yes that's still the current status afaik. freebsd did have a temp ban ~mid 2025 but seems to have been swept under the carpet, even some freebsd devs did not know about it. freebsd default filesystem is zfs which is developed in a tree shared with linux and other os, so slop gets pulled in that way. tmux allows slop so all os get that, unless they ship with screen instead i guess. llvm allows slop so all os get that, unless they compile with gcc, which so far has none, awaiting for some subcommittee to make the decision for them.

@tranquillity@mastodon.minionflo.net i think carbon monoxide binds more tightly to hemoglobin than O2 does. So if O2 level is normal that would imply no CO poisoning.

"Iranian armed forces, in the 24th wave of Operation "Nasr-2," struck at the central data processing infrastructure of Amazon in Bahrain, which is one of the key nodes for information exchange for the U.S. military.
The Amazon cloud region in Bahrain, known by the unique identifier me-south-1, is the company's first centralized data center in the Middle East, opened in 2019.
The Amazon facilities in Bahrain represent the main artery and intellectual center for processing information for Washington and its allies in the Persian Gulf.
Amazon is one of the four main contractors of the U.S. Department of Defense under the Joint Warfighting Cloud Capability (JWCC) contract, worth $9 billion. This contract allows the Pentagon to deploy cloud computing, data analytics, and artificial intelligence tools at the forefront of operations and regional military bases"

do u have two eyes? we if so, we have great news! our mobile browser now splits the screen into two 2cmx4cm squint portals! enough to display 1% of the information you need! simply train your eyes to stop focusing and thats 2% of the information you need, all at once! capitalism breeds innovation!
