  • ‘Bizarre and wrong’: Danish zoo sparks debate after asking people to donate their pets to feed animals

    Jump

  • Honestly if you want to eat meat as an adult, I feel like you should have to get a carnivore licence by killing and cooking an animal yourself. And I say this as a meat-eater. Non-farmers are far too detached from the circle of life to have opinions on this kind of thing.

  • Australia Completely Loses The Plot, Plans To Ban Kids From Watching YouTube

    Jump

  • Is this social media under-16 ban going to be a problem for aussie.zone?

  • Sea of people march across Sydney Harbour Bridge calling for an end to killing in Gaza

    Jump

  • Great that people are showing support, and I understand the choice of the Sydney Harbour Bridge as symbolic, but that seemed like a very dangerous choice of venue for a crowd of unknown size until the day!

  • Best game engine to start with as a beginner to gamedev and linux?

    Jump

  • If you're looking at collaborating in game jams, you'll find it handy to have some Unity, Unreal Engine and Godot under your belt. Don't worry about becoming an "expert" at any of them, just do a few intro tutorials and read the starter docs on each.

  • Mark Zuckerberg writes a manifesto on bringing AI "superintelligence" to everyone to improve humanity, but doesn't even define what superintelligence means.

  • I'm sorry, what happened to the metaverse Zuck?

  • Texas Schools Add Attack Drones To Protect Students

    Jump

  • This is ridiculous. Clearly the solution is for Elon Musk's Boring Company to build Hyperloops underneath each school, to allow students to escape quickly in their Teslas.

  • Another Google Pixel 6a catches fire after battery-nerfing update

    Jump

  • EU age verification app to ban any Android system not licensed by Google

    Jump

  • It hurt itself in its confusion!

  • JetBrains working on higher-abstraction programming language

    Jump

  • But also, a lot of programming languages exist simply because a programmer really wanted to write a programming language.

  • UK, France and 23 other countries say the war in Gaza ‘must end now’

    Jump

  • For Russia: economic sanctions

    For Israel: stern letter

  • Canyon overhauls the Grizl gravel bike and gives it a crazy new handlebar

    Jump

  • It looks like they slapped a turd emoji in the center of the cockpit.

  • Complete skeleton of medieval knight found under former ice cream parlor in Poland

    Jump

  • "If I can pull this off, I'll have free ice-cream for life!"

  • Ukrainians unimpressed by Trump's 50-day ultimatum to Putin

    Jump

  • "I'm going to count down from 10, and if you haven't stopped invading Ukraine and are back in Russia tucked in bed, you're going to be in BIG TROUBLE!"

  • Japan using generative AI less than other countries

    Jump

  • Not that surprising considering Japanese government only retired floppy disks in 2024 and fax machines are still in widespread use there.

  • Israeli attacks on southern Lebanon kill three people

    Jump

  • Perhaps if you're at war with every country around you, you're the problem.

  • I'm putting my tin foil hat on and want to join the world of Linux, however I make music in Ableton. Do I just need to dual boot or does anyone have a better solution?

    Jump

  • Yeah that sounds about right - VST is such an awful standard, and is only made worse by all the copy protection nonsense that companies pile on top of it. I wish there was an open standard that was cross-platform, portable and used PGP encryption for standard licencing, but alas, it's too late for that.

  • I'm putting my tin foil hat on and want to join the world of Linux, however I make music in Ableton. Do I just need to dual boot or does anyone have a better solution?

    Jump

  • I'm quite surprised Ableton haven't released a Linux version yet. They would have had to do some of the legwork to stand up Ableton Push.

  • Deleted

    Permanently Deleted

  • Honestly, I wouldn't trust most commercial VPNs these days, especially the ones that are nearly always on 100% discount sales. If they're not making their revenue from customers, they must be making it some other way. And that's a mighty fine data set they're sitting on.

  • Apple just proved AI "reasoning" models like Claude, DeepSeek-R1, and o3-mini don't actually reason at all. They just memorize patterns really well.

    Jump

  • I'd love to see these complexity results compared against humans for a laugh.
