We just released v8.2.0! 🥳

This version brings the ability to:
⏯️ seek within and pause the live
👥 transfer channel ownership to another user
✂️ remove segments of a video in Studio

The UX has also been improved!

More details in the dedicated blog note: https://joinpeertube.org/news/release-8.2

Colleague: My computer is broken! I had an NVidia error and typed this command that Claude said I must type!

Me: That doesn't look right. And before removing the packages, you should've been prompted with a "Yes, do what I say!" prompt to protect you.

Colleague: It did!

Me: So why did you do it?

Colleague: Because Claude said so!

I got >< this close to telling her "If Claude told you to jump off a cliff would you also do it!?", thankfully my self-control is slightly better these days.

@bagder @steinarb I had this on my iPod, it was *great*!

Fascinating interview with Bjarne Stroustop - Creator of the C++ language.

Covering topics ranging from technical issues, memory safety issues, dealing with standards bodies and politics, funding, marketing, AI, and more.

The interviewer also does a good job of listening and letting Bjarne actually explain things, which I appreciate a lot!

@david_chisnall @i0null Why? Everything already effectively runs as root there.

Just noticed that FreeBSD has a new website.

They increasingly look like a project that is really getting their shit together.

Nice work!

@ptesarik Yeah we were promised that a constant stream of vulnerabilities were going to emerge. Either the kernel was mos rubust than we thought all along, or the AI agents are slacking doing who knows what.

Remember 100 years ago when radiation was new and exciting and poorly understood, and companies were putting radiation into everything?

Thankfully we learned our lesson and will never make that mistake again.

Don’t call it age verification. Call it centralised personal data collection. And understand that it serves surveillance, not safety for children.

@nuintari @pugmiester It's insane and I just don't understand it. I have to deal with similar crap at work now because some sales people bamboozled a manager.

@kevinbowen People who are new to Linux and enjoying it can enjoy it. What's boring is highly subjective, if someone is enjoying sharing their experience, let them!

“It’s inevitable” often means “we’re doing this against your will and without requiring consent because we’re in a position of power”

@Skye @jacqueline That sounds about right, yes.

@tzafrir The $100 is to become part of the co-op. You can buy albums from the website without joining the co-op.

TIL subvert.fm - a co-op based music platform that has just launched. It looks really promising.

@owen Wow. RIP GitLab.

@daniel All US tech is now a serious liability, it sounds like hyperbole but it would take a lot these days to convince me otherwise.

@zhenech GamePad!
