable to England at start of industrial revolution. They were also starting to use mechanization (quote from wiki bellow).

> The effectiveness of the Chinese human and horse powered blast furnaces was enhanced during this period by the engineer Du Shi (c. AD 31), who applied the power of waterwheels to piston-bellows in forging cast iron.

My point is that "auto brewery syndrome" is pretty well known at some type of community.

Intermittent fasting is pretty much American invention with all the usual marketing.

Believing something with 4000 years of tradition in different cultures, was validated in several studies is "religious".

Versus believing something that came out last year, and has only single study sponsored by manufacturer...

Electricity exchange grid needs to be phased within 60Hz, that is a delay of a few milliseconds. Baltic states hate Russia, but they are still connected this way for example.

Maybe you do not care, but this stuff is extremely important. Airplanes could crash over a few seconds difference!

There was never a negative leap second, so most systems are not ready for it. It is not just a question of time metadata.

And cooperation could be a problem. I can not imagine Microsoft providing updates for illegal Windows 7 in North Korea, and NK government just taking them.

We can move timezone after 3000 years, when difference will be 1 hour and noticeable.

Dealing with leap seconds is very expensive. What happens if countries like China, Russia or Iran just decide to ignore leap seconds? We will have a clusterfuck of time zones divergent by a few seconds!

I am really into astronomy. But dealing with this, just so stars pass local meridian exactly at 00:00:00.000 is simply not worth it!

And one funny note, astronomers still use use Julian calendar (one made by Ceasar without Gregorian corrections in 16th century) to avoid similar issues. They avoid their own inventions!

> Since I often work in strong sunlight, I often want to reconfigure my terminal to use a light or a dark scheme depending on the time of day.

Konsole can switch color theme with simple dbus message.

For the rest, I use tmux sessions and some scripts. When I restart computer, all terminal windows with remote ssh sessions get restored.

I do not need any modifications on server (except tmux or screen package).

> new criminal offence of sharing, without consent, sexually explicit images that have been digitally created using artificial intelligence or other forms of technology.

It will be interesting to see how precisely the law is written. If the definition is too broad, it may limit use of soft pornography in advertisement and popular culture.

I do not want to see yet another digitally enhanced six pack in movie. On actor that looks like me... Sharing this stuff makes me deeply uncomfortable. (sarcasm, but not really)

> Either you agree to have your chats scanned or you can no longer share&receive pictures/videos and links!

It is not really automated, more like a few places where I collect links from:

* starred items on FreshRSS, I have a script that can extract them and reset.

* email folder in Thunderbird. On Android I use "Share as" and send emails to myself

* Bookmark folder in Brave. This gets synced from all my devices

* Paper notes with timestamp on youtube videos and podcasts. I like to listen while running, this is simple stupid method. I would like some sort of "clicker", where I just press button to tag timestamp and video, but never got time to do that.

* Paper notes with quotes from books and other PDFs I read. I have to manually find relevant URLs. This will feed new books into my system.

* Google Keep snippets. I never degoogled myself, this is pretty nice app.

* Photos from my phone. I go through that periodically.

Every a few days I go through all of that, and compile it into list of URLs. Some of that is automated (FreshRSS, Google Keep), but it is manual job.

Downloading and processing with LLM takes about two days (I use CPU, about 1000 articles weekly). I run that on my laptop over weekend. LLM generates keywords and links it with my existing notes. Larger documents have summaries with links.

Software consultant. I like to group topics (like new Kafka release) together and read it all at once, rather than slow trickle over two weeks. I also like to have my sources directly linked with notes. Offline archive is just easiest way.

I started working on my own system after Google Reader shutdown in 2013. And I really hate ads.

I have a bit different workflow:

- in first step I "tag" urls I like (in rss reader, HN, twitter, pdfs, podcast...). It is very quick, I usually spend like 2 hours per week filtering news.

- latter I collect tagged urls (from email, notes and bookmarks) and feed them into batch job

- batch job downloads text form, and converts them into markdown. HTML are converted with Reader mode, videos have transcripts with time marks...

- this gets converted into new Obsidian vault and synced with Syncthing across my devices.

- there is AI job that does some annotation and linking with existing notes.

- over next weeks (usually two) I slowly "digest" content, read it, and annotate. At end it becomes integrated into my Obsidian notes. I can copy&paste and write directly into articles.

It is very natural process for learning. I spend minimal time dealing with junk content, clickbait, ads... And it works for all types of content including video and PDFs. And offline absolutely rocks!

This laptop has a serial port, I am pretty sure vanilla Mac is capable of transferring files over serial port. We did that on DOS all the the time.

Mozilla is in bed with Google. I use brave because:

* it has reasonable way of funding, crypto may suck, but it is believable they will not sell my data

* anonymous bookmark sync with multiple profiles. With Chrome and Firefox I have to sign up for each sync.

* Chrome based debug tools

* It is usable without any plugins. In some environments I do not want to install some questionable plugins, that may change ownership anytime! (It is already named "Ublock Origin", ownership already changed )

* Proprietary Video Codecs support out of the box on Linux. Some distros do not have it, and I do not want to enable community repos.

Many rentals are not used by tourists, but people who come and stay for couple of months or years. Europe has open borders, and it is perfectly ethical to retire on Canary Islands.

Locals should demand better salary.
