Hello Hotel

I agree. It leads to problems of its own.

I found This on the same site as @mosiacmango@lemm.ee. Doesn’t sound 100% like their intent (unless whatever is “next” is a place to fill out personal details). However loading a webpage is enherantly at least a little bit risky.

It’s a programing term that comes from the phrase “shooting yourself in the foot”. Come to think about it, a loaded gun is a great example of safety mechinisms.

Theres two ways of looking at safe systems,

• People are idiots and will get themselves hurt. The machine should prevent them to keep them safe at all costs.

Or

• without guardrails, people are vulnerable idiots and I am too. Let the machine prevent them until they understand and accept the risk.

As memtioned elsewhere in the thread, political pressure prevents implementation of safe systems. I absolutely love safeguards and being safe because foot guns are nasty. (Its why Rust is a great language.) but I will fight against things clearly created under the former philosophy because it locks people out of their own property. Because sometimes the “safety” is an excuse for controlling behavor.

For me there are programs that “can acceptably use that much RAM” and those that it’s “unacceptable”, to me. what’s 20% to 40% of my gaming rig’s resources may be uncomfortably taxing and laggy for my laptop. Its okay to waste resources on my gaming rig but the laptop needs all it can get. I accept some software will not reasonably run on the laptop. My employer has stuck me on 10yo hardware before, running windows 10 pro + intrusive expensive antivirus and nobody is around to question why their computers are getting 5-15fps and locking up for a minute or two when you open chrome. It becomes normal. Any software is the host and/or backbone for other running software should focus on reducing it’s own resource usage for the sake of its children.

Where are these from and why do they only get nonsensical end post at.

The motivation for this is baffling to me! Being anti-homeless apathetic and trans makes no sense. Pandering using the (widely kown) trans flag rather than the (universally known by even the most sheltered) gay pride flag makes no sense. Only guess is it was spraypainted by someone else

Thats painful to read
