Coding is so easy

yeah that’s the one

Literally today Chris Titus released a video where he emphasized that no one should be using secure boot because the default backend is Microsoft and no one changes their secure boot config.

If that’s true there’s an argument that the name “secure boot” is hardly detachable from the defaults and thus that name is kid of burnt and shouldn’t be recommended out of an abundance of caution for new users.

Alright fk EA with a rusty spoon

Oh yeah most definitely.

I just wrote this because these memes are rampant and funny, but they do make light of a bad circumstance on our society. And that trope usually targets men, so here’s some context.

Thanks for lining it out so well.

There’s a good shot that she’s into me, but if she’s not, I’ll either die of embarrassment or I’ll get bullied by their whole social circle.

Add to this that men usually are not as socially comfortable as women, and you kinda understand it why this happens.

Really good video.

Also look at his glorious hair, absolutely handsome bastard.

I agree some questions feel forced, even rhetorical. I have a hard time believing it’s AI. I think it’s either a bunch of alt accounts from one guy who needs help winning arguments or a bunch of people roaming around in very weird social circles.

But yeah, there’s days Lemmy feels like a breath fresh air, and then it feels like someone is playing shenanigans in multiple communities for a few hours.

The point might be injunctions and judicial record, they might know they’re not getting their money back.

That’s an extremely specific scenario and I would bet money on it not happening quite as you describe.

What if people become more AI literate and generally understand it’s uses and misuses better? What if the dating and social connection landscape changes and some other platform makes things way easier or changes the way we connect? What if people become so lonely they revert back to prostitution?

There’s a million more scenarios and no one really knows what the future looks like, so I think it’s very likely that your scenario does not come true at all.

Then choose one at random. Or make a register page that lets you search for one using tags.

I genuinely don’t think this is hard, it just takes someone putting the time in.

Ok so when you’re talking about xmpp as a discord alternative, basically movim is kind of what people should be paying attention to.

I’ll def check that out. I am also passively observing progress on stoat.

Now this is a question: how far can you get with xmpp? Could you build an interface on top of it to look exactly like discord with all of it’s functions? Or does something like that already exist?

My first instinct with these older protocols is that there’s no way they could support 10 people in a voice call with concurrent camera streams and 3 screen captures. I’m genuinely curious how far xmpp goes.

Because the people make the platform, and not the functions, and for lots of people you need a lower entry barrier, and the entry barrier for both of those is a good bit higher than fluxer.

Don’t get me wrong, if matrix was a bit more convenient (easier to understand and to use like you would discord, and less bugs of which there are still a wide range of), I’d 100% advocate for it. But I can only tell my friends to use something if it’s convenient enough that they will genuinely avoid a degraded experience.

Not following their own professional advice

Pacman supremacy

I use arch btw

Very interesting.

Tying this to the minimum wage has some unique consequences and I can see why you chose that.

I have to point out though that in your wording, disseminating information while you are working will be very hard. For example, going to conferences might get you convicted (working under a contract from a company and then disseminating information in that conference) and I imagine there’s quite a few other things that could also fall under this, though I see you already did some very exact limits.

I feel like these lines could be drawn a bitore elegant but it’s not like I’m a politician who has great understanding of laws and language in order to draft something like this.

Propaganda?

I see the following issue:

What is an ad? Is it an ad spot in the middle of a TV show? A big billboard? A banner on a website? Someone talking about a brand? Just writing or saying a brand name? Subtle algorithmic nudging?

You gotta put a line in the sand, and depending on where you put it, it’ll be harder to influence anyone or harder to address brands or products. There’s always a trade off.

And then additionally we gotta address any behavioural adaptions of big companies. Imagine if companies started striking illegal deals with social media companies for favourable algorithms? How do you control that? And on the other hand, imagine you were talking about a product and suddenly people accuse you of illegal advertising? How do you make sure people don’t skirt the line and also no one is wrongly convicted?

I’m not saying this is a dumb idea, I actually agree cracking down on forceful or manipulative advertising is an interesting idea, I just think that these broad stroke ideas an insane amount of continuous planning, validation and readdressing.
