We can adapt and the process of doing that in capitalism involves prices rising and rising until people can’t afford things and stop buying them, thus reducing demand.

That’s super tough on people who don’t have much money and they don’t consume much anyway so when they tap out it doesn’t reduce demand much. So prices need to rise enough to hurt the middle class in developed countries, meaning the lower classes everywhere else have a really shit time.

Meanwhile there are some oil uses that are completely unable to be reduced, such as emergency services, food distribution, etc so the govt will intervene in the market to ensure that happens. This means all non-essential sectors of the economy must reduce usage by significantly more than 20%.

Meanwhile every country’s govt is doing everything it can to try to lock in 100% of their usual supply and some will succeed, leaving other countries to make much bigger cuts than 20%.

There will be lots of people making 100% cuts while a few make none. Humanity isn’t great at sharing especially at a global level.

A very entertaining read. I’m completely unsurprised, based on my experience trying to use Azure. Garbage platform.

And now they’re hacking on that shitshow with CoPilot. Jesus wept.

Yes might as well do that too.

Nice to hear :)

FYI I’ve added ‘Random community’ to the Communities menu, right at the end.

More info at https://health.aws.amazon.com/health/status

Not any more - https://www.reddit.com/r/help/comments/1fojw02/cleaning_up_some_lowusage_features/

I opted for /r/ because there might be a community called ‘random’ one day.

The link https://piefed.social/r/random was a bit broken until just now, try again.

piefed.social detects and labels LLM-generated posts, including the content of the link.

Like this one - https://piefed.social/c/selfhosted/p/1908035/onyx-self-hosted-messenger-with-lan-mode-and-e2ee-an-indie-project-story

Mods can manually detect AI comments too, like this:

In this case I chose to take no action (that guy probably won’t be back after posting his promo post anyway) but if they are persistent they get banned.

That’s where the text of my comment has a link to https://lemmy.zip/post/61737842 and PieFed automatically turns it into https://piefed.social/c/fediverse/p/1937345/i-m-still-new-to-the-fediverse-what-are-your-favorite-unique-things-that-your-instance because I’m using piefed.social. Viewers of my comment on piefed.zip get whatever the piefed.zip url is.

If you installed or updated Claude Code via npm on March 31, 2026, between 00:21 and 03:29 UTC, you may have inadvertently pulled in a malicious version of axios (1.14.1 or 0.30.4) that contains a Remote Access Trojan (RAT). You should immediately search your project lockfiles (package-lock.json, yarn.lock, or bun.lockb) for these specific versions or the dependency plain-crypto-js. If found, treat the host machine as fully compromised, rotate all secrets, and perform a clean OS reinstallation.

Lol 😂

I don’t know. Last I saw was a PR languishing for years.

This is an attempt to work around the lack of support for groups in Mastodon.

Anyone who wants tags.pub to be a thing should just use the threadiverse instead.

I couldn’t get past the second level :(

And then there’s the helium supply shortage, on top of that - https://www.techspot.com/news/111683-critical-semiconductor-gas-lost-third-global-supply-drone.html

I am employed by a tiny software dev shop that develops a few apps used in education. No AI at all, unless I proactively choose to and pay for it out of my own pocket.

All those things are on the ‘Explore’ menu.

Without reading the article I knew it would be Terrorgram.
