Watching the #artemis astronauts interview brought me so much joy. It takes me back to elementary school where I fell in love with #Nasa. I went to #SpaceCamp, #SpaceAcademy, and even did a level 2 Space Academy. I feel like a kid watching the live stream.
Can someone tell the folks up there in #Artemis to reboot their router? The live stream keeps timing out!

@timagal I had to look this one up. #LinkedIn isn't searching your entire computer. It just scan for other installed browser extensions.

Is it wrong? Yes
Is it illegal? No clue
Is this post extremely misleading? Yes!

edit: here's my source: https://browsergate.eu/what-is-browsergate/

Introduction - What is BrowserGate?

Linkedin is searching your computer Every time you visit linkedin.com, a JavaScript program embedded in the page scans your browser for installed Chrome extensions. The program runs silently, without any visible indicator to the user. It does not ask for consent. It does not disclose what it is doing. It reports the results to LinkedIn’s servers. This is not a one-time check. The scan runs on every page load, for every visitor.

@Kadin2048 @plexus I'm coming to the same conclusion. I'm not happy with the output of local LLM coding assistants just yet. Ollama is great as a replacement for AI agents that need to make API calls, but I'm not seeing the level of reasoning that makes Claude Code so effective. We're close, but not quite there.
@Zeugs @Bit @plexus II take it all back. I keep finding tool failures. And worse, it's lying about failed tests. I've found plenty of similar bug reports. I would not trust any code written by #ClaudeCode using local models.
@Dero_10 I love the MarshMadness hash tag!
@akesi_Anima @Emily I know she's a shitty person and the money she makes is being used to fight us. But the original post I commented on was claiming that ALL the money made by this new miniseries will be used to fund her evil ways. I just curious if there was any evidence for that claim.
@Emily I know that she's a shit head, but I was curious on the claim that "The author of those books has declared that all profits she gets from it will go directly to "... J.K. Rowling Women’s Fund.
@Emily source?
