@glyph the future is okay, actually. Holler if you hit problems, maybe I can help.
@genehack problem 1 seems to be that emacs can no longer open sockets on macOS Tahoe at all, which makes installing the relevant packages a fun challenge

@GroupNebula563 @glyph that's how cooling works, yes
@RichiH @GroupNebula563 @glyph
Why can't they do that with sea water then recondense that evaporated water as desalinated rain to provide drinking water to a community or irrigate a desert or something? -

@AlsoCrowie it is indeed
@GroupNebula563 @AlsoCrowie my point was that only any drained or evaporated water is actually used up. Anything in a cooling pipe is constant and stable for years

The higher your temperature difference going in and the lower your temperature difference going out, the cheaper it is to get rid of heat

@glyph woof, I haven’t made the jump on any laptops, that sounds …incredibly bad.

@genehack I have been reluctant to make this leap https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/local-network-access-nightmare.2448144/page-2 but I think it might be time

@RichiH @AlsoCrowie correct. however, my reply was a joke and should be taken at face value only /nm

@glyph that looks like …look, maybe you have some time off coming up, given the upcoming holidays and all?
I would do that shit, like, the day before you come back. Maybe the day of. Don’t fuck with that now, just bounce for the reminder of the year, is what I’m sayin.

@glyph I feel that.
I'm clinging to Aquamacs Emacs wich is stuck on *checks note* Emacs 25… -

@genehack the whole LNP access control thing is objectively a great security feature, but in terms of completeness and manageability, it has, shall we say, "big Wayland energy" https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/762917?answerId=802046022#802046022

@genehack fuck it we ball, there has been some slowly decaying state in this file for the last year or so for me, and I'd rather just rip off the band-aid and see if I can get back to a working state here. it *will* be kinda disappointing if it still doesn't work after the reset, but given how much less buggy 26.2 is than 26.0, I am hopeful

@glyph every time I get one of those dialogs, I have to suppress the reflex to hit “no”, and think about what it means. Hitting “yes” still feels like intentionally failing the phishing exercise probe email from ITSec training.

@glyph I’ve been avoiding this ever since discovering elpy doesn’t work on Python >3.9 (IIRC)

@genehack okay good news / silly news:
good: I reset a bunch of sticky / broken network state, all the dialogs came back, setting my VPN back up worked fine; nothing seems broken
silly: uh, apparently I forgot about this customization:
'(gnutls-trustfiles '("/Users/glyph/Library/Python/2.7/lib/python/site-packages/certifi/cacert.pem"))
And the distinction between "batch" and "GUI" was "did init.el load" not "bundle ID hooey"

@genehack re: phishing exercise, a huge amount of the benefit of LNP is the fact that the dialog pops up if malware tries to do something noninteractively in the background. if it's happening at app launch it's prooobably legit

@glyph LLM as Dave the Barbarian's megaphone

it's truly amazing what LLMs can achieve. we now know it's possible to produce an html5 parsing library with nothing but the full source code of an existing html5 parsing library, all the source code of all other open source libraries ever, a meticulously maintained and extremely comprehensive test suite written by somebody else, 5 different models, a megawatt-hour of energy, a swimming pool full of water, and a month of spare time of an extremely senior engineer
@glyph what’s the context here. Feels like I missed some news

Tanto improvviso quanto impattante. Si abbatte anche su Genova la notizia del blocco disposto dal Tribunale di Milano sull'area a caldo dell'ex Ilva di Taranto. Il provvedimento, datato 25 febbraio, impone interventi urgenti per mitigare gli effetti delle lavorazioni per l'ambiente e la salute. Entro una scadenza precisa, il 26 agosto pena la sospensione dell'attività.
