Fairbuds are Fairphone’s proof that we really could make better tiny gadgets (arstechnica.com)

But of course we all know that the big manufacturers don't do this not because they can't but because they don't want to. Planned obsolescence is still very much the name of the game, despite all the bullshit they spout about sustainability.

What a lame answer. Are you this lame in real life? There's OBVIOUSLY a HUGE spectrum of quality for iems, WHAT are you talking about? It's a valid question on the ops part. You wanted to be snobby but it's just a bad take that reveals how judgdy and smug and completely out of touch you are. Nobody thinks of you as cool, you don't have friends IRL, I hope your dog dies. I hate the internet fuck you you're the straw that broke the camels back. Would be a pretty cool place if people like you weren't in it. I quit

That's a great instinct to have in the current landscape, but keep in mind the rise of machine learning is happening. And there are a few really cool and good use-cases for it. So it might be a hindrance to yourself to automatically throw out anything to do with "AI", you might find something cool to use it for.

For instance, as a hobbyist graphic designer, I use a local instance of Stable Diffusion these days instead of Photoshop to make quick photo edits, saving me hours of manually masking out objects and filling in the blanks.

Crypto never got this far, not even a little. It may or may not always be around in some form as alternative currency but I think that's about all it will ever be useful for.

how can something be so courageous and yet so true (slrpnk.net)

Edit: Jesus Christ, people. If you buy a $150 Thinkpad made by slave labor instead of a $1,200 MacBook made by slave labor, you're still supporting a capitalist economy based on slave labor. We all do. We have no choice. The number of smug liberals in the comments saying "well I buy a cheap used laptop" or "well I buy coffee...

shea ,

Lmao participate in capitalism or die! That means you should spend all your money on the most expensive version of all your luxury items instead of using an old PC and making coffee at home. Internet hard-lefties need to take a look in the mirror, go outside, and readjust their priorities. Its these jokers that leftists get lumped in with that make us look bad. Yes, the original picture in this post is hilarious and ironic for all the same reasons it was originally posted, and I say that as someone who might agree with most of the laptop person's political views

The NVIDIA drivers getting removed during an update has happened to me THREE times in the last 3 months. In that same time frame I saw an LTT video where they had the same problem, and now this meme with the same problem again. What the actual heck is going on here? I just run the system update command and it says it has to uninstall the drivers due to some conflict with a system package. Then it reboots to the screen in the right image above. Im still trying different distros and configurations but it's almost enough to make me give up. As lame as windows is I can at least expect an update not to completely brick my system (most of the time).

It's not just a car theft tool, its not really even intended for that. It's just a neat little multi tool and it isn't even close to the first or only device capable of repeating recorded codes. A hammer can be used to break into a car really easily and nobody's ever called those "car theft tools disguised as hand-tools"

if big orange barrier then reroute

what is the source of this video so i can get a high quality version? please

'Yellowstone' star Lainey Wilson testifies AI using her voice was 'gut punch': 'It is a personal violation' (www.foxnews.com)

'Yellowstone' star Lainey Wilson testifies AI using her voice was 'gut punch': 'It is a personal violation'::Lainey Wilson spoke in front of the House Judiciary Committee Republicans on Friday asking for artists to have a "choice" when it comes to AI platforms using musicians' voices.

shea ,

wtf have you never made art in your life. what a sad sad take. please get help

shea ,

nobody says those that way in real life. I only hear people say "I went to the ATM" "I forgot my PIN"

shea ,

Doctor can you figma balls i think they're broke

shea ,

some terminals have 2 or even 3 cameras pointed at you, displaying on the screen so you know for sure they don't trust you. they're probably scanning your face nowadays too so they track individual purchase history

shea ,

but why? It makes software installation easy. You constantly angry nerds are a huge part of the reason Linux doesn't have more popularity. There's literally nothing wrong with flatpaks for the average user

shea ,

Say the word "gift". Don't pronounce the t. Wow. That simple.

I've been working on installing arch this week as my first Linux experience and i just came out as trans last year, is this is thing? Did i accidently become a stereotype?
