  • And from what I can tell based on the callout at the end… This is a line from connector which is a compatibility layer that allows running Fabric mods on Neoforge.

    Which means connector is going to be included in every stack trace, regardless of how related it is to the problem. It will be the one to raise the errors that couldn’t be caught and managed… But AI will see connector being the one probably flagging the errors and be more likely to tag it as a “suspected” mod. I wouldn’t be shocked to find out that AI has a tendency to shoot the messenger.

    I had 6 (3x 27" 16:9 monitors), and then wound up with a 34" 21:9 ultra wide for my middle monitor. The side monitors stopped fitting on the triple monitor arm I had, but just barely. Enough that turning the monitors portrait made them fit again… so I’m pretty close to 10 right now.









  • Amazon Sidewalk means that PiHole or AdGuard won’t stop anything, because the point of amazon sidewalk is that if a device can’t find a usable internet connection (ie, you didnt set up wifi, or you dont have wifi), it can still function by connecting to nearby open networks, or perhaps even someone just walking by with a phone that it can piggyback off of.

    So setting up a pihole prevents it from phoning home on your network, which will just prompt it to jump to another network potentially.

    The question is just “how aggressively does this device want to phone home?” Some devices will actively seek out ways to phone home if blocked, some devices will try to phone home and give up if blocked. Some devices don’t try to phone home at all.

    Not phoning home is ideal, a pihole will (probably) keep a device that stays on your network under control, and you should just not buy things that actively will work around your intentions to do whatever it wants without your permission.

    But this person has already bought the thing, so “dont buy it” isn’t an option. But “don’t use it” might be. Depending on which category it’s in. (which I do not know, just trying to illustrate the bigger problem with Amazon Sidewalk)






  • You don’t have to have been a slave to have dealt with racism. Enough people still get really excited about their confederate flags that clearly the era is still heavily topical.

    The word “confederate” means nothing beyond referring to a type of government, but when I hear it, I think immediately of the American civil war. Even though that ended in 1865 so I was never alive to witness that.

    That’s not how word associations work.


  • Yeah. theres a fine line between advocating for positive change because it’s the right thing to do vs because it makes you look good. Theres a fine line between being an ally and empty virtue signalling, and those things may not look different within the scope of a single interaction. It can sometimes take a bit to understand if someone is genuine or just performing.

    The point of political correctness is that it’s always things you’d never consider… but someone else does. I’m not here to say whether things are right or wrong or if “master” is good or bad. but you perfectly highlight the reasoning behind it.

    To you, the only thing that comes up is the technology context. And that’s perfectly reasonable. To someone else, the unrelated slave owning context may just be tightly coupled with that word, and that immediately comes to mind when they hear the word regardless of context. And someone in that scenario is probably not having a positive correlation with the word.

    So a group of people have a very understandable reason to have a negative correlation with the word, and it’s super easy to use a different word, so it seems to make sense to just use the other word.

    All my git scripts these days have a $(git remote show origin | sed -n '/HEAD branch/s/.*: //p') in them, which just fetches whatever origin calls the head branch. so if I want to rebase from main/master/prod/lead/front/etc … the command will figure out which one to use for me.
