  • Linux May Be the Best Way to Avoid the AI Nightmare

    Jump

  • Linux is close, but has some core flaws that will forever keep it out of mainstream acceptance by your average user.

    It has nothing to do with any flaws within Linux itself. The problem is and has always been that it's nearly impossible to buy a PC with any flavour of Linux pre-installed. Until that changes, Linux (on home user desktops) will never gain mainstream acceptance.

  • TRUMP GUILTY ON ALL 34 COUNTS

    Jump

  • I doubt he goes to prison. People who get in trouble for this sorta thing tend to not go to prison.

    Trump's lawyer and fixer got 3 years in jail already for this crime. It was also his first offence. It would be pretty unfair to send the monkey to jail and not the organ grinder for the same crime.

    You're probably right though, Trump is clearly getting special treatment because of his proclivity to stochastic terrorism.

  • Biden pledges to name progressives to the Supreme Court, suggesting he expects vacancies

    Jump

  • I read this in the voice of the alien from omicron persei 8 on Futurama

  • Report: Microsoft to face antitrust case over Teams

    Jump

  • Maybe it’s anticompetitive conduct by the provider (like Microsoft using its market power on Outlook/Exchange to push other services like Teams over its competition)

    That's exactly what it is. They leveraged their dominance/monopoly in one market to gain a stranglehold on another market. It's not exactly a new tactic for Microsoft either.

  • The idea that the Manor Lords dev should 'just hire 50 people' to update it faster is 'fundamentally not the way things work,' says publisher

    Jump

  • It's an argument about critical paths in a project. Also, is no-one going to credit "The Mythical Man Month" where this quote comes from?

  • Trump hush-money trial judge signals he may fine him again over gag order

    Jump

  • It’s not worth the risk of giving the defense cause for mistrial by jumping to jail time too quickly

    He's already been fined for 9 counts of contempt of court, would prison time after that really count as "going too quickly" ?

  • Elon Musk publicly dumped California for Texas—now Golden State customers are getting revenge, dumping Tesla in droves

    Jump

  • If I were on Tesla's board, I would be doing my best to get Elon the hell away from the brand.

  • David Pecker testimony at Trump trial reveals the seedy underbelly of his tabloid journalism

    Jump

  • Pecker by name eh?

  • ByteDance won't sell TikTok, would rather pull it from the US

    Jump

  • That's interesting, what's so clever or original about its algorithm?

  • Judge upholds $83m E Jean Carroll defamation verdict against Trump

    Jump

  • This is the 2nd defamation trial (the first being 5 million iirc). The 400+ million one was the NY fraud trial for inflating the value of his properties. It is hard to keep track of them :)

  • Ukraine war: Kyiv uses longer-range US missiles for first time

    Jump

  • Aren't Storm Shadows the British missiles? And we already gave them to Ukraine ages ago. I think the German ones are called Taurus?

  • Migrants get visas for being "victims" of Ron DeSantis

    Jump

  • Will DeSantis be prosecuted for these crimes? Seems like America struggles with justice when it comes to right-wing, white assholes.

  • What is the last video game that you were completely hooked on?

    Jump

  • No, they're nearly all standalone. Tales of Arise is great too.

  • What is the last video game that you were completely hooked on?

    Jump

  • Tales of Berseria. I loved the 40 hours I spent with Velvet and friends, but that ending really upset me and I couldn't stop thinking about it after.

  • European car safety body is coming for touchscreens. The European New Car Assessment Programme mandates that key controls need physical buttons or switches

    Jump

  • All of the functions described in the article are already on physical buttons and stalks in the Polestar 2 (I have one), so not sure how this is going to change anything? I'll agree that some of its error reporting and collision avoidance in particular are almost dangerous in their implementation, but that has no bearing on the physical buttons thing.

  • “the lesson I'm choosing to take from xz, as an oss maintainer, is that anyone trying to pressure or guilt me into doing something should immediately be told no, for security reasons”

  • This website that threatens anyone who right clicks

    Jump

  • It's a bootstrap modal, not an alert. In Firefox you can just hold shift when right clicking to bypass the js events and show the menu anyway.

  • Mozilla lays off 60 people, wants to build AI into Firefox
