#jwz reports that everytime they #post on #mastodon they #ddos themselves. This will only get worse if the #service gets even more #popular https://www.jwz.org/blog/2022/11/mastodo..
Someone getting very #mad about the C #language , but not really understanding why it really became #popular https://faultlore.com/blah/c-isnt-a-lang.. For example, #cpp exists, and yet for kernel stuff, we still use C, despite C++ being fully capable of doing everything C can in a similar #syntax . C is used because it does not need to rely on anything existing, it's compatible nowhere, but also runs everywhere.
Interesting #xorg #xserver #userspace #hack left in the #linux #kernel because of #popular #broken #code https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-DRM-.. It means that all #programs that start with the letter 'X' are run completely differently from other #software . Potentially could have been used for #malware or something!
The latest #season 2 of #tigerking was pretty good, this time concentrating more on the #characters behind the #popular #series ... I.e. the #death of #carolebaskin 's #husband , #joeexotic 's #imprisonment , #murder #plots and many other things. Highly interesting. These people are for sure insane!
#china 's #ccp are claiming that the #popular #app #flightradar is a danger to #nationalsecurity because it exposes the #location of #military #aircraft - a statement that is either false or a fundamental problem of their military operations: https://theprint.in/opinion/chinascope/c.. Apparently though, what it *could* do is provide location information about #ccp officials and their private #jets ...
Interesting, turns out that so-called #ghostguns are getting more #popular with #criminals - where they can 3D #print them! https://www.latimes.com/california/story.. I didn't realize 3D #printing has come so far!

Cool that #axial #flux #motors are becoming more #popular - especially as it's one of the oldest #electric #motor #designs https://hackaday.com/2021/10/10/axial-fl..
Interesting, currently listening to the #advpodcast on #youtube and apparently #squidgame - the #popular #korean #tv #series - is getting very popular in #china despite the #censors https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSYWtW7t.. The crazy part is that there is tonnes of anti- #ccp #messaging and #chinese people are starting to question things!

I think I will be looking to entirely #decentralize from their #service if this is what we can expect...
Most #popular #us #president in #history #biden breaks records for #disapproval https://www.lotuseaters.com/hostility-ag.. He was literally #booed at a 9/11 #memorial in #democrat run #newyork - the #optics couldn't be any worse. Someone needs to #sunset him already, although nobody wants cackling #harris as president. What an absolute cock-up. #fuckjoebiden
