Elon Musk Offers to Also Ruin Wikipedia
Someone should tell Elon that an unprofitable website and a non-profit website are not the same thing.

What an astute observation! You are absolutely right, many people can confuse well written responses as AI and that can be frustrating. Simplifying the language is a great way to make your text seem more personal and human. Let me know if you need help with anything else!

Unity bosses sold stock days before development fees announcement

unfortunately there is a massive loophole that allows them to do this. what they do is set up sell orders at regular intervals (once a month or whatever) for months or years in advance. then when they decide they dont want to sell, they just cancel the order which is totally fine for them to do for some reason. if they do want to sell they just let the order execute and if anyone asks, they set it up a year ago and there is no possibility that the current decision could have influenced them into making that sell order a year ago.

No, Catholics really believe that those crackers and wine are physically transformed into the flesh and blood of christ. Other christians treat it as symbolic, but catholics are very literal about it.

It’s an insult to call this an article, is regurgitating some shit some dudes on twitter said.

As God is my witness, I didn't know earwigs could fly.
That is actually why they are called earwigs, its an old english word that’s describing the shape of their wings which kind of looks like a human ear.

Mathematician warns NSA may be weakening next-gen encryption
From what it sounds like, he’s not saying the algorithm is compromised itself, but rather that NIST is recommending a weaker version of it as sufficiently safe at (possibly) the request of the NSA. If that is the case we would know for sure pretty quickly once DISA updates their STIGs for internal use to include quantum resistant encryption. If the STIGs say to use a stronger version than NIST recommends then he was right.

Torvalds likes his computer quiet so that psu with so much overhead, the fan probably won’t ever turn on.

If LLMs have taught me anything, it’s that some people would enjoy that carbonated horse piss if a billionaire told them it was good.

E-bike environmental impact in comparison to other forms of transport
Reply in thread
its a play on words of the 2 main types of guitars (electric and acoustic) Basically a joke implying that if one type of bike is electric, the other must inherently be acoustic.

If you actually do have decades of fortran experience, work for NOAA. Their weather models are mostly fortran and they need engineers. Specifically the NOAA EPIC contract that i worked on previously definitely needs people knowledgeable in fortran and was 100% work from home. Feel free to DM me if you want more details.

How reddit crushed the biggest protest in its history: Did it, though?
Reply in thread
Migrations take time, it was never going to be a flick of a switch. Reddit content will slowly get worse and worse, and Lemmy content (or some other competitor) will get better and better as more people move. it’s those core users that generate great discussion that matter the most and those people are looking for somewhere else.

Discord will switch to temporary file links to block malware delivery
Reply in thread
unfortunately no, there are several communities where if i ask for some specific information, i am told to go onto the discord because there are guides and information there. specifically, i have noticed this a lot with mechanical keyboard communities, but i know it’s happening elsewhere too. I simply don’t understand it myself, trying to find something on these is like trying to find something in a twitch stream. it’s infuriating.

The 2026 Linux Summer Games - Dankpods compares performance in games across Windows and Linux on 12 machines
Reply in thread
I think it does show the typical experience. Its not a good test of linux systems, but it does show an accurate experience for a normal person trying out Linux on their existing hardware. These are exactly the problems unexperienced will run into. You see it all the time in help posts on linux communities. How we fix it, I’m not sure, but we shouldn’t deny that this is what its like for most people casually testing it out.
