Except Mozilla has declining revenues.

Possibly even less money in the future if the Google antitrust suit bars them from paying Mozilla to place their search engine first.

And cryptocurrency mining. That drove a lot of GPU prices through the roof before the pandemic.

Also, most young kids play games on phones and tablets, because parents don’t need to buy an expensive console or PC.

Check this out this short by a game developer if you want to feel old…

Oh good, then twatter can now become as successful as Truth social…

Forum.Rojadirecta.es has nodes dedicated to pretty much any major sporting events: Soccer, NFL, MLB, F1, NBA, Rugby Union, et al.

Mostly they’re direct downloads from sites with way too much advertising, too many popups and misleading links, so they’re best handled with JDownloader2

Actual torrent links are available sometimes.

So they’re textualists until it applies to them…

“Engaged in insurrection” means exactly that.

It doesn’t mean they succeeded, it doesn’t mean they just thought about it, it certainly doesn’t say anything about an act of Congress.

He assembled the mob, and literally gave them their marching orders that January 6th.

If that isn’t worth at least a participation trophy, then I don’t know what is.

There are plenty of crops that have to be tended and harvested by hand: Most green leafy vegetables for example.

This opens those fields to dual use alongside power generation, which might reduce agricultural use of fossil fuels, and provide shade for field workers which is especially dangerous with climate change raising heat levels.

I disagree somewhat.

A lot of high tech development comes with a greed motive, e.g. IPO, or getting bought out by a large company seeking to enter the space, e.g. Google buying Android, or Facebook buying Instagram and Oculus.

And conversely, a lot of open source software are copies of commercially successful products, albeit they only become widely adopted after the originals have entered the enshittified phase of their life.

Is there a Lemmy without Reddit? Is there a Mastodon without Twitter? Is there LibreOffice without Microsoft Office and decades of commercial word processors and spreadsheets before that? Or OpenOffice becoming enshittified for that matter? Is there qBittorrent without uTorrent enshittified? Is there postgreSQL without IBM’s DB2?

The exception that I can see is social media and networked services that require active network and server resources, like Facebook YouTube, or even Dropbox and Evernote.

Okay, The WELL is still around and is arguably the granddaddy of all online services, and has avoided enshittification, but it isn’t really open source.

Depends on what exactly each poll is asking or saying.

If you go by popular vote, Biden could be well ahead in that demographic.

But 1) Not all young people vote, andas a whole they lag far behind compared to other age groups, particularly ages 45+

And 2) The popular vote is greatly negated by the electoral college.

So If you want to become President, one way is to appeal to what old people in Red states can be persuaded to believe.

Avistaz has the a great selection for Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Indian, Thai, Hong Kong content.

I’m neutral impoverished.

Insider spoke to six workers in tech who recently left Austin or are trying to relocate …

Green/florescent green pee that looks like Mountain Dew can be a sign of diabetes, or consuming more sugar than your body can handle.

Check with your doctor.

That Trump is actually paying his lawyers is the real news.

The corollary is “You get what you pay for”

Actually the atmosphere on the Borg planet didn’t look that great.

They’re not really into fresh air and suntans.

“Don’t open your eyes Marion!”

I think you’re misunderstanding what the article is saying.

You’re correct that it isn’t the job of a system to detect someone’s skin color, and judge those people by it.

But the fact that AVs detect dark skinned people and short people at a lower effectiveness is a reflection of the lack of diversity in the tech staff designing and testing these systems as a whole.

They staff are designing the AVs to safely navigate in a world of people like them, but when the staff are overwhelmingly male, light skinned, young and single, and urban, and in the United States, a lot of considerations don’t even cross their minds.

Will the AVs recognize female pedestrians?

Do the sensors sense light spectrum wide enough to detect dark skinned people?

Will the AVs recognize someone with a walker or in a wheelchair, or some other mobility device?

Toddlers are small and unpredictable.

Bicyclists can fall over at any moment.

Are all these AVs being tested in cities being exposed to all the animals they might encounter in rural areas like sheep, llamas, otters, alligators and other animals who might be in the road?

How well will AVs tested in urban areas fare on twisty mountain roads that suddenly change from multi lane asphalt to narrow twisty dirt roads?

Will they recognize tractors and other farm or industrial vehicles on the road?

Will they recognize something you only encounter in a foreign country like an elephant or an orangutan or a rickshaw? Or what’s it going to do if it comes across that tomato festival in Spain?

Engineering isn’t magical: It’s the result of centuries of experimentation and recorded knowledge of what works and doesn’t work.

Releasing AVs on the entire world without testing them on every little thing they might encounter is just asking for trouble.

What’s required for safe driving without human intelligence is more mind boggling the more you think about it.

The moment those Chinese EV startups enter the US market, Tesla will be in real trouble if they don’t have their product quality image problem fixed by then.

It’ll be like Detroit’s Big 3 automakers tanking when small fuel efficient Japanese cars landed in the 70s oil crisis.

Assuming those Chinese EV companies don’t have their own quality problems…

Get thee to eD2K.
They have a smattering of magazines back to the 70s. It’s far from a complete archive, and the scan quality varies tremendously but it’s there.

Otherwise, try to get an empornium account. Nearly everything porn ever is there.

To continue my travails:

Httrack didn’t do a great job: It was slow, even copying from the same machine, and it flattened the directory structure of the website it was writing, making it almost un-navigable.

Here’s where Cyotek WebCopy shines: It’s copying the website from SurfOffline’s database webserver quickly, so I should have the entire website re-extracted very soon!

That used to be true, and I keep Chrome and Edge installed just in case, but honestly I haven’t had to use a different browser in years.

Any web page problems that I found turned out not to be Firefox related.

But if you like Chrome, there’s nothing wrong with that either.
