Well, most HSVs have been wrapped around light poles, so that crowd moved on to rangers
- Comment on Interesting ad campaign by Ford 2 hours ago:
Good point, that could certainly break up the monotony :D
- Comment on Interesting ad campaign by Ford 4 hours ago:
Probably a little less exciting, would be 1hr of people failing to reverse park, or slowly backing into light poles :D

I’ll beleive that. Rude of them not to say hello.

I dont think so, it was more like a line of cloud, not a thin streak. Almost like a skywriter left a trail
- Comment on Discussion Thread 🎉 Thursday 1 January 2026 16 hours ago:
Its not moving like a laser normally would. And I dont recall seeing starlinks leaving a semi-permanent streak?
- Comment on Discussion Thread 🎉 Thursday 1 January 2026 16 hours ago:
Anyone know what the long white line in the sky is?
Best photo I could get, but its a long straight white line, very narrow. I dont think I’m having a stroke, my partner can also see it.
- Comment on Do you think Google execs keep a secret un-enshittified version of their search engine and LLM? 1 day ago:
I dont think any of these tech execs (all execs?) use their products. They all have assistants to do everything for them, so they have no idea what this whole “internet” thing is, other than it makes them money.

Pfft, dont need to pay damages if you bankrupt yourself financing the ranger. Ranger smarts taps temple
- Comment on Interesting ad campaign by Ford 1 day ago:
Thats because it is. The Ranger Danger special.
- Comment on Interesting ad campaign by Ford 2 days ago:
Looks like the Ranger ran the red light, based on it being a ranger - FIxed it for you :D

- Comment on Self-hosting with an old laptop 1 week ago:
-
Yes, lots of people do this. Good idea to remove the battery if possible, or you’ll have a spicy balloon eventually.
-
VPN (or cloudflare tunnel) is not a bad idea, but its not essential either, my server is publically exposed, and it largely isnt a problem. I only expose port 443 and some specific random high ports though. I wouldnt expose 22 to the internet.
-
Keep SSH, just dont expose to the internet, its always nice to have multiple ways into a box, incase one is hung or something.

- Comment on What is the moral jurisdiction behind not wishing who're rich and in executive positions to die? 1 week ago:
To address the edit, I think part of the US’s problem is that you are already on the slope, and have been for a while. Violence has been normalised and accepted (and legalised as you’ve pointed out). I’d like to beleive you can reverse course, but it certainly doesnt seem likely.
I dont have any answers for you or op, but if it were me, I would focus on the defence and protection of my family/community first, rather than searching for retribution. I know that sounds hollow and empty though.
- Comment on What is the moral jurisdiction behind not wishing who're rich and in executive positions to die? 1 week ago:
I can definitely place people above the line so to speak, but I dont think I could draw an objective one-size-fits-all line.
Humanity is a continuous spectrum from people living in extreme poverty up to the one percent, and its very hard to find any clean delinineation that I would be comfortable drawing the line through.
And the other problem is that the definition of that line would vary wildly from person to person.
If I’m honest with myself, I live in a well off first world country, that in of itself means that I am indirectly responsible for a non-zero amount human suffering in other parts of the world. It doesnt necessarily make me black and white evil, but to someone in one of those parts of the world, they definitely might see it that way.
I’m happy with death as a penalty for certain acts of evil, but I would want it to be the exception, not the rule. Everytime someone is death-row’d, we should all be unanimously sure that its the right thing to do.
- Comment on Firefox will have AI kill switch 1 week ago:
We dont want a kill switch, we want an on switch. Dead by default. How are they struggling with the as a concept?
- Comment on What is the moral jurisdiction behind not wishing who're rich and in executive positions to die? 1 week ago:
You used so many subjective terms in that description. You can draw the line at a number, that is objective (but see tax evasion for how that works in practice), but “heavy worker exploitation” is entirely subjective.
In my mind, most failing hospitality businesses fall into “heavy worker exploitation”, but many of them are owner by people who arent billionaires.
- Comment on What is the moral jurisdiction behind not wishing who're rich and in executive positions to die? 2 weeks ago:
Lol, that is definitely not true. You may have a list, it almost certainly doesn’t match everyone else’s list.
And let’s say we complete your list. What then? If things dont improve, do we lower the bar and try again?
- Comment on What is the moral jurisdiction behind not wishing who're rich and in executive positions to die? 2 weeks ago:
Death sentences are a slippery slope. Today its okay to kill the rich, tomorrow its protests that block roads, or LGBT people.
Even if we still to a hard line of “only the ultra rich”, how rich is ultra rich? $1B networth? Sure. $10m net worth? Maybe. Anyone who earns more than you?

- Comment on Can I pack a couple of laptops in checked baggage from Melbourne Airport? 2 weeks ago:
Ignoring the lithium battery issue, and the actual regulations, consider that the checked in baggage will be treated with the same level of care that routinely destroys guitars and suitcases. Maybe you dont want to have your laptops dropped on the tarmac.
Also check with your work, you may have rules that prevent you putting work laptops in checked luggage, as its easiest for them to be stolen from there (or if your really paranoid, easiest for malware to be installed without your knowledge)

Thats true of all datacenters though, not just AI. 1RU fans are just crazy noisy.
- Comment on VK regulator: New equipment safety pledge to protect Australians from dodgy devices 3 weeks ago:
“Voluntary”. That’ll do it. Anyone buying a radio jammer isnt going to care about its legality anyway.
And ACMA already can’t realistically do anything about all the preexisting “illegal” radios.
