  • America Isn’t Ready for What AI Will Do to Jobs

    Jump

  • The only thing I've found "AI music"good for is making unsettling endless droning. It's actually quite good at that.

    Perfect for a creepy pasta low effort YouTube bait game.

  • Ease of access to pipes and duct work. It's a FUCKING GOD SEND if you actually own your home.

  • Every Puerto Rican is an American citizen. Enjoy the Super Bowl.

  • This is actual "logic" my boss once used on this topic.

    Native Americans arnt real Americans because they have native in front of them. Why would you need a different word to describe them if they were real Americans?

    He's Mexican, came over illegally and married into citizenship basically.

    He also votes hard right maga and might be the dumbest man I've ever known.

  • TIL about Napple Tale: Arsia in Daydream

  • Came across her because of napple time. Her videos are fantastic! And kinda depressing.

  • Search anglospeak. It's that.

    Basically if someone's using ahh assuming they are like 14 or just actively retard. Either way you are right.

  • Personally, they should all just drink a cup of bleach. Not enough to permanently kill them, just enough to send them to the hospital and give them lifelong injuries.

    But I'm currently in a bad mood and just want to wish harm on stooped people. Possibly including myself as I in particularly retarded sometimes.

  • Recently started reading the primal Hunter book 13 and the author in the recap chapter at the start of the book just went off on a blind tangent pissed off about self-censorship and how retarded it is. It was the most cathartic thing I have read in a long time. Absolutely fantastic.

    Also, if you're a fan of lit RPG, highly recommend the primal Hunter books. Great reads! Fantastic audiobooks amazing narrator.

  • HP has laptop subscriptions now

    Jump

  • Dude if my parents could have paid 9.99 a month to keep my brother alive it would have saved them tens of thousands of dollars in medical bills.

    That kids every existence was antithetical to the concept of safety.

  • Discord faces backlash over age checks after data breach exposed 70,000 IDs

    Jump

  • An open source project that's easy to understand and use the sun. Will devour the Earth before that happens.

    Open source is great, but first and foremost it is unfortunately designed by coders and engineers, not user interface, designers and artists.

    In 20 years of self-hosting servers, apps and fiddling with things, I think I've come across maybe two programs ever that I could call easy to set up and use from an admin perspective.

    Such things just don't exist

  • You're more likely to see Wayland suddenly stop having in fighting and all simultaneously. Agree on every protocol going forward. Matrix having a frictionless client that is feature parody with discord.

    It's just not something that is likely ever going to happen. Matrix as a concept basically makes such a thing impossible.

  • Team speak 6. Still is missing basic features and has had quality of life and basic features open as requests for ever at this point and it's unlikely it's ever going to happen.

    Teamspeaks six's devs have also just pretty much made it clear they aren't really trying.

    If it works for you as it currently is great, it's acceptable and it's fine. It's team speaker works. But just like back in the day with TeamSpeak 3. The devs are slow, they don't do anything and they don't want to do anything. It's been a problem with the app literally since day one.

  • Screen sharing is broken. Group chats barely function. DMS are more or less non-existent in a realistic manner. Cross-platform voice chats break constantly audio capture with a bunch of different devices. Just straight up. Don't work. It crashes if you try and do s*** with certain games are open on Windows.

    And this is just what I've experienced using five or six of the most popular clients from matrix.

    Matrix is a pile of crap. It has been a pile of crap. It is unlikely to ever not be a pile of crap. It is basically only acceptable for people who get a boner over security and encryption and have no friends who don't also have a boner for security and encryption.

    It is The shining example of a application designed by engineers for engineers who have never talked to a normal person once in their entire life.

    The moment you try and get something like a game guild together in it it breaks and falls apart and s**** the bed. It cannot handle flexible groups like that. It is too overly complicated in the worst ways while also being too simple to be able to handle complicated tasks. It is such a weird catch-22 in almost every way.

    If you're trying to find a replacement for slack, maybe? But not discord.

  • Get back to me when it's remotely able to handle emojis, screen sharing cross platform, proper audio capture, reliable DMs and group chats.

    Element even shits the bed 95% of the time when you try to use it like a discord alterative.

    The fact people think matrix is remotely acceptable is just proof your avg user on lemmy has no fucking clue what your avg user wants or expects out of a chat/gamer platform.

    Matrix barely makes the bar for a replacement for a enterprise chat app. Let alone something aimed at more flexible groups and communities.

  • Mumble doesn't do screen sharing, matrix screen sharing barely works and flat out doesn't support Wayland and breaks with a number of games if your on windows. Basically making both not an option. No idea about mediamtx.

  • Gabe's son is set to inherit the family company. Remember steam is for all purposes a family business.

    Assuming Gabe retires in the next decade then his son works for 20-30 years we have another 30-40 years before steam goes to shit.

    Unless an out side force actively fucks with valve and Gabe's family to force things to become worse. It's unlikely it will get worse.

  • ... Steam is basically a family owned business it's literally the exact example of what a perfectly acceptable large business is.

    And fuck I ain't here cause I know something wrong. The fuck you get that idea from. I'm here because reddit doesn't have a good app that's literally it. I would happily go back to reddit if i could have my old app back.

    Lemmy has fuck all for communities, basically no users, and the majority of it is just regurgitated from reddit anyways. I could give less of a rats ass about the whole open source thing. It's neat and all from a novelty perspective.

    But frankly the hard on for open source this self hosted that is a massive nothing burger. Closed or open sources. What ever is the easier and more convenient option wins full stop.

    Lemmy won cause the apps were more convenient.

  • Labeled as coming soon for years. They ain't ever coming that dumpster fire of an app is spinning its wheels. Wayland development moves faster.

  • Leaving reddit for Lemmy is a solo thing. It's a personal choice, it doesn't effect the others around you at fucking all.

    Leaving discord for other services effects everyone around you a FUCKING LOT.

    That's the problem. You HAVE to bring your friends or not only are you giving up possibly the only way to communicate with them effectively but also fucking them over by basically threatening them with the loss of your friendship if they don't inconvenience themselves to try some stupid new app over a problem they don't see as remotely worth even giving a fuck about.

    This is the problem most of us have right now. I have 3 servers with a total over nearly 2000 users combined. All 3 are talking about moving but the bare BARE minimum requirements in features and platform support doesn't exist anywhere.

    Discord works on every OS with all its features basically. Not a single other platform can say that. Someone somewhere gets fucked because this or that is isn't fully supported. Or some key feature doesn't work right.
