Yeah, this just allows people to know that their content is really from the US government. Not verifying them seems like a worse alternative for everyone.
They have bonkers profit margins too. 38% in 2023. They're in the same category as Microsoft or Google when it comes to profitability. Absolutely insane for a company that's supposed to disseminate scientific information.
I think it's a little kid asking if Minecraft on Xbox could be made free to keep for 5 days as a promotion. Probably just can't afford it because he's 10 and barely knows how to spell lol.
Hex bugs were my shit. Each one was unique not because of the patterns, but because of tiny manufacturing tolerances changing their movements, and I thought that was cool as fuck.
They still exist and will continue to exist in many contexts indefinitely, such as men's fashion and clock towers, so there it's not like they'll ever be "obsolete" per se. They are also extremely easy to learn, and are a good way to teach concepts like spatial reasoning and gears to kids. I think schools should teach about them for those reasons.
It's the norm now. Firefox already only has 3% market share, if they don't keep up with modern features then they'll probably just die out altogether. Doesn't matter if it's popular with FOSS evangelists or the anti-AI crowd, they'll still use FF because it's better than any alternative for their purposes.
It's not racist to take issur with illegal immigration.
It's just not right to oppose the immigrants as people, or say that their situation is the result of some moral failing. These people make the best decisions for themselves and their families.
It becomes racist when you start attributing characteristics or behaviors to their race as fundamental attributes.
On Lemmy, everyone will say AMD. On the rest of the net most people will probably say Intel+Nvidia. Difference is just the software that's available. I would go with the AMD one personally.
Same to all of that
