  • It’s complicated, Linus at home wants the baby easy setup that just works, and in his mind Linux will only meet that need for him once steamos is out. He accidentally nuked his pop_os! installation setup if that tells you how software illiterate he can be sometimes.

    There team is very different in opinions and it’s not uncommon for them to be making an amazing server build that’s clearly on linux. They use MacOS for their video editors. It’s just more complicated than any one sentence can boil it down to.


  • Nobody, and I mean NOBODY with any amount of psychology education actually think Freud was right on anything. He was the biggest pseudoscientist of all time.

    See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oedipus_complex#Criticism

    Studies conducted of children’s attitudes to parents at the oedipal stage do not demonstrate the shifts in positive feelings that are predicted by the theory.[54] Case studies that Freud relied upon, such as the case of Little Hans, could not be verified through research or experimentation on a larger population.[55] Adolf Grünbaum argues that the type of evidence Freud and his followers used, the clinical productions of patients during analytic treatment, by their nature cannot provide cogent observational support for Freud’s core hypotheses.[56]

    Evolutionary psychologists Martin Daly and Margo Wilson, in their 1988 book Homicide, argue that the Oedipus complex theory yields few testable predictions. They find no evidence of the Oedipus complex in people. There is evidence of parent–child conflict but it is not for sexual possession of the opposite sex-parent.[57]

    According to psychiatrist Jeffrey Lieberman, Freud and his followers resisted subjecting his theories, including the Oedipus theory, to scientific testing and verification.[58] Lieberman claims that investigations based in cognitive psychology either contradict or fail to support Freud’s ideas.[58]







  • I mean the joke is the subversion of gender roles, reversing it just makes it not funny.

    The dev joke is fine, clearly that’s not a vibe coder but a developer who is lazy and wants job security. It’s just funny the contrast between the fields (especially since it’s much more harmful to the artists with the stealing of the art).

    I love to hate on things but it’s just not that serious. If you don’t like it that’s fine but the quality doesn’t seem to be in freefall




  • That is the correct way of thinking, never trust anything with your passwords.

    I was curious on what haveibeenpwned does, so I took a look at what the network tab in dev tools said what was actually sent. When I type a password (say password123) and press check it runs a function that hashes with the “SHA-1” hash function and then sends the first 5 characters of the result. The response is over a thousand lines in the format of 35 hash characters:number of breaches

    If any of these hashes are the start of your original hash, you now know it’s exposed and how many times it’s been exposed.





  • I agree, but our justice system has clearly failed us. It’s extremely frustrating, which is why a lot of us are very emotionally charged for this issue.

    I’m a complete hypocrite, as I believe justice should let some criminals walk free if it means no innocents are punished… but I also want the files unleashed. my guess is it’s because I know the people in there will be people I won’t like, but still extremely hypocritical and logically conflicting with my morals.
