AeroLemming,

Using light mode is like putting a lamp facing upwards underneath a frosted glass table and reading some paper on that table.

AeroLemming,

This is going to be so niche that I would be astonished if anyone got the reference, but we really see the true power of medics in their absence when GGG plays through SCII WoL with the Real Scale mod running Marines only.

AeroLemming,

Close! Giant Grant Games.

AeroLemming,

Apps, plural? I thought this was just a browser thing.

AeroLemming,

It depends. Some dogs suffer from mental illnesses and can’t really be trained out of it.

AeroLemming,

Some dogs don’t even respond to collars! But yeah, my neighbor’s dog barks for hours at a time and it wakes me up sometimes. I just don’t know what they should be expected to do other than closing the windows.

AeroLemming,

If it required a trip, I could just not go. Forced updates should be a felony with real prison time for company executives.

AeroLemming,

Nothing inherent about modern software makes it require updates. You only need to update software regularly if it has external connectivity so you can patch vulnerabilities, and forcing that on people is just an excuse to force “feature” updates that include lots of bloat and spyware. It should be illegal to make connectivity mandatory.

AeroLemming,

That article was completely useless.

AeroLemming,

I hate the ones with the big bodies. The ones with long legs are basically just walking strings, they don’t bother me as much.

AeroLemming,

Waking up early isn’t natural. Where’s my 2 PM gang?

AeroLemming,

Oh yeah, extreme censorship, shitty mob votes, and a DLC marketplace. So reinvigorated.

AeroLemming,

I’m generally libleft and I’m quite upset about it. I bought the game. I own the game. They shouldn’t be allowed to take it away from me. What if you were gay and a car bricked itself because the manufacturer didn’t approve of you frequenting a gay bar?

AeroLemming,

All editions have DLC except Java. Many free Java features are paid in other versions. The problem with the mob vote is that they could totally just add all 3, but don’t.

AeroLemming,

How did going to uni in your 20s instead of straight out of high school affect your ability to socialize? Did it introduce any sort of unique struggles or problems, and if so, how did you deal with them?

AeroLemming,

By gender, I assume.

AeroLemming,

If you really want ad blocking, use DNS-level blocking with NextDNS or RethinkDNS. I haven’t seen a single ad so far.

AeroLemming,

Being able to configure exactly how far the jump forward/backward buttons take me individually makes it so much easier to skip sponsorships. Plus, it’s just a great app.

AeroLemming,

Did you end up getting the full amount back?

AeroLemming,

Well that’s fucking bullshit.

AeroLemming,

Honestly, fuck dynamic typing in general. That shit saves you a few seconds and costs you a few hours.

AeroLemming,

I take it your only experience with statically typed languages is with C. It’s a big world out there!

AeroLemming,

That’s 100% spot on. Those hours lost never come if the whole project is done in 30 minutes.

AeroLemming,

Now THAT is how you protect the children!

AeroLemming,

In my experience, DDG has less relevant results than Google most of the time, but will occasionally end up being way better than Google if you’re looking for something that goes against corporate interests. It’s a lot easier to find free movie sites and whatnot on DDG.

AeroLemming,

Yeah, Matrix fucking sucks. The organization scheme is obtuse and confusing, it takes longer to send a message over Matrix than it does to post a comment on Lemmy, and it has those god-awful read indicators that you can’t turn off.

Lemmy was written in Rust, while Matrix was written in Python. I can’t blame poor design on Python, but I’m sure the poor performance is not a coincidence.

AeroLemming,

You can’t disable sending read indicators in Element last I checked, only receiving them. What kind of problems is Lemmy having?

AeroLemming,

I found this if it’s what you mean, but all it mentions tech-wise is that Lemmy is slow to develop. This does make sense, is it what you’re referring to?

AeroLemming,

Why are you copy-pasting the same comment on multiple posts?

AeroLemming,

DeSantis would be worse. Competent evil VS flailing baby.

AeroLemming,

Did you just… admit to doing it on purpose, tell me to fuck off, delete both the duplicate and abrasive comment, and then finally claim that it was an app glitch?

What are some FOSS programs that you think are a far better user experience than their counterparts? (sh.itjust.works)

I used Plex for my home media for almost a year, then it stopped playing nice for reasons I gave up on diagnosing. While looking at alternatives, I found Jellyfin which is much more responsive, IMO, and the UI is much nicer as well....

AeroLemming,

OBS works well, but it’s anything but simple. You basically have to reconfigure it every time you want to record something with a different window size. It’s a pain in the ass.

AeroLemming,

Just general recording snippets of things to send to people. A non-maximized window is a different size from a maximimized window, which is also a different size from a full screen window.

AeroLemming,

Nobody likes ads! Not even advertisers, apparently. Maybe that money should go elsewhere!

AeroLemming,

If the purge happened IRL and there were no laws for a while, I wouldn’t go around causing mayhem or hurting people, but there wouldn’t be any billboards left in my neighborhood by morning. Fuck advertisers and doubly fuck the ones that don’t even provide an actual service. Ads in exchange for online services are annoying as fuck, but ads you don’t even consent to should be illegal.

An anti-affirmative action group is suing the US Military Academy at West Point over race-based admissions policies | CNN (www.cnn.com)

The US Military Academy at West Point is being sued for its race-based admissions policies by the same group that won a landmark case against Harvard University and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in the Supreme Court over affirmative action earlier this year, according to a lawsuit filed Tuesday.

AeroLemming,

So your answer to institutional racism is more institutional racism? Making sure an under-qualified kid gets into college instead of a well-qualified kid because the latter had the wrong skin color isn’t going to make up for the racism experienced by other people who happen to have the same skin color as the under-qualified kid.

AeroLemming,

So fix the circumstances. Use federal funding to bring equality to the public school system and broaden SNAP to cover more disadvantaged people and provide them with a greater level of assistance.

AeroLemming,

If you want to fight economic inequality, do it by lifting up impoverished people regardless of race. There are plenty of poor white people who have never benefitted from preferential treatment. Make public schools good enough to enable those who are financially disadvantaged to have an opportunity to do well academically regardless of their race.

AeroLemming,

Giving to poor people regardless of race includes economic victims of racism. It doesn’t matter if you’re poor because you or your ancestors experienced racism or if you’re poor because of more broad economic oppression and bad luck, it doesn’t make you any more or less deserving of help either way.

AeroLemming,

💀

AeroLemming,

How do you quantify the financial oppression if not with financial status?

AeroLemming,

Sorry, I don’t remember which episode. I’m pretty sure it was in season 1.

AeroLemming,

I mostly agree with you except the libertarian part. Is that a misspeech or something? The Federation is pretty far from being (economically) Libertarian.

AeroLemming,

A big part of the Trek universe is that it’s supposed to represent a society that has overcome the limitations imposed upon it by greed, oppression, and hate.

AeroLemming,

Characters on the show also mention on multiple occasions that certain foods don’t taste as good when replicated.

AeroLemming,

It’s probably just cheap ingredients. Not an issue for replicators.

In Spain, dozens of girls are reporting AI-generated nude photos of them being circulated at school: ‘My heart skipped a beat’ (english.elpais.com)

Police investigation remains open. The photo of one of the minors included a fly; that is the logo of Clothoff, the application that is presumably being used to create the images, which promotes its services with the slogan: “Undress anybody with our free service!”

AeroLemming,

All they’d need to send to trusted servers is some basic metadata and hashes of segments of video. That’s enough to verify that the video hasn’t been tampered with after it was filmed as long as you trust the hashing function.

AeroLemming,

Ooh, smart. They’re obviously not very smart, I wouldn’t be surprised if they straight up forgot to scan bios.
