I tried watching what was supposed to be a video comparing several linux distros. Instead, it was AI text to speech narrating over random images. Are people uploading this crap in an attempt to get a share of ad revenue, or just to be awful? I have to hope Youtube doesn’t let this be fully automated, so people are doing this on purpose…

Still angling for that Nobel Peace Prize…

You know it’s going to be successful when they go back to using antiquated productivity measurements like measuring based on lines of code in a time frame. We all know AI is fucking spectacular at generating overly verbose code.

That thumbnail is chef’s kiss good

I’m kind of surprised the latency was that low. Unless the NK “employee” was spoofing being in SK or something.

Waterfox is on the same page. As long as the browser doesn’t outright require it to functio0n, I think the privacy-focused forks will remain. Of course, it’s extra work to maintain divergent code, but this is worth it, IMO.

My ten year old former Win10 gaming PC was recently reborn as a CachyOS Linux gaming PC, and I just finished playing through Clair Obscur on it. I did have to upgrade the video card, but I got the RTX 5050, well within your “second best” range target, since it’s technically their budget level card.

I tried the PWA route with Discord. It wouldn’t stay logged in, and acted generally janky. That said, I do PWA with any app that’s Electron, at least to try and avoid the RAM bloat.

Didn’t you hear? They retired the penny from production. :)

We are either at war and this is a war crime, or we are not, and it’s state-sanctioned murder. I don’t recall Congress declaring war against South America, yet.

The what?

Must be nice to have preventative MRI’s as an option, vs. having to quadruple justify a medically necessary MRI to the insurance bureaucracy, have it be rejected twice for no reason other than their greed, and then finally pushed through after your doctor lays into the penny pinchers to tell them to STFU and get out of the way.

I wonder if this would make Apple pull out of India. It’d be awkward, with all the manufacturing they moved there.

This has a strong whiff of the former Facebook engineers that forbade their families from using the platforms they built.

Edit: Maybe it’s a “I’d release them if I could, but the investigations prevent me” situation.

That, or a “I know they don’t have the votes in the Senate, so it’s moot” situation.

Right? Why the hell did Trump unilaterally pardon all the Antifa’s that did J6?

Snark all you want, a browser that breaks every time it updates because the code isn’t signed, not great.

It’d be really funny, if, while taking down whatever Dems did have ties, he ends up also gutting his own majority in Congress, or something like that.

Heh, there goes Librewolf’s only sane updating mechanism. IIRC, the devs of that are vehemently against paying Apple the money to sign the code, and they also fail to provide their own updater. It was one of the main drivers behind my switch to Waterfox.

I’ve been a “Pro” user for as long as they’d had that distinction vs. lower end and the “it’s a small tablet” size.
