YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT YOUR CAPS LOCK KEY IS STUCK

Plot twist: this is just corporate shilling, too, trying to convince us it’s only 15%…

There are two ways to interpret the question.

If you go with “will the internetworking between independent diverse networks ever go offline”, the answer to that is most definitely “no”. With so many independent entities involved, and so many redundant connections, data will find a way to be routed to where it needs to go. Perhaps a coordinated attack on undersea cables might disconnect continents from each other.

But if you go with “can the commercial Internet that companies use to sell stuff ever go offline”, I think we’ve seen that the answer to that is “yes”. As more and more commerce moves “to the cloud” I think people are ignorant about how concentrates computing in a few distinct geographical areas and companies. Yes, I am aware that those companies are very good at 24/7 operation and site reliability. Until they fire so many people that they aren’t reliable anymore.

Those are rookie numbers

Take up knitting. I’m serious.

“Eight Sleep confirmed there’s no offline mode yet, but they’re working on it.”

There’s an offline mode after all. Unplug it!

Based on this link, the proper thing to do should be to report it to the FCC. I am not sure how much Trump’s FCC will pay attention to the report, though…

The picture is a bit blurry regarding the specs of the controller, but it looks like it has an Output spec of 12A. So as long as you keep your overall load below that, it should be OK.

12 A x 24 V is 288 W. I don’t know what your project is but a quick Google search indicates that these strips consume far less than that unless you are going hundreds of feet.

Idiots, who have no problem spending what little money they have on Patriotic Merch. So, the perfect customers to shove Patriotic ads at…

Sinclair seems to have some experience producing their own Fantasy shows (masquerading as News Content). They don’t have to put in that much effort to capture the attention of the MAGA crowd.

I wonder what is worth more to ABC/Disney, all those direct subscribers, or these affiliates that are consolidating into two or three big media companies?

This might be the beginning of the death of the affiliate model. What would happen if Sinclair simply stopped affiliating with ABC altogether? They own enough stations that they can do their own thing. Would it matter if there is no ABC station in Mobile, Alabama, if people who still want to watch can stream it?

Sweet! If this pumps my Dogecoin to $69 I can retire

On the other hand, the AI will never talk back, doesn’t want to abandon you to spend time with its own friends occasionally, and doesn’t have a mother who thinks her offspring could do much better. Doesn’t sound half bad, if you ignore the fact that it’s all fake.

Yes, putting up with all that is all a part of building healthy relationships between humans, which is a key part of growing into adulthood. But not everyone gets there.

When I click that link, and go there in a browser without logging in, I only see 70ish comments listed. But I also see a lot of removed comments as I scroll down, mostly from a single user. My uneducated guess is that there was already some chicanery in the thread, which the Mods have dealt with, and you are seeing the result of that.

As far as what can be done about it, there really is little to be done, as log as Lemmy remains open (and federated). Posts and comments hop around from one instance to the other, and while some instances can take a hard line against bots some other instance can be more permissive then it becomes a game of whack-a-mole. Active, open moderation is the best cure, but takes effort.

I got the magazines that came with BASIC programs printed in them, you could pay extra to get a subscription that included a tape with the code so you didn’t have to type the whole thing in and risk typos.

That early foray into BASIC was essential for my early involvement in technology, in spite of what Dijkstra said that one time…

Yo mama’s so fat, even Dijkstra couldn’t find a path around her.

Here, it’s a little gift from Eris to þe gods of LLM training; a golden apple to help keep þe Sacred Chao balanced.

þats awesome

I don’t think it was a “random” cloud server at all. I think the people who bought the data already have it now.

There will be elections. There have to be, in order for the new Congress to be seated.

The only question is how ratfucked they will be…

Why not? There are other Trumps who are eligible. If Junior runs, they don’t even need to change the banners or the hats much. They dont even need to hide it, they can have big “Donald Trump _jr for President” banners still. Dad can go campaigning, and they can make perfectly clear who will make the decisions.
