U.S. military plane flies to Moscow
What is so odd about a military flight between allies?

'Merica, with all its diversity
Reply in thread
Merriam-webster appears to disagree with you. "America" is according to it one of three things:
And that is already the American centric definition of the English word. So yes, "America" in English can mean both, the Americas but also either Southern America or Northern America separately, as a continent. Mind you what definition is listed first. So why shouldn't you say then that Peru is in America than?

Have you know?
Let me guess, the shitpost about that is that this image is fully LLM generated with zero source, isn't it?
I'll be bold here and post an actual source, just to show that LLMs do indeed negatively effect its users: https://collimateur.uqam.ca/wp-content/uploads/sites/11/2025/12/2506.08872v1_comp.pdf

A pity, I was ready to learn something new and see some numbers but instead just the usual turning stuff into a battle.
I am not sure if you think the inflated revenue for products and services of the dominating companies of the Californian economy have no impact at all or if you think it is too insignificant to shift GDP enough to matter for the ranking.

Fair points, even though I am not sure how a "control" is supposed to look like in this context. Got something better on the impact of LLM usage on the users brain, especially in regards to learning?

Do you have numbers for the impact on Californian GDP by AI stuff, including secondary investments in the real economy to support that bubble (suppliers, construction etc)?

This is rage bait, right? What is this guy saying btw, when 10 car drivers are making 200 people in a light rail wait because traffic lights are completely car centric?

Yeah, a lot of that is AI bubble hot air though. If you count that out it is probably still top 10 but a lot less over the top. Either way, still a better reason to make some random territorial claim than to some strait.

Mark Zuckerberg buys 440-acre Strancally castle estate in Ireland
Reply in thread
That is an exaggeration. While I can't comment on housing the economy is built on being a tax haven but isn't just that. There is a lot of employment in IT and Biotech and there are a lot of facilities actually based in Ireland, not just some office jobs for handling the tax evasion (that too of course).
The problem to me doesn't seem that long term unemployed aren't left to starve and die but a wrong housing policy and not even a joke of urban planning. It is what is happening when exploding real estate value is considerey a boon rather than a huge issue.

Let me guess, he is driving an oversized pickup truck with view lines worse than a German WII tank, right? Or am I haunted by prejudices?

I bought both late and enjoyed them both quite a bit. I would neither call best game ever but they were well worth the money at that point. Of course, it did not reach Witcher 3 in epic quality.

I think he just wants pedestrians to just not exist at all or maybe die trying to cross while traffic is flowing.

I just went back to SNES for a break and I am thoroughly enjoying it. It is not just nostalgia, as I never played RPGs back when the console was a thing. I don't even know what resolution I get there.

After Europe ditched Windows, China follows suit with its own home-grown Linux distros
Reply in thread
No Europe hasn't yet. But France is certainly as serious about it as China and it is halfway through creating feasible alternatives for the complete worklflow. Once that is fully implemtented it will get much easier for all the other member states and also "Brussels" itself to follow suit. Also , having this for state bureaucracy also makey private business application much easier.

It appears you are not the majority you think you are. You do not even consider that there are those, that bought only those games later, when they were fixed and tgey liked what they got.

That is why I am using Tumbleweed, rolling release without the expectation of reading news before hitting zypper dup and stuff still being fine. The price for that is a few days of delay for testing, so that major stuff does not break.

Interesting. There are so many quirks when you start looking at things closer. Sadly most of it is way over my head when it comes to the inner workings of these consoles.

Fairphone Is Finally Selling Its Repairable Phone in the US
Reply in thread
That is what turned me off choosing Graphene, other than having to buy Google hardware. They, but also some other Foss people, are investing way too much time attacking other alternatives fiercely, as if they were created by the devil, because they are not pure enough or because they are less secure than Graphene.

There is no concrete timeline yet as far as I know. So your guess is as good as mine. Bottom line if you want to use GrapheneOS now or in the near future you have to buy Google hardware which is a nogo for me, even if you rip out the OS.
