    A Coup Is In Progress In America

    Jump

  • I thought coups are generally illegal and involve a military action.

    This just looks like a legally elected politician doing exactly what he promised.It may not be good things, but none of that was unexpected.

  • China’s DeepSeek AI poses formidable cyber, data privacy threats

    Jump

  • I don't think being open matters here, it's the part where it's developed by big bad China.

    All of these threats apply to other LLMs as well.

  • What games did you find confusing to buy?

    Jump

  • Calling that Hitman bullshit "confusing" is way too charitable.

    Not too long ago Steam listed something called "Hitman 3" (they changed it now).Imagine my surprise when it turned out to include only the game launcher, without any actual content that could be reasonably called "Hitman 3". If you tried to start a mission they redirected you to buy it first...

    Thank god for the refunds...

  • Netflix does it again. Record subscriber gains.

    Jump

  • I was in a similar situation, I just told them I'm cancelling the account when they added the extra charge for extra users, and they're free to make their own account if they want.

    There was a bit of complaining, but it turns out no one missed Netflix enough to come back.

  • Firefox's Profiles get a huge upgrade with easier Profile Creation, Switching and Customization

    Jump

  • Hopefully it's not an actual regression in the latest version, because that'd be terrible.

  • i can't tell if Harrier Du Bois would make banging weed brownies or absolute dogshit ones

    Jump

  • Let's not. I'm not particularly interested in getting baited into a silly Internet argument.

    I recommend you look up the definition of "discrimination" in a dictionary, tho.

  • i can't tell if Harrier Du Bois would make banging weed brownies or absolute dogshit ones

    Jump

  • You don't have to be an asshole, you know.

    Why is it your default assumption that everyone who disagrees with you is a middle aged white man?And why do you act as if calling someone that is an insult?

  • i can't tell if Harrier Du Bois would make banging weed brownies or absolute dogshit ones

    Jump

  • I don't think she knows what "generic" means, or maybe everyone I know in real life is very unique...

  • Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket (OVA) - What do you think of this one?

    Jump

  • Well, yeah, it's not specifically the age that's the problem.

    But you gotta admit, the original 79 wasn't exactly the pinnacle of anime when it aired, and it really shows by now.I actually watched it last year for the first time, and it was fairly difficult to get through.

  • Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket (OVA) - What do you think of this one?

    Jump

  • Exactly what I'd say.

    This OVA is nearly 40 years old now, so I don't think there's any way it could live up to any hype without nostalgia filter.

  • NVIDIA launches GeForce RTX 50 “Blackwell” series: RTX 5090 costs $1,999 USD

    Jump

  • Last I checked 7900 GRE looked good for perf/price ratio.

    But I'd wait for AMD to finally announce details and pricing for new gen, I think it's a bad moment to buy a new GPU until all Nvidia and AMD announcements are done.

  • NVIDIA launches GeForce RTX 50 “Blackwell” series: RTX 5090 costs $1,999 USD

    Jump

  • Or you could consider alternatives, since Nvidia abusing their market position and customers not caring is exactly why the prices keep going up.

  • Generative A.I. a Parasitic Cancer

    Jump

  • Yeah, I tried it for a bit 1 or 2 years ago and didn't see much difference.

    Only cool thing was the automatic summaries with sources, but the I found out LLM summaries are like everything else "AI" - unreliable, at best, so...

  • Generative A.I. a Parasitic Cancer

    Jump

  • And besides... aren't AI features getting pushed in Kagi heavily?

    Weird idea to use it as an argument against Google and DDG, but conveniently ignore it for Kagi.

  • Over 30 Anime Piracy Websites Shut Down This Month - A Major Blow to Illegal Streaming

    Jump

  • I mean... when did it stop being huge?

    It's just back to business as usual.

  • Android 16 will let apps block AI writing tools

    Jump

  • I'm sure that's not gonna get misused. /s

    I'm not a fan of LLMs, but an app has absolutely no business deciding what input method I use.

    This feels too similar to completely idiotic practice of blocking the copy-paste of credentials and disallowing password managers in certain apps/websites.

  • OpenSUSE package maintainer removes Bottles’ donation button with "dont-support.patch" file

    Jump

  • Yes, and another big difference is that Bottles refuses to provide any kind of help to package maintainers.According to maintainers' comments on the Github project, they have to figure out how to build it by trial and error.

    I was actually really surprised that there's isn't any kind of build documentation.It's pretty unusual.

  • OpenSUSE package maintainer removes Bottles’ donation button with "dont-support.patch" file

    Jump

  • I don't think it's understandable in this case, no.

    The entire project depends on Wine, imagine if Wine devs restricted Bottles in what way they are allowed to use it just because Wine project doesn't want to deal with bugs potentially introduced by the Bottles dev.

    But they won't, because of the license.And neither can the Bottles devs.

    If they want to have total control over their source code, fine, but then they cannot claim to be open-source and release it under GPL.

  • OpenSUSE package maintainer removes Bottles’ donation button with "dont-support.patch" file

    Jump

  • It's kinda shitty, but after reading the other links in the post I can't say it's very surprising.

    Bottles devs seem weirdly hostile to the idea of anyone repackaging their software, because apparently they're the only ones that are able to do it properly.

    edit: devs also refuse bug reports from any version that's not Flatpak, so in this context removing the button doesn't seem that unreasonable.

    edit2: now that I've had a closer look at the PR mentioned in the post I'm not surprised at all.Bottles devs are actively hostile. Apparently with this PR it's impossible to run Bottles outside Flatpak without the package maintainers patching the code.
