Of course they’re my own opinions, that’s why they’re downvoted so hard.

Oh boy a docker container from a new account that logs into all my bank accounts and then accesses them from my own IP, where do i sign up /s

Xitter was kind of doing the same thing: I can’t see anything my mom posts, but I definitely have to see everything Elon’s mom does.

X actually kinda solved this. You have 3 tabs which solve all use cases IMO

- For you: Fully algorithmic, shows stuff even from people you don't follow

- Following (recently): Chronological posts from people you follow

- Following (popular): Algorithmic ordering just from people you follow

Is this an alternate front-end (Nitter) or shorthand for X/Twitter?

The latter.

And the X is pronounced like “sh.”

I usually call it Xshitter

The X is pronounced "sh".

the two places they come in handy:

1) in the event you find yourself partially or totally disabled but the records don’t really make a good case for it and your provider has a dismissive attitude about filling out additional documentation to substantiate what they failed to in your records.

You’re not necessarily going to get approved for FMLA, STD, LTD, SS etc based on a diagnosis or test results alone. They will nitpick over say, heart failure, as if that’s magically and spontaneously going to go away. If you’re telling your provider that you’re limited by things like oh I don’t know, “I’m only awake for 2-4 hours before I need to sleep again” or “some days I just can’t do it and sleep 20 hours” but it’s not in your chart… expect denials and clarifications and a huge burden on you to prove why it’s limiting.

2) continuity of care, so you don’t end up explaining everything from the top to a specialist or having them run all these tests and procedures from square one — when there’s months long backlogs , and we already did all this and you need treatment - but - there wasn’t much to work with in your referring chart.

You might not appreciate the “intrusion” if you’re healthy and just worried about your privacy.

If/When things go south and you find yourself fighting these entities for a year or two or three while they nitpick and delay and deny and drag their feet , you’ll be glad an “AI” kept up meticulous records because this is phenomenally stressful and an endless burden on you when they don’t.

So, their AI slop can vomit out all this extra info on why insurance companies should pay them or why your condition is in fact disabling, and now their AI slop can comb through it looking for all that. Because they will try to avoid paying or approving any kind of leave or benefits if it’s not there

And god forbid you hand them a form where they’re being asked to explain themselves. 50/50 on them being eager to help out or rolling their eyes and saying something really nasty about the imposition. And then even when they do that, they almost never file a copy in your chart so your chart STILL doesn’t substantiate your claims. I’m all for an “ai” doing the progress notes in a case where the facility or provider can’t be fucked to do so.

Happily that’s not true of my current provider, who just, does that anyway (?) But I’ve been around enough to know they’re an exception. Even when providers are on your side and mean well, and want to bend over backwards to help you in any way they can — and I want to just acknowledge that’s the situation I’m in today — honestly , sometimes they just forget some of the details when they do their notes.

That’s why some places make the provider do it in real time while they’re talking to you, so they didn’t forget something relevant thirty minutes later. The other side of the coin here may be that some providers find that distracting or off putting to be typing away like a stenographer while they’re examining you…

I think it would be fair to say this can all be tedious and a burden for both patients and providers. There’s just a world of difference between a provider who wants to do this to provide excellency in care, and a provider who wants to do this because they resent it and think it’s beneath them.

its in the daily builds. I haven't tried it yet.

not sure if this confirms the impression you have there... I wasn't like this until a couple of headless VPS'es (on Arm8) got through the upgrade from 18.x -> 20.x -> 22.x and then crashed out over -> 24.x for a still unknown reason. now I'm just afraid .. or I should say reluctant ..to repeat that whole fiasco.

There were some issues with how the menu icon manager handled the new security policy defaults. This means the editor will break, and the displayed menu may be missing any item that didn't follow the naming convention syntax. Its a lot of packages to bring into compliance, for that one silly feature the devs had to put in before it was ready...

Maybe they fixed it since the rc release, but there were some rough edges in Feb... the kernel USB support cooked the thumb drive partition structure.

In 22.04 to 24.04 the kernel Nvidia GPU driver EOL abandonment began... In 26.04 people will discover most EOL hardware support prior to RTX series will be difficult to bring up.

Probably wise to wait a few weeks for the bug reports to clear out a bit. =3

that’s a wasted click and three seconds of my life I’ll never get back.

sorry you feel that way. are you a business owner with a web presence?

But I was only following orders!

>Johnny is shot dead by officers responding to a maniac with a fire axe who broke into an LA hotel and was screaming about space aliens.

I’m pretty sure LAPD is too used to this sort of thing to get spooked by it?

They'll shoot you for much less.
