Report this comment too. We can’t let Lemmy get overrun with clickbait spam or it will get worse here than reddit.
SelfhostedIIRC those updates were a series of bugfixes after a major update, which seems to be how they prefer to work.
“Google has added Hand gesture verification functionality to reCAPTCHA”
This title is clickbait, if we want Lemmy to be a competitor to Reddit we need to be better moderated than they are, not worse. Please report this post and OP to your instance admins.
LinuxNo love lost for IBM but I still wouldn’t expect to see casually mentioned alongside Palantir.
Wow I went to fact check that claim and it’s actually no exaggeration. Here is the AP article.
Google and Amazon provide cloud computing and AI services to the Israeli military under “Project Nimbus,” a $1.2 billion contract signed in 2021, when Israel first tested out its in-house AI-powered targeting systems. The IDF has used Cisco and Dell server farms or data centers. Red Hat, an independent IBM subsidiary, also has provided cloud computing technologies to the Israeli military, while Palantir Technologies, a Microsoft partner in U.S. defense contracts, has a “strategic partnership” providing AI systems to help Israel’s war efforts.
Crazy to see Palantir, Google, Microsoft mentioned alongside …Red Hat.
Anytime someone anywhere on the political spectrum uses the word “woke” without also defining what the fuck it’s supposed to mean I just cannot take them seriously.
S-tier satire of the conservative “Trekkie” (please Gene, I hope you’re being satirical). Real comments like that always make me think of Douglass Adams’ “rules” on growing old:
Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works.
Anything that’s invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it.
- Anything invented after you’re thirty-five is against the natural order of things.
Anytime someone says Star Trek’s progressivism was never “hamfisted” I usually just point them to the after school special that is Let that be your Last Battlefield:
IDK I think we’ll continue to see incremental gains for a long time, especially as normies abandon desktops/laptops entirely and the entire market shrinks. Windows will probably continue to dominate in enterprise for long past when it’s fashionable.
It’s crazy because Apple had every reason to be FAR ahead in that game.
TechnologyThat’s totally reasonable I only brought up Google Glass because it was famously ridiculed ("Glassholes") and yet still more fashionable even today than these things.
OK I can get into this.
First of all, all of these eye computers are dumb, but at least Meta’s Ray Bans look more or less like normal glasses. Even Google Glass was sleeker looking than these, and that was 13 years ago. I don’t know what Snap is thinking.
Same, and I personally know two people who I would describe as college educated white-collar folks, but definitely not into “tech”, who recently told me they switched to Firefox.
Assuming you mean desktop Linux, probably slowly. While Linux on desktop is growing, Desktops PC use in general is trending downwards and Linux on mobile is far behind the other players.
My gut says that long before Linux overtakes Windows/Macintosh most people who want a mouse/keyboard/monitor experience will just plug their phone into a simple dock, like we’re seeing with Android’s “Desktop mode”.
Oh, it’s an airport? I thought-
I have a stick I use for traveling and it’s great, I can throw it in my suitcase it can even connect to most weird hotel wifi that needs passwords or something.
Only if you’ve never bought a game on Steam before. I don’t think I’ve paid over $10 for anything.
I know I actually had to look it up twice to make sure I was correct and also not having another dimentia episode
“I am sure this overpriced plastic trinket will fill the meaningless void in your finite life” 🤣
Shit I think I may need to go play through the Portal games again.
ALSO WHAT
When they priced the controller at $99 I immediately suspected it would be part of a bundle deal for “a $99 value!”
Also WOW that cube is so much more than just a dbrand skin. That’s amazing.
Even at double the cost of a normal console, once you factor in the cost of games it comes out ahead. And hopefully the RAMpocalypse will end eventually.
Also Season 8 of DS9 would have revealed that Sisko had laser eyes this whole time and just chose not to employ them
It wasn’t so much the baseball itself but what it represents (a bazooka that shoots baseballs)
Unless there is some caveat like the nanites don’t work on the founders or Jem Hadar I don’t think it would be much of a contest
Then again the talking apes from earth seem to keep them at bay pretty well
im going to buy you a “done with the borg since ‘96” tshirt
gosh ok i guess the meme doesnt count then
I'm not saying one strategy was better but it certainly seems like one strategy was better
I’ve wondered the same thing many many times, but y’know what turns out he wasn’t
I’ve seen that but it’s a weird vibe coded app and doesn’t actually work
ShelfMark is the go-to option now. It’s also far better than Readarr was and works seamlessly with both Prowlarr and Anna’s Archive.
I think CWA is the most robust option out there. BookLore was vibecoded and behaved in the typical weird/unexpectedly way vibecoded apps tend to. I haven’t tried the Fork of it, but CWA checks nearly all the boxes and is actively developed.
I wish ABS synced progress between formats with KOReader!
Why are you protecting clickbait spam?
Just because google sucks it doesn’t mean you should upvote clickbait and spam
We should care about clickbait and spam
