How is this different from the Lemmy devs, who are known to be pretty political? I was under the impression we were mostly fine seperating the program from the programmer, or is this situation different?

I wish my nerds would throw a power point party, that seems like it would go over well with this crowd. (Not so sure about them)

Ironicly, the pixle is actually a good choice, because you can put GrapheneOS on it. Its a deGoogled android project with a very security focused dev team behind it.

Represent!

Its the lone exception to itself. Thats why it gets a fancy name “The paradox of tolerance”. To abide by the intolerant is to validate them, thus contradicting your own tolerance of others.

Its circular logic, and the only solution is it carve out one exception, intolerance of those who are intolerant of others

Seconding steam deck, but also need to add in the docking station. That formfactor has stolen my heart, it does mobile gaming, along with having the horse power to be a PC substitute at home.

In addition to SteamOS, but ill let others promote linux and sticking it to microsoft now that linux desktops are finally crossing the “it just works” finish line.

For people already in the deep end. Its opinionated and does a lot of things for you to manage higher end consumer hardware (stuff you could manage yourself and learn how it works). For people who are a Windows native and are fleeing W11, it gets my recomendation as in Linux land it pretty close to “It just works”.

I dont have a problem with that, but what I will object to is the current regime making the replament ID system. 1) there is no way they would design it well or securely, smart people capable of building such a system are usually the first to bounce to another country as they will have the means to do so. 2) it would be too easy for them to lord the new ID over peoples heads (like they are with immigration status now) and impliment a social credit score like China does.

Your correct that SSNs should not be used as IDs, but getting the government to build a modern system for that opens too many avanues for abuse (especially with darth cheeto in charge).

Tell that to silicon valley, its a marketing bit now. Being “Too cool for school” is part of the tech startup playbook.

If I had a nickle for ever time the UK did something pants-on-head stupid or short-sighted from a minor survey or public poll, [counts change jar]… How much are big macs these days?

Destiny 2 was the old game I played 2 years ago when I switched to linux full time that does not play nice with Proton. And given how its driven itself off a cliff. I will miss the old space opera, but nothing of value was lost.

Seconding this, im on a FP4 and in the US so… Some real product reviews would be appreciated.

Thats even the funny part, you cant.

The reason they skipped Windows 9 was some ancient piece of code, lost to the ages that has been incorporated into Windows since dinosaurs once roamed the earth.

Atleast with the linux kernel you know who put what where, and can send them a fish in the mail if you think what they made stinks.

Sanity is over-rated, now if yall dont mind. Im going to spend the rest of my day swimming in a lake that thinks its a gin+tonic.

Oh neat, the tech flavored distraction, place your bets on whats next. My bet is he tried that freedom fries shit again.

A vegan, crossfit, arch user walks into a bar. Which do they tell you about first?

I know the big models will never really be able to achieve that in their current form, but am I reading too much crappy sci-fi to be paranoid that we should probably define what those are before it happens. Robot rights and such, because this is the mistake everyone makes.

Wern’t there a few AI maze projects in the works? I wonder if running one of those for a bit will cause you to be added to an ignore list, clearly they dont respect your robots file.

My mental image the solution of your last paragraph is a guy and their counsoler just chatting outside chopping firewood or other simple/quiet lawn work.
