If anything it will keep accelerating the worse quarterly results are as they try to solve their way out of problems they made while still keeping the problems

Straight up due to Microsoft's methods lately I've been shifting everything I can to Linux

My goal is by the time support is dropped for Windows 10 to have seamlessly switched to Linux (I'm feeling Linux Mint TBH)

@Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

That's the spirit

Get them used to FOSS now so that they never have to switch to it later

Pretty much the only thing holding me back right now is Fusion 360 (really good CAD modelling software)

As soon as I can find a good alternative that does what I need it to do I can jump ship pretty painlessly

The cropping on this image bothers me deeply

I love it

FCC to declare AI-generated voices in robocalls illegal under existing law (arstechnica.com)

Robocalls with AI voices to be regulated under Telephone Consumer Protection Act, the agency says. I'm pretty sure this puts us on the timeline where we eventually get incredible, futuristic tech, but computers and robots still sound mechanical and fake.

If the origin of the call is outside the US it's much harder to prosecute the illegal calls

Amazon could soon be on the hook for safety of third-party products it sells and ships — Government order could classify it as a distributor, potentially exposing it to more legal claims (www.wsj.com)

Not even pretty much, they really are a distributor

They have many different businesses all selling on their shelves and then Amazon ships you the product

There's a specific process and kind of panel you need to back feed power into your home

Basically your panel needs to have it setup so that it can either be powered by the generator or the grid. 1 or the other but never both at the same time.

I really dig my Nexus 5x

It was so nice, my only complaint really was swapping the battery out of the old one went to hell

Raspberry Pi is planning a London IPO, but its CEO expects “no change” in focus (arstechnica.com)

The business arm of Raspberry Pi is preparing to make an initial public offering (IPO) in London. CEO Eben Upton tells Ars that should the IPO happen, it will let Raspberry Pi's not-for-profit side expand by "at least a factor of 2X." And while it's "an understandable thing" that Raspberry Pi enthusiasts could be concerned,...

Straight up this has me concerned for the same reason

Once a company becomes beholden to shareholders that's literally the goal

And a damn successful one

The shirt styling is a very complex meme with an extraordinary history

The color and the dyes to get there

The tag location even

Not to mention the technology behind the photo

Chefs kiss

It's a beautiful example of a meme on many fronts

Kernal level anti-cheat means I ain't gonna play it

I don't care where the company is based no game should be requiring kernal level access, that's just opening the door for security concerns

I'm in favor of the anti AI rule but against the anti moldy posts rule.

Also, could you remove that image from the post, I almost reported the post for "unflagged NSFW" because of it.

Edit: Reported it after an hour for the "unflagged NSFW" maybe that will get their attention on removing the image from the post because there's literally no reason for it to be there.

Knowing how much our system fucks over disabled people in other ways I'm going to guess that they're still required to do it, so they either have to hire someone or do it themselves.

shove a sock in the victims' mouth

Nah, skip the sock. It's a choking hazard.

Tape across the mouth and some tape under their jaw to prevent opening

Can't scream very loud if they can't open their mouth and they won't choke

... And I'm probably on a list now

Here's a great vid on airbags for motorcycles

Fun fact the manual ones are better

I don't think it's AI as it's too close IMO to the actual thing

Google has really been dropping the ball a lot more publicly lately

Gormadt ,
@Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Changing the banner for like holidays and anniversaries of things isn't an issue for me IMO

But yeah all their tracking shit that you can't opt out of is a big problem and a big part of why I'm pulling away from Google as much as I can

unsuitable for the public

This definitely applies to those that identify themselves as "alphas"

I see you bought a dryer that's in Hawaiian time

No worries, just go with the flow it'll work out

Fun fact though typically the last little bit of drying in the dryer is just cool down time, so just reach in there and grab those toasty boxers, you'll be fine

Owning a home would cut down on so much of the money I'd need to earn

NGL I've done a lot of budgeting on the idea

It's great to hear that the people responsible will actually do time for what they did

Usually when you hear about people at a corporation doing some shitty stuff all you hear about is fines

Yes, on more than one occasion

Usually it ends up making people incredibly angry

I was homeless for 8 years and a good portion of that I lived in my car

What I wouldn't have given to have a safe place to park each night during that time

It's better than a tent, but not by much

This is like a breath of fresh air in the face of the toxic masculinity crowd

I swear it seems like the whole "alpha male red pill" bullshit orbits around cutting oneself off from parts of the human experience

So seeing Duke Nukem (a super masculine dude(to the point of parody)) taking time to be creative is great in the face of that

Being human is complex and each person's experience is unique. Only you see the world through your eyes.
