Oh FFS, #mozilla #firefox "improved" the UI again.

All I want from a browser is rendering webpages, efficiently and with minimal memory and compute expenditure. The UI shall be minimal and get out of the way.

Why does the tabbar require gradients and "tabs" that no longer render as tabs, but something different?

Oh FFS… one of the higher ups at my place of work (biophysics and optics) was asking me, if I was willing to give a seminar on #AI and how to effectively use it. For context: I'm surrounded by sloperators; even my boss has become addicted.

The number of times I'm told "you could be so much more productive, if you just used AI" (no I wouldn't because I don't measure productivity in LoC).

Anyway, if I'm going to give that seminar, it's going to be a "don't use #slopbots" angle.

Hier ging vor ein paar Tagen der Link auf eine Website herum, auf der man verschiedene Kombinationen von (neuen) #Steuern ein- und ausschalten kann und dann ausgerechnet und angezeigt bekommt, wie sich das auf den #Bundeshaushalt #Deutschlands auswirkt.

Hat wer die URL parat?

Ich habe das Gefühl, es wird Zeit die Bank zu wechseln. Zitat aus der e-Mail:

"Wir laden Sie herzlich zu unserem Webinar zu Kryptowährungen ein." 😬

Für mich liest sich das wie: "Unsere Führungsetage hat sich von dem Hype blenden lassen, und jetzt suchen wir Sucker denen wir den Schrott den wir hier auf Halde liegen haben andrehen können."

Genossenschaftsbanken sind auch nicht mehr das, was sie Mal waren...

A primary feature of interactive LLMs – and part of their "success" – is that they build linguistic bypass channel around cognitive filters (present) in their users' minds. Irrational thoughts (or even just nucleation seeds for such) are amplified and fed back to their users' minds without the filter mechanisms that evolved over millions of years having a chance to attenuate.

Lack of such internal cognition filters is a key element of being afflicted with schizophrenia.

I wish we here in Germany could adopt this mentality.

But as it is, even the most well meaning attempts at "improving" bicycle are haphazard, any may even be worse, than was before.

Take my home city of Lübeck for example. They're no finally (with a 5 year delay) building the new cycle-expressway. Unfortunately they completely misunderstood the "continuous sidewalk" portion of the assignment. "car-brain pacifying" adjustments were made, which IMHO endanger cyclists.

Is there a simple way (i.e. not patching the kernel or similar funny business) to make the Linux Suspend-to-Disk hibernation turn off the computer as with a system shutdown poweroff. I.e. I don't want it to wake up from hitting a key on an input device; only actuating the power button should start it up again.

Since I also want to use Suspend-to-RAM (standby), waking up using input device key-press disabling the Wake-on-X in UEFI config isn't the option here.
