Microwaves are very energy heavy. This isn’t very reassuring at all.

As long as billionaires are campaigning to destroy it, there is no place for that comment you made.

I don’t like touch screens, or screens in general. I miss Minidisc so much. It was and is the absolute best for me.

The iPod with the click wheel would be my next choice but they’re too expensive now. CD cases were cumbersome, and when lined up it’s hard to read the spines. They skip too when I’m walking.

I’d go back to cassettes again if they were released to the same standard as back in the day (Dolby NR, etc). I like handling the cases and they look better lined up on a shelf.

I want to start using your “PBBM” instead of “LLM”.

Most of the applications I use host their code on GitHub. I’m actively looking for replacements for as many of them as possible, because it’s just immoral to participate with Microsoft, IMO.

But that’s a poor article. A more accurate headline might be “Concerns about GitHub’s parent company, Microsoft”. But that wouldn’t generate the same attention.

And I appreciate the respectful response. “Support” means “contributes to” when I use it. My car does contribute to climate change. The thing is, GitHub is a choice. For some people, driving isn’t a choice due to lack of public transport and distance to work. However if I use my car when there is plentiful public services (but I just like to hear my music at full volume in my car), then that is a choice.

So if I’m driving when I have better options, then my actions do support climate change, and I do so knowingly.

I don’t know if you read the articles I linked or not, but there is a stark lack of empathy in replies like this: full of self interest, void of humanity.

Devs are free to choose other platforms. They don’t face death or famine for doing so. Oppressed people cannot choose their oppressors. If genocide isn’t a red line for you then you have no red lines.
