That, and he’s not saying “Will, you need to go do good math.” He’s saying that if he’s still here in 20(?) years, he’ll fucking kill him. And that’s because he recognizes Will, thanks to his extreme intellect (which we see isn’t nearly limited to math), can go wherever he wants and do basically whatever he wants. He recognizes that unlike himself, Will chooses to stay there because he’s living in fear of the unknown – that people will hurt him, something he doesn’t have to worry about with his three Southie friends.

He’s talking about emotional growth and self-actualization for Will, recognizing that staying stuck in the place where he grew up and was brutally abused is keeping him trapped, because that’s where he feels “safe”.

I know this is a joke, but it’s completely misrepresenting the scene to get there, and it doesn’t even seem like obviously ironic misrepresentation.

Edit: IIRC, he doesn’t even say that he needs to leave Boston, just that Will still hanging around with them would be the problem.

I was so fucking confused when I thought I saw Giancarlo Esposito in the middle.

By the way, I’m bisexual, I forgot

Maybe Israel finally escaped her dreams.

She’s putting country and party over country and party, where she’s putting Israel over America and the victory party she thought she deserved over the Democratic Party.

Yes! Might as well take some free energy by converting the free energy into me energy.

I missed the second “don’t” and was about to call in an airstrike.

But what if the soap was…

For context, this is a shitpost subversion of another image that’s been making the rounds comparing Connery with a baby-face actor who really is 33.

Someone probably definitely put this up as reverse psychology.

I have no mouth and I must hrrnng.

The parties that discovered CVE-2026-97631—Alex Matrosov of Anthropic and Dan Holmes of Google—had arranged for it to stay under wraps until a coordinated disclosure that was scheduled for January. AMI, a maker of motherboards and other hardware, published this pull request last month that detailed the vulnerability and included a code fix. Once the post came to the attention of the discovering parties, TianoCore Project members published a public advisory last week.

Hot take: botched disclosures like this should open a company to criminal liability. We need to start treating SWE with the same level of scrutiny we do other engineering fields and not “oopsie poopsie, I accidentally just disclosed an attack that endangers global infrastructure.”

Edit: Also, just of fucking course it’s a buffer overflow in C code. “No way to prevent this, says only nation where this regularly happens” vibes.

I think it’s a complex piece about access to mental healthcare in the US.

I wish I did. :(

I’ve never heard anything about this. In fact, I’ve never heard of overlays on CoMaps generally. My only guess is that maybe the rumor is related to OsmAnd, which does let you create custom overlays given a URL source.

I only use CoMaps on desktop, which is to say not very often, so I’m a lot less familiar with it. Sorry!

You can help too!!

Check out DeFlock, and by all means, come join us on OpenStreetMap. It looks like about 400–500 cameras have been added in the last few days.

If there’s anything I can personally do to help you (yes, you, reading this) get involved with OSM – even just a pep talk – I’ll do whatever I can. There are a million different ways you can help, regardless of if you’re in Paris reading the WikiHow for heisting the Louvre or stranded in the wilderness using your last five minutes of battery to browse Lemmy.

You of all people talking about other people enjoying their echo chamber is goddamn hilarious given the one you moderate.

As though somone blaming Ukraine for “refusing to negotiate peace” has any room to speak on “inconvenient truths”.

Active functioning search engine website “OFFICIAL LAUNCHES” - Google: August 1998 Yandex: 23 September 1997

What on Earth is this link supposed to show? Did you just expect that nobody would check it?

In August 1998, Sun co-founder Andy Bechtolsheim wrote Larry and Sergey a check for $100,000, and Google Inc. was officially born. With this investment, the newly incorporated team made the upgrade from the dorms to their first office: a garage in suburban Menlo Park, California, owned by Susan Wojcicki (employee #16 and former CEO of YouTube). Clunky desktop computers, a ping pong table, and bright blue carpet set the scene for those early days and late nights.

This once again establishes that Google Inc. came about in August 1998, not that Google Search did. Google Search existed in 1997; it was a registered, functioning website with a web search engine.

Edit: Huh, I see it’s a bit more complicated. Google Search was available at google.stanford.edu during 1997. Which is still a functioning domain that uses Google Search to index the web.

Edit 2: Unrelated to this, the fact the first version of the Google logo was created in GIMP is so quaint. TIL

Double nope.

Google was officially launched in 1998 by Larry Page and Sergey Brin to market Google Search, [emphasis mine] which has become the most used web-based search engine.

Google Search had already existed since the domain was registered. (EDIT: See comments below. I don’t know that this is true. It seems google.stanford.edu was up as a functioning web search engine in 1997, but this is getting murky.) You’re talking about Google Inc. the company which was created in 1998. Google Search was launched in 1997.

However, by that comparison, it’s vastly less close, as Yandex LLC was first legally registered 14 September 2000.

TL;DR: You were comparing apples to oranges.

Search website:

• Google: 15 September 1997
• Yandex: 23 September 1997

Legally registered company:

• Google Inc.: 1998
• Yandex LLC: 14 September 2000

Edit: And to clarify, I think the sensible metric here, that works in Yandex’s favor by bringing the two within eight days of each other instead of approximately two years, is to use the date their search engine websites launched and were functioning, not when they filed paperwork that said “We’re legally a company now 🥳”.
