Experiencing nondualism randomly throughout each day has changed everything for me

I hope they follow this up with a “we need to talk about prohibition” video because that is where the most harm resides. All drugs have downsides, but treating them as a justice issue rather than a health issue harms everyone.

Where’s the enshittification in macOS?

I also went into NextDNS and put blocks on the news sites I got into the habit of checking. Fuck this, I’m not even in the US.

That was my thought too.

Just yesterday I banned Facebook’s user agent that is supposedly only used to generate link previews. It was being extremely aggressive, making 20 requests per second. At the time I thought “I bet they’re actually building their own search index”, and here we are.

I haven’t read wired in a few years, and it looks like I haven’t missed anything.

Daily Mail?

Brass Eye was incredible for shining a light on media and political hysteria. Their episode on drugs was hilarious and tragic.

I don’t think it’s earned by Murdoch, but otherwise agree with the sentiment.

It’s not fine. They are not archiving the internet.

I had to ban their user agent after very aggressive scraping that would have taken down our servers. Fuck this shitty behaviour.

2027 is a sunrise date, meaning retailers are expected to have updated their checkouts to support scanning the 2D Barcodes.

Industry has set a date to make the transition to accepting 2D barcodes at point-of-sale (POS) or point-of-care (POC) — referred to as Sunrise 2027. By the end of 2027, retailers would need to ensure their POS systems are equipped with scanners capable of reading both traditional barcodes and 2D barcodes. The shift has already begun with the new technology being tested in 48 countries across the world, representing 88% of the world’s GDP.

I sell GTINs in multiple countries that are already trialing 2D barcodes.

Oh, it is. GS1 are driving it and by 2027 all retailers around the world are expected to be able to scan the QR code at checkout instead of a traditional barcode image.

GS1 call it 2D Barcode. It’s a QR code that embeds a GTIN https://www.gs1.org/industries/retail/2D-barcodes

the embedded link goes to a resolver, the functionality of which they have released so anyone can build their own resolver system.

They’re replacing the ol’ EAN / UPC barcode on products too starting in 2027. IBN Link

After the edibles kick in

Are they? The Subprime AI Crisis

What kind of dosage? I like 50mg THC.

I feel so seen

The charges this guy is facing are insane.

Ah, the 3DO. So much hype from Trip Hawkins.

Me too. I was about to post the same image.
