PixxlMan,

I stopped watching when he started covert instruments and immediately realized what every single future video would be like. I was right…

PixxlMan,

Can’t believe I don’t want to watch advertisements all day

PixxlMan,

If anything they’d be buying since they’re the ones presenting ads… The whole data selling discussion online is always ridiculous. Who are these mystical data buyers ready to shell out billions for crappy “data” (does anyone participating in these discussions actually have a definition of what they think this ridiculously non specific ““data”” even is?) to present slightly better ads to users? Why would Google sell this data, shouldn’t they want to keep it to themselves?

PixxlMan,

Would a banking app with specific authentication requirements really work through that though? Reliably too?

PixxlMan,

Glad someone is keeping track o7

PixxlMan,

I agree. I support them joining, but not in the immediate future. They’ve got a long way to go still.

PixxlMan,

I think Flutter and Avalonia both tick all those boxes.

PixxlMan,

Just checked, and unfortunately no, Wayland is still in preview.

PixxlMan,

Can’t have enough ovals

PixxlMan,

I don’t even want to imagine printing over wifi drivers…

PixxlMan,

You should, and you shouldn’t let anyone stop you!

PixxlMan,

No, please tell the user. They’ve got their big boy pants on and can handle seeing one or two weird squiggles in the worst case, and might be able to actually diagnose and fix the issue themselves (without having to go through support) in the best case.

PixxlMan,

You can’t even copy text logged out on reddit anymore?! Guessing it’s new reddit, but damn…

PixxlMan,

The last panel is infinitely more readable than parsing the whole chunk of logic above. Maybe you’re just not used to this language’s (I think this meme used C#) null operators.

PixxlMan,

Even when, as the comment says, the memory is marked as cache?

Windows doesn’t have this problem

PixxlMan,

But wasted ram is still wasted, unlike if the ram was actually used for caching or actually speeding things up, not bootstrapping a freaking browser

PixxlMan,

Honestly, I don’t care about design changes in android anymore because whether good or bad they’re just going to change it for change’s sake in no time anyways

PixxlMan,

“Operating system” has a specific meaning and BIOS isn’t one.

PixxlMan,

That’s not what operating system means. In fact, you do not need one. You can run programs directly on the bare metal, it’s just really difficult too coordinate tasks that way.

PixxlMan,

I had over 2000 in Firefox. That’s when I decided to clear them…

PixxlMan,

Windows famously never generates any garbage files. It’s so reliable all servers run windows. Right?

BruceTwarzen, to asklemmy

Is there a Spotify alternative that has no ads?

I pay for Spotify for 7 years or so now and i'm so sick of all the ads. After every update there seems to be an: oops, sorry, you have ads now. Podcasts are filled with ads. I was just listening to a podcast where they shoved in 3 ads mid-sentence. How long until musicians put ads in their songs. I'm just so sick of it.

PixxlMan,

Some movies do have ads - product placements. Yeah, they suck.

PixxlMan,

A serious desktop got serious developers who are seriously serious about their serioucity

PixxlMan,

You’re just not a serious developer 😒

PixxlMan,

Seriously?!

PixxlMan,

I think it’s good, although the situation does seem to be somewhat dysfunctional on the game front. They’ve made literally dozens of projects, some near completion, all abandoned for one reason or another. I think this video does a good job of demonstrating it. It summaries a digital book called “Half Life Alyx: The final hours” written by a valve employee. Here: youtu.be/mHdrosltGJA?si=9TodoaYu95HMtRqf

PixxlMan,

God truly is dead, and electron killed him

PixxlMan,

So glad they’re moving forward on the non destructive front! Non destructive editing such a useful feature. I will always prefer to be able to non-destructively edit things I’m working on to easily be able to change things if necessary or to be able to see how I did something in the future!

PixxlMan,

Now 3 people support it, instead of 2! (No, literally)

PixxlMan,

Uh, this isn’t anything like a bank in the traditional sense… They aren’t using hydrogen as a currency or anything like that. This article is pretty unclear on what the “hydrogen bank” actually is, but it seems to be about promoting the development of hydrogen based technologies by, for instance, issuing loans for funding hydrogen related research.

PixxlMan,

One frame is probably in the context of the screen, not the framerate of the games. (The deck doesn’t have variable refreshrate so the screen will always use the same underlying framerate)

PixxlMan,

If the game is huge enough no one will have space to play anything else…

PixxlMan,

Presumably they could never afford to port to mobile themselves, without cooperating with Netflix. Since you don’t want to pay for a Netflix subscription… You’re not missing out on anything. It wouldn’t have existed if not for Netflix.

PixxlMan,

You’re just making stuff up.

They were perfectly capable of realising it with a fair price like everyone else

Says who? Do you know if the Devs can afford that or whether the mobile market is even likely to be profitable for them without help from netflix?

PixxlMan,

It’s just the other half :p

How come there isn't more torrent based technology

Most of the problems in the current internet landscape is caused by the cost of centralized servers. What problems are stopping us from running the fediverse on a peer to peer torrent based network? I would assume latency, but couldn’t that be solved by larger pre caching in clients? Of course interaction and authentication...

PixxlMan,

Not in an meaningful sense connected to the technology at all

PixxlMan,

With Unity you can get the problems of poorly documented and maintained third party tooling, with the added benefit of having to make your own in house tools too!

PixxlMan,

Precision always degrades

PixxlMan,

Translation of developer utilities themselves is the final layer of hell. I’m not hearing anybody out about this kinda stuff - after microsoft decided to TRANSLATE THE EXCEPTION MESSAGES IN .NET WITH NO WAY TO BYPASS IT making them unclear, unusable and ungoogleable, I realized what a terrible idea it is to fragment developer knowledge by language.

Let’s just stick to a lingua franca, please.

PixxlMan,

My gripe: I hate when people make stupid Lemmy comments.

Look I made a funny!

(The point is to show that all gripes are not automatically jokes…)

PixxlMan,

It’s just… Why?

Was there a thought process applied here at all? Worse still is that many of these localised paths are actually lies. They still use the original developer version in order to not break compatibility with programs, but refuse to admit it in the explorer. It’s maddening.

PixxlMan,

The devilish act of… Reusing a perfectly workable engine and forgetting a piece of text?

PixxlMan,

“I just want to talk”

PixxlMan,

Just link to the XKCD

PixxlMan,

Theres no reason they’d offer this as a free DLC as opposed to just including it in the game as an update though if they didn’t want to charge for it

PixxlMan,

Or ancient Greece

PixxlMan,

This meme was literally made for you, rex. Goddamnit rex.

PixxlMan,

Analogies are hard
