The Verge is doubling down and it's a good one to read and share 👌
https://www.theverge.com/report/901818/hbo-harry-potter-jk-rowling-transphobia

Especially to your cis folks who are still somehow arguing that it's possible to watch something that’s directly funding a worldwide fascist crusade against trans people without being a part of the problem.

Not a surprise that @43081j's post on JS ecosystem bloat is *extremely* kind and patient towards the people who are polluting the Node/NPM corpus, so I'll say what he won't: if the people who are promoting the bloat can't produce live customers demanding forward-compat for a ancient runtimes + modern dependencies, we all need to shun and reject these sorts of net-negative contributions:

Not for nothing, but some of us were ranting about the cache gap as far back as 2017, amd the omnishambles Android SoC ecosystem lays at Qualcomm's feet. It will be another half decade before real gains trickle down to volume price points. Not that our tech press cover devices for anyone but the rich.

It's a day that ends in "y", so The Verge is writing browser competition out of the mobile antitrust picture. Infuriating failure to understand the core problems(s) and talk about the opportunities plainly:

Finding the program responsible for controlling a mounted FUSE filesystem is a little obscure, but it's possible. The trick is hidden in an fdinfo field.

I put together a script that'll show all the current FUSE mounts and their processes: https://gitlab.com/-/snippets/5973894

Uhoh, my work phone number is broken, and it looks like has been for almost two weeks 😬 I can see a missed call and a bunch of text message notifications within the app, but I've not gotten any call forwarding or push notifications, and I still can't see text message contents.

I thought it was odd that I'd not gotten text-based #rsac spam, but I remained unreasonably hopeful. Updating, clearing cache and restarting the app all didn't get it.

Anybody else seen this kind of VoIP problem? How did you fix it?

A thing that never stops being funny to me is that electoral reform is stymied by the fact there are separate camps who want instant-runoff voting, Condorcet ranked voting, and proportional representation, and they don't cooperate. Seriously one of the funniest things to happen in human history. First Past the Post has a plurality of support so it wins every engagement. First Past the Post wins by First Past the Post rules.
