Someday in a few years there will be an accident in the opt out service that routes 95% of attempts into a 500 error screen. All they have to do is underpay and never check on the server admin for that service for years until they don’t care.
How would you determine that a cited source was wrong?
Subject matter experts do still exist. They’re dying off, and it’s unclear how many more we intend to create. But we do still have some.
Lemmy is ironically incredibly tech illiterate
I disagree with all these self hosting Linux running passionate open source advocates, so they must be technology illiterate.
it’s possible to both increase efficiency of combat machines and not increase the chances of civilian casualties and friendly fire (when somebody is at least trying to not have those).
But how does this work help next quarter’s profits?
“intensity, clarity, and bold execution”
Not just “intensity”.
Markor is a handy fast Android note taking app with Markdown and todo.txt support.
Since everything it creates are text files, it pairs well with various file syncing apps recommend in this thread.
I could not believe I didn’t find this fun free gem sooner. I’ll let the description from F-Droid explain the details:
This is a roguelike twist on the original Breakout formula: The goal is to catch as many coins as possible during 7 levels. Coins appear when you break bricks. They fly around, bounce and roll, and you need to catch them with your paddle. At the end of the level, you get to pick upgrades. There are 50+ different upgrades that impact the gameplay in various ways. Many upgrades will impact your combo, that’s the number of coins spawned for each brick broken. Your “combo” is displayed on your paddle. Your score is displayed in the top right corner of the screen. Oh, and don’t miss the ball, you don’t have extra lives.
Dino (for desktop) pairs nicely with Conversations for Android (mobile).
Yes. I guess no more nine volt batteries in Europe. Or maybe we should focus on banning the sale of assorted lengths of wire.
The world would probably be a better more peaceful place if he could find a pair of heels that fit, and the right place to rock them at.
Even if he’s not into that, there’s still more lifestyle options he may have missed.
So the billionaires are getting ready to try and lower everyones pay
🌍👨🚀🔫👩🚀
Haha. Trained in racism is going on under the hood.
Yes. This was what made me stop paying for streaming.
Yes, I guess, as a Linux user I could probably steal their stuff more easily than some others. (?) Or maybe just because I know how my computer works.
But - I have better things to do with my time.
I have indicated this to the streaming providers, using money, which I paid them, each month.
I believe that this is an easy way to tell me apart from pirates, who I understand did not pay for the streaming services each month.
But since the streaming services stopped delivering quality working streams to my devices, I no longer pruchase their streaming services.
Now I am enjoying my ancient DVD and VHS collection until streaming services stop sucking.
The best is when they use iPad notes or even their fucking contacts to save info lol
That’s awesome, worrying, adorable, and still more secure than using the same password everywhere.
I’ve had users have separate written entries for “Office”, “Skype”, “Hotmail”, and “Windows” because they don’t understand those things are all one Microsoft Account.
In fairness to them, I get a new email every month or two from Microsoft letting me know that they merged another account that I didn’t ever ask them to.
makes me worry what I’ll be like when i need some young whippersnapper so that I can pay via personal, irrational, conditional thinking.
Sometimes I share this fear.
But then I think - I’m on Lemmy, so I think “I’m still hip to new jazz.”
But then I remember that Virtual Reality will (probably) be commonplace someday, and something somewhere will require it - and I know in my heart that I’ll complain loudly about it before, during, and after I (demand that my grandchild) use it (for me).
It’ll almost certainly be an AI model backed by 1000s of “trainers” in 3rd world countries doing it, but only until the model is fully trained.
This would be better than most of the crap being proposed or implemented.
But, since the keys are presumably reusable, they’ll presumably get borrowed shared by and among minors almost immediately.
There could be some “Netflix account sharing” style work to deter that, of course.
So…coming soon: an app that can match up images of friends or colleagues with a summary of their pornography preferences.
This could at least liven up some boring meetings or dull parties…
That’s perfect timing, since in a moment the car will be started, and they can resume drinking…
