Manuel Noriega might disagree...
There is no better way to proclaim to the world that you are an inhumane arsewipe than to block Doctors Without Borders.
The man's a real treasure.
Genau, und biste arm, dann stirbste halt.
Lynx is all the UI you need.
Ganz einfach: "Generative" KI ist in diesem Kontext billiger, wiedergekäuter Müll, um mehr Kohle zu bekommen.
That's right, reject science, accept stupidity.

While I think Wayland has some limitations compared to X11, I would not mind them for 99% of stuff I would want to do with it. If it worked for me. I tried to use it, wanted to like it, but it just did not like me. Maybe I have the wrong GPU, but it just never worked. For my next build, I will get an AMD GPU and see if it works then.
Yeah, that looks like oak processionaries. They can cause skin irritation and apparently asthma, too..

I have experienced something similar. I run a small forum for a computer games series, a series I myself have not been interested in a long time. I am just running it because the community has no other place to go, and they seem to really enjoy it.
A few months ago, I received word from them that the forum barely responded anymore. I checked it out and noticed there were several hundred active connections at any time, something we have never seen before. After checking the whois info on the IPs, I realized they were all connected to meta, google, apple, microsoft and other AI companies.
It felt like a coordinated DDoS attack and certainly had almost the same effect. Now, I have a hosting contract where I pay a flat monthly fee for a complete server and any traffic going through it, so it was not a problem financially speaking, but those AI bots made the server almost unusable. Naturally, I went ahead and blocked all the crawler IPs that I could find, and that relieved the pressure a lot, but I still keep finding new ones.
Fuck all of those companies, fuck the lot of them. All they do is rob and steal and plunder, and leave charred ruins. And for what? Fan fiction. Unbelievable.
