I thought we lured them all onto Facebook then ran for the hills?

Maybe the jacket has a kevlar fiber for support?

Of course they would do that.

Then ensure it's wisely leaked by a third party.

Automated defenses have value, but so does making distrust the default it should have been in the first place.

Clueful people don't expect others to be intelligent. We've seen who they elect.

> One older cpu went flakey with "cpu errors"

That's often the thermal paste drying out. Clean the fan, repaste the chip, good for a few more years.

Usually.

A recent psychology study suggests that heavy AI users can improve productivity and lose the ability to focus at the same time.

Forgetting which list is in the To: could be an example of diminished focus.

Pure spec.

Not jumping ship until a politically fashionable trigger event offers itself is a fine way to profit from a system to which one expediently objects. That's an admirably shrewd career move, not rage against anyones machine.

Bailing out "in protest" when you're making phat bank to go make even phatter bank is great self-promotion with no downside. Seriously capable people don't stay unemployed long. The departing will be easily replaced which reinforces corporate policies they object to. No one loses anything because nothing is sacrificed.

"In addition, the SoundTouch app will no longer function after Feb. 18, 2026, though it will still be available for download until then in markets outside of Japan. Users' My Bose accounts will remain active.

As for why itâ(TM)s cutting support now, Bose says technology has evolved since the speakers first launched in 2013 and that itâ(TM)s âoeno longer able to sustain the development and support of the cloud infrastructure that powers this older generation of products.â

This likely isnâ(TM)t welcome news for audiophiles who have spent large sums of money on the SoundTouch rangeâ"particularly as units such as the SoundTouch 30 retailed for north of $1,000. One Reddit user claims heâ(TM)s now sitting on âoe$4,000 worth of bricks" following the move. Meanwhile, others called the ending of support "exploitative,â shared links to a petition calling on Bose to renew support for the SoundTouch range, and asked their fellow users to send emails to Bose's management team."

Bose survives on lifestyle marketing and nostalgia. They made decent small dorm and barracks systems when I bought 901s at the Ramstein audio photo club, but that era is ancient history.

There are few options for low-damage area denial. Which ARE acceptable and why?

A heat ray beats tear "gas" (which is really a cloud or spray of particulates) whose misery lasts after the target quits the area.

Even if you wear a CBRN mask the rest of you often gets smegged and that IME is not pleasant.

A heat ray does not require physical combat with attendant injuries.

When Slashdot mattered it was glorious.

While of course my Lenovo fleet is mostly from Ebay and of course runs Linux (with some Windows guests because why not?) I buy far more via Ebay.

People often part out personal vehicles and parts stashes cheaper than I can buy them from my local salvage yard buddies.

I don't even have to travel to save money. Much love for my local self-service salvage but that's also a drive so Ebay keeps winning with small sellers making bank.

I also bought my used commercial toaster for small money after my junk new Panasonic toaster oven died in a year, and repaired my Kenmore microwave with a used magnetron (then repaired my shit new Panasonic with used control board).

Looks like both bookworm and trixie are fixed as of about 3am UTC last night.

Sync your mirrors if it's off cycle. Luckily mine sync around 9am, hopefully the buildbots were busy..

For bookworm you need 8.2.35-1~deb12u1 .

Thank you, Guilhem.
