Technology@lemmy.world•The Quiet Decision Microsoft Made That Devastated Thousands of NonprofitsEnglish
2·6 days agoSure, this small and mid-size services are just fine for backing up your data, and should surely be used as such. But using “cloud services” is nonsense. Too bad it has such good marketing.

It takes time and effort and interest to learn these things, and most people lack at least one of those The folks here on Lemmy tend to be more plugged in than most people, but I’m willing to bet that there are areas where we have big blind spots in terms of the systems around us as well.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Could machines develop consciousness just like we did?

We assume it is a function of our brains, but we could be wrong. Are intelligent birds, apes, and dolphins conscious? What about lizards? Flatworms? Trees? Yeast?
If you want to go down that rabbit hole, search “what’s it like to be a bat?” or “the hard problem.”
