I can understand the reservation against an AP-Platform not making clear that they display only a subset of messages, but not against the practice by itself. After all, it’s a platform specifically for showing images. A notification when following a non-pixelfed account that only image posts will be shown would do the trick too, but implementing the option to view text posts gives the user more agency, which is normally the best path as long as it doesn’t mess with usability.
They had to drop support because the chromium steam uses to display the store and many other things dropped support for those OS, so their hand was forced to fix security holes. I suspect a similar situation here - as long as the browser supports it, they will keep support for win10 alive.
According to government figures, users have downloaded the app more than five million times since its launch, helping to block more than 3.7 million stolen or lost mobile phones and blocking more than 30 million fraudulent connections, Reuters reported.
In that time, the app has helped recover more than 700,000 lost phones, according to the figures.
I don’t know, but i don’t believe a userbase of 5 million (which started at zero in january) with the rest of these numbers (700k lost phones?)
Early access titles and games with workshop support i get on steam - EA titles have the tendency to not update timely on GOG, and i take workshop support over stuff like mod.io or manually browsing and downloading any day. Otherwise i prefer GOG.
Oh i am already running Nobara as a daily driver for a year now, which works fine with Nvidia cards (i expected more issues, but was pleasantly surprised at my smooth experience stability- and bugwise). But the 8 GB VRAM of the card is pretty reliably the bottleneck now - i can monitor usage while playing, and VRAM usage forces me to reduce quality in a lot of games, or live with degraded performance.
I switched over to Linux a year ago, i chose nobara, which doesn’t have any obvious issues with my setup - they even made a small GUI tool for switching between open and closed, stable and beta Nvidia Drivers with a few clicks, which is a lot more comfortable than anything i experienced on windows. So i can attest that if it’s done right, Nvidia cards do their job just fine under linux.
The limiting factor is my VRAM, which simply isn’t enough for 1440p if i want games to look good too. reducing the Resolution is doesn’t look too good :-/
Thanks for reassuring me! The more i upgrade this system, the more i am scared to make a misstep - this pc has grown a lot over the last year, and the GPU switch is the last thing i can reasonably change to max this AM4 platform out, everything else will need a new Mainboard/CPU/Ram, and with the current DDR5 prices this is simply not a sound financial decision.
I didn’t know about that site, thanks! it even mentioned both the necessary bios update for the cpu and that one pcie 4x slot gets deactivated when the M.2 slot is used - i knew that, but i’m impressed they implemented that.
That makes me pretty optimistic about my chances, thank you!
I dki so too - just upgraded my X2600 with a shiny X5950, the nicest cpu my aging mainboard can run. with 16 cores and 64 gigs of ram i see a future when i simply replace the entire machine for daily use and make this one a very nice server.
Be honest before inviting them, that if they behave that way they should stay away. Any suicidal ideation should be discussed with their psychiatrist. There is no shame in cutting ties with toxic people.
Well, the chatgpt app on the play store is on place number one for the most downloaded apps, and has been there for ages. I think that less tech affine people (which don’t find their way here) use Chatbots pretty often and that there is demand.
and he looks a bit like surprised pikachu
yeah i would like to know too, might wanna join in :-)
oof. sorry to hear that. explains why they have no issues dealing with russia.
Where does this notion that oil&gas are dead dinosaurs come from? I know what you said is the truth, just as coal is the remainder of the huge forests that existed before bacteria could break down cellulose, but i would really like to know where this wrong factoid comes from - it’s literally everywhere
I learnt most in school (in austria tho, american schools have been defunded so hard its a miracle the US hasn’t fallen into pieces … yet), if i had to pin it down mostly in language classes (German, English) because of the literature i was exposed to and the discussions we had about current events, philosophy because its philosophy and art classes because of the teacher and interpretations of art pieces in context of the time they were created. Also my biology teacher who taught us to keep an open mind and a lot about the scientific method.
The important part were the teachers, who didn’t just let us memorize stuff, but encouraged us to ask questions.
I learnt about Aadhaar here about a month ago and was appalled at this technological nightmare, which (of course!) fucks over the poor and disadvantaged the most, with shit like “you cannot get an Aadhaar because you don’t have one”. I didn’t realize that this abomination could be cranked up to eleven too!
My suspicion is that this will lead to an “official” india and a “inofficial” one, with the inofficial part being ruled by gangs and crime syndicates with all the bullshit that comes with that. (if it isnt that way currently, i don’t know too much about it)
yeah, i can only offer my perspective, which is austrian - and it seems that those discussions were kept away from my surroundings; in our politics right-wing politicians surrounding the FPÖ were the only ones who criticized jews in a public way, and they did it because they are literally populist antisemites, rising from what the denazification didn’t eradicate. I myself became aware of the apartheid only a few years back, and like i said, i wasn’t so sure if it wasn’t facebook-style propaganda.
yeah i did upgrade this year, when i first read about rising RAM prices, i instantly bought a 64GB kit (DDR4 tho) - i paid a bit above 50€, the same kit now goes for 180€.
