  • Though I can say I haven't heard of any new phone features that made me care. I did purchase a new phone in the past year, but that was about wanting to get out of google's ecosystem before they finish building the wall around their garden.

    So, for me at least, at this point it's more about avoiding anti features than looking for a shiney new feature.

    I'm really not sure what a phone could even offer as a new thing to get me interested at this point. And I wonder if that will eventually be 6G (or newer) when they shut down the 5G networks.

  • That's disappointing that they have different methods for each physical layer. That should be handled on the link layer using common methods once the physical layer is able to send bits back and forth.

    Getting an IP address shouldn't be affected by whether it will be transmitted using fibre, dsl, cable, a 56k line, a quantum teleporter, signal fires, or carrier pigeons.

  • I mean, if there's only three ways, couldn't routers be set up to just try all three to see which works? Or if they each need specific parameters that aren't discoverable, have a form that takes all of them but says "just enter what your ISP gives you, the others are optional". Or set it up such that the client can just get whatever information it needs from the server to communicate with other nodes beyond the server. IPv4 has DHCP. Is there something in the way of applying a similar solution to IPv6?

  • I am sorry, but everyone is getting syntax highlighting wrong

    Jump

  • Yeah, if I want to know what the colour is to find other instances of that thing easier, it takes 2 seconds to determine the colour. But I can't remember ever actually doing that.

    That retunr typo will be caught by the compiler. That's what pass 1 is pretty much for, spell and syntax check.

  • I disagree that it's unhelpful. I'll agree that it's not an easy thing like "just smile more, you'll get laid!" But step 1 for any incel to actually get laid would be to stop being a fucking incel and recognize that no one owes them sex, affection, or even a moment of their time to hear them out or explain why they won't.

    If you choose to wallow in something, whether it be inceldom or depression, you're going to find it very difficult or impossible to come out of that.

  • on manosphere and incel culture

    Jump

  • Yeah, inceldom is a mindset, choosing to be bitter about their state of affairs and lash out at others for not wanting them. I don't frequent their areas, but some of them blame various ratios of their facial positioning when their face is fine, it's just their attitude that is shitty.

    I guess it could be argued how much one can change their personality to be less off-putting, but I've known some real ugly dudes that have had fine dating lives.

  • There's at least one individual inside the company that was involved in that decision. They should all have liability here, as individuals.

    Jump

  • I've wondered for a while if something like this is why Google allowed their bootloaders to be unlocked, because they can get at everything anyways.

    And I bet that if that was the case, they've backed off that for future phones because of those stories about law enforcement seeing having those phones as suspicious, which could hurt sales, since I bet the majority of pixel users don't switch operating systems.

  • Though iirc a system crash report can include a kernel dump, which can contain things like private keys.

    Though realistically, Microsoft controls your OS. They could easily add code to allow them to grab whatever they want from your system without any logging (by your system anyways).

    That actually makes me wonder if there are any apps that run on both a system and the router that system is connected to to determine if the internet traffic as reported by the system (to the user) is the same as what the router sees as a way to detect anything using network resources but bypassing the normal network stack.

  • Yeah, as I understand it, the elevator will refuse to move instead of collapse, and hopefully you're not between floors when it happens because it was close and someone shifted their weight or bounced slightly or they might write a sitcom episode about what happens next (and the reality will be far more boring).

  • You can have fun with this by finding contexts that make their response sound silly for "what you were going to say". Kinda like Pinky and the Brain's "Are you thinking what I'm thinking, Pinky?" "I think so, but how will we convince the flies to put on the tiny shoes, Brain?"

    As an aside, am I the only one who always thought Alfred was kinda a piece of shit for that story? Like a lot of Batman stuff hasn't aged well, but even when I first watched that movie, going scorched earth for a jewel thief was fucked up.

    Some people want to watch the world burn. Alfred actually did set their world on fire and watched it burn.

  • That's why I find the idea of heaven to be self-contradictory.

    One person's idea of heaven might be one where they don't need to worry about others wanting sex with them. Another's might be one where everyone is happy to have sex with them. And another might be most happy in a monogamous relationship where they are with their partner and no one else is even interested in their partner. (Also what about widows and widowers who remarry?)

    Or hell, a simpler example: three people, one of which considers the other two their very best friends while the other two only like that one and would rather not spend time with each other.

    So unless there's a new version of heaven for each set of desires (maybe even with a version of you that is happy there, to make those who want to be with you in that heaven happy), the whole thing will be great for some but probably miserable for many more (because you can't please everyone), which defeats the entire premise of paradise for everyone.

    Not that this disproves anything, for all I know the many versions one might be the case or maybe heaven exists but is only fun for some people (which honestly is consistent with how religion generally works on earth anyways).

    Edit: fixed a word, plus added the bit about widows.

  • We put the Thing That Can't Do Numbers™ in your spreadsheets

    Jump

  • I don't think that's right.

    You are absolutely correct, I see where I made an error by treating 1, 2, and 3 each like different things. The correct answer is 123. I've updated the spreadsheet to reflect this and also cleared out the original data since we have the sum and no longer need it.

    Now to send the spreadsheet to India to verify the answer.

    Copilot wants your permission to send this file to India.

    Reject

    Ok, I won't send your copy. But I really want to verify my change, so I've taken the liberty of sending Microsoft's copy. Don't worry, I did see that this is a financial spreadsheet and am submitting your information for credit locks because it's already been sold.

    Oops! There was a problem performing that last action! (Blocked. Note: Who the hell taught copilot to do this? This exposes us to fraud lawsuits from those we sold the data to.)
