Technology@lemmy.world•The Pollution Being Churned Out by AI Data Centers Is So Severe That It's Almost IncomprehensibleEnglish
1·21 days agoEvery company has to scramble for their share of the pie which shrinks by virtue of the collective scrambling in and of itself. I love feedback loops!

Linux@programming.dev•Have you ever been disappointed with Linux?
51·2 months agoPeople who make suggestions like this are missing the point.
Most people want their device and the programs on it to just work.
Not everyone needs to or wants to code every time they’re faced with a minor inconvenience.
I say this as someone who likes to tinker and code.
The graph gains a z axis, in both directions you get an equally-incoherent far-center

Technology@lemmy.world•Meta's AI Data Center Caught Infecting Town Water Supply With Deadly BacteriaEnglish
6·2 months agoI think the problem is that if the water got hot enough to kill the bacteria, it would mean the computers were running at temperatures hot enough that it would damage components on them (or at the very least reduce the lifespan of them).

The most terrifying thing to me about Nazism and fascism is that, by all psychological and otherwise measurable accounts, people who exhibit its traits are on the whole not that different from any other person you might find without them. Perhaps you could say they found a mental switch—a way of justifying their actions and behaviors—that forfeits one’s humanity in the process, but I believe this line of thinking is flawed.
No, I think Nazis are fully human, which condemns their depravity all the more. They don’t get to escape from the moral weight of what they’ve done by being stripped of the burdens and responsibilities of humanity. We cannot underestimate Nazis, or treat them as though they are mere animals or dumb cogs; they are an example of every single thing a person cannot be and also be allowed to live normal, quiet lives in a just world.
Nazism is a sort of evil that, from what we know, only humans are capable of.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•In some heavy Muslim countries women seems always to wear a black hijab and get in trouble for not wearing one. Why don't they wear colorful ones or with slogans? Is black all to wear?
31·3 months agoJust read through the article, Hudud appears to refer to a very specific range of crimes/offenses as laid out by the Qur’an, none of which include wearing a colorful hijab
There are certainly reasons women wouldn’t want to stand out, but I don’t think this is one of them lil goat

Technology@lemmy.world•Valve antitrust lawsuit reportedly reveals lengths Steam owner is willing to go to prevent cheaper prices elsewhereEnglish

Election boycotts require a mass movement to work, not just general disenfranchisement and non participation. Catalonia comes to mind, as controversial as that was by the “just vote” crowd when the referendums were making headlines. I can’t think of many places in the US where that sort of coordinated non-participation is even floated as an idea in the public consciousness. If you have any examples I’d be interested to hear though
You’re lucky if it’s only 5% in this economy!

You’re so right I bet there’s a boatload of training data on the open web about what 5th grade teachers are looking for when grading papers
