@sinituulia Kind of already doing this (preserving old printed materials) -- but unfortunately it involves much usage of the thinking sand...
@GhostOnTheHalfShell (with apologies to...) Please stop anthropomorphizing Republicans. They're not sentient and they can't actually think, especially not about the real-world effects of public policy...
@naga Ahh, yeah, I actually started at the youthfully exuberant age of 51. Remember there's always electrolysis and laser! ⚡️
@naga I'm not sure whether it does that or just goes away and leaves only vellus hair behind; I just know from personal experience.
Caveat:
On the one hand, I never had a whole lot of body-hair to begin with; on the other hand, HRT took much longer to produce a couple of other effects that are more often talked about. Hopefully the net differential will end up working in your favor ;-)
@naga HRT should help with the body-hair; it just may take awhile...
Please stop anthropomorphizing AI company executives.
They're not sentient and they can't actually think. They just predict token sequences using statistical patterns scraped from LinkedIn, X and the Financial Times. The apparent "understanding" is simply a parlor trick: They produce text strings that *sound* plausible, but they don't actually have any understanding of the world.
I'll grant that they became a lot more technically impressive when Reinforcement Learning from Investor Sentiment pipelines were introduced, but fundamentally they're still just stochastic bullshit generators. Running them in a loop and giving them access to the internet will end up being the most expensive mistake in the history of technology.
@miaura Looks to me like the old look, just the "default" view rather than the multicolumn... are there differences I'm missing?

@Ascendor Yeah, it's a little unclear. The mitigation instructions in the sansec.io link talk about disabling uploads at the httpd level, so maybe PHP simply not accepting files isn't enough.
(I absolutely don't have the time to go through all fifty-leven of my PHP sites and add that code to the vconfig for each of them, so... I'll let you know if I find out I've been hacked! 😅)
Update: apparently the bug happens before any of the site-code gets executed, which is why you have to deny uploads at the site level.

My understanding of the #PHPsecurity issue1 is that it exploits uploads -- but if your site doesn't allow public uploads (and you trust all the users who have that ability), I think that means you're safe?

Oops... I started this post as a reply, then changed my mind and made it a top-level post... I thought... but apparently I forgot to restart the edit in order to make that happen, and it's still attached to Kushal's. Seems like there ought to be a way to retroactively detach posts, but oh well.
@devopscats If you ever do start collecting them, I could make a page on Issuepedia for them. I think there's already a "stochastic violence" page.
@anubis2814 Now I don't feel so bad. I had almost the same experience with my last job -- inconstant part-time hours, declining erratically over many months until finally "we don't see a role for you, moving forward" (despite me seeing at least a couple of roles that nobody else was filling).
I think even teenage-me, heavily steeped in hard SF, would have looked at that cartoon and thought something along the lines of "uh, wut?" ...like, what is that even trying to represent?
This explains why we are always doing things for The Time Being.
(...which in turn explains why tasks are always larger once you get into them than they appeared from the outside.)
