This all feels moot anyway. Some people have claimed you can pay with crypto or cash, but I don't see that option anywhere 🤷

There's no need to know any technical details: I use my card with my name on it to pay for a service, it's beyond obvious authorities will be able to get that info and identify me if they so want.

Well of course, because the logical progression from "people should realise the obviousness of using their personal bank card for a service will make them identifiable as a user of that service" to "people should get arrested for fighting against authoritarianism in the US" is clear.

But on the topic at hand: if you can't figure out that giving a business your personally identifiable payment method may lead to you being personally identified from their records later, well...

Because a 5 year old can understand you don't drink bleach.
And who are these mythical people who can't identify bleach? I won't hold my breath because they don't exist.

Interestingly cryptographic nonce and prison slang nonce emerged at roughly the same time (mid to late 1970s)

You know what's also a bad look? Doubling down on misunderstanding what Proton have taken umbrage with.
How difficult is this to comprehend: THE HEADLINE WAS CLICKBAIT. Nothing I've read suggest they think the story itself is wrong, again: IT'S. THE. HEADLINE.

What Does Nonce Mean? – The Word Counter Have you ever heard of the term nonce? Read here for a complete guide to the meaning of nonce so you never have to wonder.

I love these kind of interactions online when I *think* I know something, but it turns out it's a bit deeper than what my surface knowledge was.
I was basically wrong with the "nonsense" derivation: thewordcounter.com/meaning-of-n...

And this is why we need "Do not drink" labels on bleach bottles.

Had a similar reaction the first time I came across that too 🤣😭💀
I think it was coined by an American, short for "nonsense" iirc. Obviously they had no clue about the British meaning.

*you're 🤦

It appears to me you have extensive domain knowledge with Reaktor. Maybe you have comparable software engineering knowledge? But unless it's just a toy project, using LLMs to write software if you have no idea what your doing ends badly.

Why is everyone jumping through as many mental hoops as possible to miss the point entirely here? The Click-bait headline is the issue. It really doesn't matter what the article says, because no-one reads them. They read the headline and grab their pitchforks. 🤦

Amazing! Kudos to @josss-sss.bsky.social

Fairly sure I have a stack of old Crash mags trapped 1500km away in my Mum's garage along with my 48k rubber key Spectrum, a C64C, two A500s and a custom paint job A1200. One day I'll manage to reunite with them before they've become trash I hope!

I used to argue that they were like the Reebok ERS for playing games like Daley Thompson's Decathlon 😆

My arse was freezing at the avant-garde hairdressers. I got a bold cut.

I love #spoonerisms

Or @h0ffman.bsky.social ?

It's beautiful underground!

Also I imagine it's not beyond the realm of impossibility that the next version of Windows could jump, and say if next year was the release it would be "Windows 27".

Crunchy Moles?

Luckily most support queries come from *very* knowledgeable users who suggest the potential fix I need to implement. 🙏 But that would change with more people using "Linux".

I do this, the tricky bit is being a very small fry developer means it's difficult to provide support for "Linux", because it's not just a single target, but a huge playing field.

I have a friend who suffers from paranoid schizophrenia and they loved the invention of the mobile phone since it allowed them to talk back to their voices in a socially acceptable way.

Bitwig works, it's not such a big leap from Live, but of course there's the cost to deal with 😞 The other issue is plugin support (I make mine support it, bit there's a big gap)

So i guess when Windows 11 reaches EOL Linux will finally have its time. SteamOS will cover gamers hopefully.

For a while that's just J then symbol-shift-P twice, then wait... I kind of feel for today's kids who won't learn programming by osmosis typing in games from magazines.

There's a specific joy in powering on a 44-year-old computer and seeing that inverse K cursor blinking at you. It doesn't want your password. It doesn't need an update. It just wants you to type something. Anything. Go on.

Don't worry, I also indie dev in relative chaos 🤣

How's things progressing @specnext.com? Was hoping that given 26th Feb was a "milestone" for the RPi delivery we might have a further update shortly afterwards. Trying to be patient, but really *really* want to play with a new toy! 🥹
