worthless-trash··on Show HN: Subvocal – Talk to your computer without making noise
Thank you for bringing this up, as a fellow big head person I struggle to find 'decent' glasses that dont pinch my head.

I was thinking about the even G2 right up to this point.

No, one blames the user, the other is behing honest.
worthless-trash··on WTF Ubuntu?
There were other fragmentation flaws that were equally as bad as this, I wrote the reproducer.

IIRC it had minimal HN discussion.

worthless-trash··on WTF Ubuntu?
Its only the media / publicity that drives this one, there were worse within the last year that nobody seems to care about.

Amen to that.
worthless-trash··on CVE-2026-98432: Linux TCP Use-After-Free Risk and Patch Validation
Leading 'maybe' to an RCE, i imagine you need to groom the heap first, unless there is something i'm missing.

Edit: also thanks for using RCE correctly, it seems to be any kind of code execution these days is considered "RCE".. boo.

worthless-trash··on StackOverflow now gets fewer than 1000 questions a month
My favorite point was when you're the single person to have worked on a problem, published an answer, published a paper had the answer accepted and some MUPPET edits your answer to mean something else entirely, and it has your 'name' now beside an incorrect answer.

I've had good success with https://juicycrumb.com/product/docklite/#imac-model

There is a g4 model too there if thats the version you have.

Thank you!

Please, let me know which AI you have working with janet, I find everything I try to fail horribly, i thinks its clojure.
worthless-trash··on The gap in shared understanding of LLM capability is widening
I was under the impression that the point of strict types was that the code wouldnt compile/run with wrong type information.

I agree, but i play a few hours of games, now and again.. competitively.
worthless-trash··on A 100x faster* alternative to homebrew
I find the english perhaps a little too rigid when reading it for non technical manuals. I do agree though it is definitely LESS slop.
worthless-trash··on LeCun has "zero concerns" about AI wiping out humanity, recent "rogue" incidents
He needs to dream a little bigger darling. Hes not thinking evil enough.
worthless-trash··on PS5 Relapse Exploit
Yes. But that is work, time and money.

They don't want to sacrifice any of that.

worthless-trash··on PS5 Relapse Exploit
We have had very... different experiences with stadia. It was not at all useful gor low latency games..

It is not suitable for competition ranked players. The average player will stomp over high ranked players.

There is no violence, because the pinata is not alive.

There is no more violence in hitting a nail with a hammer.

worthless-trash··on Ask HN: 3.5 inch diskette read errors, would a period correct drive do better?
It may be easier, instead of a serial cable, use a IDE hard disk drive.

You can still purchase IDE USB caddies for your modern system to write to.

Libvirt isn't even difficult, were they trying ?
worthless-trash··on Ask HN: Fable hacked my piano, can I release the results?
Don't get me wrong, they absolutely can DMCA you if the hosting is in a foreign country iirc.

I was under the impression thr prescedant was:

Data Access Corporation v Powerflex Services Pty Ltd (1999), alongside specific provisions in the Copyright Act 1968.

The australian DMCA is called the TPM, it's more aimed at Bypassing, decrypt, or circumvent a digital lock or DRM (Digital Rights Management) protecting copyrighted material.

I do not think that phantom notes are encryption or rights management.

If you do your hosting in australia for your code/software, the US companies will probably have a bad time trying to convince the australian courts that access is the same as copyright infringement.

I'm not a lawyer, but i'll be damned if the 'vibe of it' shouldn't be a legal defense.

worthless-trash··on Ask HN: Fable hacked my piano, can I release the results?
You publish it as the organ-guy piano system for a virtual piano that you've lost the code for.

On a serious note: reverse engineering is legal in australia, even for DMCA violations.

why are you on hn, you are billing in 6 minute increments!

There is just.. so many.

Right, so we need to utterly destroy people doing civil violence, or it'll ripple out quicker.

Lets just cull the bottom 2% of offenders this decade, and see its long term effects.

worthless-trash··on The turbulent AI era is here
Up front, thank you for the civil discussion.

I'm not doubting that it can be done on the small scale. I just dont think it can be done on any large scale. You kinda skipped over what I stated.

There isnt a way to distribution of shelter, food and storage on the scale required with the collapsing tech tree that will happen when UBI is across the board.

The same factory that creates the plastic extrusions for the dog bowl are the ones that make it for the compost toilet. (Yes, Ive used a real outback dunny), even that has a tech tree that is outside of the basic requirements you've understood.

This doesn't go into the issues that will happen when the tech and delivery tree of things as simple as insulin happen. Every parent I know is going to get back into those three jobs to save their kid, its not even a question.

I have serious concern that the "UBI will work" attitude will be successful, it sounds great short term and if we as a society adopt it, and it fails (it will) we've fucked humanity for the rest of time.

Unless every citizen in every country adopts it, those who maintain their military machine will dominate the rest of the planet so easily it would be finished up in a year.

This passive position is a luxury that certain western countries have.
