Subatomic particles act in insane ways that are absolutely not mechanical or predictible. A very limited size of object behaves “normally”. I think believing that the universe mostly acts like our everyday objects is the skewed perspective.

They sold laptops with this feature at one time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5M0TwnkWUM&list=PLec1d3OBbZ8IBeFODHXLy0m0okuZhqJnT

The potential for distros optimized for specific tasks without needing to swap out entire kernels. A “gaming” focused scheduler probably looks different from a big data cruncher or a super multi-tasker server.

I trade finding bugs for treats. Cat tracks and alerts, I catch or kill, and cat gets a snack. Everyone wins and no one gets bitten, stung, or weird parasites.

What’s funny is right at launch I would have seriously considered upgrading, but I’m on second gen Ryzen and that platform was deemed not new enough at the time. Now they’ve added a bunch of BS and even though I think they’ve removed the restriction I’m over the new shiny thing and am looking heavily into a full linux setup.

Import tariffs and service bans are definitely pretty wonky with dubious benefits, but I can understand the export concerns. Exporting tech that can be used in weapons directly to a country that is threatening a highly strategic ally (Taiwan) is a bad move. Yes they’ll get them elsewhere or make them, but you won’t have the US government and a US company directly profiting off the destruction of an ally.

Yep Lemmy uses SMTP and in my experience most self-hostable platforms do as well. You can see in the Lemmy config documents how it gets set up: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/configuration.html.

Made with Gtk4, WebKitGTK, libadwaita and Flatpak.

WebKit based, which is interesting. I don’t have much experience with WebKit on Linux.

This is legal vs rude. It certainly is legal and was in the terms of service for them to use the data in any way they see fit. But, also it’s rude to bait and switch from being a message board to being an AI data source company. Users we led to believe they were entering into an agreement with one type of company and are now in an agreement with a totally different one.

You can smugly tell people they shouldn’t have made that decision 15 years ago when they started, but a little empathy is also cool.

Additionally: When you owe your entire existence and value to user goodwill it might not be a great idea to be rude to them.

I can only really speak to reddit, but I think this applies to all of the user generated content websites. The original premise, that everyone agreed to, was the site provides a space and some tools and users provide content to fill it. As information gets added, it becomes a valuable resource for everyone. Ads and other revenue streams become a necessary evil in all this, but overall directly support the core use case.

Now that content is being packaged into large language models to be either put behind a paywall or packed into other non-freely available services. Since they no longer seem interested in supporting the model we all agreed on, I see no reason to continue adding value and since they provided tools to remove content I may as well use them.

However, if butter is left out at room temperature for several days, the flavor can turn rancid so it’s best to leave out whatever you can use within a day or two.

Prostetics have gotten extremely advanced in the last 20 years. People are controlling and getting real feedback from replacement limbs.

Are you shilling your product in a software gore community? That truly is gore, excellent post by accident.

You misread. They mean a thicker layer of polymerized oils building up would produce a “cast iron pan” effect on the granite. A layer reminiscent of what people try to achieve on well seasoned cast iron.

The goal posts of … respecting basic copyright?

There are diminishing returns but I can absolutely tell the difference between my 165Hz display and my wife’s 240Hz.

I can only speak to what’s expected in the US.

For personal info you should include your full legal name, a contact phone number, email, and possibly a link to a portfolio of some kind if that’s expected in your industry (arts, software, design, etc.). No need to put a birth date or any more personal info. If you’re applying to work in another country, I would indicate your nationality and what visas you might have or need to be sponsored for.

For education, just put the institution, degree, field of study, location, and dates. You can include degree honors there if you have any. Once you have an undergrad degree of some kind, you can remove your high school unless its particularly prestigious.

After that it should primarily be a list of any work experience, notable projects, skills, and honors/awards.

From my subscriptions:

Prozd Plays Games is a great let’s play style channel. He’s a voice actor and pretty funny.

NileRed is a chemistry madman who does very interesting experiments.

Technology Connections does deep dives into all sorts of household technologies: dishwashers, heat pumps, electric cars. He also dabbles in film photography, pinball machines, and other stuff I’m definitely forgetting.

Practical Engineering is a very high quality educational channel on civil engineering. Lately he’s even started going to work sites and filming projects as they go.

Folding ideas does very well researched video essays. His flat earth video a couple years ago really took off but basically everything he puts out is incredibly interesting.

Tom Stanton doesn’t upload much but he does model airplane and custom ebike content mostly.

Jenny Nicholson uploads once or twice a year now with theme park and weird media video essays.

Is it actually changing your display brightness or is it just doing a visual overlay like flux?

The section about “regular language” is the reason. That’s not being cheeky, that’s a technical term. It immediately dives into some complex set theory stuff but that’s the place to start understanding.
