Because it’s ultimately about control. They’ve found it through their method and don’t like the others see like it.

I see someone took my suggestion

What makes it a “smash”-burger? I’ve always been curious.

Yup. I buy CDs when possible and rip them as soon as I get them then store the CDs as best I can.

We could cover that instead of continually sending weapons to Israel. There money for both.

Blood does not a family make. It just means the composition looks different.

I thought language filters are built into Lemmy directly. Log in to your instance and you can see it there. I think the bigger problem is posts or communities need to be tagged with a language and most are defaulting to “unknown”, so if you filter for only English you’ll lose most of the communities out there.

I’m lucky that I only have Gen1 products. I kept getting hit with “well don’t you want new features?” And I’m thinking to myself “what features?” This does everything I want. Plays local music, integrates with streaming services, syncs between multiple devices throughout the house.

And it’s a good thing I can’t upgrade after seeing this whole mess.

This is where AI would come in handy. Start scrubbing the buffer as it’s coming in to identify the difference and jump past it.

I really hate the conflagration between AI and LLMs. We’re seeing a polishing of LLMs and they’re great for mimicking language, but they don’t “know” what they’re saying. We’re still quite a ways off from GenAI and have just started working on more specialized AI. But without some massive leaps in understanding logic and filtering out garbage it’s gonna be a while.

“Happy Death Day!”

I doubt it will go anywhere. The HN discussion brings up some good points such as the fact that this is “based on precedence from another incident”, so it hasn’t been confirmed. And then a lot of the damage is SLA based which CrowdStrike can argue where was the conpany’s DR plans and accepted RTO and why didn’t they have them or execute them. There’s a lot that will get lost in legal hell for years to come.

You just sound stuck up when you say that. Like “is windows still a thing? I didn’t know because I use Linux. Don’t you?”

Of course Google is still a thing, by far it’s still the largest search engine in use on the planet, so most people won’t notice it. If anything, this hurts all the not-Google users. Can you imagine if different sites started signing exclusivity deals with different search engines?

Excuse me, but Scatman John would like a word with you, from 1994 to be exact.

An yes the old “the village elders must be right! Look how old they are” angle.

Dude, Clinton today is still younger than Trump and he was president 25 years ago.

“Gravity deck plating”… okay that makes sense. So basically each floor has its own gravity generation to orient you to it. They’re all placed “bottom to top” to work like a building but it’d be possible to put one in at a 90-degree angle for say maintenance work.

What the name of this air guitar band?

Especially that bump right around 42%. You know they retested that multiple times with a “wtf is going on?”

I remember when I was a kid having trouble wrapping my head around the concepts of “debit” and “credit” on a balance sheet. This sounds like they never grew out of that and just ran with it.
