RustyBertrand"Susan Sontag... did get off one sound bite in an interview on television, which was to me a stunning sermon in and of itself. She was asked what she had learned from the Holocaust, and she said that 10 percent of any population is cruel, no matter what, and that 10 percent is merciful, no matter what, and that the remaining 80 percent could be moved in either direction."
-Kurt Vonnegut
Alice Averlong🏳️⚧️anyway my favorite part of this A20 line thing is that it was supported by Intel chips up until Haswell, in 2013.
So in 2012 your 8 gigabyte of RAM PC booted up with every other megabyte of RAM mirrored to each other.
Graham Sutherland / PolynomialUEFI getting owned by the vendor logo parser code is extremely on brand.
Tons of time and effort put into securing platform stuff and it gets popped anyway because execs want the laptop to show the user a Lenovo logo for 3 seconds on boot even though it's already printed *right there on the fucking laptop*.

I’m hoping to draw attention to the possibilities of FOSS gaming, but what will follow is hardly exhaustive. But I have tried to gather the names a few FOSS games on Android I’ve enjoyed burning time with, and a few desktop games I’ve heard of or played with occasionally that are worthy of more attention from the gaming community: > > https://rldane.space/foss-games-are-actually-pretty-good.html [https://rldane.space/foss-games-are-actually-pretty-good.html]
Aral BalkanWhat’s sad is realising you live in a world where every exaggerated analogy you used to make a point is actually happening:
Having Google in schools is like having McDonalds in nutrition class. (I find out that McDonalds does, in fact, sponsor nutrition classes in US schools.)
Having a surveillance capitalist sponsor a conference on free and open source/human rights is like having an oil company sponsor a climate conference. (Forget sponsoring, turns out head of #Cop28 runs an oil firm.)

Troy Hunt10 years ago today, I started a pet project with a stupid name. Like all my previous projects, I expected it to scratch an itch and then fail miserably.
