Also keep in mind that employees of companies that release closed source software are obligated to keep secret any gaping security vulnerabilities. This obligation usually comes with heavy legal ramifications that could be considered “life ruining” for many of us. e.g. Loss of your job plus a lawsuit.

Often, none of the contributors to open source software are associated with each other and therefore have no obligation to keep discovered vulnerabilities a secret. In fact, I would assume that many contributors also actively use the software and have a personal interest in getting security vulnerabilities fixed.

Locksmith here. In a pinch, I’ve ground the back of a jigsaw blade down, leaving just the teeth on the blade (short enough to fit above the key). Jigsaw blades, especially those intended for metal, are hardened and will easily bite into just about any key, giving enough leverage to pull out the broken piece.

Plastic bowl. Squeeze it.

This is my hobby, too!

Protector and sequels, too. I also liked Integral Trees, but maybe a little less so.

Just to be clear, I’m not saying it isn’t useful, I’m just tired of hearing people say that the code “thinks”.

“AI” returns mathematically plausible results from its tokenized training data. That is the ONLY thing it does. It doesn’t consider, it doesn’t fact check itself. “AI” in its current state is a party trick.

Factorio. It’s the game I always come back to, and I’m always ready to spend 5 minutes playing here and there now that it works so well on steam deck.
