  • VCs are starting to partner with private equity to buy up call centers, accounting firms and other "mature companies" to replace their operations with AI

    Jump

  • They're VCs, they're not here for the long run: they'll replace the employees with AI, make record profits for a quarter, and sell their shares and leave before problems make themselves too noticeable to ignore. They don't care about these companies, and especially not about the people working there

  • Snout stretchers really are an incredible invention

    4 pigeons found glued on top of wall; Hong Kong police suspect animal abuse

  • Let's assume plant cruelty is a thing, for the sake of argument. About 50% of cereals produced, and a 3rd of all crop land are used to feed livestock.

    Yet livestock account for 17% of the world calories

    The best way to reduce "plant harm" is to remove meat consumption. Bonus points for stopping animal cruelty, reducing transport of gigatons of freight, reducing deforestation & even returning land to wilderness

  • That doesn't work. Data can and has been deanonymized previously. It's still very much unsafe if it falls in the wrong hands

  • Illinois prosecutors weigh hate crime charges after lesbian attacked at McDonald's

    Jump

  • They knew she was a girl, they attacked her not because of accusing her of being trans, but just because she is lesbian

  • That is the way

  • Nah, I always cd to full path, that way I can easily use my history to move back there

  • Well I know iphones are great quality devices & have long lasting support, but if I can't tinker with it then to me it's hardly better than a gilded brick

    By "tinker with it" I mean installing apps like youtube revanced, playing morrowind, having access to a terminal etc

  • I think it has more to do with compute speed. I have a trash camera but high-end CPU on my device, QR codes are instantaneous

  • all that effort and all I care about is scanning QR codes :(

  • 100% with you on this. All I need is a QR code scanner. I don't care about the pixel count, I want everything in my phone to be in performance / screen quality

  • heh it truly depends on a lot of factors. I don't want to "cheap out" on a high-end windows laptop, their thermals are shit, the battery life is non-existent, the keyboard is trash, and the computer frame are rarely decent.

    A macbook is expensive, yes, but I've never experienced having to doubt the hardware, or get weird issues with it. It's a peace of mind I'm willing to pay a premium for. I even have a mac mini as a server for the extremely low power consumption & extremely good CPU performance (seriously, this thing competes with i9s for a fraction of the power (I'm exclusively interested in single thread applications))

    As for iphones & apple watches, I like to tinker with my stuff way too much for them to make sense to me (which my macbook allows me to do as much as I want)

    I'm exclusively talking about my experience with apple silicon, idk how it was before the M1 chips came out.

  • How Times Change...

  • well no, but neither are some of the examples in the meme (such as solaris), it's still UNIX though

  • Israeli ex-general removed from reserves for condemning 'killing babies as a hobby'

  • The only civil war that could possibly happen is between netanyahu and people thinking he's not genociding hard enough.

    I see way too many people thinking israel is somehow a dictatorship and the fault for the genocide is with the government, when the most widespread criticism of israel's government by israelis is that the government is not "doing enough". The country is rotten to the core, as are all ethnostates

  • $80 for Borderlands 4 too costly? Randy Pitchford says, "If you're a real fan, you'll find a way to make it happen"

  • Holy shit, I knew about the "magic trick" girl and thought he was a quirky funny man, but assaulting an artist to force them to work for free? What a fucking asshole

  • Yeah I call "don't judge a book by the cover" on this one.

    The video is great, and (from the perspective of someone who never took opioids) tells why heroin/fentanyl feels good and why it will destroy you.

    It also highlights that a lot of people who take fentanyl (and even die from it) are drugged by unscrupulous dealers who spike their stuff with it

  • Which distribution should I recommend to beginners to scare them?

  • Honestly the only thing you should probably understand before going with arch is how to properly use the CLI, then the wiki is a breeze

  • These kind of posts will, sometime in the future, be referenced in a memorial of some sort as complacency in the face of crimes against humanity.

    History will not look kindly at you.
