The article is written on the assumption that Google Translate is as good a reference as any when it comes to insults - which is very bold. Western culture is not so disparate and there are words for "geek" in French, mainly "intello" and which infact short for "intellectual".

"Geek" was not translated, not because it has no translation, but because it is now commonly used in the French language, and I'd bet the reason is similar for other languages.

Anyway, well written article but based on a stupid assumption.

You're comparing compiled executables to scripts, it's apples and oranges.

I don't really understand how that would work. I'm on Instagram because I follow some specific artists, collectives, companies, labels, etc., and secondarily for friends. If those are not on Pixelfed, what is there to follow?

Although Lemmy suffers of quite a content draught on less populated communities, it still works like Reddit since you follow topics, not people.

If video games were priced by hours of dev time, I could kind of agree (with the theory, in practice it doesn't really make sense). But let's be honest here - that's not what he means at all.

When OP conveniently forgets history under the guise of a joke. Germany was divided in two, remember?

What's horrifying to me is - if they thought about turning off their camera then, what did they say afterwards?

It makes sense that you'd be waiting for r/Godot

It is an ad, and also a really shitty practice to display it exactly like it was the first result of your research.

I just can't get enough of that Mediterranean lentil dahl.

Unfortunately, if the data is biased, the model is biased.

Well apparently not it seems

I don't think it could have gone much horse

Most 3rd party Reddit apps will be gone, and Reddit have shown willingness to move to a far more closed model than it used to be. Mods were and are not the only ones to leave.

It was designed to blend in with the search results. It's the same shitty design as the sponsored results appearing like they were the first few results of your Google or Bing search, or ads appearing as unread emails in Gmail or Hotmail.

I don't know how kombucha might be "good" for type 2 diabetics. The test sample in this study was of 12 people, I don't think any conclusion can be drawn yet.

No no no I'll stop you right there as you don't seem to get it: it's shitty in either case and must be called out, it's just that it's more recent for MK1. You don't get to sell a game 70€ and expect players not to complain when integral parts of it are held behind paywalls.

I feel like you're intentionally missing your own point.

Isn't the Pi 3B still available for that kind of job?
