  • Linus Tech Tips did a video on having windows alongside macOS on the smae machine. They did it by having both as VMs on a barebones linux machines. Theoretically you could then dedicate each one of the operating systems to an OS, and run linux, windows, and mac side by side. My guess kn feasibility: very hard.

  • You need a graphics card or smth to even have the ability to have >3 displays. Some Macbooks have a 2 screen limit, so if you want to use only external monitors you have to close the lid. PC graphics generally allow at least 3 screens. But thunderbolt usb is an option.

  • Well but as far as I am aware Lemmy has no fiduciary responsibility, as it is not a corporation, is open source and uses a web standard to communicate. Therefore there is no requirement for instance server managers to use the "official" version of Lemmy and could refuse to implement anti-user features, like specific app requirements. So I would say it would be really really hard to enshittificate Lemmy, if not borderline impossible, because users would just use their own fork, which would still be interoperable.

  • And the complete absurdity of Trump's SCOTUS voting 9-0 for returning him home and Trump just said nah...

  • Considering that if the US started to support NK against South Korea, I don't think it is inconceivable that they would become just one Korea. (By North overrunning South)

  • Colours

    Jump

  • They are combination of colors rather than a specific wavelength. (Similar to white, which is combination of all of them)

    Any of the colors can theoretically be created using a combination of multiple colors (see RGB)

  • Nothing teases dedicated camera button for Phone (3a)

    Jump

  • Even better would be, to be able to program it for anything, not only camera usage (Apple doesn't allow apps on Appstore with usage other than for camera control)

  • Google must sell Chrome to end search monopoly, justice department argues in court filing

    Jump

  • Well, it mostly already is. The Chromium project is essentially everything Chrome already has, except Chrome contains a few proprietary components (IIRC the tracking is proprietary)

  • Americans in Puerto Rico can't vote for US president. Their anger at Trump is shaping the race

    Jump

  • IIRC if DC became a state, only specific federal buildings, such as the white house, scotus & the capitol buildings would remain as a territory (due to the constitution), but, because of a amendment to the us constitution giving DC the same amount of voters _(members of the electoral college)_for the president as the lowest-representation (essentially always 3), which only citizens living inside the area would be allowed to vote for, only the citizens of white house would be able to vote for 3 whole electors.

    I might be incirrect, as I am not a US citizen, but I've seen this mentioned somewhere long ago

  • It's true.

  • Funny how imaginary numbers were invented to solve cube roots, but the most common give example (& definition) uses square root.

  • Slovakia supports Hungary's veto of EUR 50 billion of aid for Ukraine

  • The worst part is, that the people who voted for them are ashamed of their vote, because they either refused or lied on exit polls. At least now everyone can see how the government is making clowns of themselves (the speaker of the parliament drove into a traffic pole while drunk last week for example), they don't act on their promises, argue with each other and lie. There are constant protests in the two largest cities of Bratislava and Košice, where many people gather to show the disagreement with the coalition and ridicule the politicians. A new meme emerged in the past few days about the fact, that more people signed a petition to remove the new minister of health from the office in a day, than the amount who voted for her in the election. There's also an observable difference between what people in large cities and foreign mail-in voters vote for and what people from villages with worse access to information and who are targeted by the adverts and propaganda by the populist extremist politicians vote for. Also the opposition is theoretically more favoured than the current coalition, but because there are many different parties, the votes get split and many parties don't get through the threshold that is needed for them to be even a part of the parliament and their seats get assigned to the ones who get there. We would probably benefit a lot from some kind of ranked-choice voting. We will see what happens in the upcoming presidential elections. At least it is a 2 round election, so the split opposition can get behind a common favourite.

  • Why can't you restrict usage if you don't comply with local laws? Why can companies like Facebook restrict usage of their new features like Threads in the EU then? Or some US news network restricting access from the EU?

  • Wikimedia Foundation calls on US Supreme Court to strike laws that threaten Wikipedia

    Jump

  • But, like when they would say in their EULA, that people from Texas and Florida are not allowed, then by using the service would be breaking of EULA and the wikipedia foundation could theoretically say that they're not operating there and it's the users fault. Like could someone still sue them then?

  • What would happen, if they ignored the laws and did not geoblock Texas and Florida, just say they don't operate there, but not restrict the users and still operate the way they operated until now?
