Some sweet older ladies used to work for the NSA like my grandma, and she only had me get rid of her Linux mint partition because she wasn’t using it much
Death to fascism. End the state, promote happiness, break all cages. Love yer brain -wear a mask!

My computer science teachers were all over 70 and *nix users, that’s the generation that created a lot of computer stuff we use to this day.
If you don’t block ads and you type things into searches about alcohol you will indeed get a lot of alcohol ads. The thing is though, I never got them as frequently when I was still drinking, or maybe never noticed them. Also I once got served ads for beer on a page about quitting booze lol, it seems pretty intentional even though it’s most likely not that targeted.
I know that on some shoots like In The Cut they sometimes ran out of herbal smokes and people had to smoke real cigs and hated it
Nobody seems to mention that these barriers are designed to slip and pull people down so they thrash down into the netting at the bottom that is designed to trap them, then they drown. The “deterrent” that they post signs warning about only on the American side, is death.

Unless I’m mistaken I would say that it’s the other way around, Morse code is more like a human readable machine language expressed in binary because the 26 character alphabet is expressed in different binary values, much like ASCII.
This is a weird meme to me. Have you ever made something like a simple accumulator machine out of logic gates, OP? You literally just program them in binary, although usually the instructions are expressed in hexadecimal. You make your own instruction set. When we did ours in Compsci foundations I just decided that 0x06 was going to be my jump at negative instruction. I could have wired the logic so that instruction was at a different value, it’s literally possible to make your own instruction set, then your own assembly language, and then your own compiler, and your own programming language. People, mostly women at first, did this for every new computer their institution built at first.
Some of the industry specific ones like supply chain or logistics or even insurance were fun to lurk, and get a sense of what people in the industry think of those outside it
This is a thing already, I almost never get alcohol ads until I post about trying to be sober.
I had the same journey but I’m pretty sure I found Slashdot by way of boingboing which I found by way of Diesel Sweeties blog posts when I first got a DSL connection in 2002 and was looking for comics and blogs to fill up my trendy new RSS reader lol
