I'm not here to save the world, but we can all work together to make it better.

I make posts relating mostly to retro games and privacy awareness.

Feel free to follow me to show your support for the things I post. But even if you don't follow, thanks for visiting. :-)

SIM swap attacks allow hackers to steal someone's phone number and break into any online account connected to that number, usually by tricking a carrier's customer support.

The good news is it's easy to lock down your phone number and takes just a minute or two.

This 10-year AI regulation moratorium that Republican Senators are pushing as part of their โ€œOne Big, Beautiful Billโ€ budget package would not only block new state + local rules protecting us from AI discrimination in housing, employment, and healthcare but this could also erase years of hard work passing bans on privacy-invading AI tech like facial recognition. The same tech being actively used by police, ICE + military to target vulnerable people, especially black and brown communities.

Where is the line for you?

At which point are you saying "that's enough! I have to stand up against this!" and actually go to a protest against this administration, boycott this company, or delete a social media account?

Where is the line for you to take action?

You don't have to answer here, but you should have an answer to this for yourself.

I've been relying on the command line more and more recently to do some quick changes on my system, convert videos, and do some server admin, and I realized I had never really made a quick tutorial on the basics of the #Linux command line, so here we go:

Another โ€œbigโ€ box to the collection.. RollerCoaster Tycoon! Loved this game, and still play it and RCT2 to this day. Almost slept on this one but the feelings just the cover brings back are incredible.

The specs are a laugh as well..

The article claims that Fedora is just at a brainstorming stage for this now. FC42 is due out in a couple months, none of this is happening by then. Changes to Fedora go through the Fedora Changes Process: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/program_management/changes_policy/

There will be plenty of time for the community to make their opinions known / give input. Join the community, get involved.

As for Rocky Linux, Enterprise Linux is generally based on a Fedora release that's about a year old by the time it's released. Many Fedora features / changes do not make it to EL until they're proven stable for years, and when they do they're often just a "developer preview".

Thus I do not anticipate seeing any AI/ML features _bundled_ (i.e. in a default "Workstation", "Server with GUI", "Server", or "Minimal Install" installation configuration) in EL for a very long time. If / when they ever are, it'll be a boring, stable, unexciting thing.

Stable and boring is the EL way.
