AI is yet another technology that enables morons to think they can cut out the middleman of programming staff, only to very quickly realise that we're more than just monkeys with typewriters.

why the fuck did they re-enable autoplay? it was a terrible idea when they did it years ago and they quickly disabled it.

to medicine > to crack

You'd download legit trial versions of adobe shit and use GenP to disable the trial and call home functionalities. Brilliant bit of kit before I moved to Linux.

side note, it's badass to see a gpl3 licensed game on steam, and a paid one at that!

FWIW dual booting from the same physical drive is never a good idea in my experience. Even Linux-Linux dual booting is just asking for problems when one of them updates the grub configs and messes it up for the other.

Save yourself some sanity and move your Windows install to a new drive.

It's a clever solution but I did see one recently that IMO was more elegant for noscript users. I can't remember the name but it would create a dummy link that human users won't touch, but webcrawlers will naturally navigate into, but then generates an infinitely deep tree of super basic HTML to force bots into endlessly trawling a cheap-to-serve portion of your webserver instead of something heavier. Might have even integrated with fail2ban to pick out obvious bots and keep them off your network for good.

People are concerningly naive if they think the LLM is in any way connected to the tweet boosting algorithms. Grok is just spitting out what people usually claim is being delisted by social media platforms.

The thing is, it's probably correct by coincidence, moreso that it's Elon personally delisting people criticising him and boosting whatever nazi shit he's into that week.

one less wankpanzer on the road, just a shame a bridge had to be put in harms way to do so.

potential explanations:

it's him and he genuinely wasn't running (as his confession suggests), whilst also being chased by the police surveillance state, so even if he was running it would take meticulous planning to truly avoid the cops.

it's him and he planned to get caught and the confession, the inconsistencies etc. are intended to make prosecuting him "without a doubt" incredibly difficult. You can bet money on his lawyer knowing a lot of these inconsistencies too, and exploiting them in court.

it's him but he's trying to obscure his motives etc. for [reason]. (unlikely)

it isn't him but a lookalike who's being framed for it because of [conspiracy theory]. (unlikely)

it isn't him but a lookalike who framed themselves for [reason]. (unlikely)

my friends complaining that my plex server because I left my phone on the bus and it ran out of charge

Fascinating stuff. I'm glad we're entering this new era of Linux application compatibility! And all through the honorable work of developers who are doing stuff just for the fun of it.

Hector and others were really bad losses for the Rust kernel devs but Lina? That's catastrophic. She was a figurehead in getting apple silicon working so well on Linux that even Linus moved his development machine to an M1 Macbook.

Linus has royally fucked it with how long he sat on the side of this. Im so sorry to Lina and others who have been burned by this community.

thats like the only thing that would've made this better bro

Brave marketing has gone crazy to convince people it's less dodgy than Firefox. Come on!

"dead internet theory" is great until the users start acting like it's not a symptom of the platforms they're using, and just the reality for all of the internet.

Reddit, Instagram, Facebook are all websites struggling to maintain user counts which bring ad revenue and investment. Since investors and ad platforms can't tell between real and fake users, there is MASSIVE incentive to allow bots on your website.

Moreso for sites like Reddit and Twitter that shit all over their user base and had to quickly mask their haemorrhaging support before the shareholders could complain.

Greg is a great level head in the kernel regarding rust, at least among the senior maintainers. I hope he can convince some of the more hostile maintainers to accept the new status quo that includes Rust in the Kernel at all levels.

rust Vs c drama getting out of hand

Lemmy dot world definitely doesn't circlejerk, no siree.

it's a shame it has come to this. there needs to be some tough conversations on how the Linux kernel wants to be run over the next 5 years

"But they're just TV shows" "it's not that deep" etc. I would implore you to listen to this excellent episode of Citations Needed..

It covers how modern cop shows were invented directly to counter shows that portrayed defence lawyers as the protagonists, along with a general push to lionize the police state despite its inability to prevent crime or deliver real justice.
