Dubrovnik port - just an ordinary day

Updated This Past Day

  1. LinuxSecurity (Guardian Digital, Inc) Sloppy With Its 'Linux' Slop
    This kind of stuff is killing the World Wide Web and ruins human knowledge
  2. Loss of Technical Merit(ocracy)
    "buzzword diplomas"

    New

  3. [Meme] Chin-dropping and Jaw-dropping (Considerable Drop in Patent Validity and Quality)
    This drop is very much intentional
  4. Gemini Links 10/10/2024: Untruth, SSH, Gopher, and More
    Links for the day
  5. Geminispace Beyond 4,100 Capsules

    Links for the day
  7. [Meme] European Patent Convention and Vienna Convention Became Only Fictions (Laws and Constitutions Are Now Works of Fiction in Europe)
    A political crisis and blunder
  8. Almost a Thousand EPO Staff Protesting to EPO Member States That the Office Illegally Grants Software Patents and Other Invalid European Patents

  9. Junk Science
    science is being compromised for business purposes

  12. This Year, for the First Time Since August 2019 (Bill Gates MIT Scandal, Jeffrey Epstein Bribes), libreplanet-discuss Was Inactive an Entire Month

    UNIX in old movies
  14. Evolution of Hype
