the “past Uhura puts something in a container for future Uhura to pick up” mechanic in this episode reminds me of Day Of The Tentacle

The end of the penultimate episode of #Silo season 3 is basically where I saw things going, although I still have big questions. (Was that nuke real? Was it planned this way? By whom, and to what end?)
But then early episode 10? "Troy” overseeing the murder of 9,500+ civilians with gas, then machine guns, like it’s a video game is some of the bleakest shit I’ve ever seen.
Siri thinks my work commute involves shitposting on Proggit, which, fair enough

@DidiQ@mstdn.social @donmelton@mstdn.social German. Can confirm. Holocaust education is broad and extensive, for multiple years and in multiple subjects (not just history, but German, English, etc., because “how did I affect culture? What did it do to families across Europe?” is a key point), and it doesn’t hurt kids; it builds character.
Replying to
@nicolaromano@qoto.org @Kiloku@burnthis.town @eb@social.coop but they’re *specifically* adding Copilot as a big new feature for a *spreadsheet*, so “isn’t a spreadsheet generally something where accurate arithmetic matters?” is a valid critique.

• they get to pay less money to Google
• they get to pay fewer taxes
is being sold to the public as “smile” and “look what we’re doing to help charities”. They’re whitewashing a cost-saving measure (which perverts the law, to boot) as “goodwill”.
I think “cynical” is spot on. Is it the worst they’ve done? No, there’s plenty more. But is it a good thing? No.

@gekitsu@toot.cat @DidiQ@mstdn.social @donmelton@mstdn.social yeah, but I do think my schools (OS and then Gym) may have overdone it a bit, and I will say we got fairly little history education about other regions. Mostly Eurocentric; some US and Aus. Way too little South American, Africa, Asia.

@foon@mastodon.social @uliwitness@chaos.social @stroughtonsmith@mastodon.social but that Apple TV booted Tiger, which didn’t have LK yet.
So it sounds like they back ported their early LK just for TV.
(And yes, LK = CA, not Quartz/CG. Not sure why the name change other than Steve wanting a purple CA orb at dub-dub. That’s probably the only reason.)

Is there a #Chromium fork that uses Sparkle, or a similarly unobtrusive self-updater? Chrome constantly having background daemons is gross and silly when I rarely use it.
(Edge is mildly better in that Microsoft AutoUpdate is more configurable, but feels junked up as of late)
“[When it comes to talking to far-right acquaintances], there’s three things:
• there’s what you should do
• there’s what you want to do
• there’s what it can accomplish”
Is there a #Trakt alternative that hasn’t gone to shit? Can I transfer my data to it?
I can no longer easily do the one thing I care about, which is to see what shows have I watched, and if not entirely, where did I stop?
#Fork, a git client I've been using for probably a decade, and that frankly should cost more, is now adding vertical tabs.
Previously, it had horizontal Safari-style tabs, and eventually added a notion of "workspaces" to switch between different _sets_ of tabs. This was in theory useful (for example, I had work and home workspaces), but I've always found it clunky.

You do realise .NET is just a CLR bytecode runtime, right?
Yes? But if hosting PHP in Python makes PHP a Python subset, then using PeachPie must make PHP a .NET subset.
