CNET reviews via the Wayback Machine (1996-12-21), "11 HTML editors for easy Web pages": web.archive.org/web/1996122107

About 50 KB per page, including graphics. Yeah, those pages are HTML 2 or 3 with CSS None, but it's just as easy to redo in HTML 5 with CSS 3 while keeping the same presentation, improving accessibility, and not bloating beyond about 50 KB per page, including CSS and graphics.

This was the World Wide Web we threw away for browser-heavy frameworks.

‘It’s not GPLwashing! It’s not GPLwashing!’ I insist as my LLM carefully reproduces another project’s code line-for-line and says it’s not copyright infringement because it changed the capitalization

@mavica_again This bites me way too often on FreeBSD, too. I end up having to search for binaries and manpages post-install.

freebsd$ pkg info -l techbrotool-by-techbro-tool | grep -w -e bin -e sbin -e man

debian$ dpkg -L techbrotool-by-techbro-tool | grep -w -e bin -e sbin -e man

Has a coal-huffing, water-guzzling city-sized chatbot masquerading as AI recommended buying stock in the extremely lucrative South Sea Company yet?

Just read an article detailing how Microsoft executives are confused and upset that people don't appreciate their AI features and don't like people giving them shit about them on Twitter. "How are people not impressed with this stuff?"

Fellas, have you used the internet lately? It's fucked. Have you used Windows? Fucked. It's shit. People are sick of it being shit, because it didn't used to be as shit as this. You've gone and fucked everything, that's why people aren't happy with you.

I will not talk with a chatbot
I do not want it while I shop

I do not want it on Windows X-box
I do not want it in Firefox

I do not want it in my house
I do not want it on my mouse
I do not want it here or there
I do not want it anywhere.

I do not want AI and Spam
I do not want them Sam-Alt-Man

@mavica_again IKR. I love how the recommended action is also the ethically correct one.

@mavica_again There's this one in the Debian Wiki, also about as old, but for IRC specifically: wiki.debian.org/GettingHelpOnI

@mavica_again The only one I know of is the one written by the toxic ESR stream in '01 and revised until '14. His website gives me a hilarious SSL error, so here's a random GitHub fork of it instead: github.com/selfteaching/How-To
