You’ve never been to rural Japan if you think they primarily use public transport.

Hell, even in the outskirts of Tokyo most people have cars and drive.

That said tho, there’s no excuse for urban city centers to not be walkable.

So far it’s helped in motivation, but not in implementation.

Turns out combatting bots is a hard problem and hobbyist admins and nonprofits have a lot less resources than their for-profit counterparts.

Just now. I was reading this thread and grinning at other people’s misfortune so my wife decided I should join them and bit me 😵

It’s dead. The main dev announced they’ve ceased development and shut down the main instance.

Nah CEOs will mandate RTO for workers while they themselves stay remote.

I don’t know if that’s true anymore. There are games on there that require login into PSN after installing.

Ka…booom!

Because chrome doesn’t make any money

Did you even say no homo first?

What is gay underwear? Like a specific brand?

A long time ago he did useful things before the brain rot set in.

Just because someone is a twat now doesn’t mean we should erase all their past achievements.

As someone who’s currently wrangling with so much C++ specific issues to try and make just one bloody contribution to KDE, this comment hits too close to home.

Some stores require you to use the app for order pickup.

Sounds like a store to avoid like the plague.

You have a link handy?

You can just run yay with no arguments and it does exactly what your update script does.

Pity. I would kind of like to know what the scam website is.

Their reasoning was that X11 network transparency had been broken for quite some time. If you tried running chrome, most games, or anything with modern hardware acceleration over X11 forwarding, they wouldn’t work.

So, IMHO waypipe is actually an improvement in terms of compatibility, rather than a regression.

So, before the invention of the camera, the most valuable and most popular creative skill was replicating people on canvas as realistically as possible. Yes, we remember famous exceptions like Picasso, but by sheer number of paintings the most common were portraits of rich people.

After the cameras took that job away, prevailing art changed to become more abstract and “creative”. But that still pissed off a lot of people that had spent a very long time honing a skill that was now no longer in demand.

What we’re seeing is a similar shift. I think future generations of artists will value color theory, composition, etc. over specific brush stroke techniques. AI will make art much more accessible once enough time has passed for AI assisted art to be considered art. Make no mistake: it will always be people that actually create the art - AI will just reduce/remove the grunt work so they can focus more on creativity.

Now, whether billion dollar corporations deserve to exploit the labor of millions of people is a whole separate conversation, but tl;dr: they don’t, but they’re going to anyway because there is little to stop them in correct economic/governance models.

False.

I work for Microsoft and I can assure you that any effort I make to increase code quality or reduce jank (or pretty much anything other than shoving more AI in our products) will not positively impact my bonus next year.

IIRC it wasn’t legal action from Nvidia, but rather AMD pulling the funding that killed ZLUDA.
