Hadriscus ,

Is this an area where the quality of results particularly degraded ?

Hadriscus ,

Well this will be the month where I install PopOS

Hadriscus ,

Thanks for the advice. I have run Fedora in the past so I have an idea of the alternatives I need. I will probably listen to your wisdom and dual boot

Hadriscus ,

It used to be to reddit what reddit is to lemmy now, very broadly speaking. At least there was a great migration at some point because Digg got enshittified (perhaps one of the earliest examples of modern software enshittification)

Hadriscus ,

I want to go back 20yrs in time and confuse people by showing them this headline

Hadriscus ,

I've been boycotting amazon for the past 6 or so years, and it's gone well. But I moved to a remote place a while ago and they're close to the only shop shipping there. I chose them over other shops for my recent hardware upgrades because the cost of shipping plus the customs' 20% (applied on the cost of the item plus shipping, of course) make it unbearable unless I go for the lowest bidder

Hadriscus ,

Spot-on, yea, completely agree. It shouldn't have to be all or nothing because with this state of mind you feel guilty if you ever break your streak

Hadriscus ,

Not sure if you read the recent article or not, but the guy responsible for this enshittification came from Yahoo, where he applied the same policies. So you're more literally correct than you may think

Hadriscus ,

I think this is sarcasm but it could also not be

Hadriscus ,

Yea part of the point in designing these alternatives (to my understanding) is that the userbase can feel immediately at home, there is little barrier to entry

Hadriscus ,

Oh, I thought it meant "divided by ten"?

Hadriscus ,

My wife uses Flow or something to that effect. Should I advise her to change ? do the mainstream apps have privacy issues that Drip doesn't ?

Hadriscus ,

without me thanks. Morrowind's Bethesda is apparently long dead

Hadriscus ,

Had no idea you could do that. I just went and did it, thanks for the tip. I use Newpipe anyway

Hadriscus ,

A bit like selling your kidney to afford your master's!

Hadriscus ,

I wouldn't have believed that if you hadn't expanded upon it a little.
Right out of a dystopian movie

Hadriscus ,

hahahaha enshittification working against itself ! the future really is poorly performing code sitting on top of antisocial designs. What a timeline

Hadriscus ,

I installed Mint xfce on my landlord's low-end laptop and some time later Mint Cinnamon on my wife's 2016 Lenovo which was starting to show the typical signs. Great experience for both of them. I mean, the laptops work, which is the least you should expect from something you paid 600 bucks for

Roku explores taking over HDMI feeds with ads (www.lowpass.cc)

Roku is exploring ways to show consumers ads on its TVs even when they are not using its streaming platform: The company has been looking into injecting ads into the video feeds of third-party devices connected to its TVs, according to a recent patent filing.  ...

Hadriscus ,

Taking over Roku through hdmi ? that's bold

Hadriscus ,

Are you saying this as a compliment ? it's not completely clear. Either way, it is a compliment

Hadriscus ,

What is this "bailing out you are on your own" shit ?

Hadriscus ,

This is so arcane to me. Like, I more or less understand your high-level explanation, but then you gloss over "including the block offset" but how would one do that ??

Hadriscus , (edited )

This is up there with the redacted (just looked it up it's called the 500-mile email)

Hadriscus ,

😂 Please ping me if you find it (the story)...

Hadriscus ,

wow for real ? what causes it ? that sounds terrible. It's not informative at all

Hadriscus ,

how do you do that ? physical switches ? do you buy them separately and solder them ? where ?

Hadriscus ,

Neat, had no idea this existed. Thanks !

Redditors Vent and Complain When People Mock Their "AI Art" (futurism.com)

Setting aside the usual arguments on the anti- and pro-AI art debate and the nature of creativity itself, perhaps the negative reaction that the Redditor encountered is part of a sea change in opinion among many people that think corporate AI platforms are exploitive and extractive in nature because their datasets rely on...

Hadriscus ,

Wow, looks like I have two wildly different options here, such luxury.

C. There is no art

Hadriscus ,

So they're always immune to losing money ? are they protected by law in this regard ?

Hadriscus ,

Ok it all makes sense in retrospect... thanks
(synonymous with "They cannot afford to lose money")

Hadriscus ,

Kindly get fucked, if you don't mind (I hope my English comes across well)
