Make a list of all the FOSS/OSS things you use in your daily life

I wasn’t prepared for a project of this magnitude, seriously OSS is everywhere

Nepotism? In DC!? I can’t believe it!

Not only a late addition, but purposefully not clarified or explicitly stated at the beginning, or even at the end, of the article. This is like fine print, tucked into the content of the article so that you have to read the entire piece to get that information. Even then, if you are in the midst of the article you might not even consider how it impacts the framing. They also use distancing language there to avoid as much as possible connecting themselves to ownership.

I personally think it looks fine, seems to look like a happy penguin to me

Sometimes I wonder how many advertisements are heavily influenced by AI-generated prompts. How many reels on YouTube are just AI generated scripts? How many posts on Reddit are just rehashed AI nonsense?

Something something dead internet theory

As soon as they can make multiple displays work over a single USB-C I may be able to ditch the double dongle nightmare I have right now

The media takes a press release, signs off on it and releases it usually word for word a lot. They’ll put their name and brand on it, but that’s a honest to goodness press release.

This article might be a blend, strange that at least on mobile I can’t find an author for this one.

If only everyone realized that grass is just a weed and not worth the maintenance and effort we put into it, it’s sad how ubiquitous it is in some places

Even we who are in US software engineering don’t always have US software engineering salaries

Hilarious that the company that pioneered cloud solutions and made working from home for a ton of people ridiculously easier decides that their employees don’t deserve to work from home. Something something corporate office real estate crisis.

Three years ago and no one has batted an eye, the automotive industry has already gripped tight and there is little in the short-term to loosen that chokehold. I guess it starts locally, small changes can add up very quickly. Lose the car, ride a bike, begin telling people about how wasteful vehicles are, share stuff like this. Get friends thinking about clean alternatives.
