  • I’m switching over to Babbel when my duo subscription lapses in the fall, much less gamified, actual human speakers for the language I want to learn, and they aren’t trying to shovel AI into everything like duo is

  • Streak addiction is real, I had one Snapchat streak years ago that was over 1500, the person it was with and I would send one snap a day of nothing really just to keep the streak going. It got to the point that the one snap was the only time I communicated with that person, and it was honestly a relief when the streak finally lapsed. I had a few times where I was camping with no signal and would literally go on hikes with no destination just to find phone signal to send my daily snap to them.

    Number go up makes monkey brain happy, even when you’re aware of how dumb it is.

  • It’s time to bring back the Colbert Report

  • When they rolled out the update that removed the toggle for it, I remember seeing steps for how to disable it via regedit or tools which would do that for you, all with the warnings of future updates may re-enable it.

    I haven’t moved from W10 yet so I’m kinda ootl on it, but that’s what I remember

  • Some good discussion from /c/3dprinting@lemmy.world about how it really isn’t as dependable/tracable as the article says:

    https://lemmy.world/post/33199760

    TLDR is 3D printing typically uses brass nozzles which wear down over time which will change marks left over time, your bed leveling can change over time, and the “fingerprints” the article talks about can be avoided by just printing in different positions/rotations on the bed.

  • Its also worth noting that the service skips end-to-end encryption "to improve speed and compatibility across browsers", … according to MEGA, files stay encrypted while stored and are only decrypted temporarily in server memory … this model may not meet the needs of users who require strict zero-access encryption.

    Oof

    Also only free until next year

  • According to the suit, Ramacciotti was in need of money, and had a friend named Ethan Lipnik who worked at Apple as a software engineer on the Photos team – two facts that Prosser was aware of when he allegedly offered to pay Ramacciotti to break into Lipnik's development iPhone and show Prosser what the version of iOS running on the device looked like.

    Ramacciotti, who frequently stayed at Lipnik's home, allegedly used location-tracking software to determine when Lipnik was far enough from home to be gone for an extended period. During such windows, he allegedly used the opportunity to obtain the passcode and access the device.

    Apple isn’t a very pro WFH or remote work company from what I learned when I was job hunting, I’m honestly surprised they let a dev iPhone leave their campus.

  • I love wizards with guns, they’re worth binging if you haven’t seen them before

  • Takedown requests from Games Workshop are nothing new, though. The company was an early player fighting the sharing of 3D printable models based on its intellectual property (IP) – even those shared for free

    So they can turn around and charge ridiculous prices for minis.

    GA’s stuff is all cosplay, so it doesn’t even touch that market, you’d think they’d want creators doing stuff like this because that’s how you get new players and fans

  • I liked my 13” pro for school and have had it for ten years, easy to fit on desks and still have space for a notebook, also if you every plan to use it on flights the 15 is big enough to be pretty awkward.

    I don’t use my 13 with monitors very much, so I’m looking at sizing up to a 16” this year. If you plan on primarily having it connected to monitors then a bigger screen on the laptop itself probably won’t matter to you.

  • I said dock but hub is probably the better word, actual docks are so expensive

  • Sadly no, but I use it closed and attached to a dock 90% of the time, so it doesn’t bug me too much

  • Season 2 is only available on streaming at the moment, not expecting the physical release until the holidays at the earliest

  • Loosely related but the blu-ray release of S2 cannot come soon enough

  • Mid-2015 MBP with an i5 and 8 GB RAM checking in, I have loved this poor machine to death and use it daily for coding and hobby game dev, but it is finally time to upgrade. I’m planning on getting a very spec’d out 16 inch of whatever comes out in the fall.

    Work got me a 16 inch with an M4 Pro and I love it so much.

  • O7

  • I went to look at their other videos and their second most recent one is the same moving company nine months ago lol

  • My first thought is actually getting the corrosive substance onto enough of the concrete would be difficult, assuming they aren’t able to penetrate the concrete then they have to rely on it seeping from the ground, or if they can penetrate then the substance is only really going to be in the chamber where the buster detonated.

    I have zero experience with ordnance or busting bunkers though so that’s just a shot in the dark

  • “Are you with us?”

    “No”
