That’s probably just RMS being RMS

Vibe coding, the crystal meth of software

So glad my TV is a dumb-as-shit model from the early 00s I bought secondhand for about $30

Under the benevolent gaze of Richard Stallman’s fursona.

Which is great news if you’re a Mossad agent tasked with figuring out a target’s life patterns

Require printers to check digital signatures on STL files and have only approved slicers add those

Tim Cook thought he had saved Apple’s stock valuation by giving Trump his fake award, but, like the businessman who pays protection money, he merely marked Apple out as pliable.

Surely when number goes up far enough, it magically gains sentience and godlike powers
