If only. I was in the security queue at the airport. Please send bail money.

Musk seems to be increasingly infecting the whole company with his idiocy.

Diplomjodler3 ,

Looks like you got what you paid for. When you buy second hand, you always need to be very careful about the exact specs you're getting and get that in writing. Then again, that doesn't seem like a huge deal to me.

Diplomjodler3 ,

Such a genius move. Us ordinary minds cannot comprehend this.

Diplomjodler3 ,

The solution is always more tax cuts for the rich!

Rabbit R1 is Just an Android App (lemmy.world)

See, it turns out that the Rabbit R1 seems to run Android under the hood and the entire interface users interact with is powered by a single Android app. A tipster shared the Rabbit R1’s launcher APK with us, and with a bit of tinkering, we managed to install it on an Android phone, specifically a Pixel 6a....

VCs will just follow the hype of the day and invest in anything that spouts the right buzzwords. But they're aware of course, that most of those will fail. It takes just one out of ten to make it for it to be worthwhile.

I always give 100% at work:

  • Monday: 10%
  • Tuesday: 20%
  • Wednesday: 30%
  • Thursday: 20%
  • Friday: 20%
Diplomjodler3 ,

Surely you'll be a billionaire too some day, if you only play doormat to the owner class hard enough.

Diplomjodler3 ,

Have to make up 100 somehow. All numbers are just approximations, of course.

    That would be a cool project. You'd basically see everything the Russian regime doesn't want you to see, i.e. all the interesting bits.

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    I hate those fucking things so much. To anybody who uses one: I hate you!

    Diplomjodler3 , (edited )

    What job exactly? What are you trying to achieve that would outweigh the noise and pollution, you're creating?

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    If you use an electric one, I hate you only a little bit.

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    They're less annoying and polluting but still a fucking nuisance. And most of the time they're just used to achieve some idiotic standard of cleanliness, without any practical usefulness.

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    Small children are more tender but I often need two before I'm full.

    It's called "per Nachnahme", C.O.D. in English. You'd pay the postman for your parcel and the post office would pay the sender. It used to be quite popular in pre internet days. You whippersnappers wouldn't remember. Not used a lot any more these days.

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    I changed the font size in Mint once. Does that count?

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    Damn thing doesn't even know it's running locally. Just ask it. And it can't tell the time.

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    The depressing thing about all this is that this stuff actually works. Most people will happily consume whatever shit is served to them.

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    Yep. I will never use any VR product by Meta. Mark can go zuck himself.

    Gee, I wonder why Kevin isn't in the bible...

    Windows 11 Start menu ads are now rolling out to everyone (www.theverge.com)

    Microsoft is starting to enable ads inside the Start menu on Windows 11 for all users. After testing these briefly with Windows Insiders earlier this month, Microsoft has started to distribute update KB5036980 to Windows 11 users this week, which includes “recommendations” for apps from the Microsoft Store in the Start menu....

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    Seconded. Mint is the best distro for anyone who wants to get started with Linux with the least amount of hassle. Installation is a breeze and it just works.

    Diplomjodler3 OP ,

    You can buy it these days. And this is not spot, but one of the cheap knock-offs.

    Diplomjodler3 OP ,

    Just wait until we have autonomous robot flame throwing dogs!

    Diplomjodler3 OP ,

    Every true, red-blooded American needs one!

    Diplomjodler3 OP ,

    It'll have no trouble reaching 451°F, for sure.

    Diplomjodler3 OP ,

    That'll teach the little shits!

    Diplomjodler3 OP ,

    Those dang socialists never let us have nice things!

    Then he will be zapped for trademark infringement with an orbital laser operated by the space oligarchs.

    Tesla’s in its flop era (www.theverge.com)

    When Tesla releases its first quarter earnings this afternoon, the company’s CEO Elon Musk will field the usual questions about new products, new factories, and progress toward its futuristic vision of self-driving cars and robot workers. But Musk will also face increasingly urgent questions about its current state of affairs...

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    I'll settle for one where the CEO isn't a Nazi.

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    Why not both?

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    It all makes so much sense now!

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    Another day, another piece of enshittification by MS, another reason to talk about our Lord and Saviour, Linus Torvalds, if you can spare a few minutes.

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    Try Linux Mint, specifically. Very easy to install, runs on everything, just works. And gaming really is as easy as installing Steam, even for non Steam games.

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    They were always about screwing over consumers to make money. The only thing that changed is that they've become increasingly unsubtle about it.

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    It's perfect for anyone who wants to switch from Windows with minimal hassle. There are plenty of other great distros, of course, but choosing one can be a bit overwhelming at first. That's why Mint is such an easy recommendation. It'll get you started, may well be all you ever need and once you're more into it, you'll better understand what to choose.

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    The major updates can be done though the software manager and have been completely painless for me so far. If you are concerned with always having the latest stuff, Mint might not be ideal for you. They're pretty conservative with updates so they can be a few versions behind on some stuff. That's the downside of the "everything just works" mantra.

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    Greetings, fellow geezer! I had the ZX81 in kit form, which meant you had to solder on every single component yourself. I still have it in the basement somewhere.

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    Is it supported by any app?

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    Greek mythology is actually older than Marvel comics.

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    I'm sorry. Of course we all know human civilization started in 1776 and there was absolutely nothing before that.

    Reddit Is Taking Over Google (tech.slashdot.org)

    Reddit, Quora, and other internet forums that have climbed up through the traditional set of Google links. Data analysis from Semrush, which predicts traffic based on search ranking, shows that traffic to Reddit has climbed at an impressive clip since August 2023. Semrush estimated that Reddit had over 132 million visitors in...

    How dare you doubt I'm human? Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate!

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    Don't let the door hit you on the way out!

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    It is now.

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    I'd buy one. Unless beaming is a subscription, of course.

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    The main problem with the gadget is that it just doesn't work very well.

    Diplomjodler3 ,

    There are a lot of AI products that work very well. Only people usually stop calling it AI once it works.
