News just in, people are more productive using tools they’re familiar with.

I really like their local translation models. Simply saying “no AI!” feels very luddite to me for such a broad category.

I’m very much in the first camp and need to remind myself whenever I think about arriving due nuclear

Ye, we should keep appeasing Putin to avoid further escalations. Cause that worked the last time

Reading the article, they collect the data necessary to federate with an instance. If you or I were to run our own instance we would have access to the same data.

If they were to do anything with that data that they don’t have permission to do, like selling it. They would be in breach of the GDPR and fined 4% of their global annual income, and as we’ve seen with Apple, it’s not profitable to have two wildly separate versions of your product.

I’ve just finished watching Generation Kill on a Thinkpad T480s (i7-8650u). It was plugged into the TV, and it plus the laptops screen worked fine.

Running arch, gnome, wayland

It’s a systemd timer included within Arch that runs fstrim every week.

I mean, you’re reading it through the news.

Because it has the widest reach available.

Here’s an example image from the article.

I think the point they were making was that Gnome is made for a touchpad / keyboard driven approach, so complaining that it’s not something else or that it requires multiple extensions is pointless.

If you use 15 extensions to get your perfect desktop and don’t say a word, no-ones going to care, just don’t complain when it breaks.

large corporations have so much control and market share. It is these corporations that encourage regulations like this.

Exactly, like this. As I said, you can write regulations so that small business aren’t affected by these problems, have it so that if you operate under a certain threshold it doesn’t apply to your company, and when the company does give them ample time and warning of the changes that they need to make.

You seem to have this notion that laws can only be written in over-complicated lawyer speak, and to a certain extent in places like the US and EU it’s true, but it doesn’t have to. Let’s also reiterate that I’d rather a small business go bust, than continue to produce environmentally unfriendly products in the name of “competition”, due to the whole tens to hundreds of millions of people dying due to the effects of climate change.

Ye, let’s ignore climate change and kill millions of people so that small businesses can stay open.

Which is already not a definite fact, but even if it was the same regulations can be written in such a way that grants exceptions to small businesses and funding to alleviate retooling / development costs.

If your so worried about small businesses closing down because of regulations, a better way of dealing with it isn’t to stop all regulation.

I don’t think that people don’t like doing those jobs. I believe that it comes back to the toil aspect, since those jobs are undervalued the pay is low and the hours are long. The two solutions I see are:

1. People who would enjoy that kind of work, but don’t want to work the grueling hours will do it.

2. For things like harvesting, there was already a good (If inhumane) option, Serfs. You only need o harvest a couple times a year, so if you’re on UBI then a couple times a year everyone goes and harvests the fields.

There’s food that goes to waste all over the world. The main issue isn’t the lack of it, but how to get it where it needs to. People might be looking for animals to adopt while PETA euthanises the ones they receive not because they want to, but because the operational costs of shipping / holding until someone will pick up said animal would be unmanageable.

I’ve had this, it tastes like savory cream soda 3/10, 1/10 with rice.
