Technology@lemmy.world•Why Are Cars Getting Rid Of Android Auto?English
6·10 months agoIt’s not money. The executives of these companies revealed the reason they are doing this is because they believe they can provide a better end user experience. They wouldn’t lie would they?
I thought of this episode as soon as I read post
Back in my day you could get an app that doubled your RAM. No memory modules required.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Does it ever bother some of you that "I'm switching to Linux!" is just more of a way to appear rebellious than actually committing to the choice?
13·11 months agoMany of us have switched to Linux and haven’t looked back. Just because we’re not posting about it doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Nothing’s new bloatware includes Facebook services that can’t be uninstalledEnglish
10·1 year agoI’m sure they can, it’s just sad to see they’re giving such a sleazy company a spot on every phone no matter what. Also, who knows what type of system access Facebook has been given to track us. They track people even if they don’t have a fb acct.
I came here to see if someone had already posted this. I wasn’t disappointed.

Technology@lemmy.world•AI has had zero effect on jobs so far, says Yale studyEnglish
81·1 year agoAi has been trained on current and past writing which could be considered plagiarism depending on if you’re asking an Ai CEO or not. My question is, what happens when most writing is done by Ai? Do they continue to train it but now on itself? Will the language models experience deterioration at that point?

Technology@lemmy.world•Cracker Barrel Outrage Was Almost Certainly Driven by Bots, Researchers SayEnglish
331·1 year agoPeople are easily convinced to choose a view based on what everyone else around them is doing. This is why Ai is such a threat right now because a single actor can flood social media, comment boards and other online groups with comments arguing a point to convince everyone theyre the ones with the alternative view. It’s programmed social manipulation.

Technology@lemmy.world•Silicon Valley Is Panicking About Zohran Mamdani. NYC’s Tech Scene Is NotEnglish
1441·1 year agoHe won’t affect global policy much at all. He’s a threat to the mega wealthy because he’s a symbol of change in the American people.
This is the same reason the elite went so hard on the communist scare late last century. Back then certain political views were almost a criminal offense. Hopefully history doesn’t repeat itself here.

Technology@lemmy.world•Linux Reaches 5% Desktop Market Share In USAEnglish
4·1 year agoIt really depends on your hardware. I have a Dell XPS with an 11th gen Intel i5 that I’m running Fedora (Gnome desktop environment) on and it was rock solid from minute one. Things to check:
-
Make sure your network card is supported. Intel network cards are some of the better choices for open source compatibility. On most laptops this can be swapped out if necessary.
-
Camera
-
Touchpad
-
Fingerprint sensor
-
Sound driver
-
Any niche functions or modules. Think things like a secondary display on the keyboard, speciality ports etc.
Support is much better now than in the past and remember you don’t need everything to work to have a good time. My fingerprint sensor doesn’t work but it didn’t work well under windows so no big loss for me.
- You can always use a live bootable USB drive to test your hardware without having to commit to anything. This will tell you a lot about the experience you might have after installation. Heck, if you’re board you can try this right now and it won’t touch your current hard drive or operating system.

Nvidia is using the “its fake news” strategy now? My how the mighty have fallen.
I’ve said it many times but publicly traded companies are destroying the world. The fact they have to increase revenue every single year is not sustainable and just leads to employees being underpaid, products that are built cheaper and invasive data collection to offset their previous poor decisions.

91·1 year agoThe copyright holder is only actually harmed if I would have paid them otherwise. Since I never would have paid for the movie nothing changes for them. Nothing is stollen because they would have no idea someone had a copy unless they check.

This is the correct take. Buying from one store creates a monopoly and that benefits no-one except that monopolists.
