Now imagine if instead of recommending vaccination during an outbreak, it was recommended before anything happened. Crazy thought, I know. Only way this could have happened is by not having a complete moron obsessed with his countless delusions as the fucking head of the health department of one of the largest country in the world, is all.

Due to what I call some quirks (but what other people call "good, sane, excellent design decisions"), you can set a hard timeout… that can be flatly ignored by systemd for various reasons that might or might not be obvious. In that case it will happily show you <current timer> / <timeout>, then move to <current timer> / <timeout * 2>, and so on.

Because that, for some reasons, makes a lot of sense to some people that are not me.

A terrible idea that will hinder everyone and not serve it's original purpose in a flash.

  • anything that parse the page is broken, this includes screen reader, but also indexing, searching, and people that replace fonts locally for accessibility or other reasons
  • the "solution" for accessibility is pure trash
  • it can be trivially detected and reversed. I suspect LLM would be incredibly better at adapting to this than anything done manually too

It's basically a kid playing with "encrypshun" client-side, giving both the cipher and the key to the client and hoping it'll work. Or, as other put it, DRM that don't work for any of its original purpose, but create an additional layer of complexity and missing features, a common trend in modern projects.

Search engine going downhill is mostly a side effect of AI enshitification getting in the way. Even google, which people keep saying is "dying", works as well as before as long as you're not using their default page which is filled with AI garbage and other automated content.

Also, Large AI models from large provider doing a fair bit of actually useful work would have to be confronted with other way to do said work. People burning tokens to edit PDF isn't exactly that efficient compared to opening a god dawn editor.
