- Comment on Linux Ham Radio KISS Serial Driver Being Modernized In 2026 1 day ago:
OK, thanks, both for the key information (AX.25) and the link. I’m still stuck in the times where HAM radio was just speech, although I know that you guys do data somehow, but i thought it was more like a peer-to-peer system. That you’ve got a real network infrastructure there is new to me.

- Comment on What OSes do Microsoft servers run on? 3 days ago:
Back when Microsoft acquired Hotmail, a horde of software specialists were tasked with porting this platform to Windows. After burning the one or other fortune on this project, they finally gave up. Hotmail kept running on Linux until they killed it.

Well, jar sauces are rarely good. But an expensive one being substandard (as it seems to be the case here) is particularly bad.

There is a funny story about the ladies just wearing saris.
A priest had gotten used to this over time, out of necessity not to alienate his flock. One day, he announced that the bishop would visit, and that he was not used to bare bosoms, and he asked the women to cover their breasts next Sunday.
So next Sunday, the bishop arrived in his car, and the priest saw that the women did not wear something on top. So he reminded them to cover up, please, now!
So they pulled up their short skirts over their breasts, revealing that they also did not wear underwear…

I’m not pro-AI, but this could easily be modern art, too. The difference between human slop and AI slop is rather floating.

Just go to any European tourist hotspot. Americans stick out like sore thumbs.

If you are american, it usually shows. There is normally no way to hide that identity.

- Comment on Video game PEGI age-ratings are changing in Europe from June. Four new categories added to tackle elements of addictive design, unmonitored online communication and loot boxes 2 weeks ago:
Does the means that interplayer communication like in Minecraft or other games would push it to PEGI18?

- Comment on Dragon Quest creator Yuji Horii says English translations inevitably strip away a lot of a game's "flavor" 3 weeks ago:
But on the other hand, if they don’t translate it, will this leave the game unplayable for people not speaking Japanese?

I don’t know why they did not include all the taxes on fuel into the study. There are several different taxes, and together they are way higher than what this chart suggests.
Currently, we have prices between 2 and 3 euro per litre here, of which the vast majority is taxes of all sorts.
